Last week I posted the workout I’ve been doing on Fridays.  In keeping with my tendency to do things backwards, here is my Monday workout.  I just finished a 4 week cycle doing this every Monday.  So this week I be changing things up again.   A. Pike Push-ups – Almost to failure. …I don’t […]

I enjoy coming up with my own workouts and every once in a while I put together a workout I just “love”.  This is one of them.  I’ve been doing this on Fridays for the last 3 weeks and every time I’ve  felt it the next day (and a for few days afterwards).   Full […]

I enjoy using the stability ball. It makes me feel more coordinated than I really am, like a circus performer. Some people tout it as the magic tool for a flat stomach and lean legs. Like I said I enjoy it but I don’t think it’s going to give me Giselle’s legs and I certainly […]

Sprinting is good for you.  Or so I’ve read… This weekend I decided to go to the local highschool track to get in a sprint workout in hopes of carving my log-like thighs into something more shapely like tubas.  I was disappointed to find the local track surrounded my 8 foot fences and locked.  So […]

I love my garage gym.  Mostly because I can dance like a fool without anyone watching but the spiders.  I’m feeling better today than last week.  Hal-le-lu-jah. Hallelujah.  Hallelujah.  The monster from Present Monster Syndrome has retreated to the closet.  Hopefully she stays there. As I’ve said before, I like to do the same workouts for 3 […]

Craigslist has been very good to me the past few months.  One of the things I’ve picked up for cheap is a kickboxing bag.  This weekend I put together an high intensity interval workout using the treadmill and the bag.  It was awesome and fun!  For sure, this workout is going to be a regular […]

This week (and next) is spring break for my kids and we are going camping with a large group of friends for a few days. I’ll probably be eating things I shouldn’t (I signed up to bring chips…DUMB.) and eating more than I should so to relieve some of the guilt I’m bringing along a […]

Hello friends!  Hope you had a good weekend.  I was sort of down all weekend and couldn’t find one good reason to be depressed.  I didn’t even read or watch any news.  It was just one of those days.  But it’s a new week with new possibilities and that gets me excited.  Now if I could just get […]

It’s probably Tuesday for most of you now so Happy St. Patrick’s Day.  Give your hands a workout and pinch lots of people.   Monday was crazy busy for me.  I had a callback for a Sprint commercial I auditioned for last week and we had taekwondo in the evening.  Well for me that’s crazy […]

My gym membership is officially cancelled.  I was sick my last week so I I didn’t even get to use it. Oh well. We scored a fantastic deal on a weight bench, squat rack, and set of olympic weights off of Craigslist.  I’m sooo excited. Ridiculously excited!  Forget about jewelry or shoes…I’m a beast! A […]
