Good Morning, Monday!

Another Marvelous In My Monday with the Healthy Diva, Katie at your service. I have missed a few of these lately with how busy things have been at home and work. There is so much to post about since I have been M.I.A. these past few weeks. Let's begin...

My first Marvelous is that I have decided to keep a new work out split. Tosca Reno wrote an article recently (to be honest I'm not sure where I read it) and posted that Robert Kennedy had a training rule...

Two days on... one day off...

I have decided to try my hand at the two days work... one day rest training tactic. I have also been incorporating more drop sets in to my workouts. Surprisingly, despite what others think... I don't look like incredible Hulk. =) There is your proof that lifting weights (ladies) does not make you bulk up... I promise!!

Camping neat Santa Barbara was MARVELOUS last week. Our camp sight was just a short walk to the beach and I of course loved 'lots of S'MORES!! It was good to get away and spend some time away from work and time with Nick. I ADORE him!!!

While we were on vacation 10 of my tanks came from High Wired Clothing! =) I am loving the racer back tanks too. I wore my first one to the gym yesterday and it was SUPER comfortable. I would suggest buying one size up, but that;s just me... I don't like my things too snug.

There you have it... a little bit of MARVELOUS from my Monday! I usually take Monday off from the gym, but I went given my new training split. I have to say... I feel MARVELOUS in the morning when I get up and go to the gym before work. It really does get my day started on the right foot!

Have a great Monday FIT FRIENDS!!

Hey ya'll!!
I was sent a package from Chobani today! Excited doesn't even describe my emotions properly!
They sent me lemon (I can't find this by me) and chocolate chunk! I love the chocolate chunk!! It really is like their box says...
"Nothing, but good."
What's your favorite Chobani flavor? Could there possibly be a Chobani giveaway in the future?!? ;-) sounds like you'll have to stay tuned! :-)

This week was packages week! =) My Asics came too today. I got yellow and turquoise 2170s. Nick has a really hard time finding shoes that work for running. He discovered Asics 2170s and has been hooked. I decided to give them a shot since I had reward bucks and a good coupon for Finish Line. I will have to let you know how they work for me! =)

Well, I've found myself a new addiction.. .High Wired Custom Tees. I have been on the look out for some cute workout clothes and I am starting to make progress! =) I had a couple tees done up for myself and I love them. I can't wait to get more. I have been trying to think hard about some cute quotes to put on a tee.

I have been getting a lot of comments on my arms recently. My plan is to write down the workouts I do so I can share them with you guys. I must say... I really hate cardio so I try to do circuits, super sets (2-3 exercises, one right after the other), and lots of plyos. If you aren't familiar with plyos it is short for plyometrics. Plyos are quick, explosive movements in your routine. My first set of plyos when I started weight training was jump squats. I LOVE THEM! Try to do 15 jump squats instead of 15 standard non-weighted squats.
