My trusty whiteboard!

Thank goodness Friday has finally arrived! I’ve been feeling really flat this week – probably a combination of my dadda heading home, the cold creeping in and this unpredictable weather! Lou has a storm-phobia, and while I’m we’re very lucky to be surrounded by people who look out for him, it doesn’t stop the anxiety whenever I see ‘possible thunderstorms’ on the radar – which seems to be every second day at the moment!

Let’s HIIT It!

March 9, 2014 By LazyGirlFitness Leave a Comment

If you’ve been following my travels on Facebook or Twitter recently, you’ve probably noticed that I’ve been loving Fitness First’s new look The Zone gym on King Street in the Sydney CBD. The high intensity 30 minute (or 15 minute for the seriously time-poor) classes are an excellent way to escape the computer and burn some serious calories, fast.

Tabata Living Room Workout

March 2, 2014 By LazyGirlFitness Leave a Comment

Most of the time, I really enjoy working out by myself. I don’t tend to have many issues with motivation – I’m pretty happy to just get in and get my workout done. I know that’s not necessarily the case for everyone though – overwhelmingly, my clients tell me that they see me because they never really push themselves when training alone.

Sprint Workout

February 23, 2014 By LazyGirlFitness 3 Comments

If you’ve been following Lazy Girl Fitness for a while, you’ll know that my mum is pretty awesome when it comes to fitness and life in general. So when she called me the other week and asked if I’d put together a sprint training session for her and the lovely ladies (and occasional ring-in male) she trains with, I was more than happy to oblige – the only condition was that she had to provide feedback and take some piccies for me. Easy!…

Lower Body & Core Workout with Plyo Box

February 11, 2014 By LazyGirlFitness Leave a Comment

Given that it’s Valentine’s Week (is that even a thing?) I thought it was as good a time as any to announce that I have found true love. Let me reassure you though; the object of my affections is not a man, nay, it’s not even human. In fact, the very thing that has my heart all aflutter doesn’t even have a heart of its own.

Let me introduce you to the plyometric box.

Kettlebell Workout 2

January 29, 2014 By LazyGirlFitness Leave a Comment

Kettlebells are one of my favourite ~~instruments of torture~~ pieces of equipment. They’re so versatile you can do almost anything with them, and therefore they’re an excellent choice if you’re thinking of investing in a few key pieces for your own home gym.

Things I Love About Exercise

January 17, 2014 By LazyGirlFitness Leave a Comment

When you’re 600 reps into a hellish 700-rep workout, dripping with sweat and your muscles screaming in pain, it can be difficult to remember exactly why it is that you exercise at all. Ever.

The 12 Days of Christmas Workout

December 13, 2013 By LazyGirlFitness Leave a Comment

Christmas is a most excellent time of year in the fitness industry. It gives personal trainers the world over a chance to theme their workouts and plan awesome sessions that involve chimney climbers, reindeer games and North pole lunges. It allows us to develop Christmas quizzes, punish you with burpees for incorrect answers and force to you hop around like Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. Ah yes, as far as I’m concerned it doesn’t get any better….

Tabata of Terror

December 1, 2013 By LazyGirlFitness 2 Comments

What a weekend! Between Christmas catch-ups, play dates with Lucy and Panda the gorgeous greyhounds, the beginning of the Advent Calendar Challenge and my first visit to UFC Gym Sydney, I am EXHAUSTED. Lucky for you (unlucky for you?) not too exhausted to put together another good old LGF workout for you to partake in….
