"Great Quick Workout" {Pinercise}

So I have decided I really want to get back into shape. Technically I am not too over weight, only 5 pounds out of my healthy range for my height. I have noticed however I am becoming more and more dependent on my inhaler to make it through the day, and I think losing a few pounds and being more fit would definitely help. So I decided to start "Pinercise" posts, exercises I find on Pinterest! If you would like to see my exercise board you can view it here: http://pinterest.com/amspicer/exercise/ 

So today's work out. I thought it would be super easy, boy was I wrong. I don't know if I am just way out of shape or if it really was a work out, but it took twenty minutes, and I was sweating like crazy! Yum! Just kidding. I am not sure where I got this, it says I uploaded it to my pinboard, but I sure don't claim it!

I went ahead and searched each pose to make sure I was doing them right, so here they are:

Crunches:

Leg lifts:

(I wimped out and did side lifts instead)

Bicycles:

Squats:

Sumo Squats:

Calve raises:

Arm Circles:

Push ups:

Had to take a break! Upcoming Plans (Giveaway Info!)

I know I just had a HUGE blogging vacation, but I needed another one. It seems in the time I have taken off I have developed some eye issues. Reading, watching TV or being on the computer was giving me a bad headache. As of Friday my new glasses came in, and I can finally scrap without a headache! Yay me! So here I am with my new specs:

Its hard to tell but they are purple; I love color!!! 

So here is a plan! I have a giveaway coming up soon! I am waiting on the sponsor before I put that one up, but I can give you a coupon for them in the mean time!
