For the past three months I’ve literally become For the past three months I’ve literally become so OBSESSED with the Peloton that I had to blog about it as the best at-home workout. 🤪 @onepeloton seriously has me addicted to working out, like I have NEVER been willing to exercise more than once a day or more than an hour at a time until I discovered this magical bike, and I’ve officially hit 50+ rides since October! Head to the link in my bio to read my newest post “A Fun Workout Class You’ll Become Totally Obsessed With: The Peloton Bike” that includes... 🚲 All the iconic and personable trainers you never knew you needed (including my all-time favorite baddie @fitxkendall who slays me in shape every single day and pushes me so hard in her metal and punk rock rides to break my own records! And my other favorites SO FAR ➡️ @robinnyc @codyrigsby @alextoussaint25 @milamariana) 🚲 My favorite playlists (with everything from metal, to club bangers, hip hop and pop, throwbacks, and artist highlights like @linkinpark and @badbunnypr) 🚲 Thousands of classes to give riders so much variety 🚲 Plus my experience of actually getting way stronger, unlike typical cardio workouts Grab a Peloton or a find a new apartment building with a Peloton (like I did on accident when I moved to Chicago) and add me as a friend @ Ashlea777 😝 Happy riding! #peloton #onepeloton #pelotonstrength #pelotonweightloss #pelotonbike #athomeworkout #cycling #spinclass #bike #bikelife #bikelovers #pelotoncommunity #pelotonfamily

You will never catch me without a carb 🍔🍽️ You will never catch me without a carb 🍔🍽️ I exaggerate for effect LOL — I'm no stranger to a carb-less meal but completely cutting them out? No, thank you. It’s the first week of the year which means not only are a lot of people crowding the gyms but they're trying out new "diets." One in particular I’ve been hearing about a lot is the Keto Diet and using it for weight loss, so I decided to do some of my own research and share my findings about Keto, how it works, and also some of the downsides most people don’t understand before actually trying it. ✨ Check out my new blog, “Weight Loss & Keto - What They Don't Tell You About This Low-Carb Diet” For me, the key to eating healthy (and enjoying life) is all about balance, and the BEST way to approach weight loss in general is simply being calorie deficit combined with being somewhat active. So I’m not a fan of this diet or its harsh restrictions, which a lot of people are finding isn't very sustainable or realistic and has even been said to make them sick. But I’m curious though — have you tried the Keto Diet and found that it actually worked with lasting results?? And if it did work, what happened when you finally reached your goal and stopped using the diet plan altogether? Let me know in the comments below. 👇🏽 #ketodiet #ketoweightloss #keto #newyear #2023 #newyearnewme #diet #fitness #fitnessgoal #healthyeating #lifestyleblogger #healthblogger
