Does anyone else think arm workouts are a relief from their normal workout schedule? I love dumbbell-based upper body workouts because they somehow feel like less effort since I’m not doing cardio or doing heavy lower body exercises. Don’t get me wrong, though, I’m always sore AF after doing upper body workouts. Speaking of being…
52 Cards to Fit Workout
I have QUITE the workout to share with you today. It was actually inspired by Carrie Underwood’s new workout app called Fit52. I just finished reading her new book a couple weeks ago called Find Your Path, and it has completely revived my love for the Deck of Cards Workout concept. Except, I actually like…
Double Duty Workout
I tend to heavily rotate through about 3-5 workout routines for a month, and then I get bored and feel the need to create something fresh and new. For quite awhile now, I’ve been loving my Total Body Sculpt Workout and Getting Stronger Full Body Workout, but I was craving something different and possibly shorter…
Workout for Weak Glutes & Hips
I originally started this blog with a running theme, but ever since I developed IT (iliotibial) band syndrome four years ago, running has been pretty nonexistent in my life. I’m not going to get into that story, but if you want to read more about my experience, check out my running after IT band syndrome…
My #1 Tip for Sticking to a Workout Schedule
Of all the tips I’ve shared on how to stay committed to a workout schedule— whether on here or in person to friends—there’s one in particular that I swear by. It’s the one change that made my unstructured and infrequent exercise turn into a legitimate routine: logging workouts. I’ve been logging workouts online for over…
Strong Legs Weight Lifting Workout
If you’re in the market for a burn-so-good leg workout using weights, you’ve come to the right place! I’ve been getting bored with high-rep workouts lately—they just seem to drag. on. and can be particularly boring. Since a lot of my leg workouts (even those using weights) have more reps than I usually feel like…
Getting Stronger Full Body Workout
The right set of exercises can completely transform a workout. If you look through all the circuits I’ve created over the years, you’ll notice I like to use a lot of the same exercises (squats, bicycle crunches, and pushups are some of my favorites). There’s a reason for that… The way certain moves challenge my…
Total Body Sculpt Workout
Ever since Pinterest started offering board inception—AKA, adding sections onto board pages—I’ve been organizing the crap out of certain boards where chaos has started to ensue. One of those is my “Gettin’ My Healthy On” board, which is just…anything I’ve blogged about that I deem pinnable. One of my favorite Pinterest sections I’ve created so…
Biceps and Triceps Workout
Weight lifting, I heart you. I created this workout routine a few weeks ago when I was craving a bicep- and tricep-focused challenge. It most definitely did the trick because the next day I was intensely sore. Burns so good! As you can see by the image below, this workout revolves around 4 supersets. In…
Upbeat Workout Playlist
I’ve got some upbeat music to get you pumped up for your workouts this weekend! I feel like I haven’t shared a playlist on here in forever—probably because I usually make them for running (which isn’t happening much the past few years thanks to my IT Band Syndrome). The last playlist I created was my…
Killer Core Workout
Do you ever just crave to challenge a certain body area during a workout? I sometimes get like this, usually because I haven’t focused on the area in awhile. Well this past week, I was really in the mood for an intense core workout. I wanted a bunch of burn-so-good ab exercises in one crazy…
Chest and Back Weight Lifting Workout
Even though it’s been a short work week, I’m more than ready to enter weekend mode. Matt and I are starting our weekend by going to an 80s cover band concert tonight. I’m kind of STOKED because I love all things 80s, despite being more of a 90s child. Bahaha. Since the weekends tend to…
How I Did LiveFit Trainer Without a Gym
When I was first considering the LiveFit Trainer, I knew I would be doing it without a gym. Since I wouldn’t have the equipment the program revolved around using, I knew it would be a challenge to find alternative exercises using dumbbells or other at-home equipment. Well good news. If you want to do LiveFit…
My Results and Thoughts on LiveFit Trainer
Just over three months ago, I decided to begin Jamie Eason’s LiveFit Trainer bodybuilding program. I had never focused on weight lifting this much before, so I was stoked to try a new type of challenge. The program taught me a lot, and I would 100% recommend it. If you’re curious how each phase went, specifically, you…
LiveFit Trainer Phase 3 Recap
Today is a magical day!! Not only is it Friday, but it’s also the day we get the keys to the condo we just found out we got (read: we’re moving). Oh, and I completed the last workout in the third and final phase of the LiveFit bodybuilding program!! These last four weeks have been…different….
