Happy Monday! We had a nice weekend lifting with our friends at their gym and getting some delicious sushi after! We put in an application for an apartment in their building, so hopefully that will be our gym soon!! It's one of the best powerlifting gyms in NYC so we are very excited. It's so…
NYC 2 Month Update
I can’t believe I’ve already been living in NYC for two months, time flies when you’re in the city that never sleeps!! I must admit, I wasn't sure how much I'd like city life, but I’ve adjusted quicker than I thought. However, ask me again in the winter and I might say otherwise... Fair warning: this post…
Strolling Through Central Park: Part 1
Central Park is such an iconic part of NYC. It's so much bigger than people think so I figured I would make my strolls through Central Park into multiple posts. There's so much to do and see there. We stayed along the east side on our stroll this day. A few weekends ago Jon and…

Jon’s Birthday in NYC!
Jon’s birthday was on a Monday (June 25th), so we decided to celebrate the weekend before. In the morning we met our friends and lifted with them. I did some deadlifts while Jon benched with his bros. We went to Insomnia Cookies afterwards because I was starting to get hangry! We got the peanut butter…
Weekly Workouts 6/25 – 7/1
This week was my last ever lift at Lifetime Fitness and I was quite sad, it’s been my favorite gym that I’ve belonged to. Jon and I both benched and had decent workouts. We were still recovering from the stomach bug and missed workouts so weren’t on our “A game”. Now that I’m healthy and…

Each month I’ll be answering the following questions: What I’m eating: Based on our freezer we only eat naan bread pizza, post workout smoothies, and ice cream. But seriously, Jon and I eat this naan…
