LGF 28-Day Abs Challenge – Starts Today

August 12, 2013 By LazyGirlFitness 5 Comments

CHECK OUT THE NEW AND IMPROVED LGF 28-DAY ABS CHALLENGE HERE
———————————————

I don’t think I’d be going out on a limb here to say that we all want better abs and a stronger core. Trouble is, by the time most of us get to the end of a workout, there’s no time for anything more than a few token sit ups (if that). I’m one of the worst offenders out there when it comes to skipping ab-work, so I thought I’d throw down the gauntlet to myself – and anyone else who wants to join me – and commit to a 28-day program designed to improve core strength and yes, achieve better stomach definition.

I know I know, it’s a little vain. And perhaps, given the pain my super-tight hip flexors give me, you could also call it a little stupid. In fact, that’s pretty much what my physio did when I told him, although his exact words were a little kinder – ‘have I taught you nothing?’ Sorry Nick.

Anyway, onto the challenge itself:

LG Motivation – Bev Robinson (yup, my mum!)

August 6, 2013 By LazyGirlFitness 6 Comments


Most of us have taken a break from exercise at some point in our life. And no matter the reason (injury, new job, laziness, having children or any other shift in priorities) there’s one thing that can be guaranteed – it’s REALLY difficult to get back into it.

So when that ‘break from exercise’ turns into decades and becomes a way of life, how do you find the motivation to turn things around? Well, today I’m talking to a very special lady who did just that. She also happens to be the world’s best mum, and she’s mine, so hands off.

One Bench, Five Ways

August 4, 2013 By LazyGirlFitness Leave a Comment

What a glorious weekend in Sydney it has been. The perfect weather for dog walking, a 12km City2Surf training run, a visit to my fave cafe in Surry Hills, kicking a footy in the park, visiting friends, napping, blogging, exploring Tamarama, more dog walking and a little bit of gelato from Gelato Messina thrown in there for good measure (because being perfect all of the time is no fun at all).

Wholefoods House Woollahra

July 30, 2013 By LazyGirlFitness 2 Comments

As you are no doubt aware by now, I’m not really into ‘skinny’ foods. I used to be – in high school and through my early 20’s I was all about light cheese, light coconut milk, fat-free yoghurt – and God help you if you put full cream milk in my coffee. Ironically, this was probably my most unhealthy and heaviest period (weight-wise) of my life.

Simple 15-Minute Workout

July 29, 2013 By LazyGirlFitness 2 Comments

I might be a personal trainer, but that doesn’t mean I’m immune to the occasional bout of exercise-itis. Sadly, I know too much to be able to convince myself that skipping a workout entirely is a good idea, but I do believe in tweaking your workout to suit your mood/body/schedule when necessary. Sometimes this might mean switching Pump for yoga or your run for something lower impact, like swimming or cycling. And at other times it’s as simple as committing to a shorter workout rather than ditching training altogether.

My 10 Favourite Exercise Excuses

July 25, 2013 By LazyGirlFitness 5 Comments

Excuses for not exercising are the best. They’re fun, imaginative and – much like the old ‘dog ate my homework’ trick – they’re also completely transparent. Here are 10 of my favourites, as well as some rebuttal for you to use next time you find yourself in an internal argument about whether or not you’re going to the gym.
