5 minute core workout

May 25, 2016 //  by Di Hickman

Happy Workout Wednesday! I have my Lorna Jane "Happy" tank on so let's do a  5 minute core workout you can do ANYWHERE! That's been the theme of the workouts this month in case you hadn't noticed. No equipment needed! Honestly I don't spend a lot of time working my abs, I really don't think you need to. Frankly 5-10 minutes is the max I generally spend, and that's usually about twice a week. The full workout video is below, but  don't forget to check out my YouTube channel for more workout …

September 17, 2015 //  by Di Hickman

While at Blogfest in July I got to meet some pretty freakin' awesome health and fitness bloggers. I knew immediately a few bloggers that I wanted to work with.

Today's blog post is brought to you by Personal Trainer, and endurance cardio junkie Ariana, plus don't forget to check out my …

12 minute core workout

October 29, 2014 //  by Di Hickman

 Hey fitness family, time for a new workout here on the website and I decided that this week should be a core workout, mostly because I'm pooped. We went to Disneyland Sunday and had a hella late night which left us both absolutely exhausted. Then I had to work yesterday which I did ok with till midway through my bodypump class at Golds last night when I felt like I'd got NOTHING left, no gas left in the tank. I managed to gather it up from somewhere though and finished the class ;) Even though …

Review – CORE Foods

April 23, 2013 //  by Di Hickman

Before I went to England in January/February I signed up to take part in a review for CORE foods. Just before we were due to leave they contacted me telling me the food was due to arrive, as I knew I'd be out of the country I asked them to delay till I got back and they agreed :) When I got home mid February my sample pack arrived later that week. I want to thank CORE foods for their understanding. I really wanted to do this review and they accomodated my last minute travel plans. So on with the …

Purvottanasana for beginners – modifications, variations and progressions

April 12, 2022 //  by Di Hickman

Recently I had a little bit of an epiphany. My brain doesn't work the "typical" way. While I personally like watching short informative videos (usually on 1.5 speed) when creating content, especially tutorials, I want to spill out EVERYTHING about the subject. Time to reign in it, with shorter and more niched content. So today we're discussing reverse purvottanasana for beginners. Just the basics modifications and progression variations. If you can’t view the embedded video above, you …

March 29, 2022 //  by Di Hickman

A couple of weeks ago I did a basic tutorial on bird dog, and here we are discussing bird dog, again. This time though we're discussing the bird dog movement exercise where you extend opposite arm and leg, then draw them in towards the navel. The big question is in bird dog movement do you allow the spine to move, or keep it stable? Which variation of this yoga exercise is correct? If you can’t view the embedded video above, you can view the video on YouTube. Maybe add it to a playlist? …
