Celebrate Good Times

33 days ago by FCITC

Teaching bridal boot camp the past few weeks has been a bit of a flash back. Its fun to hear about the girl’s wedding plans. People often ask if I lost weight before my wedding. The answer is no. Could I have lost a few pounds probably, but the advantage of living a healthy lifestyle is that you don ...

The Extinction of Cross Trainers

35 days ago by FCITC

As a child if I wasn’t dancing, running or playing some kind of sport you’d find me curled up with a book. One of my favorite series was the “ Shoes“ series by Noel Streatfeild. The series taught me that in order to excel at an activity you need the proper footwear.;) Introducing my first pair of cr ...

Downward Facing Dog

48 days ago by FCITC

Last night I was a text book case of how to be prepared for a morning workout. I laid out my bike clothes, pumped up my tires, set the timer on the coffee maker for 5:00 am. and went to bed early. Yet, despite all my tactics, I missed my bike ride. Apparently, setting my alarm clock for the correct ...

Finding my Mojo

49 days ago by FCITC

According to Wikipedia “Motivation is the activation or energization of goal-oriented behavior.” It seems I’m lacking a little in the activation and energization this weekend (is energization a word?). Luckily, I have a few fail proof tricks that prevent me from missing my workouts. Fail proof ways ...

Giving You a Spot

60 days ago by FCITC

Would you like to avoid a stinky pile… of clothes? At least two loads per week are dedicated to stink busting. I don’t know about you, but I’m super busy this fall and would like to reduce my household chores. Post workout I head straight to the kitchen for a snack shower. Here’s how you can minimiz ...

Weekend Update II

62 days ago by FCITC

I hope your Labor Day is going better than mine! This morning I had planned a long run of 17 miles. When I went to bed last night I had a little headache, but nothing big. I woke up and it was still there. I decided to ignore it and soldier on. After I completed my pre-run breakfast it was time to p ...

75 days ago by FCITC

Video youtube video

Guess who owns a flip camera??? Thought I’d share some awesome core moves that only require a little space and two kitchen towels. Oh and keep in mind that I don’t have any video editing skills at this point. What is this strong plank, I speak of so frequently? Hands press firmly into the floor as i ...

Cake ???

77 days ago by FCITC

I am a believer in eating cake. Trust me that’s not the question. I work in a gym. I’ve worked in various different gyms for the last 10 years. I’ll never forget my disappointment when at my first ever staff meeting…gasp….they served pizza and cake. When I first entered this industry, I was enthusia ...
