I’m thoroughly enjoying the Lean and Lovely workout plan!  So much so that I’m contemplating buying kettlebells for my mom’s house so that I can continue my workouts at home when I visit.

I love that the workouts are designed to be efficient.  Usually I only use 2-3 kettlebells in a workout.  I don’t have to wait around for equipment to free up, like the squat rack, or have to spend time changing out plates on a barbell when I want to change my load.  I feel like I get so much work done in the gym in less time.

It also makes it easy to NOT skip workouts when I know I can be in and out of the gym quickly, regardless of whether it’s busy or not.  Usually I avoid the post-work rush at 5-6:30 pm since it’s crazy crowded and hard to get a good rhythm going with so many people around.  The compact nature of the kettlebell workouts makes it easy to do my thing in a small amount of space even when there are tons of others on the workout floor.

I definitely plan on incorporating kettlebells into future workouts once I’m done with the Lean and Lovely program!

Reflections of Gratitude

Gorgeous fall days when I can walk around outside enjoying my neighborhood without being too hot or too cold.  I know everyone’s sad that summer is leaving, but I love fall so much.  BRING IT!
