I love teaching boot-camp on my birthday and like to incorporate something challenging but fun at the same time. So for my 54th bday on Monday, I created 2 workouts highlighting my favorite exercise.

Workout Rule #3
Performance-based goals are deciding to run a race with a time goal, wanting to swim a mile, beat your time when you hike a specific trail, hit a PR in a dead-lift or do a pull up. When you set a performance-based goal you are taking away any decision about whether or not you want …
Fitness Friday – A Quickie

Here's a very short, full body, no-equipment workout that you can do anywhere. Any. Where. And when you're done you can lay your workout clothes on your patio chairs to …
