Sweaty Sunday Recap: Week of April 14

April 22, 2013

Writing these recap posts makes me so sleepy if I wait until Sunday night to put them together! Probably would make the most sense to do them as each day goes on, but really by the time I get home from the gym most days the last thing I want to do is get in […]

NSV: Running 3 Miles

April 21, 2013

Many times women (and men) choose to use the scale as a measure of progress. And for those who may have a lot of weight to lose, this may be the easiest and most logical thing to do. But the rest of us, as I talked a bit more about in a recent post, we […]

Fashletics Review!

April 19, 2013

There is no doubt that I love Crossfit (shocker, I know!) and lifting. So anything that is geared towards Crossfitters, I am automatically drawn to. When I first started seeing the “Live, Love, Lift” logo around the blogging world, I wanted to find out more.

Learn to love yourself.. the rest will fall into place.

April 17, 2013

On Sunday I had an opportunity to attend the taping of the final reveal show for a couple on Extreme Makeover Weight Loss Edition. They are a local couple who have worked out with the trainers from my Crossfit box (pretty awesome!), and who committed the past year to transforming their lives for not only […]

..the weekend I worked a stripper pole

April 15, 2013

I am working on being open-minded and not being so judgmental in how people choose to live their fitness lifestyles. While of course, I think Crossfit is the only way to workout (kinda, sorta, okay, I really do), I do respect those that do things like the Beachbody programs, or Zumba. Heck, I even have […]

Sweaty Sunday Weekly Recap: Week of April 7

April 14, 2013

If all of my weeks keep going like they have been, I’m going to be a Crossfit queen pretty soon. I hit a couple more PRs this week and despite having one crummy workout, I managed to put in three WODs, two Endurance classes, and an Oly Lifting class! Sadly, not much running this week, […]

Paleo Pancakes with Paleo Preserves – Review

April 12, 2013

Of the million and one definitions you may find of “paleo”, one that has stuck with me from when I completed a Whole30 was that paleo-ifying desserts or other “bad” foods doesn’t really count as paleo. But who could resist paleo pancakes? I think if I’m using paleo ingredients, it sure as heck counts as paleo in […]

Lady Lifter Spotlight: Natalie!

April 11, 2013

Another week.. and another awesome lifting lady to share! This week’s spotlight is short and sweet, but that doesn’t mean that Natalie isn’t one strong mama! I found Natalie through the Sweat Pink network and one of the things that stood out most to me is her passion for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Team […]

Why I Won’t Buy In to the DietBet

April 9, 2013

I have seen a recent phenomenon in the health and fitness blogging community called the DietBet. Some of my most favorite bloggers are participating in this challenge, and a couple are even leading their own. Basically, participants dish out some amount of money (average is $25), and it gets collected into the DietBet pot. The challenge runs for 28 days, and anyone that […]

Sweaty Sunday Weekly Recap: Week of March 31

April 8, 2013

It’s finally April! And sadly, winter has not officially left us here in Michigan. A couple of days lately we made it to the 50s, but it always seems to go back to frosty mornings. This week’s supposed to be a bit nicer, but of course with warmer temperatures has to come rain. Can’t have […]
