Gyms have officially opened up in Miami. Have they opened up in your area? I am still waiting a bit longer until I go back. I have a lot of equipment at my house that I can make do with and I just don’t feel comfortable just yet. I haven’t even gone back to teaching at F45, but hopefully soon.

2020 is a gonna be great they said! New Year, New me!
Well, it’s definitely a new everyone! If you would’ve told me that in March 2020 the whole world was going to be going through a pandemic and everyone was going to be locked up in their house, I probably would’ve thought you were crazy and then immediately had a Panic Attack. I probably would have imagined a million scenarios that we would be in and freaked out. But come to think of it, it hasn’t been all that bad.

After a month long of celebrations, today is finally my birthday. I was born 33 years ago and 33 is the year of Jesus, as I’ve been told all day today. So far my thirties have been good to me and I may have learned a thing or two while I’ve been here.

Eating your pre- workout meal (before) and post-workout (after) is more than ok. It is necessary! Only under certain circumstances would it be ok to ditch the pre-workout but that's mainly a medical reason. This is actually a rookie mistake that many of us tend to do. We have the mentality that less is more when it comes to losing weight.. So the less we eat, the skinnier we will get. Sorry to break it to you chica, but that is not the case!

I know that you may be really enjoying your workouts, you’re used to the schedule, and you’ve already got a routine going. Well that’s just the problem; it's routine! Once your body has adjusted to these motor pattern movements,you're not going to see the results you want. Another problem you may be having is that mentally, you’ve checked out. You’re just going through the movements and not really making any muscle/mind connections. That is why we have to Marie Kondo your workout and I’m here to help you with that!

I get asked this question a lot, by friends, family, clients , etc. Basically everyone is intrigued by this question. I think it's partially because everyone is looking for an easy fix to losing weight and getting healthy. I mean if not there wouldn’t be an entire industry of supplements and diet pills promising to get you thin quick, Or maybe they just want to maximize their time at the gym since most don’t really like it but they go because they figure it's the only way they will lose weight.

Whenever someone embarks on a fitness journey, its is human nature to want to go all in. Meaning you want to buy every fruit and vegetable in the grocery store, new gym clothes and accessories and most importantly supplements. My clients are always asking me what is the best supplement that they can get for the best results. The fitness industry has led us all to believe that without these supplements we will never get the results that we want.

Skincare is extremely important to me. I've always been pretty good about taking care of my skin but now that I'm 30, I feel like its a whole different ball game. Especially since I work out, bacteria and impurities can get into my skin from the gym. This means I have to be cautious of not letting my pores clog and having breakouts.

Or your boss really hates you and has you working after hours. Or maybe you just don't like the vibe at the gym and all the sweaty germs just grosses you out. I completely understand

Now that you've embarked on this journey, you want help and guidance in doing so, which I think is extremely important especially if you are new to the scene. Choosing a trainer can be difficult since their are so many out there and its unregulated. Often times people make a vast decision on a trainer and end up getting hurt, damaging their metabolism or getting ripped off.

So the good times keep rolling.............until Sunday Morning. Then the room will be spinning, your head will be pounding and the thought of water will make you gag. I guess it's the price we pay for having too much of anything. Alcohol is also a depressant so you feel lethargic and lack energy. However, I've got the cure so you can get rid of that awful hangover.
