My schedule is ridiculously busy 95% of the time. I work 5-6 days a week, 4 of them being 12 hour days usually. This means that days off that coincide with my man’s days off come few and far between, so when we realized that we had Monday off together, with no other plans, we […]

Electrolytes: What Are They And Why Are They Important?
As I could feel the salty sweat drying on my face the other day while we were driving home from an intense outdoor workout in the sun we stopped at a gas station to pick up a couple of sports drinks to help replenish our electrolytes. It got me thinking about how little electrolyte balance […]

Everything You Need To Know About The Deadlift
Deadlifts are hands down one of my favourite exercises to do if I want to feel strong and powerful. I can’t say my deadlift is really that strong but hiking up a mass of weight from a dead stop on the ground really does something to get me amped for my workout that is following. […]

Best Jeans For Athletic Ladies
Thanks to the genetics from my dad, wrestling for almost 6 years, and leg day being my favourite 3 days of the week, it’s safe to say that my legs and bum bum have developed to quite the size. And thanks to my mama’s genetics and general gym addiction, my thunder thighs are paired with […]
Honey Garlic Chicken & Veggies
I’m quite a big fan of eating… have I made that obvious yet? I love food. And I love cooking (when it turns out well, that is). I’m particularly fond of flavourful, “foreign” dishes. One day I was struggling to decide on what to make for dinner, but I had a lot of chicken, veggies, […]
My Current Top 5 No-Equipment Core Exercises
A strong core is the foundation for a strong body, yet so many people neglect training their core because it’s “boring”, or it doesn’t give them results as obvious as their bicep curls do. Not only is strength improved with strong core muscles, but so is balance and stability, making the tasks of daily life […]
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Banana Bread
More often than not we end up with a few uneaten, really manky looking bananas. I’m a lover of the speckled brown banana but anything past that and I feel like I’m eating straight mush. So, like most people do, I’ve taken to using these bananas to whip up a banana bread. Here’s the recipe […]
