    How To Run (And Actually Enjoy It)

    April 25, 2022 / 2 Comments

    I love to run. No, really. I actually love and look forward to lacing up my running shoes each week.  But it wasn’t always that way. I was a novice to running once and I’m pretty sure we were the worst of enemies at one point. But now? Now we are best buds. Why I Love Running It’s my wish to convert more people into runners. Why? Because running changed my life. It helped me learn to push myself, that I could do hard things. It was the first step to a healthier lifestyle. Running started out as simply a way to get fit. It slowly morphed into a way to compete…

    Love working out at home, but need a change? Or maybe you’re looking for a specific fitness plan to help you reach your goals? I’ve got a great fitness app you can try- the Gofa fitness app!

    5 Simple Tips to Recover Faster From A Workout

    October 26, 2021 / No Comments

    Feeling sore after a workout may be common, but that doesn’t mean it’s enjoyable! Having sore, tired muscles slows you down and can get in the way of your next workout and overall comfort.  There’s also a myth going around that if you aren’t sore then you didn’t workout hard enough. That’s simply not true! No need to chase soreness like a badge of honor. Soreness, or DOMS as its scientifically called (delayed onset muscle soreness) is your body producing a mild inflammatory response due to tiny tears in the muscle from exercise. Luckily, there are some simple things you can do to help you recover faster from a workout…

    5 Tips for More Confidence in the Gym

    January 3, 2021 / 2 Comments

    I definitely know what it feels like to feel a little nervous or out of place at the gym. The first time, the first several times actually, I walked into a gym I felt so insecure. I’m a shy person at heart and thought that everyone was going to judge me for clearly being the newbie at the gym. I wore baggy clothes (which is totally fine btw but I did it to hide) and would go to some corner to workout alone. ⠀⠀ Then I realized that I wasn’t here for other people. I was here for ME and my health progress. It didn’t matter what anyone else thought.…

    When to Take a Rest Day from Working Out

    October 15, 2020 / No Comments

    Confused when to take a rest day from working out? Rest days are a critical part of any workout plan or routine, but sometimes it can be hard to know when you should actually rest or maybe you feel guilty for doing so. (Please don’t!)  Raise your hand if you’ve ever had these questions about taking a rest day:  Why are rest days so important? How often should I take a rest day?  What factors should determine when I take a rest day?  What should I do (or not do) on my rest days? When to take a rest day or how much to rest will differ for each person.…

    Terra Glide Review & A Fun Workout To Try!

    This post contains affiliate links. You can ready my full affiliate disclosure here. Finding at home workout equipment you love and don’t get bored with can be tricky, especially in 2020.  For me I like to find equipment that won’t take up too much room and gives me plenty of options for workouts and staying strong at home.  That’s why the new Terra Glide is so ideal for at-home workouts and keeping it interesting! I’m super skeptical when it comes to trendy workout equipment, but after trying the Terra Glide out for a couple days, I knew it was going to be a staple for my home gym.  To get…

    Simple Tips to Create Your Own At Home Workout Routine

    May 27, 2020 / No Comments

    One of my main goals as a health and fitness expert is to educate busy working women so they can make the best decisions for themselves rather than be constantly told what to do. That includes figuring out an at home workout routine! Of course, there’s nothing wrong with following a guided program from a certified personal trainer or getting one on one training. These are AWESOME tools that can help you with your fitness learning and I encourage it.  However, not everyone has access to these programs or coaches. I hope these simple tips will help you feel empowered to take more control of your fitness at home or at…

    My Favorite At Home Workout Equipment For A Well Rounded Home Gym

    March 20, 2020 / No Comments

    I’ve always dreamed about having the perfect home gym with ALL the at home workout equipment. No more having to wait around for squat racks at the gym, no more smelly sweaty workout benches. Just my own little workout haven! Although my current little home gym is far from what I hope it could be some day, it does the job well. Currently, I have a punching bag that was already there when we moved in, some free weights, a medicine ball, stability ball, a Terra Core, some bands, a suspension trainer, and a pull-up bar. These items don’t take up too much space but allow me to a have a…
