How To Stretch Your Hamstrings

Tight hamstrings can not only effect your workouts but they can also cause lower back pain. Learning how to stretch them properly is key. If you incorporate some stretches into your weekly workout routine, you’ll become more flexible, have better running form and also decrease injuries to your lower back. But, be sure to stretch your hamstrings AFTER your workout or after you warmup first. You never want to stretch cold muscles – especially hamstrings. You also don’t want to OVERSTRETCH your hamstrings or you could end up pulling a muscle and make things worse. So, go easy on the stretches and make sure you warm. Another good option for hamstring stretching is the foam roller.

 

Ford Mobile Gym Series – Workout With Your Truck!

I’m excited to share this fun project with Ford! I was asked to create a workout series for truck owners that they could do any time, anywhere! So, below is the first workout in my Ford Mobile Gym Series – the “Built Ford Tough Total Body Workout”

Did you know you can get in a great workout with just your truck? Ford trucks have great features like the flip-up grab bars, tailgates and step bar! You can work your upper body, lower body and core by just using your body weight! Below is a sample workout that I designed to build muscle strength and get you lean! This workout is perfect for after work when you can’t make it to the gym, if you are traveling or next time you take your truck on a camping trip! Get your friends involved and have fun!

Stay tuned for our next video in the Ford Mobile Gym Series…the “Truckin’ It Cardio Workout”!

AMRAP Workout with Oakley Women

Carrie and I are back this week with Oakley Women featuring our AMRAP Workout! This is a quick, efficient workout you can do in 5-10 minutes! If you have more time – try to do 20 minutes or mix in some extra cardio before or after! Give it a try!

Hottie H.I.I.T. Workout With Oakley Women

I’m excited about the debut of my new workout series with Oakley Women! My partner Carrie and I went out to film these videos in CA and have been looking forward to the launch! This is the first video called “Hottie H.I.I.T” and it’s a high intensity interval training workout. It’s pretty challenging – and it especially was for me since I was just 4 months postpartum! But, it’s a great workout for all levels! Give it a try and let me know what you think in the comments below!

New Video Series Coming Soon!

I was out in Laguna Beach, CA last week working on some fun new projects with Oakley Women! My partner Carrie and I featured some workouts that we do at our bootcamp, along with some product reviews, cooking demos and more! The project is still in the works – so stay tuned for more details and when the videos will be released! In the meantime, I encourage you to check out some of their new spring/summer gear (we are wearing it in the pics/videos) -the fit and bright colors are amazing!
