So a week has passed since the 2014 City2Surf and I’m finally getting around to putting together my wrap-up. Please excuse me if it’s a little disjointed, I am full of Sudafed and Armaforce in a bid to rid myself of this annoying flu that seems to have made a home in my body……
Six Push Up Variations
A couple of weeks ago I gave you a push up tutorial, going through the basics of the standing, knee and toe push ups. Since then I’m sure you have been practicing nightly (right? RIGHT?) and will soon be ready to take on some more complex versions.
This week I’ve got six particularly fun push up variations for you to try. All will challenge you, some may try to break you. Don’t let them – you got this….
Things I Am Thankful For
Us humans are funny creatures. So many of us seem programmed to look on the negative side of things… to see the grey cloud instead of the silver lining, the rain rather than the rainbow. I know I’ve been guilty of this on many an occasion (lord knows how many times my Dad has told me to stop seeing the glass as half empty!) but something has changed within me recently, and I am really finding myself feeling joyful at the most unexpected of moments. So much so that I’ve decided to put together a list of the things I am grateful for….

Apologies for the delay in this post but if, like me, you’re finding it difficult to lift your arms to the keyboard and you feel like you’d rather stab yourself in the eye than do another push up then congratulations, the Challenge was a success!…

My Five Fave Foodie Blogs
I like food. I like to eat it. I like to think about eating it. I like to talk about eating it. I like to read about it. I like to look at photos of it. I like to take photos of it.
I have an addiction to food, and as far as addictions go I guess it’s not a bad one – though the drool on my keyboard does make it difficult to type at times…
You know who I blame? Ladies, I’m looking at you:

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:
