  • WOD with Reflection

    As I was doing the run this morning, I thought how much this sucked. It was cold and I am so sore from 2 days of pull ups. But as much as it sucked, it was awesome too. Here I am getting to workout with a group of strong, funny, amazin women all working on…

  • Living Fit and Sore Workout

    With the special Plumbline session I did yesterday, I was sore -My lower back from the dead lifts and my arms/calloused hands from the pull up session. Living fit and SORE right? HA! I get to Plumbline today and sure enough — we have pull ups on the menu — the joy!! This week is…

  • WOD includes weighted jump ropes

    A shout out to my pal Chandra, pictured in orange to the left — she is taking a 6 week leave from boot camp for some surgery. We are going to miss her terribly. She is one of those people who adds joy and fun to the group and her absence will be noticed! Get…

  • High Intensity Interval Training Workout

    Rain greeted me this morning, and I was thankful that for most of the workout we were inside. We did our warm up outside and then had to the 200m run during the workout. But considering, I will take it! It isn’t unheard of to do a complete Plumbline workout in the rain — it…

  • High Intensity Interval Training is good for you!

    Gutsy Girl’s Adventures: What the HECK????. Look at the pictures Erica posts in this entry to fully see the difference Crossfit/HIIT training has on your body compared to long distance cardio/endurance based exercise. It’s like night and day and a great example of what this type of training can do for anyone –the hard core…

  • Power Workout

    Frost greeted me on my car windshield for the first time this season as I headed out the door this AM. And although I happen to be one of those people that like the chillier weather, I can’t say I like to see signs of it at 5AM. I had to find my car scraper…

  • Run A lot Workout

  • Go Big or Go Home workout

    What a fun morning — a bunch of great ladies to workout with, a hard workout, a crisp fall day. Some may not call that ‘fun’ but I do. Although I did not finish in the 30min time limit — I didn’t quit and finished the workout and was the last one there finishing the…

  • Workout & Paleo Update

    Outside workout on a cold morning — you know it’s not as bad as it seems. It really does feel pretty good within a few minutes of starting the workout and by the time you are done, you have those chills that you get when you are all sweaty but it’s freezing outside. Oh the…

  • Working and Day 15 Paleo Update

    The downpour rain meant we were inside for today’s workout. Today marks Day 15 of Paleo eating and I am still raring to go. I haven’t felt deprived or hungry — that’s because I am eating a lot of food – its just a complete switch in the kinds of foods I am eating. Most…
