In this week's Workout Wednesday I'm talking about my on-going fitness goals. In case you're new to this little corner of the internet, here's a quick recap: 

• I have always enjoyed working out. Here's how my workouts have changed over the years.
• This past summer, I landed a book deal, and decided to get in the best shape of my life. What was so mind-blowing for me was that aside from the fact that it was the best physical shape I'd ever been in, it was also the best I'd ever felt overall. I felt like everything was in balance - my sleep was excellent, my energy was consistently high, my mood was upbeat and even, my recovery time was great - everything just felt good.
• After the photoshoot for my book was over, I kind of lost the drive to stay in top shape, because let's be real - between meal prep and training - it's like a full time job. But my slacking in doing all the little things ended up being detrimental to other aspects of my life. I started having trouble falling and staying asleep, my energy levels crashed, I couldn't recover from workouts, my stress levels were out of control, and my skin started breaking out. And that brings us up to date.
