Pump up the Volume

I don't love to exercise.  I really wish that I did.  I would love to be addicted to running instead of Oreos.  Why couldn't I be a swimmer instead of a expert cookie dunker? We all have our talents...

Anyway, I don't like working out (hate it...really). I do love listening to music.  I can get on elliptical and be bored to tears in 10 minutes but if I have some good jams I can rock out for 30 minutes and not even notice!  The key is finding the right music!  

I am part of a little group...its like a mini weight watchers group.  We weigh in every week and share recipes and ideas.  These ladies are amazing and you will meet them all here! Today you will meet Ashton! I love this girl.  Really.  She shared her play list with us and it is a-mazing! Get ready to download!

I love this play list! Also, I like to create a play list that is the same length as my workout and matches the mood that I need to be in. Example: I have 45 minutes of heart pumping tunes and then 20 minutes of chill music.  I know when the music slows down that I am done with cardio and it is time to cool down and do some yoga!! I can't watch the time while I workout.  Makes me crazy.  Seriously. 

OK. Pump up the volume and get after it!
