Which Butt Do I Want?

I am a very goal oriented gal, and if I am going to compete in ANYTHING, I need to envision what the finish line will look like. So, being that I have been trying to lose the butt on top of my butt (aka the plumbers crack that goes halfway up my back) for some [...]

BOOTCAMP: THE END
WARRIORS! Come out and play-ay!

YES, that is me doing a pull up – the results of 12 grueling weeks working out with the best personal trainer I know. I met Ray 10 years ago as I was embarking on shooting a wedding special. Getting married seemed so confusing the only way my husband and I knew how to navigate [...]

Bootcamp Week 9
How I lost 3 pounds in 6 days.

I must admit, last week I was scared. Very scared. Scared of the new rules. But as Dr. Bob tells me weekly in his spin class…You have to get out of your comfort zone to see real change. Lisa and Ray tightened the reigns….Mamas were going hardcore and being that I’m team captain, I had [...]

BOOTCAMP WEEK 4
Rugburn, Spanx and Jiggly Bits

This week was brutal. Whenever we work out inside, I think, Oh this will be so much easier. Scratch that. Ray was in rare form and tougher than usual. We did countless rounds of burpees, perhaps my least favorite exercise on the planet. Am I praising Jesus or doing burpees? BOTH!!!

TMI: Brooke Burke
Doesn’t Own Fat Jeans.
