Ugh guys I have been feeling so tired lately. It’s driving me nuts but I just feel EXHAUSTED all the damn time and I don’t know what to do. I’m pretty sure I’m eating enough, and getting enough sleep. Is tiredness a PMS symptom?

for my belly dance class tonight! It’s a dance style I’ve always wanted to learn AND I haven’t taken a dance class in forever so YAY!

No worries, I’ll still be incorporating my bodyrock workouts into my routine, just from now on I’ll only be doing those twice a week + weights. I’m not gonna lie, I get bored VERY quickly doing the same exercise over and over, so I think adding the belly dance classes to my routine will get me motivated again.

Wooooo happies!

I hate to say it, but this article applies to a lot of people on tumblr, myself included. I try not to make a point of knocking anyone trying to get fit, be it by running, lifting weights, crossfit, or even zumba. However, when I see a poor sap doing 45 minutes of every variation of the bicep curl imaginable, I have to tell myself “at least he’s in the gym and not being a fat ass watching TV.” We were all beginners once, and I’m sure many of us would look back and smack ourselves for some of the bullshit we did. Instead of belittling them, lets point them in the right direction.

Remember, unless they’re curling in the squat rack, try to remember that they’re trying to better themselves.

I never liked spinach until I made an adventurous decision to buy some at the grocery store anyways… and turn them into Oven Baked Spinach Chips.

Now, spinach is my new best veggie friend. It tastes sooo ridiculously good. Let’s start baking!

Ingredients
• Bucket load of spinach leafs. I am talking about handfuls here!
• A bit of extra virgin olive oil, to coat the leaves. You don’t need a lot - for 400 grams of spinach leaves, I used 1 tablespoon of oil.
• Herbs. I used pepper, curry powder, red pepper powder, garlic powder and thyme.

Directions
1. Preheat oven at 120°C / 250F,
2. Rinse and dry the spinach leafs,
3. Place spinach in a large bowl, pour in some olive oil to coat the leafs,
4. Add herbs, toss it all around,
5. Place some baking paper on a tray, and lay out the spinach nice and evenly,
6. Pop them in the oven for 15-20 minutes. Keep checking on them until they’re crisp!

I could eat buckets of this stuff. Yum! Enjoy your crispy veggies. :)

I think I’m going to be making these for snacks once school starts so I have something to munch on during class :)
