Just My Style
Somehow this post I pre-wrote and scheduled for this am popped up on my site last night for a little while. Sorry for the confusion if you’re in the handful who happened to find it!
Goood morning! How are you all? I’m doing well enough. I had a great spin class yesterday! It was the first time in what feels like for-ev-er that I managed to get in on a class from one of my two favorite instructors.
I have a very specific training style that I adore: loud, in your face, and pushing you to your max, while still somehow seeming approachable, friendly, and fun. Sophie and Sara at my gym both have it. The others - well, they’re different. Not bad by any means…just not as loud. Or more playful than pushing. Simply not my style.
I love the push I get from my favorite instructors. The certain motivational phrases they choose to use know just how to make me push past the burning sensation in my thighs on that long, steep climb. The energetic vibe pouring from them pulls me through the toughest of sprints. The sweat dripping off their bodies lets me know just how hard I can work. I like my fitness style hard-core and get-er-done.
My food on the other hand?? I like my food like I like my worship style – laidback and carefree. Especially on days when I have the kids from morning until bedtime.
Peter has been working hard after he gets home from work to take care of a few outdoor tasks on our house that need attention. This leaves me by myself with the kids from morning until bedtime a couple days a week…and I’m not exactly in the mood to cook full meals those days. I could make excuses and have ice-cream for dinner (because that sure did sound good last night), but I make a healthy dinner work. Good thing breakfast for dinner is such a winner around here!
I made a breakfast “hash” of sorts. I diced up three red potatoes into small chunks and cooked them in a small bit of oil with some salt, pepper, and onion until they were softened. I then added some spinach to the pan to wilt in with the potatoes. I topped off the hash with two over-medium eggs.
Gotta love the runny yolk! I think I love eggs more for dinner than breakfast. Quick. Easy. Satsifying. And cheap, too! Winner winner chicken egg dinner!
- Do you prefer a certain style of group fitness instructor? What?
- Eggs: yay or nay? When do you eat them most – breakfast, lunch, or dinner?
