It's important to work your heart, just like any other muscle in your body to live a healthy lifestyle. I tend to get cardio in 3-4 times a week! I love mixing it up, to confuse my body and constantly challenge myself! The treadmill is one of my favorite machines to work on when it comes to cardio. This is a high intensity, 25 minute cardio workout. I like to hit the weights, and finish with this one! Make sure you have water on hand, and really push yourself. Remember, its only 25 minutes, you can do it. Really try to breath and focus on getting your heart rate down during the jog. I didn't include a speed for the jog or the sprint because everyone is different. Test out what your jog speed and sprint speed are and work on increasing them. If this mights be a tough one for you, you can keep it at an incline of 0 your first time around and incorporate the inclines the next time you do it. The incline will really help tone your legs during this workout. Challenging yourself and beating your old numbers is part of the fun. I hope this one is as fun for you as it is for me! Enjoy!

Simple Breakfast Options for a Healthy Lifestyle
Breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day, and I guarantee you that you've heard that a million times in your lifetime. It is a very true statement. When it comes to your health and either losing weight, or maintaining weight, it all starts with breakfast. We naturally tend to feel very hungry in the day if our breakfast wasn't sufficient enough to sustain us. The trick is to eat food that will make you feel full, and I don't mean a breakfast buffet, to maintain a healthy lifestyle! I mean food that your body will take time to digest. This will allow you to feel fuller longer, and will keep you from grabbing at unhealthy snacks until lunchtime! I definitely recommend eggs, oatmeal, fruit, yogurt, whole wheat bread, etc. These few things are very simple to make. I tend to prefer food that is sweeter in the morning, so I will probably eat a sweeter breakfast 4 days a week and the other three days I will try something more savory, like egg whites with peppers. Oatmeal has always been a struggle for me to eat but I finally came up with a way where I can enjoy it and still keep out the sugar! Below I will post the recipe for the oatmeal, along with an image and two links that I think are great for ideas on simple breakfast options for a healthier lifestyle!
