Revolt Fitness

Howdy everyone! Hope everyones week is going well. I just finished my workout with G at the gym. We were there for almost 2 hours. The place was just a gong show. I had a whole different plan written for today, but due to the lack of open space, I was not able to do it. I just did G’s tricep and chest workout as we can share the bench/machines. I finished strong though and thats what matters!!

This Saturday I ran in the Color me Rad 5k and it was a BLAST! SOO much fun. I think it’s probably the best type of run for a first timmer. I went with a group of friends. Check out our day 🙂

On our way to the race in stalled traffic! So many people attended that they extended it TWO days!!

Alright, time to watch some of my “shows” before bed. Day was a long one with the extended gym session. But before I go I want to announce the winner of my North Coast Naturals protein giveaway!! It was wonderful to see all the Canadian LOVE 😀

The winner is……

Oh and Saturday I also finished my 12 weeks of Revolt Fitness. I will be doing a big write up on the whole program and how I feel about it! STAY TUNED FOLKS!!

Question: Do you HATE when the gym is super busy too? I love seeing so many people workout……but I still get frustrated 🙁

This post was meant for Friday, however my site is currently changing hosting providers and I had some technical difficulties. So the site was up and down and not posting. ACK. It appears to be all up and running again!! Thank goodness!!

Now that is all behind us(I hope), let’s talk about some fitness. I have continued doing Revolt Fitness, but also have upped my gym time. I love Revolt Fitness and even after my 12 weeks, I will continue to use it. That being said, I have now started to go to the gym regularly again. I always went before, but I have definitely logged in way more hours as of late. Working out with the hubby makes me bring up my game! My 30th birthday is looming right around the corner (3.5 weeks) and I have this determination to be at my best for it. Whatever motivates you, run with it!

Recently I introduced a protein mug cake recipe to the hubby, since then……. HE IS ALWAYS REQUESTING IT! It has taken many versions and many freak outs…..but I think I might just have figured it out. I also had some help with some really great protein. Those of you that have read my blog and followed my strife with trying to find a happy medium with the hubbys allergies know that I can’t just go and use any protein in his diet. It has to be lactose free & gluten free. The poor man can’t really have much that comes out of a package anymore. And let’s all be honest, that isn’t a bad thing, just more work for me 🙂 So when North Coasts Naturals contacted me to try out some of their products, I was more than ready to give these a try. We’ve tried several natural proteins and have found some pretty good ones, but this one tops the cake for the hubby. He LOVES it! He says it breaks down perfectly in his blender cup, no chalky taste and has no tummy reactions from it. YAY!! Oh and I forgot to mention that it’s a Canadian company!!!! Is it possible to love them anymore?
