Sneaks for me, sneaks for youuuuu
The stairs and I are not friends today.
Spinning gets me EVERY time! So good.
Since the Pilot was home yesterday, I was able to take a daytime class, so I went into work for 10 minutes of weights and 45-minute spin. My friend Katie taught, and her playlist was amazing. I especially love the features on our new spin bikes with wattage (how much power you’re exerting), RPM (revolutions per minute) and stage feature, so you can time yourself for certain distances during the workout. It made me work a lot harder than I usually would have since we had numbers to focus on.
After spin, I came home and we all went out for a little family dinner at Eclectic.
Meet the enchilada salad. Enchiladas topped with iceberg lettuce, grilled, spicy chicken, avocado, corn chip crispies and cheese = basically a platter of everything that’s good in the world.

So I’ve been meaning to tell you guys about the new kicks that Reebok sent me. I was definitely ready for some new teaching sneaks and was so excited when I opened the door to find a package with 3 pairs. One for Zumba, one for my other classes, and one for when I’m feeling a little wild ๐
The Zumba high tops are by far my favorite. The color isn’t too bright (but still something different and fun), and every time I wear them, I’ll get a ton of compliments and inquiries about where to buy them. They have a pivot point (awesome for salsa turns) and high support for the lateral movements.
For DJ dance and my strength/bootcamp classes, I’ve been wearing these purple sneaks. They’re super lightweight and comfortable- perfect for cross training.
I still haven’t tested out the yellow ones, but think they’ll be perfect for Aqua Zumba. (I’m getting certified in a couple of months and can’t wait!! I’ll actually like teaching pool classes now haha.)
Reebok also sent me this turquoise tank:
(it’s a soft tech material- awesome for Tucson heat), and these pants, which were a little too big. I love the style and fabric, but would definitely go a size down on these ones if you check them out.
Since I was so obsessed with the high tops, I emailed Reebok to see if they might be able to offer a giveaway for you guys. They offered not one pair, but THREE!
3 lucky readers will receive the Dance Ur Lead Mid shoes in a size of their choice.

Today I’m actually going to do some lifting. Getting ready to take my lunch break and get my sweat on in a minute ๐
How colorful!!! Today I am taking the dog to the dog park and may chase him around for a while.
I had to take last night off from the gym because I was still so sore from this weekend’s workout! I just tried my first ever Zumba class this weekend and LOVED it. I have always been a dancer and have missed it so much. Zumba was the perfect release! Those shoes would be amazing for this new and exciting form of exercise I have discovered!!!
glorious off day—walking around the marina where I live!
Spending my off day reading some good books! Starting with, ‘tell the wolves im home’
I’ll be spending time with my 5-year old son! Long time fan of yours via your blog and Facebook xx
I am walking around campus today to all of my classes! Definitely a work out indeed! Haha! (:
Of course I already like you on Facebook! =)
Spending my off day with some restorative yoga!
I liked Fitnessista on Facebook!!! (:
I’ll be running errands!
Spending today updating the blog ๐
I had to reschedule my workouts to fil in the Shape-up, and since I won’t be able to workout tomorrow, I’m running today =D
Liked on Facebook! I can’t believe I haven’t “liked” your blog before this XD
Happy today’s an off day, since I have a bunch of appointments and errands. But I really liked workout #4, so I’m excited to hit it again tomorrow!
I am spending my off day with a deep stretch class at my gym, it will help with the soreness from all the great workouts!
Those shoes are rad! We have a joint birthday party at our house this coming weekend, so I’m spending my off day blasting music while cleaning my apartment/dancing. I’m a fan of you on facebook!
today I have day off, ๐
After yesterday’s three minute plank, I feel like someone has kicked me in the ribs (in the good way? Haha!) I’m going to make today an active rest day and do an easy spin on the elliptical!
I actually worked out today even though it’s an off day. Just a little interval work on the elliptical. But, my son’s first birthday is this week so with my crazy busy schedule I’ve got to squeeze in workouts when I can!
I just started week 2 off the shape up and will be doing the workout plus HIIT (on the treadmill because I’m scared of jumping rope. Yes, scared, I’m likely to trip and fall on my face).
Then I’m off school where I’m in my last semester of before I get my BSN! Wooo!
I already like you on facebook, duh!
I ran this morning and have some toning moves planned so it isn’t really an off day for me ๐ I went to water aerobics last night and loved being back in the water. Man, if they had Aqua Zumba near me, I would sooooo totally do it. I will have to look into that. . . .
Long walk outside with the dog!
I like you on facebook under sonia OP and the Mexigarian ๐
Just finished a little arm workout + cardio. Nothing killer, just recovering from yesterday’s beastly workout.
I am a long-time facebook fan!

I’ll be spending today walking my two little pups! And even some yoga :))
Love those shoes! This week is crazy at work for me but I did get in a great run yesterday and will do some HIIT tomorrow
I am going for a walk on my lunch break, it been raining lately and I need some vitamin D.
Going to go for a nice walk today and take advantage of the warmish weather! These shoes are so fierce – would love to win them!
Took Sunday as my off day so today I did 45 minutes of Just Dance. Felt stupid but since it’s raining out, it was a good way to get my cardio in.
My work-out tonight is WERQ. Have you heard of it? I think you’d love it. It’s incredibly similar to Zumba, but to pop/rap/hip-hop music. It’s so much fun.
I actually had a big workout day today; first turbokick and then Tracey Anderson Mat workout. Love the sneaks and the blog! ๐
I just liked you on facebook too – can’t believe I hadn’t before!
I am a facebook fan too
Already a Facebook fan! ๐ Sooo excited for this giveaway, SUCH cute shoes!
For today being an off day, I am keeping it very light today. Big snowstorm this morning so I might get out to walk the dogs if possible, but if not, I will enjoy the rest day. ๐
Liked on Facebook! I have been a fan and following you for over a year. I LOVE your blog!!!! <3
Love the new reebok sneakers! So bright and fun. Perfect for Zumba!
Already a fan on facebook, I love going to Zumba and am actually in the process of finding new sneakers, this would be perfect!!
Like you on facebook already!
I took my off day yesterday so for me it was workout #4 + a Interval Challenge:) Im burning!
I’m doing workout #4 today since I missed yesterday
I already like you on fb! and I LOVE the zumba high tops! I’d like to rock them with my scrubs for clinicals ๐
Today is an off day for me since I’m trying to kick a sore throat, but I have loved all of your winter shape up workouts!
I like you on FB! Cute shoes!
I will be filling up on a green smoothie and doing some light ab work tonight!
I have a ton of studying to do today!
