November 20, 2017 By Mindy

This is a concept I have studied for myself and problem solved with many clients. From a training and competing perspective, I look to see if the back of the legs are what I call “clean”. This is an area that many bodies tend to hold body fat and not just body fat, cellulite. Can […]

Lasting Changes do NOT happen in 12 Weeks!

April 8, 2017 By Mindy

  Are you upset because you didn’t hit your goals in 12 weeks? Well I didn’t either! •2010: I was down from 225 to about 175 here and was to the point where my body wanted to be comfortably. My old lifestyle would have kept producing that result. But I was not ok with staying […]

Cut back to make progress? Yes! Less is More!

December 20, 2016 By Mindy

I see this ALL the time in my MyFitnessPal app. People track their workouts and equate a calorie burn to what they think is going to be a body fat burn. Here are the details on that:   -We can get an “estimate” on a machine or a watch for the presumed calories expended to […]

Chasing the Calorie Burn!

September 23, 2016 By Mindy

We need to quit chasing a high-cardio calorie burn and focus on being active instead. Here’s why: —– Cardio time! I truly enjoy being active and my body loves to move, but I only use cardio strategically about eight to ten weeks before a show. Otherwise I weight train consistently year round and stay really […]

Traveling? Need a Change? Try this Circuit!

July 9, 2016 By Mindy

Written on July 3, 2016 while at the NPC Chicago “Wings of Strength” show: —– I did a ‪circuit‬ before my ‪cardio‬ today, still at the hotel in their closet-sized gym.

June 15, 2016 By Mindy

Parts of this post were originally written in the summer of 2013.  As the warm weather is upon us, people are traveling, and more of us are outdoors, there are great opportunities to be active in your own backyard, at the sports field, or at a park.  Use your bodyweight (which is resistance) to put some […]

Is it time to rest? When to take a Deload.

November 15, 2015 By Mindy

Mindy Irish; NASM CPT; BS Physical Education I’m a go-go type of person.  I love to set a plan and rock the consistency.  But that has a downside as well.  Going too hard and too much can turn around and bite you, and it can happen to ALL of us.  Those that lift regularly week […]
