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 ...
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 ...
Take a Seat Gym Workout
Want to tighten and tone your lower body? Then try these gym workouts to get an amazing burn.
YAY today was leg day ----- NOT! I couldn't catch a break with Heather my personal trainer today. First she had me picking up my own weights for this gym workout!
Told me it is about time I go and get my own weights.
She normally picks them up ...
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 ...
It’s National Running Day
Hey everybody! Today is a cool day - it's National Running Day. Get out there with some family and friends and have yourself a run in celebration of this special day. I made a cool badge from their Facebook Page.
How do you like mine?
Have fun today!!!!
I met up with my running Fitales and we made it happen at 5 am and 5:30 am! We did 5 ...
Captain Chair #Workout
Folks, I am back in the gym with my personal trainer Heather Brooke Malone Wolf. It was on today!!! Have you ever looked at yourself and felt you could look better? I know push the negatives aside and focus on the positives. I am sore so that IS a positive! A good sore of course. You know trainers can help you push you through your ...
Shoulda Let You Go #Workout and Week In Review
I guess you have figured it out by now I am naming workouts after songs that I have felt the need to use as my power songs for that week. I am not really hip to all of the latest R&B music out there because I basically listen to CNN in the car, but when I do get an opportunity to hear a new song with a LIVE beat - I find out what it is and ...
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 ...
30 Minutes of Funk #Workout and Week In Review
This week was a very busy week when it came to my workout. I travelled back from Virginia late Sunday and ran around very early on Monday so Tuesday we got things back to some sort of working order. Plus my diet over the weekend was HORRIBLE so I had to get back on the grind to work it out which I did.
Monday
No fitness activity
Tuesday
I was ...
Who Needs Medicine?
I work for a health insurance company and every year we have an opportunity to decrease our annual medical benefit premium by participating in a biometric screening. They measure our cholesterol, triglycerides, glucose, BMI, and blood pressure. I signed up last week and silly me forgot I had it this morning. I drank my green smoothie with ...
Where Have You Been All My Life – Polar FT4 Review
If you have been following this blog you know I had an HRM I used that gave me less than stellar results. You would also know I have been participating in boot camp since like August 2012 and am still in my last session (I plan to take a break for April). Anywho - based on reading so many other pages and posts, I finally found a heart ...
