I cant tell you how much of a difference it has made in me. I&#8217;m more confident, I&#8217;m not depressed, I have more energy and I just feel amazing.

But if you want to see results that&#8217;s not the answer, you need to switch up your routine. Ride the bike machine one day, learn how to use the arm and back machine. What I actually did was take one of the boot camp classes that were free when I first joined! It showed me all this stuff to do with the machines that I would have never known to do before!<\/p>\n<p>Secret #2: Find a gym buddy, or make a great play list on your ipod to listen to while your working out. If your not paying attention to how long or how tired you are , you will keep going and make more progress.<\/p>\n<p>Secret #3: Stick to your routine, figure out if your going to go everyday, every Tuesday, whatever it may be and don&#8217;t make up excuses to why you don&#8217;t go. Set a specific time too! My problem is I have to push myself to go, but I have a set time and set days that I go and now I feel guilty and not as healthy if I don&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>Secret #4: Eat clean! eat a lot of fruits , vegetables and lean meats. Try to drink a least two 8oz bottles of water a day, and stay away from the sugary drinks. I know its hard during the holidays, but that&#8217;s where most of your extra weight comes from!<\/p>\n<p>Secret #5: Once your back to school , take time and on your breaks use our gym!\u00a0 Its a great way to help you think clearly and cut down on the stress in between classes! Keep up the great progress even once were back to our busy schedules.<\/p>\n<p>Secret #6: Last one I promise! Look up workouts\u00a0 and recipes on PINTREST, its a great way to see what others are doing that you wouldn&#8217;t think do to other wise.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll see how far I get until school starts again, wish me luck everyone!<br \/>\nxoxo -Kailee<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey all, I just got done with work for the night and I had the urge to blog!
