One of my favorite & staple movements for working my triceps – I squeeze my triceps as my elbows are extended and move back (on the negative) very slowly, which I’ve found is key to the movement!
Fitness Barbie Gym Style:
Top & Pants: Lululemon
Tip of the Day: Keep pushing forward during your slumps! I enjoyed a wonderful week back in Wisconsin for a dental school interview (good excuse to get home and see my family and friends). I was more relaxed with workouts and stuck to my diet 80%, while enjoying some treats! I think of health as a lifestyle – I don’t have an off season; I do this because I genuinely enjoy eating right and working out on a daily basis. With that said, it’s no surprise that my abs are playing a little bit of hide and seek after a relaxed week. Demotivating? Absolutely not! Don’t allow one day or one glance in the mirror dictate how you feel about yourself. You’d be surprised at how quickly you can get your body back to normal!
Daily Dose of Motivation: Now, what do you do when you feel a lack of motivation?? One of my favorite things – retail therapy 😉 There’s nothing wrong with a little material motivation every now and then. I think of it as an investment in my health! LOVING my new Lululemon purist water bottle! Optimism! Positivity!
QUESTION OF THE DAY: What’s your guilty pleasure when it comes to motivational gym gear?

I have a weak spot for headbands. My faves are Lulu and Buff brands. I can't get my head in the game without one!
