Ashley announces she has figured out how to celebrate day 365 of her fitness journey: a bowl of exercises where she pulls a random movement and does 10 additional minutes of it each day for the 36 days leading up to day 365.
Okay, I figured out how I'm going to celebrate 365 days of movement. What's up you guys? Famous Ashley Grant here. Welcome to More Movement Please, the podcast where I hope to inspire you to move your body more. Today I want to talk about day 365. So it's coming up and it's coming up fast. And I've been trying to figure out how I'm going to celebrate the 365th day of maximum effort in my fitness journey. And I've asked you guys for a lot of suggestions. I've gotten a lot of interesting suggestions. And I think I have finally figured out exactly how I'm going to celebrate.
So 36 days before day 365, I'm going to have a bowl of exercises and I'm going to do 10 additional minutes every single day of whatever exercise I pull out of the bowl. So if it's wall sits, I'll do 10 minutes of wall sits. If it's squats, I'll do 10 minutes of squats. If it's, you know. Plagg Jacks or burpees or whatever the hell I pull out of the bowl. That's what I will do 10 minutes of to lead up to the 365th day. Now you might be thinking, but Ashley, what about the fact that there's only 36 days? That's only going to get you 360. Well, for the last five, I'm actually going to do five classes on day 365.
So that's my plan. That's my goal. I'm thinking I'll do so that I can. celebrate with movement but not change any of the current movement that I'm already planning I want to continue adding to movement so that I can you know fully indulge in all the things so yeah that's what I'm going to do 365 additional exercises in addition to all of the movement that I already have planned and so on day 365 I plan to do five additional classes so I normally do Zumba and low impact cardio and toning on a Monday. And since day 365 happens to fall on a Monday, those classes will already happen. But I'm also going to do an additional five classes. Now, if you guys have been following my journey, you know that most of the time, the only classes that are held on Monday are like spin. And honestly, I don't even know what they are anymore. I'm gonna have to look them up. But I will either do classes online or classes at a different facility or
Ashley explains that on day 365 — which falls on a Monday — she'll do her usual Zumba, low-impact cardio, and toning classes plus five additional classes, and plans to go to lunch with her gym friends and have ice cream.
something. I'm going to make sure that I get five additional classes on day 365 because my goal is to just basically move the entire day. I also plan on going to lunch that day. That's how I am going to celebrate. I'm inviting all my gym girlies and boys that want to join me. We'll basically be eating and moving all day. That's the goal. And one person said that I should celebrate with ice cream. And so I think I'm going to do that too. I'm just basically going to have movement and meals. That sets the whole plan of how I'm going to celebrate. And you may not agree with this decision, but I think it's going to be fun. And just having 365 just gets me excited. And leading up to the 365th day, I'm also going to do additional podcast episodes because I think it'd be fun for on day 365 to have episode 100 come out. So that's my silly little goal. That's how I'm going to be celebrating.
Ashley shares her 'silly little goal' of timing episode 100 to drop on day 365, then invites listeners to share feedback at her website before signing off.
