 Why Why Why
  • With New Years around the corner I didn't want to give you guys anything new
  • What's better than picking your own challenge???
Materials
Just yourself 

Directions
Complete your favorite exercise everyday this week
Try to stay in the range of 8-12 reps 3-4 sets
My favorite exercise was featured on 8/4/14
Standing Running Mans
I introduced them to all of you while vacationing in Costa Rica
Not only do they challenge my balance they also work my upper and lower body
I'm usually shaking by the end of my first set


Place all weight on the right side of your body. Lift your right leg hip height raising your left hand to an 90 degree angle pointed up, right hand in a 90 degree angle pointed down.  


**This is a advanced exercise! hold on to something sturdy when trying this

My Take
I love this exercise for many many reasons. There are no suddent movements that can be hard on tendons and joints, it challenges your balance and endurance. Last and certainly not least this exercise tones your lower body which is a must for any routine I complete.

The drink more water challenge
at least 9-10 glasses everyday this week


My Take 
Water is a super drink in my book. When I drink the recommended amount of water my skin glows, I feel fuller longer and better about myself. This week I'm going to try to drink at least 9 glasses a day. Give me luck, I think I'm going to need it.

The laughing challenge

 I challenge you to laugh, play, and be more light hearted for the next 7 days 👻Life can be boring and tedious sometimes
👻Adding pleasurable, exciting, and enjoyable activities to your life makes you feel more accomplished and loved
👻The more you laugh the better you feel
👻Laughter is good for the soul
👻Laughter is an antidote to all your hard work

My Take
The way to my heart is through laughter. If you make me laugh I will can and will hold my attention. I'm also pretty silly and funny myself. There nothing better then a good chuckle after a long day. 

That's all I have for you guys today!
Peace & Love,
Mary
