Pin itI’ll just get right out there and say it: I love me a good sports bra. I’m picky as hell, too. I don’t like sports bras with cups, they have to be racer back, and they have to...

Pin itI firmly believe I am the only young adult female who never took a dance class as a child. No ballet recitals for this girl. No jazz hands. No tu-tus. Instead, my mother decided I should play t...
Pin itSeveral events in the past week or so have reminded me that many people perceive working out as a miserable chore. A means to an end. An intimidating means to an end, no less. And let me tell y...
Pin it1. I’ve really liked the fact that Cory has been so consistent with attending his boot camp. The guy hasn’t missed a day in three weeks! When his alarm goes off, he hops out of bed,...
Pin itI have no musical talent. None, whatsoever. I cannot sing, play an instrument, or dance. Someone else hoarded all those talents in the gene pool… Thanks, Joe Fitz While I’m not musi...

Pin itThe other day, I was scrolling through my newsfeed and was struck by the overwhelming negativity of so many status updates. I fucking hate traffic. My life life sucks. I’m going to jump o...
Pin itI read this little ditty on Chelsey’s blog this morning (and she gave credit to Aubry for coming up with this brilliant idea.) I think it’s great! I always hope that people can figu...

Pin itYesterday I got up at an unholy hour to pump it up at Body Pump. It was lame because the instructor did the same exact set/workout from Monday’s class that I also attended. I felt badly f...
Pin itI was home this week for class, and in my childhood bedroom are stacks upon stacks of notebooks filled with my innermost thoughts from the ages of 11 to 23. When I was younger, I felt nerdy for...
