Some thoughts and discussions from me.
Some thoughts and discussions from me.
1. I have no plans for this weekend. Weird! Well, aside from teaching boot camp. I think I might finally coerce some friends into going hiking with me at Brainard Lake.
2. I miss Oprah. She was on Kelly and Michael this week, so then I went on her Instagram account and looked at just about every picture of hers.
I miss Oprah!! Wish we got the OWN network here….
3. Foam rolling and dynamic warm ups before a workout makes a WORLD of difference in your workout. A WORLD. My overhead squats suck usually. However, Wednesday I spent 15 minutes warming up and rolling out the muscles along my thoracic spine, and BAM! I did three sets of overhead squats with good form.
4. That same night, my friend, Katie and I drove over to Upslope Brewery for happy hour. Not only had we not visited yet (and it’s right in Boulder!) but I also had to go support my girl, Lauren!
Lauren does demo’s for KIND around the Greater Denver Area, and Wednesday she was at Upslope. Beer + KIND bars = a good thing.
5. Did I tell you I already drank pumpkin beer and there’s still 41 days left of summer?
It happened. Shane brought it home, not knowing if I’d be happy or annoyed. I was the former, because this beer is delicious! <3 New Belgium.
6. This is the best gluten-free bread that I’ve ever tasted:
(don’t mind the bacon overlap.) Great Harvest FTW!
7. My new Jam!
I put on the mulit-color polka dot jamberry nails last night (if you order, make sure to select Paige’s party!) and I love them! The hot pink were fun, but these take it up to a whole new level
8. Yesterday I ventured to Chautauqua Park and hiked Royal Arch with Lauren (and a new friend, Andrea!)
It always provides breath-taking views, and it always kicks. my. booty. Hellooooo glutes!
9. From the time I started this post to the time I finished, I now have plans! I’ll tell you all about it in the next post! And of course post about it on Instagram all the while
10. OK, I have to round this out to 10. 9 is just a weird number. I finished Orange is the New Black this week.
It’s an insanely addictive Netflix original series and I just couldn’t get enough of it. It starts out slow, but by the 3rd episode I was hooked. Hooked! Then last night I started watching Weeds, because I read it was directed by the same director
How was your week?
What show are you currently hooked on?
I had no idea great harvest makes gluten free bread! I’m going to have to try that asap! Looks delicious!

I blew through Orange is the New Black in like 4 days and we are now up to the last season of Weeds. Both so addicting!!!
Jealous of all your hikes with friends! I don’t know anyone here that will hike with me- I’m up in the Canadian Rockies 🙁

I love Orange is the new black. Weeds is soo good, the first few seasons are the best then it sort of goes down hill.

We finished Orange is the New Black because we loved Weeds!! Totally addictive! Agree 100% with the foam rolling and dynamic warm-up comment. For sure!

I thought of Lauren when I purchased kind bars yesterday :). Pumpkin beer is totally delicious. Hope you have an amazing weekend
I think about 50% of the content of our blog post today is the same. I barely even saw you this week and we STILL managed to make that happen! I want to hike at Brainard Lake! One of these days…
Lauren @ Oatmeal after Spinning recently posted……From the Week
Haha! I know 🙂 Great minds… 😉
I gotta foam roll more often! It feels awesome after a workout but I didn’t know it could make such a difference before working out. Enjoy your weekend!
