I had the chance to try out Vibe Ride the last time I went to Atlanta and it was an unmatched cycling and bootcamp experience. The technology and ambience were unlike anything that I experienced in a spin class. After the spin class, we migrated upstairs to a workout studio for a bootcamp class. Now, whenever I go to Atlanta, I must take a Vibe…[Read more]

I picked up a new herbal tea…ginger and honey which seems to be really good at clearing up an upset stomach. For the same effect, I’m sure you can also put some fresh ginger in a cup of boiling water, allow it to soak, and sweeten the cup with some honey and sugar.

YASSS!!! I finally made it to two days in a row after almost two months of inconsistency — did 45 minutes on the Treadmill and some planking! 😁

Confession: it\’s been a struggle getting my exercise routine to be consistent. Today was my first day back; I did body weight strength training for a little over 45 minutes and burned over 200 calories. It felt good!

Back at it with the light work…did a DVD and some spinning – 202 calories burned! (D2)

In truth, it’s been forever since I exercised. Today I did some light work — 20 minutes on the spin bike and 20 minutes on the Treadmill.

Dinner: potatoes with “vegan” ackee. Vegan Ackee recipe – https://healthaffixed.com/vegan-ackee-or-ackee-no-salt-fish-tha-original/

Look what I had at Southern Spice! Definitely worth a try. 1920 Tyler St, Hollywood, FL 33020

Back on the grind. The goal is 5 exercise sessions per week. Today, I did 35 minutes on the Treadmill to get back in the game! Shout out to @donnablair for the motivation. Let’s do this!

Thanks to @shadiablair, I was craving quesadillas today. Went by Chicano Mexican Grill (4528 N University Dr, Lauderhill, FL 33351) for this vegetarian quesadilla. Delicious!

Thank you @kisha22 for your hospitality and delicious food all weekend! Case in point: these grilled lamb chops and shrimp! They were bomb.

Workout has plateaued. I haven\’t exercised since last Sunday! #nobueno I\’m going to try to get a workout in tomorrow – we\’ll see!

When Shaun T comes to town, it’s a major event!! I went to two of his events in Miami and had a great time at each event. Core Power sponsored both events. One was inside and one was outside. Both events consisted of his introduction, a warm up, workout, an inspirational speech about his experience, and a…[Read more]

Dunn’s Run – Broward County florida

Dunn’s Run is a 5k walk/run with a 5-mile run option that takes place at 7 am on the first Sunday of October at Deerfield Beach. The run benefits the Boys & Girls Club of Broward County. It’s a challenging course which takes you through the streets and across the bridge. The view is good and it’s been a very well attended event…[Read more]

I did this event in Miramar back in 2016 and it was very good! Consider showing up early for the warm up. The 3k run/jog is a light pace non-competitive jog and walking is permitted. The course is on the blocked off street and through a small community park. The atmosphere was family friendly and there were all kinds of activities and vendors…[Read more]

Thank you, @donnablair for the invitation to visit Orange Theory! Today’s workout was ESP (endurance, strength, power) and it got me to 97% of my maximum heart rate. You get a heart rate monitor that shows you how hard you’re working throughout the workout on the gym’s big screen. Overall, I had a great workout and it was very challenging! The…[Read more]
