Do You Need a Killer Workout Playlist This Month?

Do You Need a Killer Workout Playlist This Month?

A good playlist can make all the difference between a ”hell yeah” workout and “hell no” workout. Over the years I’ve created and archived on Spotify over 250 public workout and relaxation playlists from my 10 years of teaching group fitness at Equinox and practicing massage. This month I put together this 90 minute bad boy because I needed some musical motivation to get me moving and it’s gotten me through a 14-mile run and several “I don’t wanna” leg days. Hope you enjoy!

"Cooking with JJ" Episode 5: Simple Greek Salad with Seared Chicken

This is hands down one of my favorite salads. I'm a big fan of creamy Caesar dressings but they can be super fattening and rich. So this recipe gives the same flavor with a fraction of the calories and fat thanks to the combo of lemon juice, hummus and feta. The salad on it's own is great but if you want to make it a yummy, hot meal I'll show you how to saute chicken breast in coconut oil on your stove to top things off.

Booty Poppin Birthday Flow

My beautiful and talented friend, trainer and yoga instructor Morgan McEvilly made me this AMAZING 50 minute yoga class as my 41st birthday present. It was the perfect practice to share with my friends on a recent camping trip to Mendocino and on my vacation to Stinson Beach. She incorporates my favorite style of flow which starts with a slow progression through each phase of a sequence and then builds to a faster transition. And lots of yummy foot and hand work. I just had to share it with you! If you're body, mind and spirit needs a reset, this beautiful woman and practice will do the trick!
