Good afternoon! This Monday is flying by and Iām not complaining about that one bit.
My morning began like a normal Monday with a early workout at the gym with Ryan. After 20 minutes of light cardio on the elliptical, I completed the same 30 minute Razor Sharp Nike Training Club workout I did last Monday and think it may be one of my favorite NTC workouts. It doesnāt repeat too many of the exercises so it keeps me guessing the entire time.
Breakfast
After we were done with our respective workouts, Ryan and I drove home and arrived more than ready for breakfast.
Breakfast began with my go-to green smoothie!
After a quick shower, I was ready for more food and broke into a homemade granola bar. (I will definitely share this recipe with you guys this week because it was so easy to make and tasted fantastic! Itās another no bake recipe, too!)
The granola bar did a good job of satisfying my hunger through a morning of work.
My lunch break passed quickly and now Iām hoping the rest of the day goes by in a flash, too, because I have lots of crafting on the agenda for this evening. My mom and I have been chatting non-stop about my sisterās bridal shower this weekend and I have a nice to-do list going thatās about halfway done.
Enjoy the rest of your day!

That granola bar looks great! And like it has goji berries in it…my new fave superfood!
Julie says
Yes!! Loving goji berries!
Megan @ The Skinny-Life says
The go-green smoothie looks good! Odd thing is the ingredients are not things I would put together. Is it a tart smoothie or sweet?
Julie says
Definitely more tart. Lemon and ginger are the dominant flavors.
Katie @ Peace Love & Oats says
Oh fun! I love crafting, especially with a friend (or mom!), so you can just chat and catch up!
Kay says
I find the NTC workouts difficult in the layout of my gym because I never know what’s coming next so I need to keep picking up my phone and pausing it to move to a different spot.. do you ever have that problem?
Kim@hungryhealthygirl says
I’ll be on the lookout for that bar recipe. Looks delish!!
Stacie @ SimplySouthernStacie says
Drinking my own green smoothie as a pre-workout snack. I like mine a bit more sweet though – so lots of honey and peanut butter!

I downloaded the Nike Training Club app after you mentioned that you a shoulder workout from it the other day and it’s amazing! There are so many great workouts!
Sarah @ Sarah Sincerely says
No bake recipes are perfection in my book! Good luck crossing things off your to-do list. The best thing about making a list is crossing things off.
mary @ minutes per mile says

Yajaira says
I can’t wait for the recipe…I used to eat something that looked similar years ago.
Lisa says
Have you looked at the calories burned for those workouts? A 45 minute workout that puts me out of breath for most of it, predicts just 104 calories burned.
Why is that?!
