Hey guys! Happy Indian Food Wednesday! Who’s celebrating?? *Raises roti in the air* You know I am

Thank you so much for the awesome feedback on the Booty Sculpting reader’s request post. Send any reader’s request ideas my way: fitnessista at gmail dot com

So have you heard about the new Beachbody program?

Looks like SO much fun!

Here’s the conversation I had with the pilot last night about it.

Me: So… they have a new Beachbody program……

Pilot: Oh yeah?

Me: Yeah. It’s called TurboFire.

Pilot [starts cracking up]: Wait, TurboFire??? Hahahaha. So Beachbody just puts two words that sound crazy together. Infinity Blast? Lightning Race? Solar Ignition?

Me (laughing): You’re a funny guy. It’s kind of like Insanity but with that blonde girl teaching it… and it looks like some booty shaking is involved. Should I go for it?

Pilot: Yeah, go for it.

It may or may not be on the way I’m excited to add some new cardio to my routine and will post reviews for ya’ll. As you all know, I was ridiculously in love with Insanity, so this will help fill the void a little

I can already tell you that Shaun T. is a thousand times more fun to look at than Chalene.

Shaun, I still miss your motivation, your abs and your man tights

It’s good to change things up frequently and TurboFire will help shake things up a little.

Some recent eats:

Leftover Snobby Joes

Steamed sweet potatoes

I used the electric steamer that I bought for tamale-making purposes:

And went steam-crazy by steaming some shrimp and veggies:

Along with some mung bean pasta, drizzled with Garlic Gold vinaigrette

Perfection.

This morning’s bfast:

Classic oats with strawberries, banana, the sad amount of Sun Warrior I have left, maca and cacao nibs

 

and two egg whites smothered with apricot jam:

 

Glorious.

Here’s the plan for the day:

-Iron pumping (legs and abs)

-Teach bootcamp (total body sculpt)

-Haircut

-Indian buffet!

-Clean and blog

-Work

I’m out like sauerkraut.

xoxo,

Something to talk about: Do you use High Intensity Interval Training in your routine? How do you HIIT?? My favorite is 1 minute of recovery, 30 seconds of sprinting, repeat. I’m a huge HIIT advocate It’s a great way to see quick results, blast fat, and get an effective workout in less time.

Something else to talk about: Who saw Eclipse last night?!?! I can’t wait to see it!!!
