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.

Day off was spent with a walk outside in the sunshine and lots of grad studies homework!
I am spending my day off taking care of my sick hubby!
Today was an easy cardio day, 30 minutes walking on the treadmill and lots of foam rolling to ease the soreness of yesterdays crazy WO4!!
I’m catching up on my DVR today!
I had classes from 8 am until 7 pm today. I don’t know if that can be considered a “rest” day, but a new pair of sneakers sure would make it worth it! ๐
I’m a fan on facebook <3 love the blog!
Doing some hot yoga today!
I’m also a fan on Facebook!
Just liked you on Facebook! Big fan!!
I spent my off day shopping all day. And I still feel like I got a workout. My legs are exhausted. But I found some awesome stuff. Especially at H & M. I love that store.
I played Just Dance! I made it my goal to get 5 stars on every dance! I was so focused… I’m sure anyone watching me would have mocked my concentration face ๐ but it was a good workout so I don’t care!
i love just dance!!!!
I’m already a fan on Facebook:) I rested today with some yoga and a walk with my pup to get some fresh air! How fun are those shoes!!! Love:)
I spent yesterday wedding planning so didn’t get the chance to do the workout until today. I’m lucky that I have free evenings to make things happen!
Used today as a rest day since I have worked out hard the last 5 days! Needed the rest so I can hit it hard the rest of the week. Want to end wsu with a bang!
I spent my off day going for a nice slow jog!!
I liked you on facebook! These sneaks are awesome!
I am a Facebook fan. I spent my off day cooking with my husband and catching up on the only show we watch together- The Biggest Loser :)!
Already a fan on FB ๐
Took a nice long walk while chatting with my sister ๐
I’m a fan on facebook! Love the shoes!
These fab shoes would make me get up and dance on even the most blah days! I spent my off day getting a much needed manicure. Treat yo self Tuesday!
Spent the off day on a date with my fiancรฉ! We checked out a new Thai vegan restaurant- so good.
Just liked your facebook page ๐
It took all I had to get off the couch and go for a run, and it started raining the moment I left my house. So since running was out of the question ( 5 miles in the rain and cold=no bueno) I got back inside and popped in a dvd. I did Bob Harper’s “pure burn super strength” for the first time and let me tell you, my arms and legs will not love me tomorrow. Good thing I have a flow yoga class early in the am.
One of my Zumba instructors has the high tops and they look awesome!
I’m a student so I spent the whole day walking class to class while wearing my pedometer to check how many steps I took ๐
These are probably the coolest shoes I’ve ever laid eyes on!!
My winter shape up has been going great, consistent and I love the healthy energized feeling I have.
I spent my off day with some light weights, dance, school work and working at our stables-so much for an off day haha ๐
I’m a fan on Facebook and tweeted the reebok tweet ๐
Love your blog!!
Today I did a quick arm workout and 15min on the treadmill for a little boost before backshift. Looking forward to workout 4 kicking my butt tomorrow!
I’m a fan on FB!
I liked you on Facebook today! I had to rearrange this week’s schedule, so I did workout 4 today for the first time. The plank is a killer!
I’m spending my off day by reserving a spot in my favorite studio’s 9:30 yoga class on Friday morning. I’ve been so active at work lately that I’ve been too tired to go!
Aaaand I now like you on FB!
just started WSU this week… 3 months postpartum and haven’t done much since my girl was born. Woof, sore today, but it feels great! So excited for this giveaway because I just joined the Y and want to start taking some zumba classes!!
I liked you on facebook!
Today I went to Body Blast class at the gym and we lifted HEAVY. Most likely will be sore tomorrow! Also did a 5 mile run this afternoon so good fitness day for me. Thanks to you and Reebok for offering up those awesome sneakers. Got my fingers and toes crossed!
Did some stretching/yoga this morning for the off day! Where’s the cardio drill workout for tomorrow?
already a fan~! today i went for a stroll by the beach!
Along the lines of enchiladas, I used the salsa verde from Trader Jose’s for enchilada sauce like you recommended a little while ago. It was amazing! Thanks for the tip!
awesome! happy to hear you liked it too ๐ we’re having enchiladas tomorrow!
i spent my day hanging out w/my 10months old nephew. Carrying around a 25lbs baby all day is no joke!! Though it just might be my favorite form of “workout”!
Fan on facebook!
Already a fan on fb!! Today I went for a walk with my momma! Off day, so kept things pretty relaxed ๐
I’m a Facebook fan!
