Workout Questionnaire!

Precious over at "The Coily Bombshell" did this a couple of weeks ago and I thought I'd do it too!

1. Five Fitness Items I Can’t Live Without:
- Jillian Michaels DVDs
- bike
- My "Mizuno Wave Nexus 5" running shoes
- sports bras
- my leopard dumbbells

2. Favorite pre-workout snack/meal:
Banana. Or some Yoghurt.


3. On my fitness bucket list:
- DEFINITELY running the "Bolt to the Q" 5k run!!! Hello? I'm the biggest Chargers fan EVER!
- Running one of the big marathons. Like the one in Boston or NYC.
- Riding my bike across as many states as possible in the US
- Do "Urban Hiking" (= I think I invented that one) and doing sightseeing runs in cities all around the world!
  Just like I recently did in Berlin (Brandenburg Gate was my halfway finish line :oD)

4. Must-have tech tools:
- My "Polar FT7" HRM. Love it!
- "SportsTracker" App (Add me as a friend, if you use it as well! "AnniSchenk")
- Wireless headphones. I need to buy some. Or are there any sponsors out there? ;o)


5. Top exercise gear:
- Definitely my running shoes. I did treadmill analysis and everything to find a pair that suits me and my
  running style perfectly. So they might not look the way I would have designed them, but running in them
  is just wonderful!
- I am recently in love with "Hunkemoeller" workout clothes and sports bras!
- Reebok EasyTones. Shoes and shirts. Perfect for aerobic! I now own 3 pairs of shoes and 2 shirts :oD

6. Motivational mantra:
Jillian Michaels changed my life, so my mantras sure come from her :oD

7. Next big exercise goal:

Ummmmm... Running! Biking! And HIIT on the elliptical!


9. Favorite strength move:
Squats

10. What would you say is your biggest fitness accomplishment thus far?
- Quit smoking
- Finishing the 30 Day Shred

Happy Friday!

Oh how happy I am I made it through another week. Yesterday I went to a convention in Munich in th emorning, got back home around 1am, couldn't fall asleep right away... But the alarm went off at 7:20am anyways. I'm tireder than tired.

Today was a pretty busy day at the office so far as well. I will head out to get a manicure in about 20 mins though :o) ísn't this a wonderful thing to start off a weekend?

Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday I will be in Berlin. My company has a booth at the "Bread & Butter". So if you are in the area, shoot me an e-mail (grapefruitprincess(at)web.de) and we can meet up! It's the Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in Berlin as well next week, so I bet some of you guys will be around. Holla atcha gurrrl!

But let's get back to fitness business! I am proud to say: I'm still not smoking! Here are my official numbers:

What should I say? I feel better and healthier every darn day :o)! I wish my lungs would recover faster though... But that's what you get for spending too much time playing around with cancer sticks.

Since I've finished Jillian Michaels' "30 Day Shred", I started doing her DVD "Extreme Shed & Shred" for a couple of days, but as soon as I got my "Ripped in 30" DVD, I postponed the shed and started the rip ;o)

Yesterday was my rest-day - but running around on a convention for hours and hours was even tougher than 30 mins with Jillian :oD! So today I officially start Week 2 of "Ripped in 30"! So excited, cause I really don't know what to expect! No sneak peek so far! I stayed strong!

Tomorrow I will join a big fitness event in Nuremberg: The "Reebok Fitness Remix Tour"! I don't really know what to expect, but I hope it will be a whole lot of fun doing new exercises and hopefully grabbing some goodies! I LOVE stuff for free :oD! Wanna sponsor me?
I will try to take some snapshots of the event to post them on here. So make sure to check back!
