Tools You Need to Make Working Out at Home Successful

Blog

After having my baby, I needed something to get me up and moving. I was completely exhausted and needed something to make myself feel good. After pregnancy, our bodies go through so many changes emotionally and physically. After searching all over the internet and asking around, I finally found a company that provides workouts for moms and babies.

During these workouts, you can bring your little one while you get in a good workout session. I started with yoga and baby classes even though I had never done yoga in my life. It has been such a fun learning experience and something I look forward to doing every single week. Once I started to get more energy and got into a better routine of taking care of baby, I’ve added mommy and me fitness classes to my weekly schedule. I absolutely hate having to wake up at the crack of dawn to get me and my baby out the door but it’s so good for the both of us.

To keep motivated throughout the week, I’ve bought a few tools on Amazon that allows me to workout at home without my instructor pushing me to do so. I’ll find activities on pinterest or my trainer will text me good workouts to do around the house. It’s amazing how great of a workout you could get by just staying at home and using simple tools.

I’ve made a list of some of the items that can be purchased online to help you get back in the swing of working out at home. These items are all fairly cheap and can be used in so many ways. I use my yoga mat almost daily to either get some stretching in or to do a few poses to get my day started.

Working out doesn’t have to be at a gym. It can be as simple or as complex as you make it. The only thing that matters is that you start! Starting is the hardest thing to do but once you get in the habit of working out, it becomes a breeze.

One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesse One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesses adapting and making things work! I was recently introduced to @savageburritos and I'm in love.  Savage Burritos is the love child of Uncle Julios so it you like UJ, you'll love Savage.  They are a delivery only service offering burritos and bowls from select Uncle Julio kitchens in DFW. We ordered a variety of items from burritos, bowls, queso and more. Every single item was bursting with flavor. If you like spicy,  I highly recommend the Nashville Hot Chicken Burrito. 🔥 Don't forget to add on a Margarita pop - nothing beats alcohol and Mexican food delivered straight to your door!

Order directly from their site your from your favorite delivery service!
I know this year has dragged on and on for many pe I know this year has dragged on and on for many people but it has flown by to me. I'm 100% sure it has something to do with welcoming Myles into this world during the height of a pandemic and keeping a toddler alive at the same time.  I can't wait for Christmas morning to make memories with my little family (even though Christmas shopping isn't complete and I haven't even thought about wrapping presents). It will all fall in to place, it always does. We didn't attend our favorite Christmas events this year or get pictures with Santa so this random Santa picture will do and I'm 100% happy with it.  If this year has taught you anything,  let it be finding the joy in the little things ❤
The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Althoug The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Although things might be a bit different this season, we're still enjoying some of our favorite foods and traditions. This year we're incorporating ordering family meal kits from @chuysrestaurant for not only my family but extended family that we might not be able to hang with this holiday.  It's a simple way to spread the joy with loved ones, eat delicious food and not forget the reason for the season.  #ad #nachoaverageholiday
Family pictures are always so much fun.... this ye Family pictures are always so much fun.... this year we got to attempt it twice thanks to sweet Bryce.  Thankfully the second time around he cooperated. As painful as they may be,  I'm so glad we get these done every year. I love looking back at them and see how much we've all changed and how much the kids have grown!
Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We got our family pictures back and they look great other than the fact that Bryce decided not to participate. We got one shot with my entire family and Bryce is off to the side playing in poison ivy. 🤦‍♀️

I wanted to send a quick thank you for all the birthday love yesterday! Birthdays are not my favorite day but it was nice to hear from so many people. Here's to another year around the sun ❤
This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city r This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city ran completely by kids. Your child gets to fully immerse themselves into role playing any job they can imagine. From checking animals at the veterinarian, putting out fires as a firefighter,  flying planes in an simulator, creating their own personal logo with Bic, or being a weatherman at WFAA - the options are endless! Kidzania activities are for ages 4 and up.

We felt very comfortable inside with their safety protocols. Temperatures were checked before entering.  Everybody ages 4 and up must wear a mask.  Hand sanitizer was readily available throughout the entire space.  If you're looking for a fun outlet for your child to explore, check it out!
