Week 3: Core De Force

Good Afternoon! Happy Wednesday Everyone! It is a gray day here on Cape Cod but the sun is trying to come out...getting a bit brighter out. I don't know about you...but I can't wait until the really nice warm weather gets here.

I have had several questions about how Week 3  & 4 went for me...so let me share!

In week three I felt more focused and confident... which helped me get through some of the double workouts you will encounter during the week. The intensity level is bumped up a bit more too. Drinking my Energize helped me push through.

I tried to keep my nutrition on point but there were a few times that I made some not so great choices. I was frustrated with myself because I knew I was making that choice...but I put it behind me and moved on with a new focus. The healthy choices I make on a daily basis far outweigh my bad choices....so I have to give myself a little break every now and again...keeping in mind that everything is within moderation.

There were times that I didn't want to press play...on the days that doubled up for example...but I did. I tried very hard not to come up with reasons why I could not get it done. I used my vision board for inspiration. Keeping my eye on what my goals are always helps me get through the toughest of days. Even on the days were I am energized and ready to go...it helps to keep me on track and reminds me of why I am working so hard.

So let's take a look at what Week 3 is like!

Sunday:

As I mentioned above...drinking my Energize, one of the Beachbody Performance Line products, helped me get through the increased intensity level this week. You will burn serious calories and fat as you go! I never finish a workout dry...I am always sweating up a storm!!! Have a towel near by when your doing these workouts!!!

And if in week three you find yourself hungrier than you were before...no worries...remember that you get an additional fruit (purple) and healthy fat (blue) this week to help out!

Drinking my daily Shakeology always keeps me going. The daily dose of dense nutrition I have everyday is delicious  (love my chocolate) and it gives me all the nutrients I need to live a healthy life. What could be better than that!!!

On to Week 4!!!
