Weighttraining.com And Blogilates!

   I know this isn't the kind of post I usually do since my blog is centered around beauty/fashion, but I am really excited with what I won and want to share it with you guys! A lot of you might not know this about me, but I am kinda a sports/exercise lover. (Especially running!)  Back in 2011, I discovered Pop Pilates and  since then, I have been hooked to her videos!

    Late last summer, I competed in a challenge presented by Cassey Ho ( from Pop Pilates ) on the website Weighttraining.com. Weighttraining.com is an amazing website that allows users to track their daily workouts. It is kinda of like a community of people working towards their own personal fitness goals. You can give people "high fives" as encouragement as well as participate in challenges.  The challenge I competed in was one where you had to do Pilates burpees. There was 1 winner randomly chosen each day and then a grand prize winner for the person who got the most likes on their page! And guess who won that....  ME!!


As the winner of the grand prize, I was able to receive some really awesome prizes including a pro memebership on the weighttraining website!  Here is a look at everything I got-

A t-shirt and wristband from weighttraining.com


A Blogilates tank top

And an Ogorgeous gym bag!! 

I have had my eye on this bag for the longest time and when I saw that I finally had the chance to win one, I busted myself to try and get it! I am in love with it!! 

The t-shirt I received is really cool and I have actually worn it to my weight training class in school! (where I have gotten many complements!)


.... In sort of a body builders pose....

For some reason, upper body strength is impossible for me to build, but I do have quite the leg muscle due to running. 

Tank Top- Ogorgeous
Gym Bag- Ogorgeous

Are you guys into Pilates or weight lifting?
What is your favorite form of exercise?  I love both Pilates and weight lifting, but running has to be my favorite! Call me crazy, but I love getting that Runners "High!"

    Oww so happy you won! Congrats!
    The bag is super cute :)
    I used to go to the gym a lot when I was younger, but I'm not the type who gains muscle tone. (Actually I just became more skinny ;P)

      Thanks!! I am super excited too!
      I am kinda like that too! muscle is quite hard to build on me, but I found that using heavier weights with smaller reps works well if you want muscle! =)

      Thank you so much! Swimming is a really good workout! I would do it more often, but I kinda have a slight fear of water!
