Quartine workouts 1 - Full Body + Abs + Legs + Arms
As many of you know I love working out and it is a big hobby and stress reliever of mine! To set it straight, I am not a personal trainer or fitness coach or anything like that. I have learned many workouts throughout my soccer playing days and have found good workouts through different fitness classes I’ve done. The past year I have used and loved the SWEAT app. It gives easy and hard type workouts depending on your level of fitness. I like to use it because I just pull up the app to my workout plan and the workout is set and ready for me to start…all I have to do is follow it! I like to share workouts with you because it is such a passion of mine and has helped me become healthier mentally/ physically. So if even just ONE of you does a workout of mine or a couple exercises off my site, then that makes it worth video taping these vids for you:) You can email my blog email or DM me with any questions or any other workout type videos you’d like to see.
I hope you all are staying healthy, and most importantly sane during this crazy time. My anxiety levels have definitely spiked. Being in a house with the same people (especially when everyone wants mOm) and doing the same things daily has taken a toll on me. I know this pandemic has been incredibly hard for so many and most are struggling in some capacity. Working out is my “me time”…even though my two boys, especially Asher wants mom 24/7 lately and shows up most days half way through my workout. My husband does a great job of trying to keep them contained from me for an hour or so a day, which has helped my mood:) I recommend trying to get some “me time” (whatever that may be) throughout the days…even if it’s just to breath alone for a few minutes. When I feel my stress or anxiety getting high I let Adam know and I try and leave the room to get a breather...it helps! During these weeks we have to try and keep our bodies moving throughout the day, drink lots of water, and eat healthy. I don’t know about you but night snacking has been my weakness! Once the kids are down my emotional/stress/boredom eating comes out. I just want to relax, eat my candy stash, and watch a good show till I pass out. In the next few weeks when I want a night snack I’m really going to work on grabbing an apple, an energy ball, or something healthier before bed. Try and work on it with me if you struggle with this too:)
