The Best Post Workout Snacks

April 23, 2020

This post is sponsored by 3BAR. All opinions are my own.

This is such a crazy world we are living in with the coronavirus in full swing. I hope you all stay at home and stay safe during this uncertain time. Since we have been stuck at home for over a month, I have had to get creative with a good home workout routine. But everyone knows the best part of working out (and my favorite part) is the great post workout snacks that I am always eager to treat myself to. #foodie 😉

Ryan and I have started running again and I have been doing some other workout videos online as well. I am feeling so much healthier than I did a month ago and I am so thankful for the extra time over the last month we have had to dedicate to our health. I am hoping to take this routine, along with the healthier foods we have been eating, with us moving forward. We have made a lot of positive changes in areas we had gotten off track in during our kitchen renovation (I’ll share it soon).

I recently discovered 3BAR, a healthy post=workout snack, and have fallen in love with these tasty bars! The 3 stands for the three main macros that your body needs for energy – protein, carbohydrates and healthy fats. 3BAR has 13 grams of protein and has less than 10 grams of sugar, making this the perfect post-workout snack!

My favorite flavor is the Cocoa Crunch, but my kids love the Tropical Tri! Yes, my kids love them, too! These are not only great for post workout snacks, but they also make great grab and go snack for those busy chauffeur days. I am honestly looking forward to getting back to those again (hopefully soon). Oh, I almost forgot to mention, 3BAR is gluten free, soy free, wheat free, GMO free, trans fat free…you get the picture! They are pretty great and pretty great for you!

You can get more information about 3BAR by clicking here. And don’t forget to use the discount code LOGANCAN for FREE shipping! They also offer a sample pack that you can try for free! It’s a win/win!

How I Stay Active as a SAHM

July 25, 2018

Let me preface this post by saying that I am not even close to the most fit mom or blogger. There are so many other bloggers that I love to follow who are truly inspirational when it comes to fitness. However, I do get asked how I stay active, what workouts I do, etc. and wanted to write a post on it so that you guys can hopefully look back on it as a resource or encouragement. Most of you know that I have three beautiful babies. If you are new here, I had three babies in three years and ten days. A little crazy and unexpected, but the biggest blessings of my life. Things have been hard at times, but I can’t even imagine our lives any other way. With that being said, because I have three young kids and am trying to run a business on my own, it does not leave a lot of time for exercising.

8 Minute Workout – Perfect for Busy Moms

May 21, 2018

This post is sponsored by Elev8d Fitness. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I’m going to be really honest with y’all. After having Weston, I have tried to start working out again many, many times and it normally only lasts a week or two. Having our third child really turned out world upside down. Finding the time to workout is something I have struggled with for the last year and a half. It’s been hard because I couldn’t work out during the second half of my pregnancy due to complications, and we all know how fast you can lose the ability to run. My babies wake up at 5a.m. and have for a couple of years now. Waking up at 4a.m. to work out is not going to happen. Let’s be real.

But this 8 Minute Workout is seriously a game changer!

5 Things to Keep You On Track With Your Fitness Goals

February 2, 2018

This post is sponsored by Nokia. All opinions are my own.

In the new year, I have heard so much about health plans, diets, fitness goals, etc. It’s the same every year, and this year, I have been right there with the rest of the world. Wanting to lose weight but mainly be healthier all around. My diet hasn’t been great since having Weston and I have taken so many months off of exercising that it would be embarrassing to say. I am happy to report that I have gotten back into a routine and already feel so much better! I have a long journey ahead of me and the ever losing swimsuit season is hanging over my head, but it is keeping me motivated.

Mommy Motivation + #NSALE Athleisure Picks

July 26, 2017

Hey moms! I wanted to talk specifically to you today about a little thing called motivation. Since having Weston, I have really struggled to get motivated. Everyone told me that the third baby is the one that gets you – they were right! This third one has been a lot more difficult in many ways – not the baby, but my body, pregnancy and postpartum. The weight has not come of like it did with the other two, but I think a big reason for that is the simple fact that I have not worked out like I did the other two times. So, I want to encourage you while I try to encourage myself to get motivated and do something about it!

Postpartum Weight Loss: My Favorite Tools

January 11, 2017

Postpartum weight loss can be really tricky. Getting back in shape this time around has been so much harder than after my first two pregnancies. The weight seemed to come right off in the first couple of months with the exception of those last 5 to 10 pounds that I had to start working to get off. This time my body has been completely different. My pregnancy was harder as far as aches and pains that were pretty much 24/7 towards the end. My aches and pains have not gone away. My body is taking a lot longer to heal this time and so my workouts have been a huge struggle.

