Say hello to this month’s instalment of The Fitness Files; an update of all things sweaty that drops on the first of every month. You ready for round four? Let’s do this…
THE SONG TO ADD TO YOUR PLAYLIST – I know I’ve been prattling on and about about this playlist, but not only is great to have nostalgic moments and sing along loudly with, but it’s a fab one to get sweaty to as well – it’s all about Anna & Lily’s Teenage Throwback Playlist. Just be warned that may have to learn how to run and sing at the same time.
THE WORKOUT VIDEO TO GIVE A GO – because I’m seriously obsessed with Crow Pose right now, I’m going to have to say Yoga With Adriene’s How to Do Crow Pose video. She breaks it down in a really easy to follow way and though I’m currently only able to hold the pose for all of about 0.1 seconds if that, I’m attempting to do this video a few times to week to strengthen and build up to 0.2 seconds of holding.
THE RECIPE THAT’S WORTH A WHIRL – shameless plug alert, but really the recipe that you’ve got to give a go is one of my three juice and smoothie recipes from this video. If it’s a post workout fill-up you’re looking for then the Peanut Butter Smoothie is amazing, if you fancy something sweet then it’s all about the Berry Smoothie or in the AM I love knocking back the Green Juice (that actually tastes really nice, promise!).
THE FITNESS CLOTHING PIECE TO ADD TO YOUR WARDROBE – right now I’m surgically attached to the Lexie Sport Iris Leggings. Comfortable? Check. Eye catching? Hell yes. Funky sheer panel that doesn’t make you feel too exposed? Yep. The lovely ladies at Fashercise have put on a little discount especially for VDM readers that will run all month – babes! Just enter the code ‘VDMAKEUP15’ at the checkout to receive 15% off (offer valid till midnight 30th April, exludes items in the sale and can’t be used in conjecture with other discount codes).
THE ROUTINE THAT I’LL BE DOING FOR MARCH – I’m still working on my glute exercises to strengthen everything up, but I think April will be the month that I finally brave running again – so I’ll keep you posted on that one. Aside from working up the courage to pound the pavements I’ll be rolling out my Yoga mat a few times a week and I’m even tempted to do the Yoga With Adriene 30 Days of Yoga challenge again – there’s 30 days this month…
