Slow Rollin’
Hi guys 😀 How are ya? I’m so stoked that ya’ll are enjoying the Intro to Iron Pumping plan- some of you have told me that you’ve tried a workout already. Lurve it 🙂 Stay tuned for the Winter Shape Up for more fitness plans (January 18, 2010)!
I just want to clarify that the plans I create for ya’ll are by no means meant to cause pressure or anxiety about working out- they’re meant to do the opposite! I like to share information with readers (for FRIZZIE=free!) so that you all can create a workout and nutrition routine that works for YOU! Roll however you want to roll, and my shenanigans and info are here for you to use as you see *fit* 😀
I’ve been a little slow rollin’ today after the fast and furious.
I got up early and had 1/2 a breakfast:
(2 servings of TJs High Fiber cereal and almond milk)
did back and biceps with Jeni, then had some protein:
1 cup almond milk with 1 scoop vanilla Sun Warrior, 1 small nanner and lots of cinnamon
Then I went to Bizzle (aka “Starbucks”) and did 3 hours of work on the good ol’ computadora. I munched a Larabar and drank green tea.. it was lovely 🙂
For lunch, I had a salad beast
Wild Alaskan salmon burger (from the health food store), organic greens, tomatoes, onions, mushrooms, balsamic vinegar and red pepper flakes.
Next, I had three training appointments, came home and laid on the couch while I half-watched Tyra, and now I’m getting ready to go back to work for two more appointments. Ay carumba!
Hope you all are having a great day <3
xoxo,
Gina

Your salad beasts look so good everytime.
I would love to get a break during the day to kick back!!
Can you come to my house and make me a salad? LOL! They always look so fantastic! 🙂
That salad looks good!
Wow…that seems like a lot of training appointments in one day!! Good for you!! And your salads always look so yummy:)
Great point about your AWESOME Iron Pumping Challenge! I like to take bits and pieces and learn new moves from your advice. It helps me enjoy exercise and not stress about getting in every last set 🙂
I love salmon burgers on my salads. Such good protein!
Love love love TJ’s HF cereal and that salad!!
Please come to my house and make me a salad. I live in NZ. You need a holiday. 😉 I have a coffee machine. It’s summer over here.
You make the most amazing looking salads! Im not even a salmon fan and I want some of that salad.
That salad beast looks too good to be true!
Oh wow … another blog reader from New Zealand! I had to comment just to say that. 🙂 (Oh, and ‘Hey, Gina!’)
You have crazy busy Thursdays like I do, too! Aren’t they exhausting? Mind you, I only walk all over campus and sit in class, but still! It’s the traveling to and from the house that’s killer.
Have a faaaab Friday, though! xoxo 🙂
yummy salad! sounds like quite the day…hope tomorrow is a good one 🙂
I just want to tell you how much I enjoy your blog. Each post provides me with motivation and I love that you tend to be so positive. I plan on doing the winter shape up and have been doing some of the exercises from your previous challenge. Thanks again! Bliss and kisses!
You are one busy bee!! I’m tired just reading about your here, there, and everywhere-ness 🙂
Hope tonight is quick and easy and that you have a wonderful Friday!
i definitely enjoy your free advice. i am very knowledgable in the nutrition department but i only know the basics about working out. sometimes even the workouts in self/women’s health are too much for my brain to handle, but your “challenge” is great and it will be easy to stick with, so thanks!
You crazy girl! 🙂 Love the great looking salad!
If you have a chance, I sent you an email asking for help!
🙂 Thanks!
That is one yummy looking salad! I am so excited for the Winter Shape Up! I can’t wait to hear what it’s all about! 🙂
what a great blog. new to it, but will definitely come back.
quick question–why almond milk? is it the taste you prefer? nutritional reasons?
welcome to the little bloggy 😀
i prefer the taste, but i also usually don’t have cow’s dairy and almond milk is a great substitute 🙂
Five training appt’s in one day! Go Gina 😀
Have a great night!
Mmmmm….salmon burger on a salad! What a great idea!
I think your slow rolling is a lot more active than most people’s normal days 🙂 Hope you have a relaxing weekend ahead!
Hey Cousin! Just saying hello and that I’m thinking about ya 🙂
Smoothies looks delish!
Wild Alaskan salmon sounds awesome on the salad beast!
Just wanted to let you know that I love your workout page because I’ve been in a rut lately with my clients and it’s super useful. Thanks for posting some non-traditional exercises. You’re a lifesaver!
Have a great weekend!
Hi Gina,
When I read your posts about working out I always feel like I need to crank up my own workouts! Inspirational!

Thank you for continuing to offer challenges and free programs/info. I did the summer shape up and really enjoyed it…it was a fun mix and I still now intersperse 5:00 cardio bursts between my weight sets. I’ve slacked off though on “gym activity” and for a few months have mainly been hiking, doing yoga, scuba diving and swimming. The Intro to Iron Pumping has gotten me back in the gym, thanks!
Great post.
