Last Insanity Workout before my Detox!

Working hard at my last workout before my detox! I had a headache so I didn’t feel like working out but I pushed through and I’m so glad I did because I felt great after. I did Insanity Pure Cardio and Cardio Abs. I never realized how much the main Insanity workouts workout your core until I tried to do Cardio Abs right after! Which workout are you doing today?


BTW the detox I am doing is the Beachbody Ultimate Reset which is a 21 day program/ diet to help you lose weight, have more energy, and just plain feel better! For more information click here:  http://myultimatereset.com/ulyssesfitness

Belated Sweaty Wednesday

I was too busy yesterday studying for finals to post my Sweaty Wednesday picture so here is a belated one! What did you do for your workout today? I did the secret weapon workout from Brazil Butt Lift for the first time…I loved it. My legs were on FIRE!

Sweaty Wednesday!

Sweaty Wednesday photo! Did you get your workout on today?!
Today I did my Cardio Recovery Insanity workout. Phew… only Insanity would have a “recovery” workout be that tough… but I feel great now!

Went to the gym today but forgot my workout shorts so I had to wear my scrub bottoms... you gotta do what you gotta do to get your burn on! (Taken with Instagram)

I'm just really happy with how my mentality has changed. About six months ago I would have looked in my bag, noticed the missing shorts, and went "oh darn, guess I can't workout today..." 


Today I did Insanity Pure Cardio, which is still the toughest workout for me! Not enough breaks! :) Would you like help on your fitness journey? "Like" my Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/UlyssesFitness or email me at ulyssesfitness@gmail.com and we'll get started! My help is always free! 

I promised to treat myself for finishing p90x so here is one of the dresses I got myself for becoming a p90x grad! I need to decide what I am going to get for finishing Insanity! What should I get myself?

Insanity at the Gym!

I wanted to try something new, so I decided to bring my Insanity DVD to the gym. I loved it! It was nice to have so much more space for jumping! Also, it was definitely the toughest workout I have ever had at that gym! It just reinforced why I do workout DVDs...because it pushes me harder than I can push myself on my own!

Insanity workout Day 2

I did the Fit Test yesterday (which was CRAZY BTW) which means today I did my first real Insanity workout! Plyo Circuit! It was really tough but Shaun T is a great motivator so I pushed through. And now I still feel amazing. MMM... runner's high! I'm going to sleep well tonight!
I can't wait to see my results from this program! I love it so far!
Did you enjoy your workout today?

Food Ideas Part 2

I feel like I have been struggling with my nutrition lately so I wanted to highlight some of the healthier choices I have made over the past couple of weeks to keep myself motivated and hopefully give others some inspiration for healthy choices. 

Beef Kabobs with peppers, onions and mushrooms

Spinach salad with green apple and tuna. Delicious! 

Chicken Kabobs with peppers, onions and mushrooms

                                     Pepper Stir Fry

                              Teriyaki Chicken Stir Fry

Homemade Pizza: Okay, I know pizza isn't the healthiest choice but I used turkey pepperoni and not very much cheese so it was a much healthier choice than delivery! 

Vegan Tropical Shakeology for lunch. Tastes great and gives me an amazing amount of nutrients. No idea what Shakeology is? Ask at ulyssesfitness@gmail.com or see my previous post here

Toast with PB2: Love this stuff! It tastes the same to me, but with a significant calorie reduction and 85% less fat! 

Some nights I just want everything and I want it all on my plate. I'm weird I know. :) Baked potatoes with homemade chili, broccoli, tomatoes, and cheese. 


If you would like to know how to make any of these items please email me at ulyssesfitness@gmail.com and maybe I will get motivated to post the recipe. :)  Please email that address if you would like FREE help on your health/ fitness journey.
