TRX Freestyle

kneestretches I hate to tell you because some of you will think I am a wild woman (well maybe a little of that assumption would be quite true) but I love this video workout demonstrating the freestyle use of the TRX.  It actually mirrors many of the moves I use in my own personal workout on a weekly basis; minus of course the pullups.

Delicious Clean Eating at the Green Kitchen!

If you think health and fitness are only about throwing the weights around, riding or running for cardio and tuna-chimole  sweating through that hot yoga class, believe me you are missing 90% of the point.  What you put in your body is as important and crucial to your body as moving it.  For that reason, since I love flavors with my clean food I am SCREAMING about the goodness of the new Chimole Salad the Green Kitchen has prepared with fresh fish.

Do Nothing?!

Doing Nothing It is pretty amazing. The damage we can do to ourselves without even being present in the process. I work extremely hard at helping other people work hard on themselves. I pride myself on the consistent, hard work I do to my own body. I admonish others to work to their own limits and set a mean example of exactly that in my own work.

Whether it be strength training in the gym, Pilates in the studio, or my feeble attempts at following my yoga instructor, I try to work with high quality, excellent form and love pushing myself to that end to achieve the best results for the time spent at work. Read the rest of this entry →

Healing the Body with Pilates

Pilates is all about breathing, moving and building your strength; one breath at a time.   To heal and correct a body’s old habits requires re-training and re-education of motor control.  This involves new postures, movement patterns, mobility concerns and muscle imbalances. The Pilates method is a graceful, yet rigorous form of addressing each of these areas.  Private session training helps one to learn and work towards removing painful postures, correcting faulty movement patterns, improving mobility where needed and increasing stability where required.  In a studio setting, student and teacher work together to create an environment for optimal muscle balance and function.

Collagen + C = Unstoppable Energy

I think the Collagen I & III that I am taking (with Reservatrol) each morning for the past 4 weeks is doing not only wonders on my hair growth but my nails, skin glow and big time on my energy levels.  So much so that I actually think it’s an ‘upper!’  Gesh! Read the rest of this entry →
