I’m not a hater, I promise. I know I rag on the online fitness industry regularly, but it’s mostly because I want people to see that it’s not all as it seems. I AM part of the online fitness community (on a very teeny scale), and I appreciate most of the things that bringing health […]

Food is not the enemy. It’s summer (yes, I’m still clutching onto it with all that I have) and it seems that everyone falls into the “gotta get a slim summer body” trap. Same, honestly. Around June I started making small changes in my diet to make it a little “healthier” and less calorie dense. […]

Best Gym Leggings For Every Budget
If you’re anything like me, you own an far too many pairs of leggings. I practically live in them. Given that I’m in the gym 5-6 days a week, it’s fair to say that I go through a lot of leggings each week, so I need a big (if you ask my boyfriend, he’d say […]
