It's exactly one month until I jet off to Greece for a week with my Mr & his family. I'm not sure how I feel about saying I want a 'beach body' as such, any body is a beach body if you want it to be, but I do want to feel just that little bit more confident on the beach. So this month I want to work extra hard to feel that little bit more toned come September!
Now this motivation seems to come to me at 11:30pm when a full on workout isn't the most practical thing to be doing. By the time I've woken up in the morning all motivation has left the room and the thought of a workout makes me want to shed a few tears...
There are a few things I do to get myself back in the right head space, the first thing is hit up blogs and YouTube. These are my Top 4 Bloggers/YouTubers who inspire me to get on track!
(I do not own these images. Images belong to (Left to Right) Carly Rowena, Lydia Elise Millen, Rose Thomas, Niomi Smart.)
Carly Rowena - I've written a mahoosive post on Carly before, but she is the number 1 person I'll go to when I need a little motivation. So many different workouts, healthy snack ideas even some fitness fashion thrown in too. It's all done with a huge smile, her positivity is infectious!
Lydia Elise Millen - Not only is she so lovely, she has an incredible attitude towards life, being happy and staying healthy. I loved her recent posts '3 Steps To Living Well' and 'Staying Motivated For Summer'. A scroll through her instagram is enough to get me feeling like I should put the box in cookies back in the cupboard...
The Londoner - Okay, okay, okay, so Rosie is not exactly a health & fitness blogger and, yes, you'll have to avoid the burgers oozing with cheese, slutty brownies and glasses of champagne, but I absolutely love her idea of the 80/20 diet or The Anti Diet, which means you should eat well 80% of the time and treat yourself 20% of the time! You can see that post for yourself here. Plus she has an incredible figure & her legs go on for days, so if that's not gym-spiration, what is?!
Niomi Smart - I'll go to Niomi's blog or YouTube if I'm looking for some great meal or snack ideas. Her recent 'What I Eat In a Day' videos are so helpful for new recipes!
I hope this post has helped if you're looking for a motivational boost for August!
Niomi is my favourite!! I've just checked Lydia's blog and I'm already following her, love the blog! Thank you for the recommendations! :) x
