Bad hair ~ don’t care
in the dark ~ don’t care
at home
at the gym
at my bro in laws house
it all works (anywhere) if you just show up and do the work! .
i almost gave up this morning but friday’s are one of my favorite days because it’s the start of weekend, our amazing 5am zoom crew is the bomb ๐ฃ. i have such a hard time rising out of bed on my own but when i know i have incredible people to meet all striving to reach their goals, it’s rare i miss that wake up call. ๐ #gratefulforazoomcrew#gratefulformyvirtualworkout .
it’s a treat to virtually workout with so many men & women on our zoom call. it keeps us on track. it keeps us accountable. it keeps us inspired and motivated to stay committed & get through the tough workouts. it gets me out of bed!!! ๐๐ปโ๏ธ
.
i call this fri-yay pretty much a miracle morning (thanks @hal_elrod for all your tips and making me put my alarm clock on the other side of the room โฐ) especially when i didn’t want to get up, had a sick little one glued to my side all night long and had workout location challenges in a quiet sleeping dark house. ๐คซ but, life isn’t about easy. it pushes us to do hard things. the struggles we face each day develop the strength we need for our tomorrows. so, when you think about quitting what you started, focus on the fact that it’s not only about the outside your working so hard to shape, it’s about finding your inner strength to be able to match your inside to your outside & celebrating all the non-scale victories along the way. because that’s what it’s really all about.... #truehappiness#livealifeyouwillremember .

whose with me on that? cheers to the best weekend ever!! xo cami

Starting my massive cut today, this photo will be what i look back on after a few months of hardcore cardio and calorie cutting.
even though i look at this photo and i am fairly happy with how things are going with my weight right now, i have a vision of where i want to be and its still fairly far from here.
but i am getting there quicker and quicker all the time!
Saturday's recovery workout session, after the open 18.1 done on friday.
21-18-15-12-9-6-3 -handstand push ups (scaled up with two plates under each hand. handstand push ups need a bit of work though) -l-pull ups (instead, ring rows. my hands ripped so i could not hold my weight on the bar after fridays toes to bar, so i had to scale this one down) ๐ -------------------------------------------------------------------------
loved this work out. a big thank you to @ruan960 who pushed me a lot after of those 21 reps. his words: "don't be lazy, push through the pain" haha. motivated me enough to show him who was boss, finished in less than 12 mins๐ช๐ผ #pushyourselfpastyourlimits#crossfit#crossfitlife#crossfitchick#fitspo#instafit#fitlife#fitliving#fitchick#healthyliving#healthfreak
Me everyday. i'm always h*****n myself no matter what i accomplish. simply because i know i can do better. always be willing to push yourself a little further or harder than you did before. its going the extra mile that's gonna get you to where you wanna go in life. #pushyourselfpastyourlimits
I realized a few things today. wanted to share. i talk to myself inside my head alot. you would seriously think i’m a crazy person. sometimes i say some of it out loud it’s hilarious. susan will be like what? and i’m like oh i just said 30 seconds. that’s it push through and get the next 30 sec done, next set done! just dooooo it.
like for f sakes that little voice telling me it hurts, how can i get out of this, i wanna quit. no!! none of that. push past it. on the other side is the rainbow of red faced, can’t get myself dress quick enough because arms are jello freedom!
push past the fear. it will always hurt, it’s not going to get better. you will die, build yourself up stronger then die again! until you are the beast that you want to be. i dunno what happens then but i’ll tell you all when i get there #fitnessjourney#pushyourselfpastyourlimits#pushoutthenegative#strongereveryday#believeinyourself#dontquit#winnersneverquitquitersneverwin
Call me crazy but i love the pain you get when you’re trying to get that last rep in, your muscles start failing, body shaking, it starts to hurt and feel like they wanna give out, but in my head i’m like, “i got this shit! push yourself dammit!!!” i seriously love those moments, it reminds me that i can get through any pain if i’m mentally strong enough. that’s when the mental gains grow, that when you should not give up, that’s when we find out the truly strong from the weak ๐ช๐ฝ #nopainnogains#strongmindstrongerbody#pushyourselfpastyourlimits#fitnurse#nursesthatlift#proudofthesweat#smileatthepain
