Leggo #Workout and Week In Review

I'mma be honest - this week was a wee bit slow. I only worked out 3 days this week! EEK can't remember the last time I did that but this is NOW the most recent time. I remember in the beginning of my workout journey I was aiming to work out 5 days a week at least and NOW I can't imagine working out less than 5 days a week. My how times ...

Took It To The Pavement

As you may have just read I had a weekend filled with poor eating habits and very little sleep. A recipe for disaster when it comes to maintaining optimal health. I took it outside today and hit the pavement with my bestest running buddy and neighbor. She is always down for an outside run and exploring new and longer routes. Today we did ...

Q.U.E.E.N. #Workout

Today was my second day back with my personal trainer Heather and it felt good. The gym was a little muggy and humid but other than that I think I am quickly getting back into the groove of things. You see last month I traded working out with weights twice a week for boot camp which is rigorous workout with a bunch of cardio that helps to ...

With that said I started going back to my personal trainer at Brick Bodies - Heather and it was like I never left. We worked it today and she worked ME! In only 30 minutes I burned close to 200 calories and ...

On the show one of the characters had plans to make a video about "donkey booties". Her term for plump, fat buttocks which is a trait often associated with women of African ...

My New Normal

I have been working out regularly since 2008. I started working out regularly again then because I went out with some friends, one of whom I hadn't seen for a year, and she looked FANTASTIC. Small waist, petite physique ... all that. I wanted to learn how she got that way. I found out she had been working with a personal trainer. I knew ...

If You Didn’t Come To Party

Then you should go home. That is how it is in boot camp. If you didn't come to work hard - why come out at 5:30 am at all? We don't come out there to sit on the wall or the bleachers. We come out there to WORK! Today was no different. Thursdays are normally toning day and that means we focus on hand weights and upper and lower body ...
