Fitmas Gift Guide for Runners

December 12, 2015 //  by Di Hickman

So yesterday I gave you a gift guide for Yoga, and today I bring you installment two of Fitmas here at Workout with Di, which is my Fitmas Gift Guide for Runners. I've been more of an off/on runner as it's not something I enjoy. Honestly anything more than a 5k bores me to tears and I've written about my hatred of long distance here incase you wanted to see my reasons why I will never run a marathon. However I am married to someone who is currently training for a marathon (though is currently …

The Ultimate running belt

November 30, 2015 //  by Di Hickman

This is a sponsored post written by me on the behalf of The Ultimate Sports Pro. Whilst it is a sponsored post any opinions cited below are my own. I'm going to preface this post with a little bit about myself. I use my running belts for more than running. I use them for running, walking, for just everyday round the house listening to music when I'm dancing in my kitchen cooking, vacuuming, gardening... why? Because yoga pants don't have pockets! Which is clearly a design flaw on yoga pants, …

BEETS BLU HEART RATE MONITOR REVIEW

Review: Beets Blu Heart Rate Monitor

September 22, 2015 //  by Di Hickman

As a fitness junkie, ok I guess the proper term is "professional" I've got a lot of gadgets, equipment, apparel, shoes, bags and more. I admit it I have a problem with fitness stuff, and it's catching. Bob is pretty much a fully fledged member of the running junkie club. Between us we could probably outfit a small sports team, and open our own gym but hey that's better than wild and crazy weekends getting drunk and coming home after curfew right (disclaimer we definitely do the drunk thing, but …

THE BEST CORE EXERCISE RUNNERS

The Best Core Exercise Runners Probably Aren’t Doing

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. One such blogger was Canadian Ariana Fotinakis. I think I immediately connected to her because, like me, she's a fitness professional trying to balance work, blogging, and life; which can be pretty challenging. Today's blog post is brought to you by Personal Trainer, and endurance cardio junkie Ariana, plus don't forget to check out my …

Review: King Athletic Muscle Roller Balls

September 5, 2015 //  by Di Hickman

Incase you've been living under a rock for the last few years the hot fitness trend that's here to stay is self myofascial release (SMR). Usually this is involved a foam roller and is associated with pain so bad that it's so very good. That last part could just be me though. So when I went to IDEAWORLD in July a couple of the sessions I attended were about SMR and releasing fascia, self massage and generally inflicting pain on yourself. In one of the sessions we used Trigger Point Massage Balls …

5 REASONS TO DO AGILITY TRAINING

Agility Training, 5 reasons you should be doing it

August 2, 2015 //  by Di Hickman

Remember when you were a kid playing hopscotch on the driveway or schoolyard? Or playing tag? Or just running around in circles for the fun of it? Or maybe you challenged each other to go run to a tree and raced back? Weren't those fun? But also a great workout right? If you haven't put agility training in your workout program then your program is lacking in a very important part of fitness. So grab an agility ladder or cones and get that fire back in your workout. Not convinced? Check …

Running with dogs – handsfree leash

July 30, 2015 //  by Di Hickman

After taking 8 weeks off from running to rehabilitate a knee injury I sustained earlier in the year, both Bob and I started running again at the beginning of July. Obviously we started slow and short and I'm up to running 2 miles, and Bob did a 5k last week. To keep Pixel in tip top shape we've been taking him out on our runs too. He doesn't have a great attention span, and I've fallen over him once already but he loves being with us, and loves to run so today I'm sharing some tips on …
