I’ve always been into fitness. I describe myself as a glam tomboy.  As a kid I would dress up in my pretty dresses with my patent leather shoes and then go climb a tree. It didn’t make my mom happy. This year I fell off my routine because of various reasons and I made a decision to jumpstart my workout regime no matter what! Over a month ago I purchased these cute Champion Stride Fitness fit flops at Payless on my way to work. 

I had been taking daily walks, but thought these could give me the extra challenge I was looking for. Ladies if you don’t own a pair, get one! These little puppies had me sweating and my legs burning. I felt it in my legs, calves, glutes, and it helped to increase my heartrate as well. In addition to using these for walking, I was in search of a pair of sneakers for my other fitness activities. If you haven’t already met, let me introduce you to the Nike Air Max Trainer One.

I love this shoe! Not only is it super cute, but it has this great technology built in that helps you to get the most out of your workout. According to Nike,

“The Nike Trainer One is not  magical toning shoe. It’s DiamondFLX technology activates your muscles to work how they’re supposed to giving you faster results from all those squats, lunges, and classes that you do. So you get fit faster.”

With that said, if you do the work, you will see the results. And remember monitoring your diet goes hand in hand with working out to achieve the best possible results. I don’t belong to a gym. I workout at home or go outdoors. You can also use the Nike Training Widget on your Apple  iPhone or iPod Touch. My personal favorite are to use the videos on ExerciseTv which can also be downloaded onto your iPhone or iPod.

So ladies, there you have it. No more excuses. You don’t need a gym membership to gain the results you crave. Build up your personal arsenal to get fit and live a healthier lifestyle. Consider asking your friends, family, or coworkers to form a group as a support system. Sound off! What have you done this summer to jumpstart your personal fitness goals?
