Under Armour Visit Part 2: Great Things are Coming

August 26, 2013 | fitness, motivation, Under armour

If you missed the first post about my visit to Under Armour headquarters, be sure to check it out and then come back here and read this one.

stronger than you think

So I left off right before we were about to get our butts kicked in an awesome but tough workout wearing the new Armour 39 monitoring system. We did a circuit workout that went on and on with moves to tone the entire body. Although it was a nice cool day, I sure was pushing hard and feeling the burn.

We finished off our workout with an Under Armour cheer (Will you protect this house?!?)

Post workout happiness!

We took a look at our ipod touches to see what our stats were with Armour 39. I was quite pleased that I had a willpower of 8.58, I was working hard so it was nice to see the “proof” of that. We chatted a bit more about the intensity, heart rate, and other details of the system now that we had seen first hand how it works. It’s so awesome guys, I can’t wait to get my hands on it.

Something that I learned from this workout is that I have NOT been pushing the intensity like I should, except when I run. When I am running I have no problem pushing hard, but on cross training days, I tend to treat them like easy days, and I shouldn’t. This workout proved that to me, so I will be working  lot harder now.

We headed back inside for a quick shower before lunch and meeting with a few of the amazing teams that work at Under Armour.

I can’t share everything I learned with you, but trust me when I say some awesome things are on the horizon for Under Armour! I was so excited to meet some of the creative minds behind he brand, it got me so pumped!

Later that afternoon we headed to our hotel.

We were spending the night at the FOUR SEASONS!

More on that later, I will leave you in suspense until tomorrow. Smile

QOTD: Do you feel like you could up the intensity of your workouts?

I wanted something simple, personalized, and actually doable, not a 47-step routine I’d abandon in two days. That’s why I started using Mochi Health for skincare + wellness support, and it’s been one small thing that makes me feel more put together (even when I’m not).

If you’ve been wanting to get your skin and wellness together without overthinking it, I shared more in the reel. Link in bio for $40 off your first month.

San Diego snaps. 📸 Did you know Disney makes it San Diego snaps. 📸 

Did you know Disney makes it SO easy to fly into San Diego for a @disneycruiseline vaca? 🚢 (ad)

Let’s break it down :
1.) Flew into the San Diego airport
2.) Took a Lyft to @grandhyattsandiego which is super close by
3.) Walked right downstairs for dinner @seaport_village 
4.) The next morning you walk downstairs to a special table in the lobby to check in with DCL, show your passport, be extra luggage tags etc.
5.) Leave your luggage at the door of your hotel room. They will collect it and put it on the bus for you. 
6.) Meet downstairs at your designated time and board the bus
7.) Super short 5 min ride to the port on the Disney bus
8.) They handle your luggage, you just get on the ship! 🚢 

It was so nice having everyone nearby and coordinated for us! I highly recommend arriving a day before your cruise anyway if you are flying, and Disney made it seamless. 
Note that right now, the Grand Hyatt is the only San Diego area hotel that has the service of the Disney bus transportation to the port. 

Know what’s even more seamless? Having an agent from @bestdayevervacay plan all of this for you at no additional cost! Click the link in my bio and you can get a free, no obligation quote and start planning your magical vacation!

We just set sail on the Disney Wonder for a magical 3 night west coast sailing! But the fun won’t stop when we disembark, we will be continuing the trip to Disneyland so don’t go anywhere! All the fun is happening right now in my stories! (And saved to a highlight if you miss some!)

A huge thanks to Disney and @bestdayevervacay for making this possible and sending us on this trip! ✨

#ad Turns out my patio didn’t need a full makeover #ad Turns out my patio didn’t need a full makeover… it just needed the right planters 🌿 

I walked into @loweshomeimprovement (garden center = instant mood boost) and found these allen + roth & planters that look designer but are actually budget-friendly. Exactly the kind of upgrade I love: big impact without the big price tag. 

Swipe to see the before → after because WOW. New planters + fresh plants completely brought this space back to life. I love how versatile they are too, perfect for patios, porches, or even indoors. If your outdoor space is looking a little… tired (same 😅), this is your sign to refresh it for spring. 

Grab them in-store at Lowe’s or through the link in my bio 🔗
