#VMFITYEAR 16 Week Workout Plan

Sorry guys! I had to repost this original post split in 2 parts - workouts and then food, because it was messing with my blogger layout!

So another year DOWN. Goodbye 2012,  

HELLOOO 2013! 

We're a pretty strong bunch #fitfam. We survived the dreaded Mayan end of the world!

So now what?

Well now it's time for a NEW YEAR.

Did you all slip this past holiday season? These past few weeks, months, or even year?

You know what's great about a New Year? Those little things called

New Years Resolutions!

Eh but who are we kidding? No one EVER sticks to those do they?

So now I am setting my 2013 PLAN, as in, I WILL achieve it! Not a resolution where I'll stick with it for maybe a few weeks, 2 months tops, and then quit.

No no my friends, this time I'm ACTUALLY sticking to these goals I'm setting!

YES. SELF-MOTIVATION! And not to mention motivation from my shmexy Fab 5 friends, and all of YOU, my wonderful followers!

I'm going to stick to my plan because I deserve to be the happiest I can during this New Year right?!

AND SO DO YOU! 

Also It's my birthday tomorrow, January 2nd! I think it'd be a nice birthday present to actually succeed at one of my long term goals!

Remember to use the hashtag on Instagram - #VMFITYEAR - I want to keep track of my progress this year, but alsooooo see all of YOUR journeys and progress! Lets kill this year fitfam! It'll have no idea what hit it!

I've made myself a

 16-week plan 

What?! That long of a plan for a girl who can never stick to something for more than 4 weeks?!

AHAH YES!

This 16 weeks will be my entire Spring Semester as a College Sophomore.

The time will pass anyway, 

so why not be productive and use that time to get in the best shape of my life?!  

BOOM.

Mind blown...

So here I've put my plan out there for all of you to see!

Feel free to use it as a base for ideas if you're stuck with what to do, but you should never copy them EXACTLY. Switch them around to fit YOUR specific needs and goals! I'm having these workouts and foods because of how my semester is planned out with classes, and because of how my body reacts to certain foods.

I'm doing these next 16 weeks in "phases" so that they don't draaaaag out.

I have a habit of getting bored easily, so doing them in phases will help to keep me still interested and motivated!

My plan is a mixture of short term goals [each phase] and one long term goal [16 weeks total!]

Haha I guess I can kinda say "16 weeks out" right?

Like those fitness competitors do for competitions! Makes me feel more "legit" teehehe.

[Switched shoulders & bis/tris day! Fits better with my schedule]

Birthday Festivities & New Year Goals

It's my birthday I can cry if I want to!
Ha but I don't want to, so don't worry fitfam!! 

How was everyone's New Year?! I hope it was a BANG and that you had a blast.
Guess what?!?! I've reached my

3rd decade of life

How crazy does that sound!?! Ahaha, the big 2-0!! YES out of the teen years thank goodness! On my way to adulthood! Kinda scary, kind of exciting, definitely all new! I wonder what's in store for me these next 10 years! So crazy to think about...

I posted this photo a few days ago on my Instagram and a lot of you found it helpful:

With the new year coming up, we all have those resolutions. Something we want to get done, to change, etc. but think about 10 years from now. If you were the same, would you be happy? No? I know I wouldn't be. There's SOOO much left to do: to change, to improve on, to learn, to progress, to make mistakes and learn from them, to move on from, SOOO MANY THINGS to experience! And how do you experience things? By CHANGING. Don't be afraid to live a little. Back in August I was terrified of trying weights - "I'll get bulky, look like a man, yadda yadda" but from weights I got in the best healthy state my body had been in in my 8 months of a healthy lifestyle. Don't be afraid to try new things. You may end up LOVING it. Try something new today, try something new this New 2013 Year, you won't regret it. What could the next 3 months bring? What changes could you see? You never know if you don't get out there and TRY.

What are your goals for this 2013 year?

I know what mine as a whole are! My birthday wishes and 2013 year goals kinda meshed into one.

• make the best of my 2013 year. make these next 12 months COUNT.
• do well in my spring semester sophomore year of college
• follow through on all the phases of my 16 week workout and meal plans
• be happier
• No binges 
• More research in health and fitness (workouts, nutrition, psychological aspects - especially in regards to binging)
• more family time
• live life to the fullest

Those are just some of my goals!! They're kinda broad and open, but I do have more specific ones written down in my fitness diary :] 

I hope you all have some great goals set out and I hope you achieve them all!

Here's a great post by Muffin Topless on how to achieve your New Year's goals and resolutions, check it out!
