Busy day at the clinic today, but stayed on track. It’s a beautiful day in Washington so just finished a nice long walk with my husband and my dog.
-
Very Nice, Mandy! I’ll be skiing again hopefully this weekend, then might pack up the winter stuff and start pulling out the hiking gear and kayak to start exploring. I need to find some more walking places – my neighborhoods surrounding me are getting dull. Maybe if I had a doggo to walk….
-
I can’t wait for warm weather. I’m gonna do more paddle boarding this year for sure. I LOVE to hike but the rattlesnakes are so bad in central Washington where I live that I won’t hike here. 🙁 If I don’t have my husband or my dog to walk I just throw on some headphones and turn on a podcast to listen to.

Holy exhaustion today. My three kids had the day off school so in between working a full day while trying to entertain them, exercising, grocery shopping and clearing out the house getting ready for our renovation this weekend I am totally spent. Logged over 16,000 steps though and kept macros fairly in check. G’night!

I am tired just reading about your day! Great job. Be sure to find some rest time to recover.

What’s up Collective fam!! Long time no talk! Today was my first day back in the gym in three weeks. The first trimester of pregnancy has been rough (the prize at the end is very much worth it). I was noticing my mental well being slightly declining and knew I had to do something. Prepared last night and didn’t hit snooze this morning! Tha…Read More

Keep it up. One of the bigger goals is to learn to listen and respond to our body, never more important for you than now. Stay healthy!

GREAT Collective call today — Loved it! Thank you Brad and Cass! SO GOOD.
Had a great coaching call with Brad and adjusted my macros for a couple weeks “blitz” (I think that is what you called it, Brad…) to hopefully overcome a bit of a plateau / stall. Actually loved the new macros today and hit them fairly easily. Not hungry and had great…Read More2 Comments -

Had icecream that put me over! Feeling good about protein. I also paired the icecream with protein for less of a sugar crash

Had another really good day. My youngest son had another interview in Colorado. We are all hoping and praying he gets a job here soon and can join us from NY. We all love it here and want the family together. Will still have a kiddo and DIL in Seattle, but that is a quick flight and a beautiful place to visit. I’ve been getting my workouts in at…Read More

Isn’t it such a great feeling when your gym becomes a place you look forward to instead of where you dread to go?! I am so happy that you have your kiddos there. 💜 Keep crushing your goals. 💪🏼👏🏼

YES, Mandy! Finally starting to feel like a gym family of sorts. I had that back “home” in NY and missed it terribly. I look forward to going and seeing my gym friends to say hello.

I’ve been completely disconnected lately with everything that fills my cup up and feeling like I’m in survival mode. Last week hit the gym 2 days, hadn’t gone in the 2 weeks prior to that. Went to the gym tonight and listened to Brad and Craig’s pod cast from last week. Really hit home. I’ve been feeling like I’m in survival mode because I’m…Read More

How are you feeling today? Every new day is a beautiful opportunity to reset and begin again.

Thanks for asking. Still struggling with some things. I’m working really hard on doing things that are important to me and things I know make me feel good. Had a great workout today, ate good. Don’t get my step count in but that’s ok. I’ve hit it the last 5 days and exceeded it my a couple thousand each day.

That’s awesome!! If you can win most areas of most days that is going to show long term, in how you feel mostly. Great job getting after it today.

I went way over my macros today but it doesn’t reflect on this chart for some reason. I guess I only went over like 200-300 calories but MFP shows otherwise. Anyway – I think whenever I start to make a little bit of progress I start self-sabotaging. I’d love for @bradjensen to do a weekly call on something around this. It’s definitely something I…Read More

Keep at it! I know it’s hard to get the mind out of the gutter. I few days ago when I didn’t post I ate like 10 handfuls of peanuts and chocolate covered raisins I didn’t even track that day cause I was so upset with myself lol 🫠 it’s easy to give up. But tomorrow is a new day! And your progress won’t just back! If anything the scale just move…Read More

Here’s to beginning again. It’s one of the greatest gifts and powers we have, the ability to change directions at any point in the journey. And when you change direction, the eventual destination will also change. Trying to get point d in the desired direction tonight.

