Happy Monday! Hope you all had a great weekend. I had an amazing week of workouts this past week. One of my fitness goals for 2018 was to squat 200# which I did this week!! It surprisingly didn’t feel that heavy...well relatively. On my last birthday I failed an attempt at 185#, so I’ve gained…

Oh my goodness, I can’t believe that I’m 25! It always seemed like such an old age to me, yet here I am, ready to embrace it. Maybe now I'll start saying you're only as old as you feel, and age is just a number. I had such an amazing 24th year and I know my…
