2 favorite weight circuits

Lately I’ve been loving myself some free-weight circuits.  Now that my knees are finally feeling better (clearly they are glad I didn’t run Hood to Coast even though I was not) I’ve been doing some sort of circuit at least two times a week…on a non pilates reformer day.  I have yet to do aContinue Reading

From pin to plate + killer legs

Pinterest has seriously become my go-to place for recipes and I pinned this one on there what feels like months ago (if you don’t know about Pinterest then I’m pretty sure you’re living under a rock. Go there now and thank me later).  In fact it may have been one of my 1st pins.  ThereContinue Reading

Pilates Jumpboards + Easy Dijon Chicken

Today was jumpboard day in pilates. While I love jumpboard day my legs think it’s pure torture.  I love doing pilates on the reformer and I give it 100% credit for my arms and abs.  I could never lift another weight or do a sit-up for the rest of my life and as long asContinue Reading

Strawberry oatmeal + little black dress prep

Tonight is the wedding of two very awesome people and I can’t wait to celebrate. It also concludes what we’ve been referring to as the “wedding gauntlet” (3 weddings in 3 weekends) and I’m going to be really happy when they’re all over.  I’ve absolutely loved celebrating the biggest moment in my friend’s lives butContinue Reading

Snack Attack

Can we just talk for a minute about this amazing snack I had yesterday?  I mean, like seriously the best thing ever.  Are you ready?  Have I built up enough suspense?  Are you totally dying to hear what I’m going to say?  How about an iphone edited Instagram photo instead? (side note – I’m obsessedContinue Reading

Working out on vacation

I think I seriously have summer on the brain.  “Summer” in the Pacific Northwest really doesn’t start until the 4th of July and the calendar says it doesn’t start until June 21st, but my brain will always associate it with June 1.  June = Summer.  And with summer, comes vacations.  And with vacations come lessContinue Reading

What to do with a BOSU Ball

Are you excited that it’s Friday?  Do you have any fun plans for the weekend?  We’re staining the deck today, and tomorrow we’re going wine tasting with the in-laws.  I can’t wait!  Plus it’s still sunny here which has to be some sort of record especially because the sun is supposed to stick around atContinue Reading

I have jello legs

My inner thighs are killing me.  Is that even appropriate to say out loud?  I mean like I’m hobbling down the hall.  Awkward. Why you ask? Well, on Monday I went to a pilates reformer class and only one other person showed up so it was basically like having a private lesson.  We flew throughContinue Reading

Thank you Jillian

So Tuesday night I did Jillian Michaels’ killer buns and thighs.  I’ve done that DVD a couple of times, usually level 1 so I switched it up and tried level 2.  It was definitely harder – hello 1 legged squats! and then there were a couple lunge combos I couldn’t do because of my kneesContinue Reading
