You plank. You #PlankADay. You tweet how many minutes you hold a basic plank. But I’m assuming you also progress your plank? … say what? And of course, you bridge, right? —crickets. While the current trend of planking is wonderful, it’s only the beginning. There is SO MUCH MORE you can and should do with [...]
I lifted weights for almost six years before I opened my personal training studio. Yet, even with all those years behind me, I naively thought none of it had become second nature. I *always* spent time with clients discussing form, breathing, tempo, stretching etc. before we even hoisted a weight. I was aware of [...]
I tried to write this whole interaction as a traditional (if that word can be applied to the mishmash I call my blog) post. I wrote. I edited. I changed. I TRASHED. Each time I reread my writings I felt as though they didnt convey *strongly* enough how I felt (without massive overuse of bolding [...]
(This is the time I grab my coffee. It’s also *after* my morning meditation. Im a lark.) I haven’t always been a morning person (AKA slept like a toddler), but Ive certainly never been a night owl. I pulled no all-nighters in college (be it for studying or in other more liquid hedonistic pursuits) & [...]
(Which total only 5 because G-d forbid I do things the proper way.) Blogging, writing, editing, and (for the most part) vlogging are all pretty solitary acts. I adore what I do. I can get lonely doing what I do. (doo be doo be doo) That’s one of the reasons Im happy to be part [...]
(running tights + running shoes + sporty long sleeve = POSER misfit) Once upon a time, in a land where it was hotter than a motherfucker something really hot, there lived a woman who loved the iron. A twenty year long torrid love affair kind of love. And yet, on those nights when sleep [...]
The golden rule of vlogging (aka video blogging) is never to exceed two minutes. We’re all busy. We’re all skimming rushed. You lose your audience. That important message presented I give you some long ass vlogs Kelly Olexa and I filmed at Blog World. Indeed they’re (fingerquote) too long (unFQ), but despite the fact we’ve [...]
(If I rocked photoshop there would be a hilarious image HERE of us all hanging out) One of my favorite quotes is: Show me the friends and I’ll show you the woman. (no idea who said it & good ole Google proved no help. anyone know?) Ive found this true throughout my life. It was [...]
(my re-found love is now always ready & waiting by the front door) I frequently lament how I dont love the cardio. I do it (for my heart and for my daughter. Im a firm believer once we become parents we forfeit the option of losing our mojo). Yet everysinglesolitaryday theres a huge internal [...]
Ahhh people. Ive rambled ad nauseum about my struggles to find my new kindergarten-groove. Far less than feeling sad & alone & untethered without my sidekick Ive found the newly shortened days (bus pick up at 8a & hardstop to the work day at 330p) have caused more frazzle than floundering. As a result Ive [...]
