Chalk lines.

If you decide to compete in a figure competition you will need a sparkly suit or two depending on the federation you compete in.  You have a few choices on getting a suit.  The most sane (and pricey) choice is to buy a new custom suit made just for you.  You can also buy a [...]

Valleys and Views

Mar 18, 2009 Author: jennincat | Filed under: Best of GH, Motivation

  Stories of sadness, fear, and loss are surrounding us during this unstable time.  It seems to me that many people are walking through “valleys” right now.  I was thinking about this today.  I don’t like being in the valley. I like being on top of the mountain.  It’s a much better view.  But I [...]

Full Body Workout

Mar 16, 2009 Author: jennincat | Filed under: Full Body Workouts, Workouts

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 [...]

What’s your why??

Mar 11, 2009 Author: jennincat | Filed under: Motivation

I admit it.  Sometimes I look through celebrity magazines in hopes of coming across some celebrity secret fitness secret.  Gwen Stefani eats what???  I’ll also admit saying things like, “I’d look that good too if I had a chef and and trainer.”  It’s been and sometimes still is my excuse.  Don’t let anyone tell you [...]

Protein Cookie Dough Recipe….Sort of.

Mar 10, 2009 Author: jennincat | Filed under: Recipes, Snacks

As you know, I try to stick to whole foods.  I do have one weakness…okay not true…I have A LOT of weakness but one that I don’t think I’m willing to give up…protein powder.  It’s just so darn convenient and it’s really easy to make things that tastes like treats.  For instance A Good Idea Pudding [...]

Scrawny Beasty Sprint Workout

Mar 9, 2009 Author: jennincat | Filed under: Cardio, Workouts

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 [...]

Do you doodle or do you draw?

Mar 6, 2009 Author: jennincat | Filed under: Best of GH, Musings

Each day we can look at our goals as a fresh sheet of paper. Everyday we each get so many hours to fill our blank sheet of a paper with drawings.  I must confess I struggle with getting started.  More often than I’d like to admit I doodle meaningless little squiggles along the edges just [...]

Codeine, Chicken Soup and Prince Charming

Mar 4, 2009 Author: jennincat | Filed under: Health and Food, Recipes

I learned three things this past week.  One I’m codeine intolerant.  It made feel like I washed down 2 pounds of broccoli with 4 shots of vodka then got on the teacup ride at Disneyland.  It lasted for miserable 36+ hours, the dizziness is still lingering. Seriously, it’s that bad.  Worse than the flu itself. Secondly, I came [...]

20 Minute Treadmill Workout

Mar 2, 2009 Author: jennincat | Filed under: Cardio, Workouts

Generally I work hard at being a positive person.  Until I get sick.  Last week I got the flu and rather than write whiney posts about how bad I felt I decided to lock myself up in a dark room and feel sorry for myself.  Good times.   I’ve been posting a lot of strength [...]

I’m sort of behind in pop culture. Hence a post referring to the Oscars two days after the ceremony instead of one. It’s actually sort of pathetic how little I know about pop culture. I thought Hannah Montana’s hair was really blonde until my son informed me it was a wig.  And this was after [...]
