I’m Obsessed!!!  They must have known that I LOVE pink!

I got a great tank that’s jersey material, bright pink shoes, 6 headbands, a poster and a flash drive with some files on it.

The What’s Beautiful campaign is focused on redefining the female athlete.  I’ve set goals for myself and will document my journey on my profile HERE.  Join in on the fun by creating your own profile.

To inspire women of all ages to lift weights #I WILL

I headed to the gym last night with my  boyfriend to lift back, bis and rear delts.  I couldn’t stop looking at my adorable new kicks!  They were so bright, fun and VERY comfy!

If you want to see the shoes on the UA site, go HERE.

We had a hard workout.  I love working out with him because we always push each other to our limits with the amount of weights we use.  I need that.  I’ve been guilty of going to the gym in the past and just going through the motions.  Sometimes it’s nice to have a partner there to hold you accountable and call you a wimp if your weights are too light

Here are some of the workouts we did…

• Wide grip seated rows
• Narrow grip, reverse grip lat pulldowns
• Barbell Bicep Curls
• Rear Delt machine
• Rear Delt Cables
• Bicep Curl Machine
• Low Row

I have a feeling I’m going to be feeling that workout for the next few days!

Before I head off, I just wanted to give another shout out to Under Armour and give them a HUGE thanks for letting me be a part of this amazing campaign that affects women all around the world!  I feel so honored!!  Thank you Under Armour and FitFluential!!!

At first…I was thinking there’s no way there will be a big difference. I thought my regular ear buds were just fine.

I realized how wrong I was after trying these..no joke!

Here’s a picture of the adorable Fit Clips. I got the purple.

I wrapped the top around my ear and pushed the rubber ear piece into my ear. It was like a suction cup and just fit perfectly while blocking out all the sound around me. They never moved once or moved around my ear. I’m a believer in these earphones now! If you are looking for some new earphones, check out Koss! They are about $30.

I had a great shoulder and core workout last night. I’m up to 25lb dumbbells on my shoulder presses! I’ve been working the most on building my shoulders so that’s a big accomplishment for me. Grow baby, grow!!

Purple nails and heavy weights…that’s how I roll

As soon as I got in the car, I realized my new Koss earphones were the EXACT same color as my nails. I love it!

Also…if you haven’t already noticed, I’ve totally redone my website. I hope you like the new design. As you can see, under the home page, there’s a stream of Instgram pictures. Next time you’re taking a fit pic, or out living life active in any way, tag #LiveLifeActive on Instagram and your picture will be streamed on the home page of LiveLifeActive.com!!! How exciting!!! I love this new feature of my site. I like featuring YOU GUYS!!!

So I’m really excited for this weekend, on Saturday we are going on a treetop adventure and zip lining!!! GoApe invited us to try out this adventure and I can’t be more thrilled. I love trying new outdoor adventures and this is right up my alley.

The whole adventure is up in the trees while your harnessed in. You also get to do 5 different zip lines! I’ve never done a zip line before so I’m pretty darn stoked about it!!! I’ll make sure to take pictures and maybe even a video of our adventure.

On Sunday, I’m headed to the Indy 500! It’s a big weekend for Indianapolis. We always head out to the track around 4am and spend the day hanging out with friends, grilling some good food and watching some fast cars. Even though I know nothing about racing, it’s still a fun time.

Do you have any fun plans for memorial day weekend? Are you doing anything active?

#43 – Go to 2 cubs games (1/2 completed)

A couple weekends ago my dad invited us to a Cubs game at Wrigley.  There is no better place to be than Wrigley on a sunny Saturday May afternoon.  I will always be a Cubs girl..forever!!

To make things even more amazing, he got us tickets to sit FIRST row behind home plate.  We were on TV the entire time..for EVERY pitch.  It was a blast!

Ryan and I outside the front of Wrigley!

Check out how close our seats were.  It was unbelievable to have the opportunity to sit there!

#83 – Get 6 Manicures (4/6 Completed)

I know you may be wondering how in the world have I only gotten 6 manicures since the end of 2011!!!   I don’t get them too often but I think I need to change that!

The above picture was taken a couple days before I broke my darn finger.  It was pretty while it lasted…

#94 – Send flowers to someone

Do cookie flowers count?  I sent these awesome cookie flowers to someone recently because they were just too darn cute!  I think it counts.

#79 – Meet someone famous

Well…I forgot to cross this off my list a while ago but when I was at the Arnold Classic this year I met a couple people that I would consider “famous”.

First, I met Finland’s strongest man… Hafbor Thor Björnsson (“Thor”) from Finland. This was the biggest dude I’ve ever seen in my life…no joke.  I actually just watched him compete on ESPN in a strongman competition and is 6’9 and 430 lbs.    He made me look like a mini me!

I also got to meet the rapper, Grandmaster Melly Mel.  He sang some hit songs back in the day.  He performed at the Arnold Classic Party With The Pros after party.

Last but not least, I got to meet the one and only ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER that night.  I even shook his hand!

Hopefully I can keep more up to date on my list, because I have a lot of work to do before September 2014!