How To Stay Healthy As A Busy Mom

October 31, 2016

This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #V8Mornings #CollectiveBias

Since Hampton started school and all of our activities and play dates have started back up again, things have been so hectic. As a busy mom who is constantly running, it can be really difficult to stay healthy all the time. Especially with another baby due any day now. Sometimes, I don’t even think about it. One thing that has helped me tremendously since having kids is implementing some simple lifestyle changes that are very easy to squeeze in without noticing – even while pregnant and craving everything in sight.

Favorite Free Fitness Resources You Can Do At Home

May 26, 2016

I am a firm believer in not ever paying for a gym membership. If you have the opportunity to workout in a hotel’s gym or your apartment complex has a gym included, I say go for it! I have taken advantage of our free gym at our church’s life center in the past and love to workout in gyms when we are traveling, but I will not ever pay for one. Why should you when there are so many amazing free fitness resources out there that you can do from the convenience of your own home? For this momma, it isn’t realistic to drive to a gym every day and, I know a lot of other mother’s feel the same way. It is so much easier and more doable to workout during nap time in your home or to jog around the neighborhood pushing your littles in the stroller (talk about a great workout!).

5 Total Body Workouts for Rainy Days

January 29, 2016

On Wednesday, we drove down to Florida to spend a few days with my grandparents and to spend some time relaxing. We love to come down to the beach for the obvious reasons, but things have been chaotic at home and it was the perfect time for us to get away as a family for a while. The only downfall? It has been raining since we got here. One thing I was most looking forward to was running on the beach in the mornings, but that hasn’t happened yet. You know what they say? When it rains, pull out your total body, rainy day workouts!

Rainy Day Workouts

Rainy Day Workouts:

  1. This Total Body Tone Up from Tone it Up works all of the right places. It’s under 15 minutes and is perfect for a quick indoor workout.
  2. These fitness moves with your kids by Simply Sadie Jane is such a fun one and an amazing workout!
  3. If you’re wanting to burn baby burn, try this Kettle Booty workout from Katrina! I love her kettle bell workouts. They make me feel much stronger and I burn a million calories during these workouts. That is a real estimation.
  4. I love doing this quick full body workout from Taylor and Ange to get my blood flowing in the mornings.
  5. And my final favorite rainy day workout is the Hiity Bitty Bikini HIIT workout! I love a good HIIT routine. It gives you a huge amount of calories burned without having to get out and run. When you are rained in, it’s the perfect way to get your burned calorie count up.

As you may have noticed, I included 3 from Tone it Up because they are basically my favorite resource for free workouts. Most all of their routines can be done at home and they have helped me lose my baby weight after both of my pregnancies. I’ve had a lot of success following their weekly fitness schedules, so definitely check them out if you need a couple of people to light a fire under you.

Do you have go-to rainy day workouts?

Yoga During Pregnancy

February 27, 2015

This post is sponsored by Stayfree and Sverve, but opinions are 100% my own.

 

yoga-during-pregnancy

Staying fit while pregnant is anything but easy. During the first part of pregnancy, you are dealing with morning sickness, soreness, and tiredness. During the last part of pregnancy, many of those symptoms come back to haunt you, on top of a lot of discomfort from your body stretching and changing to accommodate that sweet baby you’re carrying. Staying motivated to work out during all of this can be tough.

During my first pregnancy, I didn’t exercise all that much, and I felt it. My hips and back were sore all the time and I just felt bad. I didn’t feel like myself. This time around I have really relied on pregnancy safe exercises – my favorite being yoga since I have had to quit running. Yoga has kept me flexible, strong and feeling more energized this time around. It also gives me a nice break from walking outside. Some days, it is just too cold, and lately it has been raining a lot, so staying indoors has been a nice alternative.

stayfree

I recently discovered an exciting collaboration between Stayfree and Gaiam T.V. that I mentioned in this post. I ran to Target to grab some Stayfree Ultra Thin pads (because I will need them in a few weeks anyway) and I uploaded my receipt to Stayfree’s website and received a free 30 day trial of My Yoga videos. I have really been enjoying learning and brushing up on all of these basic moves and practicing them during Hampton’s nap time. I love these pads and will definitely be needing them in a few weeks after I have my baby. No leaks for this mama, thank you! Be sure to check out this deal now through March 12th!

exercise-during-pregnancy

Whether I am outside enjoying nature or in my living room, yoga has been the best way for me to de-stress, take some time for myself and stay healthy during my second pregnancy.

Some other changes that have made my pregnancy healthier and easier:

-Drinking more water
-Resting as much as possible
-Exercising every day
-Stretching/Yoga
-Eating healthier

What are some ways you stayed healthy during your pregnancy?
