LISA IN MOTION: Motivational Tips to Get Your Morning Workout Done
My friend Danielle inspired a quick post on self-motivation. You know that horrible inner monologue you face when the early alarm goes off. The battle you have with self over the pros and cons of getting up and getting it DONE. I used to lose that battle quite often, opting for an evening…

May (fitness) Goalz
Starting out the month strong…not. Too sick to risk exercising and getting sicker.
Hokay…but I can still have May gizoals since I have every intention of being better by this weekend. Here dey go…
1) Plank Challenge -inspired by earlier reblog
- Plank exercise MWThF and Sundays (or whatever day I do my long run) -note the Tuesdays are NOT included- that’s my ultimate rest day for everythaaang
- Planks will increase by 15 seconds each day- today I will start (despite the sicky part…whatever) with as long as I can so I can actually get something out of this plank challenge
- Depending on how the first week goes- I might increase the time increases for each day (ie 30 sec increase instead of 15) and/or may lessen days
- Ultimate plank goal: 6 minutes. Let’s get it.
2) Finish Marion half marathon in 2hrs 30 min (about 10.5mph)
3) Weight training!!!
- I have pretty much less than basic knowledge of weight lifting…but I really want to start because I want to tone up and get stronger!
- Soo…with this goal, I need another goal: LEARN the basics of weight training
4) Go to yoga class at least twice a week
5) Pilates class ONCE a week (at LEAST!)
6) Push-up Challenge —> similar to Plank Challenge
- Started yesterday (May 1st) with 20
- Goal is to increase by 5 on ODD numbered days…so just 20 today (phew/thankgod)
- Ultimate goal: 100?!?!?!?!?! (woahhh that seems hefty…after first week will need to figure out if realistic or not)
Overall—> Getting back into it; finals are over next week and I’ll have more time to have more motivation/ less excuses. Let’s gooooo, swimsuit season here I COME!
