I ran out of my rice cakes and needed something new for my post-workout eats! I’m not a cook or a baker, but I am happy to report I came up with this creation AND one of my kiddos was digging into my stash, so I know it turned out good! -Recipe- 80 g oat […]
Hello 2015! Time for a new season!
Life has a really interesting way of coming about. From 2004-2007, we got our start in Real Estate and I filled the role as General Contractor building and designing these three custom homes in Fishers, IN. As a mother of two, that season was one of the highlights of my life and I was living […]
Fit Gal’s Weekly Favorite Exercise: Cable Pull-Thru
One of the exercises I do on a weekly basis on a Leg Day is a cable pull-thru. I had my son take three pictures in different stages, so I’ll talk you through each phase. These feel great on the hamstrings and really help with the glute-ham tie-in. Some key points: 1. Your head stays […]
Fit Gal’s Weekly Favorite Exercise: Triceps Superset
This week I was running short on time, so I decided to Superset my triceps exercises. My plan actually called for an incline bench skull crusher, but the gym was very busy and I could not get a bench. So I went to a similar exercise, the overhead triceps cable extension. For this you’ll want […]
Fit Gal’s Weekly Favorite Exercise: Standing/Lying Cable Upright Rows
A friend came to lift with me this past week and challenged me to some new ideas. On my plan was a DB upright row. So we did this one instead! I know I got some funny looks, but you gotta try it! I started by standing at the cables. Because the range of motion […]

Fit Gal’s Weekly Favorite Exercise: Incline Treadmill
When I do my cardio, one of my favorite methods is the incline treadmill, no hands! I’ve been on the treadmill in a HIIT (high intensity interval training) or steady-state format. After a few minutes of warm-up, I like to pitch the incline as high as it will go and in this case it is […]
My Favorite Dish Revamped…..Chicken Mexicana!

Ingredients: 60 ounces of boneless, skinless chicken breasts (serving sizes are based off 5-oz precooked-weight chicken breasts) 1 4-ounce can of diced green chiles 1.5 cups colby […]
Fit Gal’s Weekly Favorite Exercise: Cable Back Rows
This week’s favorite exercise is the cable back rows. I keep a slight bend in my knees and that helps me know how far back to sit on the bench. The key to this exercise is to keep your back in an upright position the entire time. Many times I see people leaning forward and […]
