I’m currently camping right now. Probably soaking wet and huddling under a canopy but I’m with great people so I’m sure I’ll come back with great stories. In the meantime, wanted to pass along a couple of things – workout ideas to try, and country music. You could easily say these are some of my favorite things :) I mean if I could get a butt-kicking workout in and then go to a country concert I’d be set. There is just something about a great country song that can change your life (in case you didn’t know, my whole love story with Chris is more or less built around country music – first concert, proposal idea, 1st dance, wedding tables…).
Workouts from around the web:
- The Fitnessista Summer Shape up. Week 1 and week 2.
- Anything from Julie at Peanut Butter Fingers. This girl is seriously amazing.
- Fitfluential Pinterest Workouts
- Online pilates curtesy of Cassey
- The mother of all online workouts – BodyRockTV
Current country music faves:
There are some great country songs out right now that get me super excited every time they come on the radio. Here are just a few of my current faves. FYI not all of these are the real music videos. I think a few still aren’t out yet? Or I suck at You tube.
Pontoon – Little Big Town. I have been really excited about this song since we rented a pontoon boat for our camping trip. I’ll let you know how that goes. You know, with the rain forecast and all.
Cruise – Florida Georgia Line. Um, I seriously want to be somewhere on a back road with the sun streaming through my sunroof and warm air blowing through the windows.
Somethin’ bout a truck – Kip Moore. Somethin’ bout a girl in a red sundress, with an ice-cold beer, pressed against her lips…I would like to be that girl. Just saying.
Hey Pretty Girl – Kip Moore. This was our friend’s 1st dance at their wedding and I fell in love with this song. If we ever have a daughter I want to put these lyrics up on her wall. This might actually be going into my top songs of all time list.
El Cerrito Place – Kenny Chesney. Not so much a song about summer but such a good song from his new album.
Wanted – Hunter Hayes. Tears actually welled up in my eyes the 1st time I heard this song. You can just feel the emotion.
Hope you’re having a good Saturday. Do you have any country songs or workout ideas to share?

I like Cassie’s pilates videos! I actually found her on youtube. I totally steal her moves for my Mat class! PS Due to rain we are stuck indoors in the tiny fitness center:( hope you aren’t getting too soaked camping!
We got a little wet but nothing too horrible. How was pilates inside?
