Hello! Just a friendly reminder that the scale doesn’t tell the whole story. I started IF on November 12th by doing 18/6. This chart I’m posting shows the last 6 weeks of my journey. You can see my weight has increased, but because I also calculate my body fat each day, I am able to see the weight increase on the scale is due to increased muscle mass (I lift 2-3 times a week).
Keep those measurements and progress photos consistent. They tell much more of your story than just the scale alone. ❤️
It’s TRX Tuesday 😍
You guys, this may be my favorite TRX move to date. It’s a single-leg (pistol) squat to single-leg reaching RDL. This hits your quads and entire posterior chain (glutes, hamstrings, calves, and low back), while engaging 💯 core muscles. As a bonus, you also get a great lat stretch as you reach your arms forward. I’m in love!
Upper-body + core challenge
If you can hold a plank for at least 2 mins and have good shoulder health, I challenge you to try the following:
20 plank dumbbell passes(10 per side) - place dumbbell on outside of your hand, reach through and pick it up (no throwing or dragging) and place on the outside of your other hand. Repeat.
4 dynamic planks (low plank to high plank), Alternating sides after 2
20 shoulder taps (10 per side) keep hips from sinking or elevating.
Who’s in???
No gym or equipment? No problem! Here are several exercises you can do with just a chair.
ETA: This is not meant to be done as a full routine as is. It's meant to give you ideas that you can incorporate into your own routine. If you would like to make this a routine, I would alternate upper and lower body exercises and would do 2-3 circuits of 15-20 reps each with minimal rest in between exercises. Rest 1 minute (or until your HR comes down) and repeat.

Yep, it’s that time of year again! Time to get refocused, make smart eating choices, and move that body!

I am seriously loving my Instant Pot and how easy it is to make meals. This recipe is a keeper, although I would maybe halve the salt content.
I just toasted up a tortilla in my tortilla bowl and added chopped tomatoes, spinach, yellow peppers and a sprinkling of feta cheese. Yum! See the recipe below.
