Spring 2025 fitness routine

pictured: cycle studio Bay Club Courtside /

Now that spring is here, I have tweaked my weekly fitness routine to fit into my schedule and also optimize my time. Last year, I gained some weight back that I had lost a couple of years ago; to the tune of ten pounds. Ah! It was my fault for eating sugar and not doing enough weight training at the gym. So, this season, I am going to make sure I get my weights in and also refrain from added sugar. This should take care of that pesky ten pounds!

It is important to mix cardio, interval (HIIT), and weights into your weekly fitness routine. This keeps your workouts balanced and effective. Cardio is good for your heart, weights are good for strength and bone density, and interval is good for metabolism and fat burn. Therefore, a good weekly mix is perfect!

*DISCLAIMER: Always speak with your doctor before starting any fitness routine. I am a retired athlete, not a fitness trainer or medical professional. What works for me might not work for you.

Now, without further ado, here is my spring fitness routine!

Sunday: Weights and cycle class.

Monday: BodyCombat

Tuesday: 30-minute walk, stretch, rest

Wednesday: Cycle class (cardio)

Thursday: Strong Nation (HIIT)

Friday: 30-minute walk, weights, abs

Saturday: rest

Spring has sprung! While it might still be a little chilly out there, we can still put outfits together! This way, one day we will wake up and it will be warm enough for spring outfits. Love that!

I love this flowing maxi skirt and fabulous twist top. This top will be amazing during the spring and summer seasons. It can be easily matched with skirts, trousers for work, jeans on casual days, and dressy shorts on warm days.

This customizable straw tote is a staple in my warm weather wardrobe. Mine has “Jet Set” embroidered on it, but you can pick your own saying on their website. Love!

Light pink is a hot color this season! I love this version on this printed skirt. It is so much fun, and this skirt can be worn throughout the spring and summer seasons.

If you are local to the Bay Area, you already know about San Pedro Square Market. If you aren’t, it is definitely a fun place to visit for lunch! There are multiple booths, like a food court, but they are booths from actual restaurants. This means the food is sit-down restaurant quality and absolutely delicious. Love that!

We recently enjoyed lunch at San Pedro Square Market, and it was really fun because all three of us could eat from a different restaurant at the same table. This meant everyone got exactly what they wanted. Love!! I enjoyed a delicious meal from Anchor’s Seafood which included calamari and shrimp linguini. Yum! It was so good!

In addition to food, San Pedro Square has live music and is adjacent to historical buildings and markers which feature the history of San Jose. It’s always fun to have a little history lesson tied into your lunch.

Hopefully you can visit this fun little spot in San Jose! Thanks for stopping by!
