I let my mom convince me to hit
the Joe Louis Arena steps with her and a group of ladies at 7:30am on a
Saturday. I can’t believe I agreed to it but she didn’t even have to do much
convincing after she offered to treat me to a (healthy) breakfast after each
workout. Since I had been getting little reminders all day about how much I’ve
been slacking on my workouts, and with my 24th birthday just four
months away, and plans for two trips out of the country next year, I figured I shouldn’t
pass up any opportunities to get a jump start on my 2016 beach body… or a free
breakfast.
I’ll admit, I AM SO OUT OF
SHAPE!!!! I went from running two miles a day to struggling through a 10-minute
jog. Every now and again I went to the gym but I was inconsistent and I let
myself get extremely lazy. Beginning this Saturday work out regiment at the Joe
Steps will be a test of my will for a couple of reasons: one—I am NOT a morning
person. I’d much rather workout in the evenings but I’m striving to achieve a
new level of discipline and changing my habits is one of the first steps. The
early bird gets the worm, right? Two—I haven’t been working out consistently
and shaking off laziness is a hard thing to do, but my plan is to turn on my
headphones, zone out and push through. Mind over matter!
I want to show you guys my progress
