I've been a personal trainer since 2004. Wow, has it been 10 years already? I guess so. So much has come and gone with fitness trends since then. And I'll be the first to admit, I have probably tried all of them, just for kicks. Heck, I've even been put through a body building program before, and I liked it! But times have changed (for me ...
Let’s workout together today, shall we? In honor of WORKOUT WEDNESDAY, I thought I’d walk you through one of my outdoor strength and sweat classes with me. This week we are focusing on plyometric exercises that you can do ANYWHERE, no gym required. Okay, ready to begin? First, everyone gather promptly at 9am outside the gym. Grab a water ...
Okay, I think Spring is here to stay. We hit 80F twice this week, which means we’ve been training outdoors almost everyday. That’s a good feeling (minus the allergies). Don’t be jealous, come June it will be 100F in Texas and I’ll be cursing the humidity and hibernating indoors after 10am. Ha ha. The poor kiwi has to train all day in it, so ...
It’s been a little over a year now since we've had to deal with injuries. This past brought good health, healing, and being injury free for me and the kiwi. That means something. It means we’re doing something right. It may have took us a long time to find that right (rest and injury prevention), but hey, we were humbled, we learned, and ...
Wednesday warm-up. Now there's a literal title for you. Anybody else freezing there behind off yet? What am I thinking, of course you are. I've been doing most of my running outdoors on the trails, and I think my body is finally acclimated to the cold weather. I actually enjoyed a nice brisk trail run yesterday in 22°F. That's gotta to be ...
As I sit here typing this post, but Husband is enjoying a coffee date with a friend. A rarity he gets to enjoy during the season. Usually (during training/race season) this time of day is spent on his bike outside followed up by a PM run, etc. But since he's enjoying his off-season, he can take advantage of mid afternoon coffee dates. And ...

It’s probably a good thing. I’m digging Bloglovin, a simple switch. You can click to follow all your favorite bloggers right here. And ...
This week, it’s in the bag! Taught my last spin class for the week, totally winged it but worked out quite well. And now I am in need of a serious getaway. Like one where you travel to a beautiful destination, hang out with fabulous women, drink wine, workout or not, eat good food, and laugh. BLEND! I’m so there! And I’ve packed ...
So, I have a feeling this week is going to be full of product love and appreciation. I’ve been meaning to this for weeks but just got behind. Go figure. Ha! But really, I want to share some of my (our) “food as fuel” product finds. You see, I am in the kitchen probably 5-7 hours a day. I’m a sherpa wife to a FULL TIME pro triathlete and ...
