A Fit Life: Getting Cardio Crazy

Happy Hump Day!  Does anyone else think it’s crazy that we’re already halfway through July?  Seriously, where is this summer going?  Every year it makes me sad how fast it goes and this year is no different.  I think I need to plan some fun weekend activities so that I can look back on this […]

Blog Me: A Week of Good Reads

Well, another weekend has come and gone and we’re staring at another work week.  How is it that those two glorious days off can go by so quickly?  Last week was a real doozy at my full-time job – like a 70-hour doozy, which is why things were pretty quite around this little corner of […]

Blog Me: A Week of Good Reads

Hi friends, I hope everyone survived the weekend and is gearing up for the upcoming week.  I found out on Friday afternoon that I have an impromptu trip to Chicago in my future – Wednesday to Thursday to be exact.  I wish I could say it was somewhere warmer like LA or Miami, but alas, […]

Nearly to Newly Fit: Fitness Goal Updates

It’s another depressingly cold Monday her in Minneapolis.  If you read yesterday’s posts, you know that school has been called off for the kiddos again.   I still have to work though – the joys of a adulthood, I suppose.  The only thing that’s really keeping me going this winter is the thought that the hubs […]

Blog Me: A Week of Good Reads

I don’t know about you, but I’m really over the weather we have been having this winter.  I mean this whole Polar Vortex thing is really cramping my style when it comes to productivity.  I mean, who wants to go outside when the high for the day if fifteen below?  Certainly not this girl.  Most […]

Nearly to Newly Fit: My Goal to Shape Up

When I was preparing for the wedding, I had a handful of posts dedicated to fitness that had good turnouts amongst the blog community so I thought I would bring those posts back.  Clearly it can no longer be called the “FitBride” series as this girl is no longer a bride… now I’m just the […]

Becoming a FitBride: Get Your Run On

It’s been quite a while since I’ve had a FitBride post, so this week we are back with a cardio challenge and a little throwback to some of my favorite songs! This was a cardio workout that one of our groomsmen challenged his clients to a few weeks back so I know it’ll get your […]

Becoming a Fit Bride: Build Yourself a Six-Pack [of abs…]

Ok, Ok, I know this is the second post Fit Bride post this week, but it’s fitting as we’re getting closer and closer to summer and that means SWIMSUIT season!   So today’s post focuses on one area that I’m always a little self-conscious of when donning my swimsuit – the abs.  Much like last […]

Becoming a Fit Bride: Where’d You Get Those Arms?

You like that title?  It offered up a good chuckle for me… even if I’m the only one. Anyway, today we’re talking all about workin’ out those arms.  Arms are a tricky part of the body to exercise, especially as a woman, because you don’t want to become too beefy/muscular but you don’t want angel […]

Becoming a Fit Bride: Jump Into a Cardio Routine & Dress the Part

With roughly 5 months to go until our wedding, I’m still trying to get myself into a routine of working out on a regular schedule and eating better.  You would think that with my Vegas trip just a few short weeks away, I would have a little extra motivation to get fit and skinny… but […]
