I’m often asked what I do towards having my active lifestyle, so here it is
1) I Run
For me running is my thing, it’s my ‘down-time’ where I can just have ‘ME’ time. I will run when I’m happy, I will run when I’m sad, I will run when I’m angry, even when I’m mad. I always run for me. Now when I mean run, I mean actually foot to pavement or ground, not a treadmill. There is just something about being outdoors that I come alive. I’m absolutely useless running on a treadmill. Personal preference.
2) I Lift
Yes girls I do weights at gym and NO I am not ripped like an action man doll (myth: BUSTED). I want muscle, I want to be strong. My normal gym routine includes: Squats, Bench, Deadlift, Over-Head-Press, Lateral Raises, Bend-Over-Rows and Curls.
You are a tank of a woman Jess! Such an inspiration! One day I’ll get there!
Thank-you Alex!
It is ridiculous how many girls think lifting will make them automatically bulk up!
Exactly Tara! It’s crazy.
