Lift Weights Because Therapy is Expensive

Did you know that the gym is one of the best therapists in town? And if you're lucky, it also comes with dozens of friendly people that are looking for a way to burn off some stress too. They'll chat if you want to or they'll zip it up and hustle helping you change weights on your bar. Either way, they're in it with you - and you with them. And let's be honest, sometimes the biggest problem of the day is figuring out how to do barbell math without crying....

Fuel Your Hustle: Sneaking Snacks Into Your Day

Is it ALREADY 3PM? Seriously? Man, that 3PM slump is a real thing. Mine is anytime between 2-3PM. My energy tanks, focus gets a little fuzzy and sound of snack packs or the vending machine becomes almost impossible to ignore. This is where good snacks come in. Forget about the whole “snacking is a guilty pleasure”.....

Confessions from a CrossFit Coach: It’s Easier Than You Think

Let me tell you a secret. People walk into the gym and see the barbells, the pull-up bars, the ropes, and the sweat. They hear the clanging plates and sounds of exertion from people in class. They watch from a safe distance, thinking, “Wow! I could never do that.” And I’m here to tell you, with all my heart: You’re wrong. You CAN do this.

The biggest misconception about CrossFit isn’t about the intensity or the technical lifts. It’s the belief that it’s only for the already-fit, the already-fearless, the already-strong.

My confession?.... (READ MORE here...https://cfefitness.com/blog-category/confessions-from-a-crossfit-coach-its-easier-than-you-think/

If you opened my closet right now, you’d assume one of two things: either I’m an extremely dedicated fitness enthusiast or I’m operating a secret athleisure boutique. The truth is, it’s a little bit of both.

The Shoe Situation

My shoe rack looks like a running store after an earthquake. I have:

“Just for Coaching” sneakers: These never leave the gym. They’re stored at my desk and don’t go farther than in the gym and some occasional 400m runs. I coach anywhere from 2 to 6 hours per day and having a solid pair of sneakers is a must.

“Outside of the Gym” sneaker: There are a few of these for errands and anything outside of the gym and sometimes my “just coaching” sneakers” are retired and come home too. These aren’t beat up old shoes, and they shouldn’t be. Always have supportive shoes!

“Serious Running” Shoes: Worn exactly twice. They’re so technical they practically lace themselves, but apparently, they can’t actually make you want to run.

Lifting Shoes: For Olympic lifting. Yeah!

Super Brightly Colored Sneakers: For motivation of course because bright pink and orange are a must for everyone.

The Great Legging Dilemma

The struggle is real especially for a curvy girl. And pockets! OMG, I love, love, love pockets and they’re tough to find. I prefer them on the side, and preferably two pockets, but that’s a big ask. I can make one pocket work but two would be dreamy when I’m coaching and have to juggle the timer and class check-ins. (Shout out to Sweaty Betty leggings for pockets!)

Sweat the Small Stuff:
How to Find Fitness in Your Insanely Busy Schedule

Does your calendar look like a game of Tetris? Between work deadlines, school runs, social obligations, and the eternal quest for a full night’s sleep, “go to the gym for an hour” can fall to the very bottom of the to-do list pretty darn fast. What if we changed the definition of a workout? What.....

The secret to fitness in a busy life isn’t about heroic, two-hour gym sessions. It’s about consistency, efficiency, and a major mindset shift. Here’s your

Working Fully Remote is One of the Toughest Things I’ve Ever Done

Working from home is great, right? It’s super flexible, you can take a shower anytime (I know I’m not the only one that waits until noon sometimes) and you can multi-task “all of your things.” At first, I was really in love with the idea. I’d already done part-time working from home, so this was going to be a breeze. Month one was amazing! I had pork in the crockpot while I was on conference calls, took mini stretch breaks and walks & the laundry…whoa…I’ve never been so caught up on it – ever.

I don’t know when it happened but the lines between work and life started to blur and then one day I realized...(read more...link in bio)
