In March 2020, like most fitness professionals, I moved my in-person boot-camp classes online and taught via Zoom. There was a *steep* learning curve to be sure; lighting, camera angles, and formatting a class that can be done in a space the size of a yoga mat and of course figuring out the sound. Oh …

My 30-Day Running Streak
I'm 10 days into a 30-day running challenge. The purpose was to jump-start me back into my running after being sick for almost 6 weeks. Now let's be *very* clear. My "bar" on this is not very high. The rule of my challenge is to run at least 1 mile every day, no matter what. …
10 Things I Love About My Peloton
I've had my Peloton since August 11th. Well, now it's "the family's Peloton" - we all have accounts and when I come home from teaching boot-camp there's usually a Honsberger family member's tuchus parked on it. Since I posted about my love affair with my Peloton a lot of people have asked me about it. …
How to Move the Needle
I work very hard to provide interesting content that will appeal to my readers; information, tips, strategies and a perspective that comes from a real live person, who, like you, has to juggle a schedule to go for a run, or who shoves a (non-vegan) donut in her pie hole when stressed. I succeed. I …
Let’s Get Social!
To reclaim my personal social media accounts for pictures of my family, my cats, and stupid memes that make me laugh, I've found a new home for all things fitness, health, and wellness. It will ALL be under my fitness brand OutFIT Marin. So head on over to Instagram and Facebook and "like" or "follow" …
Trainer Tip – Build Muscle

Strength training, whether you lift weights, use resistance bands, or your own bodyweight, offers many benefits. Here are just a few: Boosts your …
How to Turn Your Walk into a Great Workout
I'm a runner. It's my primary form of fitness and it gives me that "je ne sais quoi" that I can't get from other activities. So imagine my annoyance when I crack my baby toe into my ottoman one morning in late December and my running is put on ice (along with my toe) for …
Fitness Friday – A Quickie
Here is my go-to strength training workout when I'm really, really, really short on time. Squats, Push Ups and a Plank. That's it. Do 3-5 sets of 10 each of the squats and pushups, then settle in for a 60 second plank. You can mix up the squats (with or without weights or a band) and …
Challenge Alert! Challenge Alert!
This new challenge idea came to me as I was running. I've shared how my brilliant plans hatch on a run and this was no exception! It's the March Minutes Challenge. I'll lay it out for you next week and we'll be ready to kick it up a notch and off on March 1st. Now go …
SMART-y Pants
I just launched my first ever 21-Day Kickstart Challenge. I have 13 people enrolled and the challenge is based around accountability, exercise (of course) and healthy eating. One of the things I have asked of the group is to set goals. For the challenge and daily goals. But they have to be SMART goals. S …