Great day with my littles, and time with my big boys. Loved it so much. Did well with my macros and just feel so blessed. Family is everything. I hope everyone had a great weekend and that y’all set yourself up for success this coming week. I am grateful to be here with all of you.

I’m so happy you had such a wonderful weeekend Dana. Family is everything, especially when it comes to your kids. My son is coming home in less than 2 weeks and I can’t wait. I haven’t seen him in almost a year. Good job on staying on track with your food. You’re crushing it my friend. 💜💜

I so agree, Ingrid. I am incredibly blessed with my boys, DIL’s and the grand babies. I know there will be more grands in the future too — just amazing. I never expected how incredibly joyful grandchildren are (these were a bit of a surprise to everyone so caught us all — haha). Having grandchildren is like the love you feel for your own child…Read More

Hello! I’m new here and had a question. I would say I’m an intermediate lifter since I started strength training in 2015. But obviously I’m on here because I’m looking to get better and stronger. I was looking over the weight training programs and was surprised to see that there is only one leg day a week in the programs. I guess my questio…Read More

Hey Becca! There is legs twice on each four-day split. And on the beginner three day full body split there was legs mixed in every day. Private message me if you’re not seeing all the days. There is definitely more than one leg day.

Really good day. I didn’t set my alarm and slept 8 1/2 hours!!! Unreal for me and I felt great ALL day. So much energy.

It was funny because WE were the annoying little posse wandering from machine to machine in force and chatting away. Just like the…Read More

Not feeling myself today. Got out for a 30 minute walk but that was about it. I didn’t eat till about 1pm with everything going on. So that helped me probably not go way over on Calories. Still met my protein goals but not my fiber today lol

Had a good day, but I am BEAT! Little sleep last night with late-arriving flight, and birthday dinner and little party for my grand-daughter. I managed to hit my macros though, even with the big dinner I prepared. That felt GOOD. Wishing everyone an awesome weekend!

Didn’t hit either, short waking hours today! I wanted icecream for the past 3 days and was planning to get it. We got busy and I was craving it so much. My fiancé let me know there were better options at home and reminded me about how I would feel after. Didn’t end up getting the icecream and had some frozen tru fru at home!

Tru fru are soooo yummy and that’s so nice of your fiancé to be a support to you. 🙌🏼

Didn’t hit fat or carbs but I prioritized protein. The grass in our yard is all done and we are beat. I lifted shoulders before I laid sod so I probably won’t be able to lift my arms tomorrow. 😂😂😂

Update on my injury: Worked legs pretty good yesterday. I did not do squats( one of my favorite lifts) but I did do the leg Press squat machine. Got up to around 7 plates on each side. My groin injury is feeling good at the moment. Hopefully I’ll get to get back to my squats and powerlifting soon. I’ve got a meet at the end of June that I’m hoping to hit

4/4! On my cycle and so bloated and craving so much food. Learning to say no to most and try to eat healthier bc I know it makes me feel better

Way to stay disciplined. I have chocolate and candy at the clinic in my face all day and some days I want to eat it so bad, but I have done so good and stayed away from eat because I know I’ll eat way over my macros 😂😂

Slightly off my game today but dinner was AMAZING!!! I love me a good steak. I’m definitely pre planning for tomorrow because my husband and I are going to finish laying sod so our yard will finally be done!!! I can’t wait! When I get in the groove of working in the yard, I don’t eat so I know I need to make sure I’m prepared.

Went out to dinner with friends last night. it was a super late dinner which I know my body does not enjoy so I ate beforehand and then ordered some edamame to split among the group. Made it within my macros and my digestion was way better not eating a heavy dinner late at night.

Really great day. I had lots of energy, super workout, hit my steps. I even worked in with a couple guys at the gym and matched THEIR weights with some significant increases for me!

Went to a brewery for my parents anniversary tonight and they had a food truck with smash burgers. I didn’t eat and I don’t drink so it was easy to hit my goals. I came home and had dinner ready to be warmed up. Thankful for my husbands support because he waited to eat with me when we got home. Today was a great day! 🙌🏼
