Redefining My Rhythm

Hi,

How's everything going for you? Well, things are going great on my end. I've actually shaken up my exercise routine this past week, and I'm really digging it so far! After a few years of trusty elliptical running, I figured it was time for a little tweak.

My daily mission is to hit 10,000 steps OR 30 minutes of exercise. If I nail either of those, I count it as a win for the day. Hitting 10K steps is a breeze if I'm on my feet all day at work. But if it's a chill day, I usually reach out around 5K-6K steps only. I know myself, I'll be frustrated if I don't hit my daily goal.

So, to make sure I always hit my mark, I've got a system. I've integrated it so thoroughly that I feel incomplete without its regular cycle. 30 minutes of running at home gets me a solid 3,000 steps, and then I will do a happy little dance with the vacuum cleaner to grab that final 1,000. By 10 PM, I can kick back, gaze at the stars, and know my 10K steps are officially conquered! Then I can finally call it a day.

Lately though, my body was getting a little too comfortable with the routine. How do I know? My heart rate barely hit 140 bpm anymore. So, I've spiced things up with 15-20 minutes of dedicated cardio, and boom! My heart rate easily jumps to 150 bpm. Though, I bet you could beat that by just making me nervous! 😉

All in all, I'm super happy with this new routine. Hopefully, in three months, I'll not only be healthier but also have a flatter "mommy's pouch"! Haha, let's be real, that's the real goal. Defining my own body, one step (and vacuum session!) at a time. My motivation? That electrifying feeling you get from Like Jennie official live performance video. 

Watch from 1:45 to the end. She absolutely crushed it! What a performance.
