50 Shades of Glutes

Hey, hey! My Tuesday got away from me…one minute I was making tea in the kitchen at 5 a.m. and then I blinked and it was 8 p.m. and I was standing in the same spot prepping dinner.

Today was jam packed with client training sessions, teaching yoga, a 2-hour extravaganza at the dentist (ugh…two cavities filled…recommitting to my Sonicare and twice daily flossing) and some QT at the Y for the first time in forever (for my own personal workout too…double awesome)! Minus the dentist experience, it was a great day.

I have a lot of great stuff coming up to share with you this week…get ready for posts about how to pre-order my plank book (!!!!!!!), my experience starting to juice, my review of the resort we visited in Punta Cana, a cool opportunity for my fellow fitness pros, Valentine’s Day food and workout ideas and more!

But for today I have some really fun 50 Shades of Grey workout inspiration to share.

50shades-glutes-8b

In preparation for this week’s launch of the 50 Shades of Grey Movie, SELF Magazine is hosting “50 Shades of Glutes” on their workout page. How awesome is that? Every day this week they are posting 10 glute enhancing exercises that feature a new prop each day…dumbbells, chairs, medicine balls, bodyweight and a table.

I’ve checked out the first two days of 50 Shades of Glutes and love the dumbbell and medicine ball exercises included…and plan on stealing a few of them to use with my clients! I haven’t posted a workout for you lately but I highly recommend that you check these out!

While I haven’t read 50 Shades of Grey (and I’m not so sure if I want to)…I can certainly get on board with 50 Shades of Glutes. Y’all know how much I love all things squats, lunges and booty shaping! 🙂

What is your favorite way to work your glutes? 

Have you read 50 Shades of Grey? Do you plan on seeing the movie?

I am sitting down to write this post with teary eyes and a heavy heart. On New Year’s Eve we said goodbye to Zoey. It seems like only yesterday that I brought this fluffy nugget home. Many of you have been here with me since Zoey was a puppy. She was the sweetest little sister [...]

It’s hard to believe that it’s been almost a month since I ran the Every Woman’s Marathon! One of the fun things about this year’s race was getting to visit Scottsdale, Arizona. It was my first time in Arizona and while it was a quick trip, I tried to maximize my time there. Here’s a [...]

Every Woman’s Marathon Scottsdale Recap (marathon #4!!!)

I am on a three-hour flight home from Scottsdale so it seems like the perfect time to relive and recap yesterday’s Every Woman’s Marathon experience. I had a great day and I’m very proud of the race that I ran. It was a practice in “fun running” and that not every race effort has to [...]
