I’m still taking long uphill walks in our neighborhood, but this time, I’ve added 30 pounds to my body. Wow! I can’t believe that 9 months ago, I was 30 pounds heavier! Take a peek: Okay, it’s not really a weight vest (I’m still waiting for Warrior Hardware to import some to Honolulu), but it [...]

Great Home Workout
Finally! I got a workout in… at home! The assignment: 20+ minutes of cardio warm up with deadlifts and swings 20- 15- 10- cleans/ push presses 1 minute of four-touch in between stretch! I convinced my oldest nephew to take a 1 1/2 mile walk/run with me. He went ahead on his scooter, and I [...]
Weekend Blues?
This past weekend was pretty hectic. I started off on the wrong foot by showing up extremely late to my training session on Friday. Why have a blackberry if you’re not gonna look at it? Okay, enough griping. The good news is that I was extremely focused for 20 minutes, and learned a killer exercise [...]
Super Sunday!
I thought today was going to be a great day before I even met it. You know what I mean? You’re on track, doing what you need to do, and you just have a good feeling? Kinda like walking into an exam prepared? I had an amazing Saturday, kicked off by a great walk around [...]
omg… 12kg!
This is how I feel! Okay. I’m beat. But not soooooooooo tired that I can’t write a two sentence lead-in to this video. Here are Liz and I at the Fit Pro Hawaii studio working our tails off. We started immediately with the 12kg kettlebells! I have been using the 8kg pretty regularly, so increasing by [...]
Amazing Saturday
Hey, you guys! I hit a wall, slid down, and picked myself back up. (No, I didn’t hit the wall that hard… I’m sure that’s coming later.) But you know what I noticed? Things seem to work better after I plateau. I’m not saying that all of a sudden, I’m this super woman competitive kettlebell [...]

Heart Rate in the 808
What a day. I actually started out on the right side of the bed, waking up early and meeting my power partner for a walk around Kapiolani Park in Waikiki. The sun shone brightly and I found parking right away. Even my son was agreeable. I decided to try out the new heart monitor that my trainer [...]
Pushing 22kg for 3 Miles
I’ve been sick all week, so I’ve been pretty sedentary. As a work-at-home mom, it’s all too easy to justify the need to stay indoors, especially when a deadline is encroaching. But what about all the other times of the year? Luckily for me, I have my 2-year-old and my sister’s 3-year-old to keep me company. [...]
