I know this is a little overdue in posting, but I wanted to share with you guys some of my 2014 “promises” and what I’m doing now.
I’m ready to get back to competition this year, I want to dance more, explore new horizons, get a bit more out of my shell; it’s the revival of KRISTINA!
On the gym front, I have returned to powerlifting. I want to compete in June and break some more records, so I am training with ...

Last night I got plenty of food and plenty of sleep. Not to mention these past few weeks I’ve been hitting it hard, strength-wise. Thusly (I just wanted to say thusly), my workout at the gym was pretty awesome. Nothing special, just getting good numbers in, with plenty of energy and not trying too hard.
This included 18 wide grip pull ups (have to admit to using versagripps the whole workout, just FYI) (I think I did 18, 12, 12); rack chins with ...

This is a guest post by Lauren Sustineo, a former colleague of mine at Evolution Trainers. She moved her business, Sustineo Fitness to San Diego and is available at sustineofitness@gmail.com.
Recently I was introduced to Conrad Stalheim’s article, “Moderating the Knees In Versus Knees Out Squat Debate” summarizing an ongoing debate about knee position during the squat. This article does a great job introducing the topic and led me to the right links so that I could educate ...

I. am. OLDER! ;P
I just had my birthday and I wanted to get in some special activities to celebrate.
Saturday I wanted to do something different but I’ve already done sky diving, bungee jumping, all that stuff…so my brilliant client suggested flying trapeze! And so it was set. I actually, though, didn’t anticipate the true terror it would inspire during the act. I booked Trapeze Arts in Oakland to teach me and 3 other girl friends in an hour long ...

I was chatting with a client the other day, and discovered (gleefully) that he was into reading blogs! I had no idea. Anyway, his blogs of interest included those focused on technology, UI design, entrepreneurialism, and a quick hint of cuddly animals. I asked him if he read any health/fitness/nutrition blogs, and he said no. Partly because it can be hard for the non-trainer to know what information out there is quality, or BS! So, in his honor, I want ...

Okay, I’m just going to say this before I don’t!
I signed up for a no-gi jiu jitsu tournament on Sept 7th.
I am far from confident that I will smash, and in fact I might get smashed.
BUT.
I don’t care.
Experience is good, regardless. Any competition mat time is useful, and I am looking for some competition from some girls, and that is what I am going to get!
I am going to make an effort to get in more no-gi grappling in the ...
