I’m so excited to introduce you to a new Girl Hero! Meet Elisa! Elisa has been married to her husband for over 6 years and is a certified personal trainer and HKC kettlebell instructor. She was recently diagnosed with MS after being misdiagnosed with Guillain Barre. It’s been a rollercoaster but through it all she […]

I’ve worked out at some of uncommon places. That’s the beauty of kettlebells. I’ve worked out in parking lots, in the kitchen, and with dinosaurs. But this was the first time I’ve ever worked out with Texas Longhorns. I have a feeling that it might be my last too. We spent three weeks traveling through Texas. […]

I’m skipping ahead a bit. Texas was the next workout I filmed after New Mexico. But I’m still in the holiday spirit and the last workout I filmed has a holiday feel to it. I mean there are bells. They don’t jingle but they are red. And best of all there is snow. Beautiful white […]

Happy 2012! I love the New Year. It’s a chance to begin a new adventure and to evaluate our choices of the past year.  What worked? What didn’t? Are we headed where we want to go? There is something fun about hanging a new calendar and seeing all the empty pages just waiting to be […]

It hard to put into words how much fun we’ve been having on the road. That’s not to say it’s not without its hard days.  I’ve found myself, once or twice, curled up on Brent’s lap crying my eyes wondering what the heck are we doing. The day we visited Carlsbad Caverns National Park was […]

We left our home in Ventura with almost everything we owned in tow behind us four weeks ago yesterday. It’s been a whirlwind of adventure for sure.  We hadn’t planned to go to Nevada so soon but we had an emergency stop that put us right at the border between Arizona and Nevada. While our […]

It’s Girl Hero time again! This Girl Hero is extra special because she is my sister-in-law.  Kristi is a hairstylist and mother to three wonderful boys!  Her and her husband Garrett enjoy being outdoors and cooking together and, boy, can they cook.  Seriously, Thanksgiving at their house is nothing short of AMAZING.  This spring Kristi […]

I finally filmed (and edited with the help of Thing 1) my first workout of the 48 workouts I’m planning to film while we travel this year and uploaded it to my brand new YouTube account. This workout was done in Yosemite National Park overlooking Half Dome about an hour before sunset.  This location is […]

This morning I was scrolling through twitter and saw one of my kettlebell buddies tweet, “911 swings done”. My heart sunk. This evening, I headed to the beach alone with two kettlebells to do 911 swings in honor of those who lost their lives 10 years ago today. In Honor of Heroes Workout – 911 […]

Hello!!!! Today is going to be a short post (aren’t most of them…I try anyway ) because I’m on my way out the door to coach my kettlebell class and train clients. First, I wanted to say that today is a The Great Fundraising Act Auction for Susan who was diagnosed with Lymphoma a few […]
