Cycling is one of my greatest pleasures! London has some great bike trails and I have had a great group of friends to cycle with. This is why I train, so that getting out on my bicycle feels fun and enjoyable. What’s your play? The activity that makes all the hard work worth it? Drop it in the comments below.

Drove my son to the Detroit airport today. 6 hours round trip in the car. Came home and my upper back and shoulders were screaming. So I did a quick basement workout and finished with prone Y's, T's, and W's. Posted the video on Instagram — go watch it if you want to follow along. This is one of the simplest movements I know and one of the most effective after a long day of sitting. No equipment. A rolled up towel under your forehead. Floor. 5 minutes. If you sit for any length of time during the day — and most of us do — your upper back and shoulders are suffering for it. This opens everything back up. Try it tonight and come back and tell me how it felt. Even if you've never done it before. I'll answer any questions about form. 💪

Posted a video on Instagram today that pretty much sums up my gym session. First rep on the leg curl. Body said nope. I laughed. Dropped the weight. Kept going. Not every day is a PR day. Some days you show up feeling off and the weights remind you real quick. But here's what I know after doing this for 5 years: a bad day at the gym beats a good day on the couch. Every time. I came home feeling better than when I left. That's always the deal. Show up feeling rough. Leave feeling human again. Anyone else have a humbling gym moment recently? I know I'm not the only one. 😂 Drop it below. Let's laugh about it together. 💪

Most mornings for almost five years I've gotten on my stationary bike and pedaled. It's not a workout. I don't track anything. I don't go fast. When I first started training my trainer suggested cycling a couple times a week for my back. I decided to make it a daily practice. And I reframed it completely. There are people all over the world who ride a bike to work every day. That's not exercise. It's transportation. So that's what my morning ride is. Transportation into my day. I get on. I pedal. Sometimes 30 minutes. Sometimes a podcast pulls me in and it turns into 60. Some days I skip it. Leg day is already enough. Life happens. But the pattern holds. Most mornings I'm on that bike before the house wakes up. Five years later it's the most consistent habit I have. I don't even think about it anymore. It's just what I do. Here's my question for you: Do you have a daily non-negotiable? Something you do most mornings no matter what? Even 5 or 10 minutes? If you do — drop it below. I want to hear what gets you moving. If you don't have one yet — what's ONE thing you could start this week? A walk around the block? 10 minutes of stretching? Dancing in your kitchen? Pick one. Tell me below. Then do it tomorrow. 💪

Five years ago my husband and I did a massive landscaping project. Weeks of moving boulders, pulling out a riverbed, hauling rocks. It left me with daily back pain that had me at the chiropractor every week. That pain sent me to a trainer. Strength training changed everything. Yesterday I was back in the garden. Boulders that needed moving. My son cheered me on "it's like a strongman competition!" 300 pounds is an exaggeration! He did move a few after stopped filming me. 😂 Five years ago this kind of work broke me. Yesterday it was just a Tuesday afternoon. Here's my question for you: What's something you've stopped doing because your body won't cooperate? Gardening? Hiking? Playing on the floor with your grandkids? Carrying groceries without pain? Whatever it is — it doesn't have to stay that way. I'm proof. Drop it below. I want to know what you're working toward getting back. 💪
