Couldn’t agree more. Leggings for life. The @athleta 7/8 Elation leggings if we’re being specific.

“You haven’t posted much on Instagram.” That’s because I’ve been hustling behind the scenes. Sometimes you’ve got to go quiet and focus 💯 to make the big moves. 😘

Here goes #2020

Instagram post 2212920015816371418_12580275

My Word of the Year for 2020 is ‘Yes.’ Yes to opportunities, to challenges, to risks. Yes to relationships, to trying new things, to stepping out of my comfort zone and into the version of myself I want to be. Yes to no, to hard conversations, to ending relationships and situations that aren’t serving me. Yes to my talents, to my dreams, to my intuition.

My #yearofcolour isn’t what I expected and yet it’s entirely accurate. 2019 was a lot of neutrals. That’s how I feel about the year of high highs and low lows. Here’s to a lot more pinks and brights in 2020.

I really love cycling the barbell so I decided to do a clean + 2 hang cleans for 3 sets today. I maybe sandbagged the 50kg... Back to having @silky_stankle tell me what to do and training for the @crossfitlocal Be My Valentine meet next week now that my wrist has re-joined the team and the holidays are over. Been an adventure this last month, working around an injury and travel.

I posted my homemade @starbucks medicine ball in my stories and got alllll the DMs for the recipe, so here it is: (save for later!)
.
Recipe:
💦 3/4 cup of water
🍋 3/4 cup of lemonade (I used the “light” one)
🌱 Mint tea (I’ve got @tazo Zen)
🍑 Peach tea (@celestialtea country peach passion)
🍯 Honey
.
Bring water and lemonade to an almost boil, remove from heat, drop the tea bags in, cover, and let simmer for a few minutes.
.
Remove the tea bags, stir in the honey so it dissolves. Pour into your favorite mug and enjoy!
.
I think a slice of lemon would be great in it, too. Use honey to taste - more for sweet, less for more tang.
.
I swear by this concoction. I’ve been battling a bad cold for a few days and this perks me right up.
.
Save this post and let me know if you try it!

Decided to do 9 man makers for time because @crossfitlocal made it sound like a good idea. 3:40 with 35lb dumbbells. My row form wasn’t *quite* where I’d like it but I was favoring my wrist a bit as this was the first day I moved heavier weight since getting cleared by ortho to ease back into it, but happy with it. My condition isn’t completely shot at any rate. 😂 But I’m going to stick to my barbell.

I started an argument in a Facebook networking group last week. Someone asked for reviews on a popular mass market fitness program. Others immediately chimed in with their MLM products or their other mass market fitness programs and, well, I got involved because that mess drives me insane as a fitness professional.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I let the original poster know the program she was questioning is notorious for encouraging two workouts a day and the meal plan is grossly low calorie. And while I was at it, I reminded the good folks of Facebook that supplements are not regulated by the FDA and most of them are crap anyway.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
War broke out. Someone wondered what "qualifications" I had to back up my statements. Well, Carol, glad you asked. Especially since this was in the midst of @AnnieMiller.co writing about her qualifications and telling us to do the same.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My (paper) qualifications:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
@AceFitness Certified Personal Trainer since 2016⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
@ACEFitness Nutrition Certification since 2017⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
@PrecisionNutrition Level 1 Certification since 2019⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
@BarredStudio certified since 2015⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But. More than that, Carol, I'VE BEEN THERE. I weighed 250+ once upon a time. I lost weight, got healthy, and became an athlete. But not because of a mass market fitness program.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I tried 'em. I tried 'em all. I had some success here and there, but it wasn't until I cleaned up my diet, started sleeping more than 4 hours a night, and picked up a barbell that I got to where I am now.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And, I learned - and continue to learn - from my coaches. Coaches need coaches. More on that later though.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My next certs in 2020 will probably be @USA_Weightlifting Level 1 and/or @CrossFit Level 1 because I like to learn and I love to coach and I've got coaching goals over here. But my top qualification will always be my own experience.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So yes, Carol, I am qualified to make those claims. And to coach women towards happier, healthier lives. No mass market fitness plan needed.
