One of the most common questions I get as a personal trainer is “how do I get rid of this?” or “how can I make this smaller?” Typically, my answer to these questions is that you can’t spot reduce. The most problem areas seem to be the back of the arms and the core. Lately though, I have … [Read more...]

Self Coaching For Mom
When my clients reach their fitness goals, I always tell them thank you for involving me in their success. Once committed to the outcome, anyone can reach their wellness goals.

For the Health of It: Medical Motivators for Mommies
There are very few people in North America who don't know that exercise is good for them, but knowing it's good for you doesn't always translate into doing what's good for you.

Milestone at the Gym
Something amazing happened to me today. I was at the gym, trudging through my bi-weekly workout (that gets harder and harder as my belly gets bigger and bigger), and approaching the end of my session. I always leave my abdominal and core work till the end as it's that portion of my … [Read more...]

Enough Already! Oh, and Cleanse Days
I was thinking the cleanse days were going to get to me but they have been a breeze compared to my daughter's pneumonia scare and, then yesterday, my car "incident". Let me elaborate.
