Beginner strength training mistakes I made (so you don’t have to)

Beginner strength training mistakes I made (so you don’t have to) Sharing a list of those “live and learn” kinda moments. Hi friends! I hope you’re having a wonderful morning. I have a couple of appointments today and then it’s the mom uber shuffle later this afternoon. Today, I wanted to chat about something that comes up all the time with clients and in DMs, especially from women who are just getting started with strength training: “I’m working hard at the gym, but I’m not seeing results.” I feel this in my soul, because I’ve definitely been there. When I first started my fitness journey, I was super motivated, consistent… and also making quite a few mistakes that were slowing my progress way down. The tricky part is that a lot of these mistakes are things we’ve been taught to do (especially as women in the early 2000s fitness era… anyone else remember hours on the elliptical? I used to prop my textbook on the elliptical and *study* as a I pedaled my little heart out) Today I w...

High Volume Low Calorie Recipes

High Volume Low Calorie Recipes Sharing a roundup of high volume low calorie recipes if your goal is to increase your fiber but not your total caloric intake.  Hi friends! How are you?? I hope that you’re having an amazing week! I’m busy with client calls today and hoping to sneak in a Peloton work. Has anyone gotten rid of their Peloton membership and continued to ride the bike without the classes? I’m debating it because I have SO many fitness subscriptions. Today, I wanted to re-share this updated post about volume eating and share some of my favorite recipes that are high in volume and flavor, but still light and refreshing. Ever finish a meal and feel like you barely ate? You’re not alone. When you’re trying to eat a little lighter, hunger can sneak up fast. That’s why I love high volume, low calorie recipes. You can eat generous portions that leave you feeling full and satisfied, without overdoing it on calories and feeling like you need a nap afterwards. Whether you’re wo...

Summer Tick Season Is Here: How to Prevent Tick Bites and What to Do

Summer Tick Season Is Here: How to Prevent Tick Bites and What to Do If it feels like tick season starts earlier every year and lasts longer than it used to, you are not imagining it. Across North America, experts are warning that ticks are becoming more active as temperatures rise, winters stay milder and outdoor exposure increases. That does not mean a dramatic movie-style invasion is suddenly sweeping the whole continent, but it does mean that in many regions, the risk of tick bites is becoming harder to ignore. Ticks are most active when conditions are warm enough for them to leave the ground cover and begin searching for a host. Public health guidance in both the United States and Canada highlights spring through early fall as the key risk period, though ticks can remain active outside that window when temperatures stay above freezing. That is why more people are being told to think about tick protection much earlier in the year and not only in the middle of summer In North Ame...
