8 Thoughts You Have While At The Gym

"Am I fit yet?"

8 Thoughts You Have While At The Gym
Google

It takes a lot of energy to finally get yourself to the gym, especially during the cold months. Once you are at the gym we all have the same thoughts running through our mind for that short time we are there...

1. How many more crunches until I have abs?

Having abs or at least a flat stomach is one of the things that girls aim for. So as we are doing these ab workouts: crunches, twist, kicks, scissors, the list goes on and on, we want to know when we, and even other people, will see results. We love to hear that our workouts are working and people can tell the difference.

2. Can I eat a burger after this workout?

I just did 100 flights of stairs, it is totally acceptable to eat a burger after this, right...

3. I wonder how much that girl had to work out to get that bod...

While you are at the gym, it is just natural to look around to see who else is in the gym and you are bound to see fit girls. You cannot help but ask yourself "What did she do to look like that? I want to look like her..."

4. Do I have Victoria Secrets body yet?

Everyone admires Victoria Secrets models and want to look just like they do when you are trying to find swimsuits for this season. So it only makes sense to continue to ask yourself how much longer until you look like one of them.

5. I could be on season 2 by now if I would have stayed home...

The entire time you are at the gym, you are most likely thinking of all the other things you could be doing. You could be watching Netflix, eating food or just laying in bed doing nothing.

6. How many more squats until I have a butt like Kim K?

Most girls just really want to have a nice butt that looks good in leggings and is difficult to squeeze into jeans. The way to that? SQUATS.


7. How is that person doing all those different things on the treadmill?

The "coolest" thing you can do is walk on an incline. However, the person next to you is walking side ways, backwards and many other things that if you ever tried to do, would fall flat on your face.

8. Lastly, I got this!

The most important thing to do is to believe in yourself. There will be days when you are sore more then usual or it's difficult to do that last set of legs, but you just have to tell yourself that you got this and push through!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
