Happy New Year’s Eve! Mine is going to be pretty wild and crazy with an early baby bedtime, a 7p social at my parent’s condo development and plans to be in bed reading by 10. I’m hoping to snooze through the clock striking midnight.

Related, I’m reading Kristin Hannah’s “The Great Alone” and I can’t put it down so I’m excited about my NYE reading plans. 😉

When I was booking my holiday travel, I knew I wanted to be in Florida with my family for New Year’s Eve and Day so that I could end the year and start a new one with them. Huge bonus that my nieces are here too and my whole immediate family is together. <3

I didn’t think it was really necessary this year to write a post recapping 2018. I think everyone is clear on the highs and lows of this year and I’m ready to focus on a fresh, new 2019!

Best Workouts of 2018

What I did think would be useful to you guys as we launch into this new year is taking a look back at the best workouts of 2018. I picked these top workouts based on the number of you who tried them and either commented on the post or tagged me on Instagram. I’ve also put together a playlist with 70 songs and over 4 hours of of the best workout music from 2018.

My hope is that this post gives you a dose of inspiration and motivation to make it a sweaty and endorphin-filled new year!

I got a few sets of dumbbells and a kettlebell for Christmas so be on the lookout for more simple, minimal-equipment home workouts from me in 2019! I know y’all love those.

HAPPY NEW YEAR FRIENDS! To wrap it up, I’d love to hear the fitness/workout accomplishment you’re most proud of from 2018 and a goal you have for 2019!

Happy Memorial Day Weekend. It’s a very rainy one here in Charlotte and while I am a little bummed not to be spending the weekend in Florida with the fam or by the pool at our swim club (just opened for the season!), I’m also welcoming a slower pace and time at home. It’s been [...]
