When was the last time you bit your tongue and took a giant step back? Did you overhear a discussion at the pub that was patently ridiculous? Maybe someone left a rather rude and untimely comment on your latest blog post? What are some other situations that you finder rather hard not to intervene and say something?
Our message today: Take to heart the knowledge of things that are in our control and those that are not. What happened yesterday can stay there, in the past. And who knows what will happen tomorrow … Right?!?
The Plan-
The Workout-
Find a nice comfy spot outside and give this one a go:
High Knee Skip … for a little bit
Crossovers … for just a little bit
Butt Kick Sprint … for a spell
Thread the Needle Reverse Lunge … for a fair amount of time.
When all is said and done? Go out and do what you enjoy the most!
Notes:
Have a brilliant day and ENJOY!!!
The Gift That Keeps on Giving
Posted: September 3, 2012 Filed under: Random Workout | Tags: crossfit, exercise, fitness, happiness, health, hipster, Labor Day, life, love, lululemon, pilates, recovery, rest, smile, whole foods, yoga 12 CommentsWorldly pleasures seem so very tiring, Like the allergic weed that itches on contact. It itches if you don’t scratch, but it hurts if you do. It is like mocking a dumb man-
Did you take the time to relish the simple pleasures over this long Labor Day holiday weekend? Did you avoid the salacious lure of consumerism during the time you spent out shopping?
Today instead of trying to make up for something we missed this past summer, let us practice contentment: Knowing that enough, really truly can be enough.
The Plan-
Simpler times indeed …
The Workout-
Rest Day of sorts … Try something new on for size and see how you like it today. Report back with your results in the witty comment section below!
Notes:
Wrapping up a four day weekend can be tough, goodness! Rest up peeps, the remainder of the week may get a bit bumpy … ENJOY!!!

Summer Thoughts In a Field of Weeds

Take a look around you this morning and please pay no attention to the wash in the corner. Each one of you reading today is blessed with the power to start your own Salud Revolución! Standing in queue at Trader Joe’s or Waitrose? Walking around the local market comparing yourself to others? Changing a dirty diaper or even getting a ride in a tow truck … At any moment we can change how we think , speak and look at our own bodies.
Let today be the day that you don’t allow the scale in the bathroom dictate your mood for the rest of eternity. Let today be the day while chatting with some old friends during lunch that you talk in a positive fashion about how you view your body. Finally peeps and we cannot overstate how deeply this next thought resonates with us: Chin up, you’re inspiring!
The Plan-
The Workout-
Warm Up as you see fit until a thick hardy lather forms all over your body. Followed by:
50 Goblet Squats (Heavy – Ish)
100m Sprint (Out and Back – Sprint in every sense of the word)
40 KB Hard Style Swings (Find a weight that feels snappy!)
30 Goblet Squats
100m Sprint
20 KB Hard Style Swings
10 Goblet Squats
100m Sprint
Feel free to mix and match the movements as you see fit. However if you perform this program more than one time through? The second time you start with the KB swings …
Notes:
Have we beaten this Life – You message into the ground enough over the past month? Good! We could really write about this subject for ages … Here’s why: That little nugget of grey matter between your ears is rather tricky and down right evil at times. Sabotaging your hard work at each and every turn. A whole months worth of posts summed up in 16 words …
Meditation: Quiet the mind. Reflection: Being fully present. Forgiveness: A starting point. Hope: YOU are amazing!
We change course and sail against the wind this coming Monday, are you onboard and fully present?!? Cool … Have a wonderful weekend* peeps and ENJOY!!!

Time to kick off our shoes and slippers! For all the long time – first time reader peeps: Thursdays here are Rest Days for the body, mind and soul. Sit back and be sure to grab a tasty beverage … Let the buffoonery begin!
Yet another reason why Australia is quite possibly the coolest country on earth (California is a close second):
The Plan-
Ladies … Thoughts?
The Workout-
Rest Day … A dab of Yoga + A Brisk Walk = Heaven.
Notes:
Tomorrow will you choose to separate yourself from the herd and be bold in your actions?!? Good, we’ll be here waiting for you with a nice simple message … ENJOY!!!
