January 2015 Cardio Playlist (+ Musical Cardio workout)

Hi! How’s the day going so far? I taught a fun BODYPUMP class and took Liv to her gymnastics class, which is basically the cutest thing I’ve ever seen in my life. The Pilot and I are into our little detox, and while the day has been relatively normal for me, it’s also my “chocolate…

Best songs for interval training

Hi! How’s the day going? Hope you’re having a great one so far.  It was a beautiful day for a picnic! We met up with Jessica, Whitney, and their kiddos for a playdate at the park. We brought snacks to share, the kids had a blast playing, we got to chat and catch up, and…

“Spin it to win it” playlist + SD adventures

Hi guys! How’s your day treating you? We’re enjoying a relaxing afternoon after a fun morning at the San Diego Zoo. (Meerkats —> Lion King —> this honest trailer) It’s my MIL’s first time in San Diego (and first time at the Pacific Ocean!) and we’ve been taking her to some of our favorite spots.…

30 minute cardio playlist

Hi guys! How’s the morning going? Hope you’re having a great day so far! Last night I taught spin, which was a lot of fun. It also felt like an ideal amount of time, because it was the first half of a spin/TRX combo class. (Not able to teach the TRX portion right now.) The…

Musical Cardio Playlist + solo spin sesh

Hi! Happy long weekend! Hope you fun plans ahead for the holiday. We’re grilling with friends and hopefully I’ll get to do a little paddleboarding adventure. 😉 I’m also teaching spin again! When I taught last week, I was super nervous -it had been forever since my last class but decided to go in there…

Musical Cardio Workout

Morning! How’s your day going? We replenished a small amount of the weights stash last night. Pretty much everything made it here to San Diego without a hitch, but we’ve been unable to track down my dumbbells. My 35 lb kettlebell made it, along with my jump rope and spin bike, but I like having…

Spring 2014 workout playlist

Hi friends <3 I finally took my first studio yoga class since we’ve moved here, and I’m pretty sure it’s one of my new yoga hOMes. Many readers have recommended Happy-U Namaste in Ocean Beach, and I knew that I wanted to give it a try. It’s right across the street from my beloved Tiki…

Back at it + a new Zumba playlist

Afternoon pho. The best kind 😉 Pho hack: I saved some of the broth from takeout -they always give us extra- and added cooked chicken, more cilantro, sriracha, and boiled TJ’s rice noodles. Speaking of the chicken, it’s probably the best chicken I’ve ever made. This is the recipe. It’s super easy, makes the house…

“Burn it to earn it” playlist

Hi friends! How has your Monday been? Livi and I ventured to Whole Foods for juices,   and then to the eye doctor to get my eyelash situation figured out. The verdict? Small cut on my eye, likely from the eye pad. Drops for 5 days, which means glasses for 5 days. Womp wooooomp. I…

Half marathon playlist

For the half marathon I didn’t run. I’m supposed to be finishing the race as this post goes up, but instead, I’m at home drinking coffee after a nice night of sleep. I’ll never know if I would have crossed the finish line triumphantly, because in my mind, I pictured myself hobbling to a medical…

Running-only playlist

Hi friends! How is your Sunday going? I’m so stoked to spend it relaxing. Absolutely nothing on the schedule, and it’s our first full day with the three of us home since our return from Italy. My body is also grateful for a down day after yesterday’s running and teaching extravaganza. Before work, I met…
