This is not a test!!!!


Hola Mi Platinum Silhouettes,

Oh how I've missed you! So my first question is(drum roll please).......... What's new? Ah!lets just cut to the chase, How are those new years resolutions coming along? Are we hitting our goals left and right or are we throwing in the "I got this next year" towel? I'll admit that I've fell off the wagon once or twice, but that's okay because I'm only human. I'll also be the first to admit that I don't feel my greatest when I'm not in top peak physical shape. Were not getting any younger my loves, and my aching knees prove that age wears on ya! This is not a test! I repeat, this is not a test! I don't want to wait to see what ever else falls off or starts aching. I need to strap on my running sneaks, put on my good sweats, and get in that gym BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY. I'm only in my 20's and I felt the effect of the aging process. Its no joke! My physical therapy days are far behind me and the only therapy I need is Gym therapy. If you feel like your lacking in motivation here are a few tips to get you motivated:

1. Instead of hitting the weights that day, try a dance class (i.e Zumba)

2. Get a friend to motivate you to get your butt off that couch!

3. Link up with a running group (most cities have local running groups.. Lululemon, City sports, Etc.)

4. Join a local team for exercise and meet other active people (kickball, roller derby, aerial sports and dodge ball)

5.Buy new work out clothes, that always motivates me to get my sweat on :)

And when all else fails, know that I'm watching you!

See you in the gym,
Alicia Nura
