Upper Body HIIT Blitz
Hi friends ๐ Glad you all got a laugh from our fail of the week (year?). I’m still snickering about it. Monday was pretty good to us. Liv and I ran errands and shared a Jamba Juice, went to her baby gym class, the day ended in bubbles: and last night, I got the chance…

The first time I heard of plank workouts, I thought they might be a waste of time. Planks over 10 seconds allow you to “cheat,” so you’re not only using your core- your shoulders, legs, biceps, booty, everything starts to kick in when the abs quit. Then I realized that instead of thinking of it…

Hi friends ๐ Thank you for all of the Caro tips! I can always count on you for great advice- just ordered her some antler treats to chew on since latest object of destruction was a bamboo spatula. Last night was girls’ night: Liv, myself, Bella and Caroline. ย The Pilot has his Master’s class on…

A few fitness tools that can be deceiving: -playground balls (they look nice and whimsical, but can make your thighs feel a fiery fury) -the Stairmaster (it’s easy scoff at the ‘master since you’re moving slowly, but it’s one of the most challenging cardio workouts for me) -kettlebells (before I really knew how to use…

“One song workouts, one song, to make it less boringโฆ.” (holler for Rentโฆ or really bad rewrites of “One Song Glory” Something as small as a playlist has the power to make my workout full of sweat, triumph and victory, or just ruin it all together. For some people, the tunes don’t seem to matter…
Read More →Green everything + Killer Cardio Circuit
I’ve mentioned before that I tend to suffer from workout accomplishment amnesia. This means that I’ll run 10 miles and then a week later, on my long run day, I doubt my ability to do more than 3. It shocks me that I was able to do such a long distance the week before. Anyone…

One week in and I’ve already dined out.. during Dine-In December. It was a long day at work and I had no idea what I was going to cook for dinner, feeling a little apprehensive after the tempeh fail. A good friend asked me to join her for dinner after Liv was already in bed,…

That’s the only title that came to mind.. so I’m just gonna roll with it ๐ Not only are other people going to be thinking that when they see your results, but that’s how you’ll feel after each workout: proud of yourself! And ready for a shower. This workout is meant to be completed circuit-style…

Whew! Woke up feeling a little sore from yesterday’s long run. I’m definitely still breaking in the new Brooks, and while I like them so far, they don’t have the same mold-to-my-feet feel that the beloved Asics had. (Which is to be expected since I’d been working out in the same Asics for almost a…
