Hi Everyone!

Welcome to Day 11 of my #30DayWorkoutChallenge. Today we are focused on strengthening our arms, and burning fat at the same time. This workout uses many compound exercises, so event though we are focusing on arms you will still get in a full body workout.

Yesterday was a Core Workout Day. Don’t forget, the weekly schedule is posted, so if you fall behind or get ahead you can still see what workouts are scheduled each day. I have seen so many great check in posts and comments. Keep up the good work! You guys are doing an amazing job of sticking to the challenge. If you miss a day (or need an extra rest day) don’t let that throw you off! You can still get back into the schedule. Consistency=Results.

I won’t be getting in my Arm workout until later tonight, but I will make it happen. Since starting this challenge I am feeling so much stronger, and I am having less lower back pain. I am also consistently doing my Split Stretching Routine: Stretches to Improve Flexibility for Splits. I don’t feel like I am making much progress with getting my flexibility back, but I know that through consistency I will start to notice change.

Results are gradual, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t happening. When you continue to make healthy choices you will start to see progress. A healthy lifestyle isn’t just a catch phrase, or a description. It is the result of a series of actions and choices you make. It’s about finding balance in the physical, mental, emotional and social aspects of your life.

You are guaranteed to live your life in your body. Take care of it, respect it and honor it. Fuel yourself with nutrients. Strengthen yourself with exercise. Stay flexible with stretching. Let yourself heal and rejuvenate during rest and sleep. Don’t let the physical consume you. We experience more joy in life when we have a balance between the physical, mental, social and emotional aspects of our lives.

Enjoy today’s workout! Check in and let me know how you are feeling so far!
