The Importance of Exercise During Times of Mental Stress

May 6, 2025
Well, hello there Fitness Friends. Since I took a blog break last year, I’ve made it a point to come back around to exercise and movement and how they relate to wellness. That doesn’t mean that I am going to completely stop talking about the benefits to other Dimensions of Wellness that exercise provides. And

Training, Exercise, and Movement

April 22, 2025
Hello, hello! Fitness Friends, I’ve got the teacher hat on for today’s post. I believe language is important and there are lots of words that get mixed up, stirred together, or inadvertently misused in fitness land. It’s been a long time since I’ve covered this, but sometimes we all need a refresher, so let’s break

April 8, 2025
Hello Fitness Friends! I can hardly believe it’s April and if my sump pump is any indication there will be lots of things blooming next month.

Resistance Band Guide

February 25, 2025
Fitness Friends, how are you? As I was planning some content, I was clicking around my site and realized that I have never posted a guide to resistance bands. The one who mentions, nay praises, them endlessly. So, we are going to remedy that right now.

If You Aren’t Bored…

February 11, 2025
It’s February, which usually means something very different for fitness and exercise related goals than it does for human relationships. The funniest thing is, while New Year’s tends to get all the attention, this month is actually where gains are made and habits cemented. I want to address an issue that I see play out

Build a Useful Home Gym on a Budget

January 28, 2025
Hello, hello! Recently I talked about consistency being an unsexy practice that can really make a huge difference in a fitness journey.
