Performa Nutrition – Waterloo
May 29, 2014 by Leave a Comment
As a personal trainer, scoring an invite to the launch of a new gym/wholefoods store/insert-healthy-pursuit-here is probably a bit like a normal person getting invited to the opening of a new cocktail bar. Pretty darn exciting.
Swiftly Tech – Your Winter Workout Staple
May 27, 2014 by 2 Comments
Putting the Swiftly through its paces in a HIIT session last weekend
I don’t deal well with winter. Like, I REALLY don’t deal well with winter. So much so in fact, that some would suggest that becoming an outdoor personal trainer wasn’t the smartest career move I’ve ever made. [Sidenote: probably not the stupidest either.] [Read more…]

Baking is not my forte – let’s just get that out in the open. The good news is, that means these muffins are really REALLY easy.

Fact: noone likes Monday mornings.
Unfortunately no matter what we do, they keep rolling around every seven days, just like clockwork.
Lovely Legs Workouts
May 12, 2014 by Leave a Comment
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.
Lovely Legs Workout 1 – no equipment; medium-high intensity (save this pic onto your phone for easy access)
Nike She Runs – 2014 (and Happy Birthday LGF!)
May 5, 2014 by Leave a Comment
One year ago today I began this blog with a wrap up of Nike She Runs 2013. In some ways I feel like I’ve been talking to you guys for waaay longer than that, and yet in many other ways I feel like it was only yesterday that I was sitting at Toko Sushi Train in Paddington with my friend (and now housemate) Kate, discussing how I was going to put together my first post. In celebration of the anniversary of that first Nike She Runs post I thought I’d do…. another Nike She Runs post! Look, I know I could have been a little more imaginative, but the dates just work. So here we go again Team…
The Nike She Runs Wall of Fame – there I am!
Myth of The Perfect Life
May 1, 2014 by 1 Comment
I’ve been thinking a lot about The Perfect Life lately. Or, more specifically, the fact that the whole concept is a myth. Despite knowing this in theory, a quick flick through my social media pages and I’d be forgiven for thinking that not only does The Perfect Life exist, but that everyone is enjoying said Life except me.
Because really, noone can be THIS happy, all of the time.
Beauty and danger abound in equal parts on social media by allowing us to share – and not share – whatever parts of our lives that we choose. I have worked hard to make Lazy Girl Fitness real, because I am real, and you are real. Inspirational and aspirational? I hope so. But the absolute non-negotiable? Achievable. Obviously I want you guys to see me at my best and happiest, but I also think it’s important that you see that my life is not like that all the time. Does it make me less follow-able to be less than perfect? I hope not. [Read more…]

The novelty of Monday is over, and now – after a string of short weeks – we finally have to face the reality of five days at work… in a row! Yuck. Lucky for you, I thought I’d make things a little easier with a fun-filled workout, guaranteed to get the endorphins flowing. You find squat jumps fun, right?
A pinch of exercise + a dash of fun = Las Vegas, LGF style!
