This morning I got into the gym before work and started week 5 of #StrengthFeed! I didn’t head out of my apartment until a bit later than I wanted to, so I went to the closer LA Fitness for today’s leg day. I usually go to one that’s just a few minuted further because they have round plates which are great for deadlifts instead of the octagon ones but that gym is always more full (since it’s better) and I didn’t want to risk wasting time driving and having to wait for people. This gym I usually just go to for upper body since they have all of the dumbbells I need but today was a struggle. I did my bask squats and deadlifts (without the round plates, but whatever) but the leg press machine for single leg presses wasn’t super amazing since the seat is pretty uncomfortable, the seated calf raise machine didn’t work at all (the top part wouldn’t stay down so I couldn’t use it), and the bar for hanging leg raises didn’t have a grip on it so my hands kept slipping. Not my best day at the gym, but I got it done and still made it work. For future leg days, I will be sure to get up and out of my apartment earlier so I can go to the better LA Fitness and have not just a good workout, but a great one! Swipe for 2 of my back squat sets, 2 of my deadlift sets, and a lot of unnecessary man grunting 🌿 . . . . . . . . #lowithoutlimits #strengthfeedguide #womenwholift #workout #morningworkout #legday #backsquat #deadlift #workoutmotivation #womenwhoworkout #bossgirlbloggers #strengthtraining #womenwhoworkout #lafitness #losangeles #california #morningmotivation #lululemon #womenwholift #trainingguide #health #healthy #healthylifestyle #womenstrength #workoutwomen #workoutprogram

Switching up my salad! I love cook books and always look at them for inspiration but when it comes to actually making the food in them, I never do. Since I don’t want to spend time or grocery money on making food that I may hate, I always end up sticking to my same few lunches week after week. Since starting work again, I’ve only been having my falafel salad bowls or Frank’s chicken salad bowls and this week I wanted a change. Yesterday, I took a peek into #KitchenIntuition by Devyn Sisson and saw the Veggie Salad. It consisted of different roasted veggies on mixed greens (two things I do for my other lunches anyway) with half an avocado and a home-made salad dressing. This recipe was super easy to meal prefer yesterday and is SO good! I also threw on 4oz. of chicken (with a little bit of #Nandos #PeriPeri seasoning) to get some extra protein in. BTW gram-for-gram, protein is more filling than carbs or (healthy) fats! I also just use extra virgin olive oil for a lot of my salads so mixing up something new was fun and I could finally use this little dressing container from The Container Store. Salads don’t have to be boring and are also the easiest things to make and meal prep for 🌿 . . . . . . . #lowithoutlimits #mealprep #mealprepping #mealprepper #worklunch #commuterlunch #millennial #pyrex #lovesprouts #roastedveggies #mixedgreens #evoo #extravirginoliveoil #avocado #healthyfats #iifym #macros #bossgirlbloggers #strengthfeed #veggiesalad #diydressing #homemadedressing #homemade #healthylunch #nutrition #healthmotivation #nutritioninspiration

Half a week late but I FINALLY finished editing my Paris video from our family vacation this summer! We spent six days there and hit all the major spots as well as just relax on Champ de Mars for Father’s Day. Last year, I got into Paris on Bastille Day and the day after almost everything was closed so while I still got to explore the city it was rear going back this summer and getting to do everything I wanted! The link to the video is in my bio 🌎 . . . . . . #lowithoutlimits #summeroflo #paris #parisfrance #europe2018 #france #parisvacation #travelvideo #arcdetriomphe #monmartrevillage #basiliciadesacrecoeur #sacrecoeur #chateaudeversailles #versailles #thelouvre #eiffeltower #champdemars #notredamecathedral #notredamedeparis #shakespeareandcompany #placedelaconcorde #bossgirlbloggers #familyvacation #traveleurope #summertravel

When you’re short on time and can’t make it to the gym before or after work, something is always better than nothing! Grab some resistance bands if you have them, or even just no equipment at all, and knock out a quick at home workout in just 15 minutes. This is a resistance band delt fly from my at-home back video and you can see the whole routine on my YouTube! 🌿 . . . . . . #lowithoutlimits #backworkout #workout #losangeles #california #strengthfeed #bossgirlbloggers #athomeworkout #onthegoworkout #resistancebands #resistancebandsworkout #athome #health #healthy #travel #travelworkout #athomeback #noequipment #noequipmentworkout #15minuteworkout #lululemon

H26BD to the only gal I’ll sk8 for, couples dance to Harry Styles with, do an actual bday post for, and give half a bottle of Franks Buffalo sauce to. You’re easily my fave leo from Wisconsin which is some tough competition. Have a blessed day.

Today I got a new mattress, a new job, and saw Harry Styles and idk which is cooler #themattress
