Work It Wednesday Workout
This workout was focused primarily on legs. Everyone knows my hamstrings are TIGHT. They stay tight. Well today, my trainer had me working on my hamstrings which must be the weakest part of my body. I tried not to throw evil looks as I worked through the lactic acid but I am not sure I accomplished that. Anywho - this is the workout. ...

End Of Time and Week In Review
First I would like to say I hope everyone had a wonderful time at the Beyoncé concert these past few weeks. All I have been seeing on Facebook and Instagram are amazing photos and glimpses of Beyoncé on stage in concert with her hair blowing throwing down the dance moves. You guys looked like you had a ball and I hear it is one of ...
Blurred Lines and Week In Review
Maaaaannnnnnnnn this week was CRAY CRAY! I was really sick on Sunday which boiled over into Monday. Work was hectic and busy with a major launch and my workouts were sporadic. I was tired ALL WEEK so obviously I did not do my best to stay fully nourished and to get adequate sleep. It is necessary to get the appropriate amount of sleep and ...

July 22 Workout Week in Review
I am still doubling up with Sanders Optimum Fitness workouts along with my personal trainer's workouts. I wish Monte and Heather would talk to each other because this week was tough. I was sore ALL WEEK. When I say sore, I am talking about abs and hamstrings. It took a mile run just to warm up my hamstrings in my boot camp class. OY! ...
All I Do Is Win
Honestly - that is not true. I do not always win or am number one in everything I do. Sometimes I stop trying or I come in dead last. But either way when it comes to this fitness thing I do not always feel as if I have to "win" against someone. I typically compete with myself. I test myself to see how far I can push a weight or how ...

That's how I feel as I map a new route on MapMyRun based on a suggestion of one of our running partners. I have fun 5 miles before and even found a familiar route to run but this is a NEW one. With new ...
Come Here Workout
Woke up at the crack of dawn, dressed in the dark and made my way to Brick Bodies gym in Reisterstown, Maryland. Walked in and waited about 5 minutes for my trainer. Honestly - I was praying she was a no-show and I could possibly just go back home and jump in the bed. No such luck - she finally walks out letting me know someone ...
Fine China Workout
I felt good today. I came entered the gym with energy, had about 24 oz of water to drink before we started and felt "strong". Granted I just drove 8 hours from South Carolina the day before on an EMPTY STOMACH but still had a chance to take a nap, wake up in my own time and move at my own pace. There is something to be said for ...
Wake Up Workout
I don't have much to say other than sleep is essential to the soul and make sure you get in your 7 or 8 hours. I walked in the gym this morning feeling whooped. I swear if I hadn't already paid for these sessions I probably would have stayed my butt in bed. My SOF sisters went running the 5-mile loop at 5:00 am this morning but I ...
Kettlebell and Medicine Ball Workout
If you want to ramp up your workouts then try this amazing medicine ball and kettlebell workout.
What more can I say and you are probably tired of hearing me say it but Heather worked me over on Tuesday. The workout included a medicine ball and kettlebell.
It was challenging but gave me energy. We did a lot of leg work as you will find and it ...

How Many Drinks Workout
Aaaaand I was back in there on Friday to turn it up and turn it loose. I walk in and I am just as chill as I wanna be. I was feeling good. Not anticipating the discomfort from the workout. I came in, stretched and sat down on the bench. Then we got it started and I didn't think about it - I just kept moving as best I ...

Ouch #Workout
There is something to be said for the term "No Pain No Gain". I don't want to think of it like pain but rather soreness. Pain means the body is in some sense of danger or distress. Being sore to me just means I pushed it and now the body needs to rebuild. Welp my workout last Tuesday had me so sore it was ridiculous! She spared no ...
Get ULTRA RIPPED with the MAN OF STEEL Workout
I was fortunate enough to be invited to the movie premier of Man of Steel before the rest of the world. I was shocked to see how ripped Henry Cavill (Superman) got. After some research I discovered his secret for packing on massive muscle in such a short time. Let me share with you my findings.
First, let me state that Henry Cavill worked with ...
