How bout that pump reunion last night? I think we

How bout that pump reunion last night? I think we all need a workout to cleanse ourselves ☠️ UPPER BODY STRENGTH 10’S ….. Ask and you shall receive! Lots of upper body requests and tons of ways to do this one (keep reading below for protocol suggestions). Save it, tag a friend, and let me know if you’ll be giving it a go! 💪🏼💪🏼
••
Few ways to rock this protocol. Your rep count is 10 on all of them. If it’s single sided, do 10 on each. If it’s alternating (for instance - shoulder press) count right arm = 1 rep, left = 2.
••
Personal preference: I like to pair these together and do supersets. Maybe 2-3 rounds of each. You could also do all 6 of them down the line and repeat for 3-4 rounds.
••
1️⃣Bicep curls
2️⃣Alt seated shoulder press
3️⃣Split stance single arm row
4️⃣Chest press
5️⃣Tricep kick backs
6️⃣Banded pull downs
••
So if I’m doing it my way - I’ll pair 1+2 together, 3+4 together….. etc. Feel free to make the protocol your own but here’s some suggestions to start with 👍🏼
••
Need modifications? Have questions? Drop em below, I’ll help ya out!

Life lately ☀️ the highs, the lows, and everything in between 😄

I always think things are fun with no context and these are in no particular order - but some tid bits below:
••
⚡️Finished 8 weeks of programming for spring workouts + halfway through some add on weeks. Feeling the strongest I’ve felt in a long time 👏🏼
⚡️Did Murph last week and regretted every decision I made during that workout except for subbing pull ups. This is me 100 push ups in - deciding burpees would be a better idea for the second set of 100 🤣🤣
⚡️We got a cold plunge!! It’s been awesome and I’m really pumped about it. I plunged a lot postpartum and it was super powerful for my mental health. But now that our pool is no longer frigid - I wanted to keep it goin. A massive investment, but a worthy one. Shenanigan cold plunge content coming your way soon IYKYK.
⚡️Matt and I had a car incident on the freeway that kinda f***ed me upppp for a week. I’m feeling a lot better now, but it was so so scary. We are very lucky and it kinda made me take a step back and reassess a few things. This is a photo to remind you that it’s ok to cry till you can’t anymore and FEEL the shit you need to feel.
⚡️Filmed a bunch of new workouts for FitOn in LA! Can’t wait for you guys to try 💃🏼
⚡️Kenney giggles all day baby. I LIVE FOR EM!
⚡️Chopped a few inches for summer and it felt damn good
⚡️Tailgating is the new way we eat dinner so Mom + Dad don’t have to clean the highchair lollll
⚡️This entire video is 🥹 my favorite. Sound UP.
⚡️Kenney started swim lessons. She’s been lovvvving the water lately and getting more comfy in it which makes me happy.

Tell me what’s goin on in your world? Be it good, bad, ugly, whatever - MAKIN SPACE FOR IT ALL! Do you have any June goals you’re working toward?

BACK WITH A HELL OF A BENCH HIIT WORKOUT! This one

BACK WITH A HELL OF A BENCH HIIT WORKOUT! This one is advanced 🔥🌶️ And great for summer travel too because you can typically find a bench somewhere outdoors. Notice how many times you see benches - whether it’s on your normal walk/run route - you’re traveling and don’t have equipment - You can almost always find some sort of elevated surface. Use it to your advantage 👏🏼👏🏼 YOU IN?? (Ew to Bulgarian split squat jumps 😂🙄)
••
Tag a friend, save it, share it and let me know if you’ll be trying!
••
This cutie outfit is @fpmovement and I’m so excited about our run day coming up on the 10th and our first official HIIT pop up event in AZ in July!!! My AZ peeps look out for the sign up on that because spots are limited and it’s gonna go fasttttt 💃🏼💃🏼

All you need is a bench (a sturdy elevated surface of sorts).

We are not surprised are we????? 🤣🤣🤣
••
We joke that Kenney has had zero chill since she came out, but when I tell you she never stops moving - I mean - SHE NEVER STOPS MOVING. That’s maaaa girl.
••
She’s a little firecracker and that’s all there is to it. It’s a 3 - shower - a - day kinda summer because when I’m not working out I’m chasing her around and whew…. She’s not messin around 🥵

