The end is nigh! Just five more ‘work’ days and you will be able to say that you completed the LGF 28-Day Upper Body Challenge. Or as I like to call it, Hell.

Partner Workout – Bodyweight & Boxing
During the week, finding the time to work out can be tough. I’m generally up before 6am, but between walking Lou, full-time work, PT sessions, netball and attempting to have a social life, from Monday to Friday my workouts tend to be the hard and fast ones I can fit in my lunch break. By the time Saturday rolls around I am super excited to be able to plan a workout for myself that’s longer than 30 minutes, plus I get to train near the beach and – the most exciting part of all – I get to work out with a partner!…

So… You Hate Weight Training?
So I’ve got this friend – let’s call her ‘Spence’ – and she hates weight training. She’s into everything else – cardio, boxing, yoga, running, Pilates and so on – but as soon as I mention weights, she screws her face up at me.
I feel like Spence is not alone with her scrunchy-faced reaction to weights.

LGF Upper Body Challenge – Week 1
Woohoo, it’s finally arrived – HAPPY FIRST DAY OF THE LGF 28-DAY UPPER BODY CHALLENGE TEAM!
Ever since I designed the first LGF Challenge back in August last year, I’ve had people messaging me asking when I would be putting together an upper body challenge. To be honest with you, I’ve been avoiding it a little bit because finding quality upper body exercises that you can do without equipment is hard, and I didn’t want this to be just another push up challenge.
But I’ve finally done it.
And now, in just four short weeks you will be feeling like a fitter, stronger, more defined version of yourself… how exciting is that?
The first seven days of the Challenge goes a little something like this:

The Benefits of Social Fitness
Some of the most enjoyable experiences of my life have involved social fitness. From organised events like the City 2 Surf or Tough Bloke Challenge through to lunchtime runs with workmates or casual outdoor sweat sessions and beach walks, I don’t think there’s anything better than getting sweaty with friends (and strangers for that matter). That’s why I’ve never understood why some people choose only to socialise when there’s alcohol involved….
My Cosmo Shoot Is Out!
If you’d asked me a year ago to compile a list of my most hidden, depths-of-my-soul dreams, I don’t think I would have even been game enough to write ‘magazine feature and photo shoot’. But somehow, somewhere, someone is shining down on me, because recently I had the incredible good fortune to be part of exactly that with the fabulous team from Cosmopolitan magazine….
Simple Abs Workout
Reverse Pyramid Bodyweight Workout
Lovely Legs Workouts
If you ask me, lovely legs are strong legs. You know, legs that can carry stuff. And kick stuff. And squat stuff. And leap tall buildings in a single bound. Or at least carry you up the stairs in said tall building without needing to call an ambulance.
Lovely strong legs don’t just happen though. You gotta work for them ladies! And here are a couple of workouts that will help get you there.
