Well, if this incredibly late post is any indication, this week has been a struggle! Due to poor planning and overestimation of my stamina—I thought I'd do Monday's workout after landing in Dallas around 10pm—I've been playing catch up all week! Today I'm going to double up and get two workouts in so I can salvage [...]
Alright! Today’s the day I restart the 80 Day Obsession (by Beach Body Fitness) program! As I mentioned in previous posts, I started this program back in March and was blown away by how quickly I was getting stronger and how fast I saw results. This program gave me the chance to be consistent—at home [...]
These past few months, I’ve taken my fitness routine to the next level. I cut out some most problem foods (and alcohol), started working out more often, and have been trying to get more rest—and it was showing! In only a few weeks, I’ve noticed differences in my muscle definition, my skin, my energy levels [...]
Nearly two months ago, I decided to stop drinking.To be fair, I'd "considered" going dry dozens of times before (typically mid-hangover in my post-college years). I'd feel crappy after a few drinks, take a few hours to rebound, and then forget about it. But recently, I wasn't feeling too great after one drink, and a [...]
While I haven’t set a date, I’m setting out to run a half marathon this year! Here are the 4 practices that have led me to longer, faster, more comfortable runs these past few weeks.
Over the past few months, my fitness regimen has all but fallen apart and I’m shamelessly blaming my decision to move home! When I was in Dallas full time, I was never more than a 15-20 minute drive from my favorite studios. I’d use my CorePower membership and ClassPass package to schedule weekly workouts, even [...]
I'm headed into this week feeling really good! After a week full of travel, a few days at my firm's corporate training center, and a Disney movie night with Dazell, it feels like nothing can get me down! My Wellness Goals for the week of August 19, 2018 Fitness Goal: Complete 3 workout sessions or [...]
If there’s any one lesson these nearly eight months of blogging have taught me, it’s that setting big goals for myself is the easy part. I kicked off 2018 with a list of big, bold goals and things I wanted to make true for myself. And though I was thoughtful and intentional in my drafting, [...]
After a long and busy week, I woke up this morning feeling absolutely accomplished—I (basically) made it through the work week, made it to the gym almost every day, and managed to keep my stress levels at a minimum! And what better way to mirror feelings of strength and victory in my yoga practice than [...]
This March, I attended two classes at Y7 during my trip home for my sister’s birthday (the first at the Williamsburg location, the second in Tribeca). This studio is growing at rapid speed in NYC and I couldn't wait to experience a class for myself! Instructor: Tanya Rating: 3.75/5 Newbie Friendly (2/5) If you’re new [...]
