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.

Already a fan on Facebook ๐ Would love to try these kicks out when I teach Zumba. Next week will mark one year of teaching Zumba for me and I love it. I teach at a corporate company’s gym and I try to wear bright crazy colors to teach since we are a pretty conservative company and it is the only time I can have fun and with my outfits and dancing with my ladies!!
Today was a 20 minute stretch and flow, which felt so good. I had a headache before starting and didn’t want to do anything at all, but the Winter Shape Up motivated me to stretch it out before settling in on the couch with the hubs for the night. Now, my headache is gone and I’m feeling so refreshed!
I’m also a Facebook fan!

My winter shape up off day was spent studying for midterms! Working out my brain! ๐

Spending my off day relaxing!
I took a rest day yesterday after bootcamp on Saturday and an 8 mile run on Sunday left me sore. I’m heading to the basement gym when I get off work in 30 min to do some elliptical and chest/back strength.

For the Winter Shape Up, today I dove into the pool and realized when I couldn’t breathe that it wasn’t heated and we’ve had a cold spell down here in Florida. So I took an actual rest day. Yikes!
My Winter Shape Up day was spent foam rolling, stretching and taking my dog on a longer walk!
Hot yoga!
I had to switch it up for this week of Winter Shape up so I did steady state cardio…..in the form of ZUMBA! Would love a pair of these sneaks for the next time I go ๐
I am already a fan of Fitnessista on FB!
Spent my day studying with a break for a little yoga thrown in there!

Following you on FB!
For my day off, I’m spending some quality time with my cat on the couch.
I have been just taking it easy, caught up on a bunch of little things I needed to get done, and now laying in my bed with my jack russell and watching Pretty Little Liars.

I tweeted as well, yay for contests!
I am spending it at work!
Today’s rest day has been filled with watching Friends dvds while relaxing with my sweet hubby and kitty!
Aaaahhhhh those sneaks are waaaay cool! (As evidenced by my excessive use of the letter ‘a’ I guess haha.)
I’m actually using my rest day later this week because a teacher friend of mine just bought the Insanity DVDs and declared we are going to all do them together in his classroom after school lol. I hope you can picture this awesomeness. Anyway, we had to do the ‘fit test’ thing for day 1 so I’m basically pooped and our school custodial staff thinks we’re crazy =)
Catching up with a friend!
I went into the office to get some extra work done, so it was good today was an off day!
my rest day was spent at school & shadowing a pharmacist (booooorrrr-ingggg). but that was better than coming home to my sick dog ๐
i’m a fan on FB!
I actually did a 90 minute hit yoga class this morning at 6AM. It was awesome!!
My day off was spent working. But ready for workout 4 again tomorrow!
Hello foam roller and yoga- hurt so good!
I’m spending my off day ‘window shopping’ at the outdoor mall. The temperatures are still warm during the day here in AZ, so I’m soaking it all in before the oncoming rain!
…and I’m already a fan of yours on Facebook! ๐
ugh i had a midterm and still have a bunch of assignments to do, so it definitely is an off day for me. i’m not exactly a pink person, but i love the style of the shoes!
My off day was actually steady state cardio. Bring on the three minute plank tomorrow!
My weeks are always shifted by a day, but I did knock out Workout 4 this morning! And since I had to save my HIIT for after work I got an extra long set in.
PRO eating for dinner too: Stir fried broccoli and brussel sprouts with egg whites.
Loving Week 4 so far!
Those sneakers are so adorable! I would love them for Zumba. Today for WSU I ran 5 miles and it felt glorious! Tomorrow is a rest day with a little yoga ๐
