This happened !!!

So yea this happened ... Ebony.com Presented

  "The Fitness Experience " earlier this month. Ebony gathered some of the Hottest Health and Fitness Professionals together under one roof and showed us just what our young black fitness pros have been up to .

 

The Fitness Experience was a two-day celebration of Fitness, Health and total well-being. Attendees were able to get butt kicking workouts in with Nike Trainers Deanna Jefferson and Agostina Laneri ( Agostina Fitness) , They shared the wealth with feature trainers such as Max Fitness and Our very own Inspiration Nic B. ( @getfitwithnic_) .

 

 

 

 

 

Needless to say this was an amazing experience for the lucky ones who were able to attend.

Rest assure I will make it my mission to attend the next grand fitness experience, Events like this are Inspirational in so many ways. For instance you may think  that you are just reading another blog post , watching another fitness video or liking another "fitness pros" Instagram picture. But what you are actually doing is giving yourself visual images of what you can do.

 

I personally take Inspiration From these trainers for business and personal Goals. What are some goals that you have set or thought about ?

 

* Project Time

Take out a piece of paper, Think about the things you want to change and want to accomplish.

Write them out in Order of importance .

Read them to your self

Post them on sticky notes to place in your office or bathroom Maybe even in your car.

But keep your goals alive by keeping reminders close !

 

Here is how mine turned out !

 

 

 

  Be inspired to accomplish your goals! 

No matter the size a win is a win .

An be sure to check out any fitness and health expos in your city . Get involved and get motivated !!

The Buck Stops Here

Total health has a lot to do with more than just your physical looks or medical clearance. It is a combination of physical , mental or emotional and spiritual health. I often focus on physical health, with blog post and my job being personal training, however I would like to bring something to the forefront .

Emotional Health

Women, we were created as survivors and nurtures. But as a whole we are forgetting to nurture ourselves, to love ourselves , to have self worth that is greater than all the images we are constantly being judged against.

People who are emotionally healthy are in control of their emotions and their behavior. They are able to handle life's challenges, build strong relationships, and recover from setbacks. But just as it requires effort to build or maintain physical health, so it is with mental and emotional health.

(HelpGuide.org)

 

 

People who are mentally and emotionally healthy have:

• A sense of contentment.
• A zest for living and the ability to laugh and have fun.
• The ability to deal with stress and bounce back from adversity.
• A sense of meaning and purpose, in both their activities and their relationships.
• The flexibility to learn new things and adapt to change.
• A balance between work and play, rest and activity, etc.
• The ability to build and maintain fulfilling relationships.
• Self-confidence and high self-esteem.

 

 

 

In the Black community women are told to be strong, we are expected to deal with issues , hurts and pain and not say a word. Outlets for frustration are seen as a weakness. Speaking about issues you are having can even be seen as taboo. Why is this a trend ? or should I say Generational Curse ? Were we preconditioned to deal with hardships internally? Or do we chose to put our health on the back burner to keep up with image?

 

No matter the source, It is time to drop the mask and bare your true feelings. If you are hurting talk about it, if you are in an unsafe situation get out and seek help.

Life is not meant to be handled alone. And it is up to the women of our community to stand together , To build each other up and to help each other Grow.

Women: Simply Complicated

Look at the diagram above. Now decide which body type are you.

Truth is 8 out of 1o women will chose a body type bigger than what they actually are. This is because we judge what we already have against the body type we desire.
 For Example , My body type is naturally "Sex Toy"  , Yes I am satisfied with the title but my goal is "Athletic".
In a perfect world I would be an Athletic Sex Toy . A body rocking bedroom beast.

 

Honestly as  women we go through days were we feel like walruses stranded on the beach
And other days we are sexy vixens ready to conquer the world. Confidence !
Your perception of your body is more mental than physical.
 when you feel Beautiful you look Beautiful.

It can be very simple !
Try this Exercise
Get in front of a mirror....okay now strike a pose .
How do you feel about yourself right now ?
Did you just wake up ?
Are you not having a good day ?
Is it that time of the month ( screw you mother nature ) ?

Now what is one thing you can do to make yourself feel better ?

Here is my remedy when I just not feeling like the Sexy Queen that I am:

1. Clean my room ( a clean room and freshly washed sheets on my bed  are like heaven )

2. Take a shower ( lights off, candle light with Corrine bailey Rae playing thru my speakers= perfection)  And I am  not talking just a run of the mill shower oh no I'm talking about deep cleaning my dreads, exfoliating my face and riding every body part of hair. Yes I called it the Imperial Shower.

3. I throw on my favorite Sweat pants ( Victoria Secret Pink Boyfriend fit sweats ) And White Tank top ( has to be the Hands A-shirt ) yes I know its detailed but it works

4. I collapse into my bed ( which has a mattress kissed by angels ) and I drown myself in my favorite TV Show ( usually OITNB, Scandal ,Will and Grace or Everybody loves Raymond)

5. If its really a bad day then out comes the kindle and I am whisked away into my favorite Novel ( The five people you meet in Heaven , 50 Shades of Grey  or The Travelers Guide )

 

Sure this may sound like a serious deed but confidence , comfort and attitude contribute to your overall health. I love myself enough to not allow my bad moment , to turn into a bad day or bad week.

Your body type is yours and Most of us are just born with it, So own it and take care of it the best way you can . By making sure you are emotionally and Physically healthy .
