TIP OF THE DAY: Every day counts! Through blogger, which is the service that powers this blog, I am able to see “statistics” regarding the users of my blog (no worries, I cannot see who you are/things about you); one of my blog stats includes daily views. As a science minded person, I am always interested in the trends of my viewers, such as when you check in with this blog. This past week, I actually looked at the numbers – this blog averages around 6,000-7,000 views per day on weekdays and drops down to 3,000-4,000 views per day on the weekend.What does this mean to me? Generally, many of us find it a greater challenge to make time for workouts and stay on top of our meals on the weekends. This statitstic just points towards that statement as well. You may be unpleasantly surprised as to how much hard work you can “reverse” in just 2-3 days; if your mindset is that you work hard during the week, so you can slack on the weekends, it may be time for a different approach! This week, I will be posting tips as to how I stay on track on the weekend in hopes of helping you all achieve the same!
I love your blog! Thank you for the awesome workout tips-you look great!! I just have a quick fitness related quest for you. I use to be a cardio queen, 1-2 hrs 5-7 days per week…I was skinny but lacking muscle. About a year ago, I started adding a 5 day split with my cardio 5-6 days a week. In the last 3 months I have been doing limited hiit cardio 2 days per week and lifting 2-3 days. Since I stopped doing so much cardio, I'm noticing a huge incresee in cellulite on my legs. I eat fairly clean-have you ever experienced this or know anyone who has? Thanks! Danielle
