Read moreSpurred by a coworker at a Christmas party, Sandy joined women’s fitness boot camp with a less than eager attitude. “It was just the worst thing I’d ever done!” she says referring to how she felt after her first session. “I mean, I’d worked out before, but nothing nearly as intense. Amy didn’t go easy…
Read moreAs my Boot Campers will attest, I’m a huge fan of the 5:30am workout. It gets the metabolism pumping, the endorphins activated and builds strength while you’re still sleepy But, did you know that bootcamp before breakfast burns more fat?
Read moreSide plank is one of my favorite core exercises! It engages everything in your abdominal structure, but unlike many abs exercises, it is really quite difficult to engage, and potentially strain your lower back. You should NEVER feel a lot of pressure in your lower back when you are performing any abdominal exercise.
Read moreRunners (at least the ones I know) are notorious for neglecting their strength training workouts. It’s like stretching (which many people also tend to leave out): you really don’t realize how important it is until you develop a problem, breakdown in desperation, and try it. Then you wonder how you lived all this time without…
Read moreI’ve been running in the Xterra trail runs at Kualoa Ranch for a few years now, but this year I decided to step it up and actually go for the full 21K course. One of the things I really like about this event, other than it’s drop dead gorgeous scenery, of course, is that there…
Read moreIt is hot! And I have no AC.. And my ceiling fan had died. Which means I am definitely not turning on the oven, and even the stove top can be unpleasant. Luckily for me, it’s zucchini season, and I’ve been mixing up a ton of zucchini “pastas,” or raw salads, if you’d rather…
Read moreI’m halfway through my training program for the Hapalua Half Marathon on March 10. So far everything is going well, if not exactly according to the schedule. Before I started this structured plan, I hadn’t been running regularly for quite some time. I find that training for an event helps keep me more consistent when…
Read moreThe Big Game is on this weekend and whether you are in it for the football, the commercials, or the halftime show, I know food will also play a large role in you Super Bowl experience. The traditional tailgate fare of nachos, burgers, pizza, chips, and deep-fried delicacies is not exactly health food. I’m not…
Read moreI was approached by pv.body a few weeks go to review their athletic wear subscription service. The company concept is pretty neat. You take a quiz with questions about the fit, colors, and styles you prefer in tops and bottoms, as well as the types of workouts you usually do. Then, using your style profile,…
Read moreI am a big fan of winter squash, even more so now that some island-grown varieties are becoming available, including one of my favorites: butternut squash As with many things in Hawaii, butternut squash can get to be an expensive buy at the grocery store, especially considering that most squash weigh several pounds. So, whenever…
Read moreHappy New Year! A new year means a whole new training schedule! I’ve been off distance running for some time now, but I have several half marathons on the schedule for 2013 that I need to get prepared for. The first race is the Honolulu Hapalua, brought to you by the same great team as…
Read moreLast week the New York City Board of Health overwhelmingly voted to disallow the sale of sugar-sweetened beverages in containers larger than 16 ounces in restaurants, fast-food establishments, delis, movie theaters, sports stadiums, and food carts. Whether or not this new policy will make a dent in the city’s obesity stats remains to be seen,…
Read moreSaturday morning I was standing on the North Shore with 700 other swim cap clad racers, wondering whether or not I was going to be the last person to finish the 1 mile open ocean swim from Sunset Beach to Pipeline. I’d be a disgrace to my profession! I trained for this race on the…
Read moreYour exercise routine is probably burning far fewer calories than you think. I’ve been doing some experimenting with my heart rate monitor recently and here are the somewhat disappointing numbers: 1 hour of hot yoga: 170 calories 25 minutes of trail running (during which I felt like I might die at any moment): 237…
Read moreLast weekend I spent my Saturday morning serving up snacks and running keiki through an obstacle course at the grand opening of the Manoa Valley Public Library. I made a delicious, nut-free version of these banana-coconut cookies; I can vouch for their tastiness because I had no leftovers at the end of the day and…
