 I am a fitness instructor and teach at the Provo Missionary Training for the LDS church. I teach classes for the women who are called sisters that are learning languages for their year and a half missions to other countries or places that speak other languages. I’ve really loved working as a fitness instructor. So here’s a basic cardio fitness routine I love to do.

For a quick moment, I’d like to tell you about my apparel cause we all know I love shopping and a good workout outfit goes a long way!! My shorts are from Marshalls. My socks are VimVigr. The amazing yoga mat is from Sequence yoga Brand. I’m obsessed with the grips on this mat!! The long sleeve top is from Albion Fit! And my tank is from JcPennys.
