little etiquette goes a long way...

Regardless of where you workout, a little etiquette goes a long way! For instance, if you're out for a bike ride, don't scare people by riding right behind them, willing them to move out of your way, or darting out from behind then, causing them to jump! Use your bike horn or warn people what side you're coming up behind them.

training...

It wasn't what I expected, working with a personal trainer. As I mentioned before, the only stories I had heard about personal trainers were total horror stories and scared me to my core! I was unsure about the costs of using a trainer. But after a few minutes my brain was smart enough to see that the long-term benefits were going to far outweigh the monetary costs! Besides, I had all this hard-earned cake money.... Why not spend it on something important? Me!

getting started...

While I have always considered myself to be and active person - running, dancing, playing soccer, engaging in all kinds of crazy workout videos, etc. - I got to a point where I hit a wretched plateau. It's as if the strength I knew I had in the inside just wasn't matching up with how I looked on the outside. Knowing that made me feel frustrated, down, and hard on myself for not doing "enough".
