Stick to it!
Right?? Stick to it! Consistency, hard work & patience – all critical in everything worth pursuing.
Who wants buns that defy gravity?
There was a lot more but not possible to fit it into 15 seconds. And no, I’m not lifting super heavy here..still being careful & building up strength since my glute/hamstring injury is not 100% yet.
Happy Friday!
Trying new things
WARNING: Music plays 🙂 (Click the image at the right to play video)
(I say this in case you’re at work or near a sleeping child.. Believe me, I remember those days.. “Everyone zip it please!!!)
Anyway, I love to try new yoga & gymnast things even tho I’ve had zero training in either one..I just get inspired by all of you! So if this inspires you to try, pay it forward & challenge someone else!
Luckily fooling around with new fitness stuff & posting on social media is called “work” when you’re a Beachbody coach. Why did I spend so many yearrs in HR at a desk working to build someone else’s business?!

How do you measure progress?
Do you measure progress from the scale? Or clothes fit? Pics?
I’m a firm believer in taking pics as 1 way to measure progress. Fitness is an every day journey for me, with struggles & bad habits to overcome like anyone else. But I treat every day like a new opportunity to prove something to myself, learn something new, feel uncomfortable or pain & try again. Never Never Give Up.
If you’re afraid of gaining too much muscle, as you can see from the right, it’s a toned look when you’re not flexing. If you’re afraid of the new number that muscle shows on the scale, ditch the scale. It’s a deceiving liar most of the time anyway.

Who wants sculpted arms??
Sculpted triceps look good on EVERYONE!
No weights needed:
- Hanging Tricep Dips
- Tricep Push-ups
- Traditional Tricep Dips
Do each exercise 3-4 sets and 8-20 reps each set (until you absolutely cannot do another with good form). Add tricep pushups on your knees or on your feet as well!

Did you make time for YOU today? How?
I workout for MANY reasons but one of my favorite reasons is because I feel amazing when I’m done.
SWEAT = Liquid Confidence

What was your workout today?
Shoulders, spin & run.. DONE.
Sometimes you need to give your body a rest & other times you need to give your EXCUSES a rest.
What was YOUR workout today?
You’ve heard it a million times.. It’s not easy but it’s WORTH IT.
p.s. There’s still time
I didn’t work out yet…
ARE YOU WITH ME?
On these baseball tournament weekends, I really need to wake up EARLY if I want to fit in a workout.
Well…this morning I overslept. But I don’t give up on fitting it in SOMEHOW. As accountability, I’ll report back when I do!
Yes, I take a rest day when I feel my body needs it.
