Workouts, Shows, and Being Sick

Good morning! It seems that cold that is going around may have found its way to me. Man, with how many times I have gotten sick this year, it is a wonder that I ever feel healthy at all. Hopefully, 2015 will be a year of super human health and an immune system that can rival the Hulk in strength. For now though, I will give you this super effective workout for ballet beautiful arms and legs and call it a day.

Be on the lookout though because I am super excited about the next four articles coming up on P+K this week and next. There will be some tips for loosing more weight when on a slim down, a Maria Menounos workout, some pretty great inspiration, and a bum workout that will rival any you have seen yet.

Yea, it is going to be pretty great! And, you know what else will be great? The new season of Once Upon a Time! It airs this Sunday night, so set your DVR's and get on Hulu next day :) I have become so addicted to this show over the years and cannot wait to see how they bring Frozen into the world. Although it is not my favorite Disney movie, I do LOVE Ana and Christoph and Sven and Olaf- oh, and a little cheese in my show is never a bad thing ;) If you are on the fence about watching, I have added the trailer below for your deciding entertainment.

Also, has anyone been watching Outlander? It may have been my sick day marathoned show last night....

5 New Life Adventures

I have recently discovered a few new things that I never knew existed, but now, cannot wait to do. Maybe it is because I have been watching too many of those sappy Olympic commercials, but it feels like those New Year's goals have been refreshed in my mind a bit this week and their reminder has propelled me to make a few more... No, these are not goals for this year and no, I do not think that most of them will occur this year, but here are just a few new adventures that have been added to my bucket list- or my before 30 list. We'll see.

Visit Angel Falls

Did you know that Paradise Falls from the movie, "Up" is a real place? Well, it is and I just learned about it. This may be a bit behind the times, But Angel Falls is a real place in Venezuela that is where Paradise Falls was based after.  Shortly after a friend told me that this was a real place, we had gotten a group together that have all vowed to visit it at some point in the future. Oh boy, I cannot wait! Going on adventures is super fun, but going on adventures with friends is even better!

Zipline in Costa Rica

A few years ago my two cousins and my aunt went ziplining in Costa Rica. Ever since hearing their stories, I have wanted to go. Some of what they said scared me, but a lot of it sounded exciting. Honestly, the idea of ziplining over a canyon 2,000+ feet in the air has not always sounded inciting. Until the hubs and I had our first ziplining excursion together on our last trip to California, I was not quite sure it would be for me. Since then, I have officially added it to the bucket list.

Complete the runDisney Coast to Coast Race

So, I just found out about this two nights ago and immediately decided that this must be done as soon as possible. The runDisney Coast to Coast Race is accomplished by running a Disney Half Marathons or longer at both Disney World and Disneyland in the same calendar year. The two races that I would like to complete for this would have to be Tinkerbell Half Marathon at Disneyland and the Food and Wine Half Marathon at EPCOT. UNfortunelty, this can no longer happen for 2014, but will for sure be on the radar for 2015.

Accomplish the Scorpion Pose

This may not be an adventure in the literal sense, but boy will accomplishing this be an adventure in every other way! For me, accomplishing this will mean being able to complete this pose while balancing on my forearms. This is quite the hefty goal considering that I am still in the process of mastering the headstand alone. I will keep you posted on the progress.

Ballet Beautiful Workout

So yes, I feel like a complete internet putz. Instead of going on YouTube and searching for the Ballet Beautiful workout, I went on Amazon and purchased it. Not the most extravagant and unneeded purchase of my life, but still enough to hang my head in Thrifty Girl shame. For shame, Thrifty Girl, for shame.

If you were wiser than me and decided not to purchase the Ballet Beautiful workout DVD after my review. You can feel very pleased with yourself today and get rewarded with this Ballet Beautiful 15-minute, total body workout. Congratulations, you were thrifty and wise and patient. Happy Wednesday!
