I will be the first person to scold others at the box for not taking proper rest days. I have historically done no more than two, maybe three, days in a row of Crossfit, usually taking off every Wednesday or Thursday and Sunday. I know rest and recovery is just as important as the workouts […]

This week’s spotlight is quite a unique one and one that I am very honored to be able to share, and not just because we share the same first name. 😉 My blog has morphed into something that I am quite proud of and I try to give a positive message about women and weightlifting […]

To keep things interesting during my Saturday morning Crossfit Endurance classes, this week our Coach opted to send us out on a trail run.
