Weekly Workout Schedule + FITTER WEEK 8 (of Round 1!)

Hey babes! I hope y’all are doing great this weekend!! I have been in Greenville, South Carolina, celebrating a couple of our besties getting married!  It has been such a fun weekend.

So can we talk about how we are on the last week of FITTER?! WEEK EIGHT ALREADY?!  Oh my gosh…this time really flew by y’all.  The Fitter team has been killing it and I’m so proud of each and every one of you.  And even of you aren’t doing the program itself but you come here each week to get workouts and you do those, THAT is amazing too!! You’re taking time to invest in yourself and be the best version of you and that is the coolest thing ever.  Y’all rule.

But yeah…week 8.  Don’t for a second think that just because we are on the last week of the Fitter Program does that mean you’re done. No no no 🙂  The program was designed specifically for you to be able to repeat the program 2, 3, even 4 rounds through!  I just finished my fourth round, and I’m still seeing results.  You see, since there are different levels of the program, and different weights to use throughout, you can continue to progress!  It’s how you can learn to rely on yourself to push yourself and do these workouts and get stronger, leaner, fitter, and more confident.  So keep on going.  I’d plan to pick right back up on week one next week.  But first, let’s focus on finishing week 8 STRONG!
