How to Get Rid of The Sweat Smell on Your Workout Clothes
I’d like to think those “I don’t sweat, I sparkle” t-shirts are true, but let’s be real – we’re all getting pretty darn sweaty and gross during a workout. I don’t know about you, but I’ve definitely had some of my workout clothes start to smell not-so-fresh over time. After some research on how to…
Pyramid Workout (a sneak peek into my online bootcamp!)
My online boot camp participants have been killing it the last few weeks. They are tackling 5 workouts each week – 3 strength training workouts along with 2 cardio workouts – and are also changing their eating habits through the meal plan they receive {which leaves space for occasional cookies and wine, thank you very…
Black Friday Themed Workout!
I feel like when it comes to Black Friday, you’re either super into it, or not at all about it. I happen to be the former, and have loved it since I was a kid and first went out with my mom. I’m pretty sure we waited in line to score a Furby for my…
Arms, Abs & Cardio Circuit Workout!

Clock Out Knock Out Boot Camp Workout!
I started teaching a new boot camp this week at one of my corporate sites, and I must say – I’m having a blast. I love boot camps because each workout is different and you never know what drills, games, or activities the instructor has in store. One of the workouts I used last week…
The Wedding Songs Workout
Is anyone else getting a big influx of wedding invites? It seems like this must be a big year for a lot of my friends and family! I’m really excited for the ones I’ll be able to attend, and a little sad for the ones that are out of town that I probably won’t. I…
How many calories does a pound of muscle burn? (Hint – it’s probably less than you think!)
How many calories does a pound of muscle burn each day? I’ll tell you the quick answer now: it’s 5 to 7 calories, which is probably far less than most people think. But don’t throw out strength training just yet! Let’s back up a little and break down this concept… Muscle Calories vs Fat Calories…
