I consider myself quite level headed (well,more or less.lol)
And i have a healthy view of diet and training.... in my non expert opining.
I believe that balance is key, I`m an "all things in moderation" kind of girl.
That especially applies to my eating habits and workouts.
I don`t believe in starving myself (or over eating...) and i don`t believe in any extremes in my training (either no workout or training everyday several times a day)
It`s been a looooong process, but I`m finally in tune with my own body.
So how often do i workout?
well that varies from week to week,but generally i work out 3-5 days a week.
But i try stay active 7 days a week. (i said active NOT training)
What do i mean by active?
I mean that those days i don`t go to the gym, i go for a walk,or cycle (just easy breezy cycling)
or gardening ,any low intensity activity to keep my body moving.
So my workout routine ,how does my week look like?
I try to switch it around a little so i don`t get stuck in a pattern.
