Living a Life Fueled by Healthy Food and Fitness
As I hopped on the treadmill this morning and pressed play on my iPod, Will Smith’s “Getting Jiggy With It” started blasting which you know made my 20-minute cardio session fly by! I completed the following workout: Minutes Incline Pace 0-5 8.0 4.0 5-10 1.0 6.5 10-14 1.0 7.0 14-15 1.0 8.0 15-20 8.0 4.0…
At the gym this morning, I took a cue from Ryan and decided to incorporate some intense incline walking into my treadmill workout. I wasn’t feeling particularly creative, so I asked him what workout he was doing and loosely mimicked his plan. Ryan began at an 8.0 incline and increased the incline on his treadmill…

I’ve downloaded many songs from Glee, but haven’t watched more than one episode. I’m starting from…
Guess what my gym did? They changed the instructor of favorite boot camp class. Such a bummer! I will really miss Allyson’s energy, creative workouts and her music selection. Her music was on point and always had an amazing beat that I could get lost in as I pushed my body during the class. The…