Very proud of that ending dismount thank you very

Very proud of that ending dismount thank you very much. To be honest, I’m not quite sure how I feel about Kenney-Pop stealing my Stanley…. But WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH HER CUTENESS YA KNOW??? Dare I say, she likes it more than me? She can spot it from a mile away….and she will let me know about it if I don’t give it to her LOL.
••
We’re about to get into the 3 months I dislike the most in Arizona. Triple digits daily are coming, and while everyone enjoys watching their eggs quite literally cook on the asphalt….. one of the things that is an ABSOLUTE MUST (in my opinion) - is having hydration that actually keeps your water SO cold.
••
I haven’t been the greatest about drinking water postpartum (I don’t know what it is because I’ve ALWAYS been good at drinking water) - but yeah - I went through a solid period of time where I did everything and anything I could to just REMEMBER to drink water.
••
This cup is my damn lifeline with H2O. I don’t know how to describe it. It’s a mix between the cuteness, the….. I can spot you from across the room and actually want to drink you. I can take you with me everywhere. The convenient handle + straw + and keeping my drinks cold for 11 hours, no joke.
••
And I am not a room temp water person…. It has to be ICE COLDDDD. Anyone else like this or just me??? 🤣
••
Ok back to the point. I freaking love my Stanley. Whether it’s on the go, during a workout, for a little morning iced coffee, or while I’m rehydrating after a run - it’s the best. That’s all there is to it. Kenney agrees and she’s a tough critic. You can get the Quencher 2.0 Flow State assortment at @scheelssports > scheels.com (online or in store). Super cute colors and keeps me wanting to drink more water everyday - I swear.
..
I fully get the hype. I was skeptical at first, but I GET IT 100%
..
Do you have one? Do you want one? Is it on your wishlist? Tell me how you hydrate!

HEY TEAM!! We did it 🥳🥳 STRONG IN SPRING 202

HEY TEAM!! We did it 🥳🥳 STRONG IN SPRING 2023 COMPLETE 👏🏼👏🏼 How are you feelin? Any challenge takeaways you want to share?? I have so much to say - I’ll share more below. Currently enjoying a major DELOAD week and it feels freaking glorious! Here’s a little sample deload bodyweight flow I did outside today. LOW IMPACT bodyweight. You down to try? Feel free to tag someone who’d enjoy this 💜
••
Deload weeks are a week of training where you lower the intensity or volume to recover your body. It helps to manage fatigue, and reset for more training ahead. This could be a variety of things you are doing to lower intensity or volume so it will look different from person to person. For me, I’d do less training days and more rest days. More walks, less runs. I’d stick to mostly bodyweight exercises, stretching, mobility, yoga, instead of strength training/HIIT. You get the gist - but lowering the volume - lower impact.
••
I’ve been sharing my schedule this week after we wrapped up the spring challenge. Week 6 workouts got me good (especially that ladder) 🥵🥵 so I’m thoroughly enjoying no timed miles or wild workouts this week 🤣 You can go into my deload highlight where I break down my sched and chat about why having weeks like this in your training is important - so head there for a little more info!
••
Quickly want to congratulate my #STRONGINSPRING crew! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Whether you finished on time, are still workin on it, or had to put a pin in it for whatever reason - I hope you are proud of showing up and jumping in (even if it was outside of your comfort zone).
••
My biggest takeaways from this challenge for me personally:
✅20 minute workouts are KEY
✅Shifting around the schedule to make it work for me is also KEY (hello wild travel schedule during the challenge)
✅Done is done - wasn’t always pretty, but showing up is something I never regretted
✅When in doubt - execute the 5 minute rule (IYKYK)
✅A staple for me, but movement truly does wonders for mental health!!! Enough said.
••
Quickie protocol breakdown: Flow through a couple rounds. Take your time. Rest as needed. Work through it slowly and choose however many rounds is serving you. I did 3!

Being your Mom is the most massive, most rewarding

Being your Mom is the most massive, most rewarding, most scary, most incredible, most breathtakingly beautiful + equally as painful at times job in the entire world.
••
I never knew what it entailed……Motherhood.
••
Never knew what I was doing…….Still don’t 🤣
••
But I wake up everyday and try again.
••
To be the best mama I can to my sweet girl.
••
I fail, I stumble, I cry, I laugh so big it hurts my ears, and love so hard it hurts my heart. It’s all encompassing. It’s been the wildest ride of my life 🫶🏻
••
And it somehow passes so fast. All the moments and in betweens, the monotonous times, the big milestones, the firsts….. it’s like - you constantly want to pause time while simultaneously moving forward to the next phase or transition or chapter.
••
I don’t take one second for granted. You’ve flipped my whole world Kenney Pops and I’m lucky to be your Mama.
••
Thank you for waking up at 2:45 AM to tell me how much you loved me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 she was just like…. Ya know what…. I wanna spend more time with my Mom on her special day LOLOLLL.
••
To all you mamas out there - I see you. I see us. You are f***ing incredible and you’re doing an amazing job even if it doesn’t always feel like it. The invisible load is REAL some days and I’m in awe 🙌🏼
••
To my own Moms! I love you both so much. Thanks you for being integral parts of my life.
••
To all of you who don’t have your moms around, have strained relationships, or are longing to be a mother and that time hasn’t come for reason A, B, or C…. I’m wrapping my arms around you today 💖

NOT MESSIN AROUND WITH THIS BRAID TODAY, but I loo
