  • Air Squat Drill

    I forgot to mention that we also did a 4m extra session at the end of the workout: 4m 20s air squats 10s rest Rest meant you held a squat position — the pain you feel is quite something really! I’m ready for a nap already today!

  • Overhead Squats

    I had pizza this weekend — and once again, I find out how much it’s not worth it. I mean when I am eating it — i think, totally worth it. But the after effects, not so much. But for some reason, I don’t seem to remember that when the time comes to make the…

  • Hi Ho, Hi Ho – it’s off to nature we go…

    I had a really fun Friday night – I went over my friend Sara’s house – who invited me and our friend Anu for dinner. It was so nice to chat and laugh with them. Both of these women really inspire me in so many ways – that I am so thankful for being in…
