Letters For Lucas

Wonders, Mishaps, Blunders and Joy.. commentary on my life as a mom in the form of letters to my son

Comments

  1. I think you shared some really good tips, Tonya!

    My tip would be: take a break. Don’t go all insane and work out everyday. Recovery is just as important in between workouts.

    Also, change the pace of workouts. Do intense, then something a little lighter, during the same routine and alternate days.

    That really worked for me!

    • Both excellent tips!! You never want to over do it or get bored… that’s the kiss of death!

  2. I am so glad you did this prompt. I know you love working out and have always wanted to pick your brain on things that work for you. I couldn’t agree more about the sports bra. One that doesn’t fit right or is all stretched out? Workout fail. You’ve also reminded me to switch my playlist around since it’s been a while. Thanks!

    Thanks for linking up with us this week!

    • Thank you, it was fun. I have lots more tips, if you ever have a specific question, shoot me an e-mail. 🙂 It’s hard to find time to workout with kids but it can be done!

  3. Great tips, Tonya! I am guilty of not showering right away – bad, bad, and I hear you. I shall try to do better there. I also like the idea of scheduling workouts with friends. We make plans but they are never firm, and I typically end up going by myself. Need to work on that too!

    • Thanks, Galit. I love working out, so this was easy. Well, coming up with the tips was easy, the filming… I’m still struggling with.

  5. Great tips Tonya. Now I know why I got a bladder infection right before my marathon last June — I’m a dirty dog who doesn’t shower right away! I try, but man I squeeze in the workout when I can. I figure no one sees the bacne, but I don’t want to risk the bladder infection again, ick.

    Loved your tips and totally agree with making appointments with others. I try to schedule a run at least once a week with someone else to keep myself accountable.

    • Bladder infections suck!! Especially when they turn into kidney infections.

      Oh, and bache is no fun either.

  6. These are all fabulous tips! I couldn’t agree more with be comfortable in what you’re wearing. There have been times where I felt my workout t-shirts were too tight and then I felt uncomfortable and cut my workout short. Also, the music tip is so key. I can’t workout without my iPod.

    • Thanks, Elena. This was a good prompt for me. 🙂

      Like I said, music makes EVERYTHING better.

  10. A workout partner is what I need to find. It would help me stay motivated. Also I think it’s time to create a playlist for my workout.
