Vixen Fit

OMG!!! When your brain never lets you give up on an idea. It may not always open right away, but when one door closes it does not always mean another will open immediately! When we closed Mid-City Gym I knew my fitness career wasn’t over, he’ll it has just started! I could have easily given up, but I knew boxing wasn’t my true niche it was Jason’s. Boxing became my only solution even though everything inside me screamed NOOOO. I followed blindly a decision of someone that was only there part time. It was no longer my vision and I became more lost than I care to even admit! Fast forward to becoming pole instructor and I learned that I have an amazing ability to lead, motivate and inspire women to do things they never thought possible, like 40 seconds of banded pull ups! I have been brainstorming a way to build Vixen Fit. It’s about partnering with the right women. I mean Key Laney is the most inspiring woman and why not get an opportunity to not only work with Key to make her stronger while she helps me build my brand! I will work with Kimberly Cu***ng to build her brand of oxygen therapy! And last but not least Chama will leading me again to become my life coach and help me build my brand. I mean really the strong and powerful women I have on my side and behind me almost make this idea of mine a reality! Never Give Up on Dreams!!!! I may have taken a number of wrong turns and decisions. The pulled me down for awhile, but you have to understand I have always thought I could attain whatever I wanted….seriously I was a 5 foot goalkeeper that really believed she could play for North Carolina Tar Heels Women’s Soccer Team. I mean I challenged myself by playing boys! You learn a few things when you play against someone bigger, faster and stronger!!! You begin to become stronger and faster and hell of a lot faster! LOL I had to not fear a shot or a rocket being launched at my face hoping I would just get out of the way! I don’t give up…. I Get stronger and smarter now!!! Follow me cause sh*ts gonna grow now!!

Part 2 of Take Your Time Workout!!! I feel amazing and refreshed after a long gym session!

There’s something about actually slowing down and taking the time for yourself. This was my warm up and stretch today. Now it’s time to lift. Slow down and listen to your body. Mine was screaming at me to stretch!

When I can get a woman to finally believe she is stronger than she thinks she is; makes my heart happy! What are you going to do today to make your heart happy?

Life is hard. Being unhealthy is hard. Being healthy is hard. Lifting weights is hard. The reward of overcoming your hard is priceless.

My hard is opening up and expressing my emotions and being vulnerable.

So today I weighed myself to see where my weight currently is at. Today I am 2 lbs away from my heaviest weight, not counting pregnancy. It really is a mind f*ck. I know I am healthy now. I know that the number on the scale means nothing. I know that muscle weighs more than fat and that I’m healthy, but there’s that damn f*cking voice telling me I am fat. I don’t listen and continue to keep building more muscle! Today I upped my weight on my DB shoulder press and DB chest press. Go me cause the number on the scale means nothing anymore. I feel good and look great because I work hard in the gym, which is my reward!

I share this because even though I work hard daily in the gym, it’s not always easy. I struggle just like you do!
