I write this “Week in Training” post with little T-rex arms that wish I were smart enough to ‘talk to blog’ instead! I like to start every week with a word of INTENTION and focus for the week of training. This week, that word was STRENGTH! I haven’t felt this STRONG nor this…
DetailsAs I share some FUNctional training tips here on the blog, I’ve decided to go to my clients for their two cents for this week’s content! I became a Certified Personal Trainer with NASM back in 2012. After having my own journey, partially working with a trainer, I knew that I wanted to know…
DetailsI’ve decided to start posting my weekly training as a means of accountability and to share tips from what I’ve learned over the past week! It seems like it’s been only a few months since we had The Mini Trainer, but she’s almost a year and a half. Life seemed to take a nosedive…
DetailsPerspective can change everything. I don’t know if anyone else is like me (cough, cough) but I can be Debbie Downer on some days. When the odds are stacked up against me and I feel “It’s not fair” I can feel the desire to crawl into a dark hole creep up within me. Whenever I…
DetailsFitness has taken on many shapes and forms throughout my life.

DetailsWhen it comes to training and workouts, I’m sure we’ve heard the mantra “Not every day is race day” a few different ways. Even still, we get sucked into the habit of hammering out every workout we do. Before we know it, we have an injury due to overuse or over training and are sidelined…
DetailsYou’re not the only one; I almost spit out my sip of water too when I read that title. “30 Day Sex Challenge” seems miles away from any sort of title I would dare even write or share about. Let me preface this post by saying I teetered on sharing our challenge with you wonderful…
DetailsMany of you know my story, so the chances of becoming a mother were far from my mind for most of my life. Even while I was pregnant, I never really wrapped my brain around the sh**-plosion about to take place that would forever change my day-to-day life (in a very good way.) I took…
DetailsIn the beginning of the year, I wrote a post about my focus on a ONE WORD goal to help keep my focus aligned and zeroed in on ONE WORD in all areas of my life. Many of us were gung-ho with a list of goals we wanted to see happen in the new year,…
DetailsLiving on the West Coast now means we miss our east coast access to Walt Disney World yet would be closer to Disneyland! K enjoyed her first jaunt to Walt Disney World just a month or so ago and I shared our experience HERE. After the holidays passed, we planned to meet up with some friends…
DetailsLiving a balanced life that focuses on health and fitness also means taking stock in the season of life you’re in at any given moment. This is a lesson I’ve had to repeatedly place myself back into it seems over the course of my 30’s. I’ve had to sit myself down and repeat over and…
