First #KnowYourNumbers seminar of 2019! This is the 8th or 9th time I’ve presented this, and its my favorite seminar to do. # State Street offers biometric screenings to all employees twice a year. These screenings provide employees with their numbers for blood pressure, BMI, cholesterol, and blood glucose. But the problem is the numbers are never explained to them. That’s why we developed this seminar, to give some insight into what those numbers mean and how to improve them! # I turned this presentation into a blog series last year, you can find it via the link in my bio, clicking on the “Website” link! # These numbers tell an important story of overall health and wellness, but mean nothing if you don’t understand them. Educate yourself, ask your doctor questions, and always know your numbers!! #corporatefitness #corporatewellness #knowyournumbers #bloodpressure #cholesterol #bloodglucose #bodycomposition #cmghealthfitness #exercisephysiologist #bostonfitness #bostonwellness #fitnessblogger

It’s been a minute since I did a full meal prep but I’m so happy to be back on track! On the menu this week: -Quinoa bowl with chicken sausage, sweet potato, and spinach (dinner Mon-Tues at work) -Egg frittata with spinach and red pepper (being made tomorrow for Wed-Fri breakfast at work) -Prepped shredded chicken for salads which I eat for lunch daily -Also made a batch of my protein cookies (recipe in my “nutrition” highlight) # Since I can’t really workout yet, I’m making sure my nutrition is on point! Feels good to be ready for the week 💪🏼 #mealprep #mealprepmonday #preplife #tupplife #healthyliving #cmghealthfitness #nutrition

Monday morning message: the grass is green where you water it 👊🏼💪🏼

Prepping my body for a comeback 💪🏼💪🏼 # Unfortunately I still have some restrictions (will talk about these on my story later) and won’t be able to really do much more than this for another 2-3 weeks. But I’d rather heal fully than risk anything. I put together a prep plan that I started this past week to focus on easing muscle tightness, building my endurance, and starting to build my muscles back up. Here’s what I’m doing: -foam rolling -30 min walk on the treadmill -active stretching: *hamstrings *quads *calf raises *lateral toe taps *glute kickbacks *seated leg extensions *step-ups *band shoulder dislocations (no video) *band pull-aparts (no video) # It honestly just feels good to MOVE again. My knees were getting so sore, and I couldn’t kneel because my quads were so tight. After 3 days of this, I’m feeling so much better AND I can kneel without feeling like I’m about to blow my knee out. # I have a looooong journey to get back to where I was, but I’m ready 💪🏼 soon I’ll be squatting and deadlifting again and I can’t wait! #roadtorecovery #progressnotperfection #surgeryrecovery #cmghealthfitness #comebackkid

💤😴 Today is WORLD SLEEP DAY 😴💤 # 😴Sleep is an extremely important aspect of health, and World Sleep Day recognizes and helps raise awareness of sleep disorders. # 😴Sleep deprivation is something that millions of Americans suffer from. Not only does it have consequences on your daily life, but sleep deprivation can seriously affect your fitness goals. While it may seem “normal” to feel tired, it’s not. Sleep deprivation often goes undiagnosed, because many people just think they’re tired. Waking up not feeling refreshed or rested, trouble falling and staying asleep, and being sleepy during the day are all signs of sleep deprivation. # 😴It can lead to all sorts of health issues, including occupational injury, automobile injury, memory/cognitive impairment, high blood pressure, heart disease, obesity, depression, stroke, and stunted growth in children. It also has a major affect on weight and fat loss. A study by the University of Chicago found that: 💤 Dieters who got adequate sleep lost more fat than those who didn’t 💤 When sleep was cut, they produced higher levels of ghrelin, a hormone that increases hunger and reduces energy expenditure # 😴This study shows that sleep is not only important for fat loss, but also for hormone regulation. When you produce high levels of ghrelin, you’ll feel hungry more throughout the day. If you’re sleep deprived, you might be more likely to reach for processed, sugary snacks. # 😴Is sacrificing your health worth staying up late to watch another episode on Netflix? If you have fat loss goals, you should have sleep goals as well. If you think you might suffer from sleep deprivation, talk with your doctor about treatment strategies. For more info, check out my blog on sleep deprivation and fat loss (link in bio). Since today is World Sleep Day, make sure you get your full 8 hours tonight! 💤😴

🍑 #ForTheBooty Humpday Exercise of the Day: Feet-Elevated Frog Pump🍑 # 🍑MISS ME?! #ForTheBooty is back! I actually filmed a bunch of exercises to share throughout my recovery, but decided to just focus on healing instead. And yes I know it’s now Thursday but IG was down yesterday and this wouldn’t post. So happy day after hump day! Today’s exercise is one of my faves: feet-elevated frog pump. Check it out: # 🍑Grab a box or bench, starting at about 12” and working up from there 🍑Lay on your back with your knees bent and open, feet together and resting on the box, back flat on the ground 🍑Perform the pump as usual-Push the hips up, keeping the ribs down, squeezing the glutes at the top. 🍑Start with 15 unweighted, then try adding a band around the knees, or a dumbbell resting on your hips! Also try increasing the height of your box...the higher the harder! # 🍑Raising the feet for this exercise increases range of motion, which thus increases glute activation. # 🍑Apologies again for being a day late!! Happy to be back to my regular posting....and I think your booty will be happy too 😉🐪
