It’s been a little while since I’ve posted any workouts so I thought it was time for a new one! Since I’m a runner, I mainly use running as my cardio. But I’ve heard that some people don’t actually enjoy running. If that sounds like you, this cardio workout is for you! This ladder-style workout…
How to Restart a Healthy Lifestyle
If you’ve been reading my posts for any length of time, you’ll know that I’m a huge proponent of the 80/20 rule of eating. That simply means that I strive to eat at least 80% clean all the time. That allows room for those times when I don’t want to pass something up – like…
Simple Tips to Start Exercising
I’ve heard every excuse in the book about not exercising. You’ve probably heard them too (or….gasp….said them yourself). How about “I don’t have time”, “I’m not good at running/swimming/yoga/whatever else”, “I’m too tired”, “I have young kids”, “Exercise is boring”, “I don’t like to sweat”. Any of these sound familiar?

Hate Working Out? Try these 3 Things
As a fitness blogger and coach, I hear all kinds of excuses about why people don’t like to exercise. And believe me, I’m not one to judge – I’ve probably said many of those same excuses at one point or another. I knew I should be working out regularly. I mean….it’s good for your heart, your…
This week in training #1
I’ve been a little lax in reporting my training on the blog but I’m going to get back on track now. I have still been working out, just not as much or as hard as usual for the past couple of weeks. Life just got in the way and I’ve had a lot of negative…
50 Reasons to Exercise
Looking for reasons to exercise? I think by now we all know that we should be exercising because it makes us healthier, which makes us live longer. But that’s kind of a generic statement, don’t you think? So generic, in fact, that it’s not enough to motivate people to get moving. You don’t have…
