on january first, i was wiped after my work bender, but i figured it might be a good idea to eek out a one mile warm up, four sets of: 25 weighted sit ups on medicine ball, 10 pikes using towels, 1 minute plank, 20 russian twists, 15 ball pass overs. you know, to start the new year on the right foot because something is better than nothing. and two days later, it still hurts to laugh and cough or do anything remotely involving my abs. touche, body. touche.

Everything is back to normal post hurricane Sandy :) Thank you to all that sent good vibes <3

On another great note, today’s workout is dedicated to a group of adorable ladies I met while running a zillion errands in the city today. Especially one that took a pix with me. I apologize for not getting your name, but pls email me (let me know what cross streets we met so I know it’s you) I want to send you a little something to say thanks for being so sweet :)

andellasaid:

STEP 1: French braid hair, wrap the loose part of the braid in a bun. Secure with a hair tie.

STEP 2: Call sprinting around a playground while lifting a 33 pound child more times than you can count “cardio.”

STEP 3: Perform cardio in 84*F weather for over an hour.

STEP 4: Take hair out of French braid. Suddenly look more than presentable again.

andellasaid:

Sometimes, I think God made iPhones with FaceTime cameras, Diptic, instagram, and social media in general just so when I have a really, really good hair day after only doing so much as finger brushing my hair, there is an outlet for me to gloat and preen because hey, when you feel pretty, you feel pretty. There’s nothing narcissistic about that… Okay, maybe there is, but if you don’t love yourself, who the hell will? You deserve to think you’re pretty. You deserve to revel in the moment. And I deserve to justify my #GPOY until the cows come home because I paid good money for this hair and damn it, a month later, it’s finally working right.

andellasaid:

I have a nagging suspicion that the very first day of on-ramp may be like dry humping and not the full monty, but here’s to popping that crossfit cherry, y’all.

andellasaid:

GPOY, the “actually, that’s iced coffee, not water,” edition. Or, everything you need to know about me in a photograph, down to my theory that caffeine is a food group and the oversized cat eye frames my sister swears I bought just so I could channel the kid karrying Kardashian. (I will neither confirm nor deny these allegations, but home brewed iced coffee is a revelation, y’all.)

& ella said...: things the pool taught me today.:

andellasaid:

I grew up in houses with pools. The fact that Los Angeles is usually experiencing some perpetual sort of dry heat only helped the fact that it seemed to serve as a status symbol of sorts to my father. All the houses he ever bought had pools, and my siblings and I were always the kids to have the…
