Until today, I never much cared for cherry tomatoes. I love ketchup, tomato sauce, and all the many tomato things – but ask me to grab a tomato off the vine and take a bite…Let’s just say I had other opinions! I blame the texture… So what inspired me to try one today? To venture […]
It’s 6:40 AM on a Monday, and you’re exhausted (the good kind). You just finished an Urban Athlete workout, and you start to grab your things to leave and head to work, when… Your workout buddy (the one who’s had more coffee than you) asks, “You doing the CoreCorner today?” You were never one for […]
I started drinking coffee during my senior year of college. You might be thinking – “Well, that makes sense. She’s staying up late applying to grad schools, on top of studying for her classes. No wonder she started to drink coffee – most people do.” I started to drink coffee, because my social circles at […]
Blog posts should be nothing but relatable, right? Which is why this is a safe space for me to talk about something that you might also do, right? Right? Okay, right. Every evening, I set a very ambitious alarm on my phone (the keyword being ambitious). Sometimes, I find myself dreaming that I had an “old-fashioned” […]
Like anything we talk about at UA – we always talk about lifestyle patterns as they relate to the whole person. By whole person, I mean physically, mentally, and emotionally. Today, I am going to talk about patience, and I hope to discuss it holistically as I just mentioned. First, let me ask: Do you […]
How many plank exercises can you name in 30 seconds? Star, Front, Forearm, Side, Tripod, Plank Reaches, Plank Jacks, Single-Leg, Elevated. That was my list! What’s yours? Set a timer on your phone, and let us know. Or maybe I just gave you nine plank exercises that now you can’t get out of your head…(Plus […]
You and I both have things that we just really love to do. You and I also have things that we know are good for us to do, but they may not be what we necessarily love to do. Everyone exercises for different reasons. For some of us, it may be because we love it. For others of […]
JDRF’s mission to support all those with T1D is near to the heart of Urban Athlete and its members. From a 5k Farmer’s Walk to our Annual Burpees and Burgers event each summer, Urban Athlete is always looking for ways to give back to JDRF. Some quick facts: T1D is an autoimmune disease and is […]
There are so many wonderful metaphors to be made with trees, and I am sure you’ve already heard quite a few. The first metaphor to trees I heard came when I was riding a horse. (Seems accurate enough…) My trainer told me that my core was the trunk of the tree and my arms were […]
We know it’s been hard to keep track of what day it is…Can you believe it’s already the holiday season? (My apologies if panic ensued…) More like the season for holiday workouts! This past Monday, we held our annual Memorial Day workout at 9AM with over 40 people in attendance. Some were near and others […]
