  • Getting in Shape—the Soldier’s Way

    Weds is my rest day — and I seem to be detoxing from the wheat/gluten. I’m super tired and fatigued and just feel overall sluggish. Kind of like not having a cup of coffee. Getting in Shape—the Soldier’s Way – WSJ.com. Instead of indulging in the holiday-season office cookies and after-work cocktail parties Kristen Silverman…

  • Squat Thrusts

    It was tougher to get up this morning than yesterday. Getting back into the swing of things is tougher day 2 because your body had no idea what was coming on day 1. Add in about 100 pull ups, some lunges from yesterday’s workout and you have the recipe for staying in bed.  That’s when…

  • Pull Up Party Workout

    Plumbline boot camp is back in session — it was a full house today and it was great to see everyone. A week off means missing some of my pals. I maintained my weight this week which is good but also surprising if you think about how much I was working out. I really don’t…

  • Gold’s Gym Workout

    I headed to Gold’s Gym this am. It’s a bit farther than I normally would drive for a gym but since mine is undergoing renovations — i figured what the heck. And as predicted, it was super crowded with Resoluters — which is great because maybe some of them will actually make a permanent change…

  • Murph Workout at Crossfit

    When someone says ‘nope, no running outside in the winter’, I tend to believe them. Apparently I am naive  because I got up and went to a WOD at Crossfit Impavidus. And what to my wondering eyes should appear? 2 half mile runs OUTSIDE! I did get to sleep in 45 extra minutes – so…

  • Call me Larry Bird Workout

    Met up with the ladies again at LA Fitness for our week break from boot camp at 6A. We did a good overall routine – WOD 2 rounds (12-20 reps/round) 70lb back squat bicep curl 30 chest press 20lb back lunges 25lbs 10 burpees 20lb step ups Corex2 plank push ups back extensions crunches 30…

  • LA Fitness Workout

    Got up and headed to LA Fitness to workout with my boot camp pals. I am so happy I made plans to meet people there. It’s way too easy to just sleep in when you are off work and have no commitments for the day — Stac! had a rough night of sleeping,  but she…

  • Workout Fun

    I skipped my workout yesterday — I was worn out from the holiday and just needed a rest. The mental game I play though sometimes makes skipping not worth it.  I start to feel the guilt of every bite I eat and then the thoughts of am I am slipping into the abyss. I know…

  • It’s all mental workout!

    So I headed to boot camp at 545a this morning, even though I worked out last night. It’s part of my routine – I can’t help it! But I definitely felt the impact on my energy and strength. Next week boot camp is off – so I will probably head to Gold’s to get some…

  • Split Jerks

    My trainer has asked me not to post the workouts I do with him anymore. He puts a lot of time and thought into creating them to maximize the workout and make it efficient. They are his creation so he prefers that people that who are interested in working out with him – try a…
