"Up In The Gym Just Workin' On My Fitness"


Would you look at that sweaty glow? One very good thing about being on the road is that although the days can be very loooong, a gym is almost always just an elevator ride away- which makes getting my sweat on rather convenient. My daily escapes to the fitness centre in the hotels that I stay in while I'm away have really become what keeps me sane out here. True, it's not always easy to fit a workout into a busy and stressful day. Often, it means waking up extra early, but there's no doubt about it being worth it- and let me tell you, it sure helps with the stress factor.

One of my biggest inspirations to shape up recently has been stylish NonSociety babe, Mary Rambin. I discovered her blog a while back and I was instantly drawn to her fab fashion posts and of course, I could relate to her serious shoe addiction. I adored her head to toe videos. Before I knew it, I was hooked to her lifecast and began following it avidly. Not only is she a handbag designer (check out her designs here), spinning instructor (sign up for her class here), and totally awesome blogger, she's also a seemingly down to earth and totally cool chick. Her regular posts about her workouts, and weekly tips have encouraged me to punch it up, and tone my booty too. It’s totally easy to become burned out with your workout. What I love about Mary is that she's always suggesting new elements that you can add to your routine to have more fun and stay motivated to be active.


The fun fitness videos and sweaty self photos that she shares on her blog always make me want to lace up my Nikes and give whatever she's trying a go. Mary says that, "Fitness is part of living a stylish lifestyle." I couldn't agree more. Now, I better get some shut eye so that I can wake up for my 6am workout.

Update:
Mary reblogged my entry on her site. I'm so honoured! Look!

6 AM workout? Yucks I only wake up that early to go skiing. :)

I love that relaxed feeling after working out. Keep it up.

You inspire me! I've been telling myself to get off my butt and go to the gym. Maybe I will now, thanks to you! :)
