Happy Mondaaaaaay! It’s officially February. Are you eating a huge slice of cake since your whole30 is over or are you keeping it together? That’s the one reason why I can’t do whole30. I have tried it in the past and at day 31, I’m eating anything I can get my hands on. Not exactly healthy behavior. So hopefully that isn’t the case f0r you and you’re able to keep kicking ass at your New Year’s goals! At our gym, a handful of women are doing a women’s transformation class and haven’t been drinking at all since the New Year. It’s absolutely insane what a difference it makes. It body composition, in workouts, or just in how they glow. It’s so cool to watch, so hopefully you’re experiencing some of those things and staying motivated!

Oh Red Rocks!! You are making me miss my home state right about now. We have a foot of snow and there is no outdoor exercising to be had. Looks like such a fun workout week!
I’m finishing up a whole30 (well, I ate some bread this weekend so I’m calling it a whole27 and saying that was my re-introduction to gluten…which did not feel so great but anyway) and already know what donut I’m getting the next time I go to my favorite coffeeshop to work. I definitely like how I feel now, but give me some cheese and chocolate please! Totally with you on the eat everything once it’s over thing. Though I do think I’ll be eating paleo-ish for the forseeable future…I definitely feel better now than I did for most of last year!
Love how supportive you are of other women’s goals, Juli! Looking awesome, strong & happy. I did the Red Rocks stairs sprint once – and I think I’ll leave it at that. Woof.
lol it’s so fun yet so gross! the breathing is the hardest part!
I am totally that person who does Whole30 then eats everything in the kitchen and more. I’ve found “diets” don’t work for me. The more I restrict foods the more I crave them. Love those GAP leggings 🙂
same here. if i tell myself i can have whatever i want, then i don’t crave it as much and actually stay on track!
I love that hoodie! Looks like a great week of workouts.
I’m not super familiar with Crossfit…but are you in the incredible shape you’re in with k ly 16 or 18 minutes of workout per day?? Or do you do additional stuff? That’s insane
everything I post is everything I do per day. crossfit style workouts tend to be shorter, once in a while there may be a workout that ranges from 30 minutes to 1 hour. but yes, that’s all i do!
Are you from Colorado, live here? It’s a great place (although I despise snow and cold)!
yep! lived here my whole life!
