This title perhaps sounds grander than it really is, because I don't have any crazy big goals for 2024. (I mean, I'm not trying to qualify for the Boston marathon like someone I know is! 😉 SO excited for her on this, by the way!) My fitness main goals are: 1. Keep strength training regularly.… Continue reading Fitness goals for 2024 and new strength program

I ran!
Today I did something I haven’t done in a LONG time: I ran! On the treadmill, because it was very cold out and let’s not get too crazy. I really need to do more cardio. You all know I am Team Strength Training, and I feel pretty strongly that strength training is the secret sauce… Continue reading I ran!
Late night post
Sneaking this in at the last hour! Can't miss a day in NaBloPoMo. I just got home from the gym about 20 minutes ago. It's currently 8:59 p.m. Inspired by Kelsey on the recent Girl Next Door podcast, I have been really trying to get a little creative with my workout schedule. On their great… Continue reading Late night post

A recap: Workouts, life and my week of August 14th
A little delayed, but here's my recap for last week! This was Week 3 of my August workout plan. I managed to technically complete all 5 strength workouts, though one of them was shortened and done at home. Monday 8/14 This was Ethan's first day of school and I knew we had a busy evening… Continue reading A recap: Workouts, life and my week of August 14th
A recap: week of 8/6 workouts
Another solid week of workouts! Is sharing these recaps here the secret sauce? Wait, am I an obliger and not an upholder as I thought?? 😁😝 I actually had a few hiccups this week; I had to skip Wednesday/ insert my rest day in the middle of the week, and I subbed a home workout… Continue reading A recap: week of 8/6 workouts
A recap: week of 7/31 workouts
Shall I try this again?? It was both fun and motivating to write a workout recap last week, so here's round 2! Monday I started out the week in a bit of a stupor after having been away most of the weekend. I felt good, just kind of groggy and slow. No early morning walks… Continue reading A recap: week of 7/31 workouts
A recap: last week’s workouts
Since I'm trying to re-establish my consistency in the gym after a wonky summer so far, I thought it might be motivating to share a workout recap. This format is 100% inspired by Jenny's weekly workout recaps (which I love). (I love her blog in general. I don't know how it wasn't on my radar… Continue reading A recap: last week’s workouts
No Gym Fridays
I am trying to get back to consistency with my workouts, but I had a little revelation this week: The gym doesn't really fit in very well on Fridays. This is kind of one of those things where I kept trying to force a square peg into a round hole. *I should clarify- the gym… Continue reading No Gym Fridays
Flexibility: a question
I have a question about flexibility. And no, not flexibility as in what I might normally talk about in this space- the flexibility to work from home, or work/life balance, or things like that. I am literally talking about flexibility, of your body. Is it actually possible to really improve flexibility??? I feel like I… Continue reading Flexibility: a question
