Ready to rid your body of the winter insulation? Much like the bears here in Colorado, I too put on some “insulation” during the winter months. I find it helpful because my blood hasn’t thickened to this cooler climate; regardless, I don’t notice it too much unless I put on form-fitting clothes. What is aContinue reading “Five Day Challenge is Almost Here”

You Can’t Out-exercise Your Diet.
“You can’t out-exercise your diet.” Those words pierced my ears at a 5am gym class. It came out of the mouth of one of my favorite instructors. “That is too much reality this early in the morning.” was my initial response. But she was right. I used to squeeze in any cardio to justify anContinue reading “You Can’t Out-exercise Your Diet.”
Motivation
Congrats to the Jayhawks on their exceptional game last night. Both teams made it a night to remember! A game like this leaves me wondering: What was the secret ingredient that allowed Kansas to come back from a 16 point deficit? Was it the powerhouse skills of Agbaji or McCormack? Was it the collaboration ofContinue reading “Motivation”
Dad Bod: Redefined
A friend recently shared this meme with me: While I appreciate the concern for your child’s safety, there are other ways to secure your child 😉 The days are getting longer and the temperature is slowly rising. Will you be confident to go shirtless at the beach in a month or two? If you answeredContinue reading “Dad Bod: Redefined”
Take Advantage of the New Cycle
March 20th brings us Northern Hemisphere folks the Vernal Equinox, aka SPRING!!!! Vernal translates to “new” and “fresh,” and equinox derived from the Latin aequus (equal) and nox (night) (Farmer’s Almanac 2022). This is when I like to set New Year resolutions. You have a break in western holidays, the days are getting longer, and the weather is starting to cooperate (sometimes). IContinue reading “Take Advantage of the New Cycle”
Been Caving Lately?
I wish I was referring to Spelunking, but sadly, no. This has been an emotional month. The state of the world has weighed heavy on my heart. Add some personal losses and looming deadlines…tick, tick, tick, boom: the perfect storm for self-sabotage… I caved BIG TIME. Indulged in comfort food: check. Skipped a few workouts:Continue reading “Been Caving Lately?”
Excuse Manifester
I want to create a Magic 8 Ball, but instead of yes/ no answers, it is filled with excuses for why we don’t prioritize our health. Hit me with some of the great excuses you’ve heard over the years.
Chucking Antelope on the High Chaparral
Chucking Antelope on the High Chaparral I always have an adventure when family visits. My dad flew out solo this time and we decided to hit the slopes. We were returning from a fun-filled day in Breckenridge when we spotted this distressed antelope calf along the highway. “Dad, he’s going to get hit!”, I exclaimedContinue reading “Chucking Antelope on the High Chaparral “
Surgery vs Food Part II
Does it Have to be Either / Or? Thanks for all the responses to the first post. Great discussion on all the concerns that come with this topic! In the first post, I raised a red flag on the fact that I heard 11 erectile dysfunction ads on the radio within a one-hour program. SeveralContinue reading “Surgery vs Food Part II”
Honoring Henrietta Lacks
Happy Black History Month! NPR released an article where I pulled this statement, “This year’s theme, Black Health and Wellness, pays homage to medical scholars and health care providers. The theme is especially timely as we enter the third year of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has disproportionately affected minority communities and placed unique burdens on Black health careContinue reading “Honoring Henrietta Lacks”
