YouTube

 With being a final year student at university I have been pretty much MIA from youtube, however, now that I am basically finished for the year I am going to attempt to get creative and produce some more content for you guys.
Feel free to watch, like, subscribe ad share my channel to make producing more content worth while (:

Fitness Update

Since one of my latest posts on health and fitness I have regularly been going to the gym to do cardio, weights and several different fitness classes. In the past few weeks I have really noticed a change in my body and fitness levels. My arms and legs especially have become significantly more toned and muscular and my core feels a lot stronger, I'll admit I still have a way to go before I am fully happy with my body but the improvements I have been seeing are definitely a step in the right direction. My general strength has significantly improved with me being able to lift more and more each time I go to the gym.
My favourite part of this journey has been the ability within myself to continually push myself further and further, especially during the HIIT class that I have been attending daily and loving. There is honestly nothing more satisfying than having the fitness instructor complement my form and ability to complete the workouts.

Positive Energy

I'm the first to admit that I am not a religious person however recently I have been believing more in energies and the importance of surrounding yourself with positive energy. With this new belief in my mind I have been cutting people out of my life that reflect negative energies onto me, and I must say it has been hard but it has definitely started to make me a happier person in the long term. You do not realise the drain that one sided friendships and negativity can have on your life until they are no longer there.

Health and Fitness

I have to admit, for the past few months whilst I have been busy with university work, my health and fitness routines have definitely taken a back burner.
Studying sports science and nutrition I am always conscious of what I should be eating and that I should be exercising regularly, yet it seemingly becomes so difficult when faced with a 10,000 word dissertation amongst other things!
Now that my dissertation has finally been handed in (praise the lord!), I can finally get back on track with my healthy eating and fitness.
As a motivation tool for getting fit again I treated myself to two new swimming costumes and since buying them I have been working out in the pool three times a week for the past three weeks. All I need to do now is get back into the gym doing some weight training and my fitness routine will be well underway.
In terms of healthy eating, me and my sister bought a blender and have been making veggie smoothies ever since which is a good start, I now just need to stop eating so much chocolate!
After only a few weeks of working out I can definitely feel the differences within myself. I am generally a lot happier and have so much more energy. I am determined to keep up my routine this time, and not slip back into old habits.

Update

Life as a final year sports science student is definitely a lot more time consuming than I had thought, since I last posted I have non-stop been writing assignments, revising for exams and doing research for and writing my dissertation. However the end is now insight, as of June 12th 2015 I will officially have finished my undergraduate degree.
I feel like my life is completely different since I last posted. I have now moved out of my parents home and into a flat with my sister and I have now also got a boyfriend! The only thing that has stayed the same is that I am still working as a lifeguard and swimming teacher, which I will continue doing for the foreseeable future.
I have so much to look forward to this summer: finishing my degree, going on holiday to Ibiza with my sister, going to Paris with my boyfriend and starting my masters degree in 'exercise and nutrition sciences' this coming September.

I aim to keep you all posted more regualary than I have been these past few months even though I doubt there will be any ground breaking news...If you wish to see more of me and my life definitely be sure to check out my instagram (@susrichmond) and twitter (@sus_richmond)
