This weekend was quite the killer. I was a busy busy girl, so obviously I didn't get much working out done. I managed to get one workout in on Saturday night. Though the workout was simple..... I still got off my butt and did something so that happens to be a great accomplishment. I'm sure it will be a devastating blow to hear, but most weekends it will be very hard for me to post consistently. The things I would have to say aren't that interesting anyways because I like to keep my weekends fairly moderate with the workout and fitness craze. This is good because whether you believe it or not, your body NEEDS a break every now and then. If you have been working out and eating great all week your body needs time to heal, and to build the muscle or repair the muscle you've been working so hard towards. Though the weekend is my break days, I try my hardest not to slack on my diet or healthy eating. If you know that you can control yourself it is safe to give yourself a small reward or treat for your hard work on the weekends. Don't blow your entire weekend, just have one cheat item. For example this weekend I endulged in one serving of coconut icecream becuase that is what I was craving and I knew that I could control myself to not overeat on crap.
Oh another thing is, get your sleep! Most days, like yesterday for me, when I don't have any motivation to work are caused because I haven't gotten a sufficient amount of zzzz's the night before. Honestly it's not even a good idea to even try to workout when your mind and body is chanting "SLEEP SLEEP SLEEP"! This may cause you to compromise your form, and you may end up hurting yourself. Though there are some great pick me ups that I sometimes use to boost my energy when I absolute need to get in a workout. I'll post some links to a few of the supplements that I live by.
