Exciting News!! I'm.....

So I've been MIA in the blog-o-sphere lately, but I have a really good excuse... I'm officially a business owner! I have been fortunate enough to open my own Pure Barre studio - EEK!!! I told you it was a good excuse. :)

This past weekend, I went with my team to Denver for their training. Here's a little recap of our weekend!

If you want to follow my journey as the studio gets up-and-running, you can follow us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or on my website! :)

Day 1 of training - It was 12 degrees and snowing! Such a beautiful welcome to Denver!

Training is officially over! Can you tell we were excited?!

Happy Monday, loves!

Linking up with Sami's Shenanigans, Life of Meg, and Join the Gossip.

Pure Barre Progress: 20th Class!

Wednesday marked my 20th Pure Barre class (in a 4-week time frame) and I can't tell you how in love I am with this workout! I literally want to go to class every.single.day. And when I can't make it to class I'm bummed. I can tell that my body is changing! My clothes are fitting better and I'm getting toned, as in major muscle definition. I can really tell a difference in my arms and the outer sides of my legs. I love feeling the burn and being sore the next day.

A few of you have been asking about Pure Barre so I thought I would share my results so far. I am so, so happy with the results! One of the biggest things to remember when taking Pure Bare is not to look at the scale - your weight will go up since you are gaining muscle (muscle weights more than fat). The best thing to do is measure yourself! Tyler had this measurement chart from his Isagenix Cleanse, so I copied it for Pure Barre.

In 20 classes (4-weeks) I've lost 1 inch overall! This might not sound like a lot, but it is to me.. I feel SO much better, I have more energy and my clothes are getting looser! I'm definitely going to continue Pure Barre classes - no doubt in my mind! In addition to Pure Barre, I'm going to add in running or elliptical at least 2-3 times a week. My diet... well I'm going to improve on that too! Less fast food, less fried foods and less desserts. That's a good start.

I'll be back in a few weeks to share more results! Well... what are you waiting for?! Click here to find a Pure Barre location near you!! You won't regret it, pinky promise!

It wouldn't be a proper Friday without Whitney's #BackThatAzzUpFriday link-up! Here's some Flo Rida to get this weekend started!
