Over the last week I have been having intense DB withdrawals. Like I was longing to feel the gritty metal bar and smell iron and dirt on heavy handles lol (anyone who follows me who doesn’t workout just labeled me as a sociopath LOL)
In all seriousness though, I was GEEKED to see these on our front step today.
If I had to choose one piece of equipment to use every day for the rest of my life, it would either be a squat rack (to hit the deadlifts obviously haha) with dumbbells being a close second.
With a squat rack being pretty unrealistic to fit in our apartment, I opted with this $70 adjustable dumbbell/barbell set instead, so I could get even more funky with these at home workouts in the coming days 🤓🙌🏼
If you had to choose one piece of equipment to workout with everyday, what would it be? As long as it’s not a shake weight...we can talk😉
We all have an opinion on at home workouts, which I get. If I had the option to go to the gym or lift from my house? I for sure would pick the gym.
...but that doesn’t give me an excuse to just vibe for the next few weeks because *i wOuLd rAtHeR bE aT tHe gYM* …. 🥴
Back in my sorority girl days, there was a phrase I heard so often, it’s now ingrained in my head: “you get out what you put in.”
Apply that phrase to anything that you do: grades, your relationship, hitting your macros, saving your money, training in your living room.
✖️I’ve always applied this mindset to my fitness goals: when I train as hard as I can, I get stronger, grow muscle, and have the shape I want.
✖️Or when hitting my macros: when I plan my day in advance and execute accordingly, I’ll hit triple 0’s every single time.
✖️Or now, having a bomb at home workout: when I use the tools that I have to work effectively and seek resources to help me to learn how to train in my living room, I can still get in a DOPE workout in.
When we put our 100% effort into something, we will ALWAYS reap the benefits! 🤍
If you’re stuck on what to do or how to train at home, DM me! I have tons of free resources I would love to pass on💌
