Muscle Milk Light!

If you are tired of the Advant Edge Shakes (they are a bit watery and nasty I know!), try Muscle Milk Light! Both Chocolate and Vanilla are very good and have a much richer taste with just as much protein, less calories and no sugar!

Post Baby Workout Plan!

Not being able to run during the last third of my pregnancy was terrible! Mainly because that left me only being able to do the same old elliptical every day and I like variety. So needless to say, when I went for my 6 week check up, I was beyond relieved that I was able to get back to running outside again! I will say sticking with the workouts throughout pregnancy made for a much easier time getting back in shape after having Jackson. So even though I couldn't run after 6 months of being pregnant, sticking with the gym kept me in shape, so when I did get the ok to start back I was able to pick up where I left off and stretch my distance pretty quick. So here is my 7 day workout plan that I have followed pretty much every week now since about 5 weeks pp. (Each days workout comes out to roughly 60-70 min per day.)

Sunday: Elliptical 35min Weights 35min
Monday: Run 6 miles and abs
Tuesday: Elliptical and Weights 35min
Wednesday: Run 7-7.5 miles and abs
Thursday: Elliptical 35min and Weights 35min
Friday: Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred Levels 1 and 3 and abs
Saturday: Run 7-8 miles and abs

*I recommend P90x ab ripper x (15min) 3x per wk which ever days or Jillians 6 week to six pack dvd for abs.
