Happy Friday! I have always had a love hate relationship with pull-ups. They are an amazing body weight exercise to work the back and show true strength. But, they are damn hard and require a lot of practice. Before I was pregnant and when I was my most fittest I could rep out anywhere from…
Home Workouts
At Home Body Weight Squat Workout
Happy Friday friends! How is it Friday already? I feel like I say that every week, but that is honestly because the weeks and months have been flying by! I am 3 months postpartum today which means we have a 3 month old baby (yikes!), I have to go back to work (sad face) and…
At Home Bodyweight Workout
Ah, the day after Thanksgiving… do you feel like a stuffed turkey still or have you been up since the wee hours of the morning getting in all your Black Friday shopping? I am not much of a Black Friday shopper. I much prefer to shop from the comfort of my own home on the…
20 Minute AMRAP
Happiest of Fridays to you! How has another week come and gone? I have been getting into the gym more these days which has made my days that more busy so the weeks have been flying by. Last week I made it into the gym 4 days (woot!) and this week I have made it…
Glute Activation and Mobility

20 Minute EMOM Kettlebell Workout
Happiest FriYays to you! It is a gloomy day today, but that isn’t getting me down. I had a big #momwin this morning! Well, a mom win in my book. I pumped for the very first time and got a whopping 8 ounces total AFTER nursing Avri. Boom. Enough about me getting milked, though. Next…
Avri June’s Birth Story
I want to share the story of my delivery of Avri in hopes to inspire other women to educate and prepare themselves for vaginal birth in hopes of having the delivery they imagine. I understand that you can have a birth plan, or birth wishes as I like to call it, and things don’t always…
Kettlebell Metcon
Happy Friday! I can’t believe it is Friday already. Being home on maternity leave I didn’t expect my days to go by so quickly. On a happier note, in two more weeks I can start getting back to the gym and into a workout routine again! I am starting to really crave working out. I…
