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 live in east Tennessee with my husband Bobby, my daughter Emma Kate, and our dogs Dolly and Luna.

Around here you’ll find a little bit of everything:
✈️ Family vacations
❤️ Couples getaways
🌎 The occasional solo adventure
🏀 Sports mom life
🏡 Home and household finds
🍽️ Food, recipes, and restaurants

Basically, if it’s making our lives easier, more fun, more organized, more luxurious, or creating memories, there’s a good chance I’ll be sharing it.

If you’re here for basketball content, travel ideas, home finds, dog content, or just the chaos of trying to do it all, welcome. You’re my kind of people.

You can also follow Emma Kate’s basketball journey at @theprincessEK and keep an eye out for appearances from Dolly and Luna, who are convinced this account belongs to them anyway. (They have their own IG @ourdoodledolly!)

So it’s actually today…HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! 🎉 Ju So it’s actually today…HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! 🎉 
July 13th happens to be a pretty great day if you ask me. 😜

Today I’m 41. I’m not a fan of odd numbers so I’m not sure yet how I feel about this year. 😆

I will say I am always very reflective on my birthday. I’m grateful for every year God has given me, and know how blessed I am to have even made it to 41. Each day is truly a gift, and I don’t always live or act like it. As someone who is “over the hill,” I find myself wanting to soak it all in and slow it all down more and more, but it just keeps getting faster and faster! 🫣

Here’s to another go around, and hopefully to many, many more. 🥂

While it’s true you need sugar to make a good slush and Alani energy drinks are lacking here, with an easy modification (fruit juice!) I got it to work, and boy was it delicious on a hot July day! ☀️ 

It was a fun, summery special occasion drink! What flavor combos should I try next? Hawaiian shaved ice + pineapple juice was so good! It was so easy I want to do it again! 🥤
