THE IMPORTANCE OF MYOFASCIAL RELEASE

Recovery is an important part of any training program. My very favorite way to recover is myofascial release via foam rolling.

Myofascial release is so undervalued, and if you commit to a regular foam rolling habit the results are incredible. I fully believe that it helps prevent injury. If you want to roll in the AM, I recommend rolling vigorously to stimulate blood flow and wake your limbs up. Nighttime rolling should be gentler, slower and over time it starts to feel relaxing. Personally I find it most beneficial to hit my hamstrings and back before heading to sleep. I’ll admit there’s a pretty high barrier to entry, since the first few times rolling can feel very uncomfortable. I like to find the points of tension as I roll, and pause on them breathing into that spot. Breaking up the fascia feels so good and therapeutic to me before bed.

SUMMER SOLSTICE

Here, in the Northern Hemisphere, the air ripens, heat intensifies, and time slows on this longest day of the year. Known in the Gaelic calendar as Litha, it’s a time of celebration. We honor sunlight and its life giving and preserving qualities, and our own brightness and light.

I’m ready to play and soak up the good energy that summer brings. It’s time to shift into manifestation mode and make our goals a reality. Light a bonfire, dance under the stars and delight in this Earth’s immense beauty. Here are five ways to celebrate the much-loved incoming season.

Rise Early

Watching the sun rise is a powerful reminder of nature’s cycles and our often overlooked circadian rhythm. Wake up early and watch it rise with your coffee or tea and feel how those diamond minutes fill you with light and positive energy.

Tune Into Nature

The best way to honor the sun is to be in it, so take your Studio LB workout outdoors, eat outside, and buy fresh flowers to celebrate the new season and the abundance of life that the sun gives us.

Set Summer Intentions

This week is the perfect time to set intentions and re-visit goals for the rest of the year. Reflect on projects and ideas that have been brewing since winter/spring. It’s a great time for a check-in, so make a list or light and candle and manifest what you want and let go of and what you want to keep.

Be Free

Summer is an opportunity to slow down, loosen the reigns, and tune into your inner child. The warmer months bring us a carefree sense of freedom, and an expansive energy that propels us into action as we spend more time outdoors.

SEVEN TIPS FOR BIKINI CONFIDENCE

I’ve been in the fitness industry and have worked with (mostly) women for almost two decades. Each year, as winter turns to spring, women call on me when they want to feel their best wearing less. As I learn about what they want to change about their physical bodies, I also help them do the mental work and identify what they love about themselves. More than the results they achieve with SLB, I love to help women build confidence and realize that their body is the most uniquely beautiful and the most amazing thing that they will ever own.

I’m a pro at making myself look larger and longer both on and off camera. If you’ve never met me in person, I’m shockingly petite (5’0 and 100 lbs) but I’ve always been incredibly curvy. I’ve gone through stages where I didn’t love my curves and wished I was like, AT LEAST 5’2”, but over the years I’ve learned to really appreciate and truly love my body. I’m here to tell you that loving your body takes time but it’s not difficult to do.

Identify and Own your Strengths

Instead of picking yourself apart or comparing yourself to someone else, focus on your what makes you uniquely beautiful. I promise that you can identify one thing you love about yourself and that will turn into ten.

Drop into the Physical

I like to use movement to break negative patterns and shift my mindset. The quickest and easiest way to upgrade your mood is to move. You can literally move the negative out of your mind and body, because movement can chemically change how you feel. Emotion is enhanced by motion, and movement can make you feel good, sexy, strong, beautiful and empowered. I’m biased but there is nothing out there that will tone and shape your body as quickly as Studio LB. Combining cardio and resistance training is key and even if you’re just doing our Quick Burn workouts, you are guaranteed results in as little as ten workouts. It’s as instant gratification as it gets.

Self-Care

Take a bath, apply a mask or a spray tan, and just flirt with life a little bit more. Love and the libido is a vital sign in your well-being and your body’s eco-system. I’m not just talking about sex. Everything in life is connected to the heart, desire and feeling alive. I’ve learned that love really starts at home – within ourselves. Feeling sexy (for myself) allows me to tap into my creativity, confidence, all that is feminine and ultimately - loving my body.

Wear what feels good

Forget about what’s trendy and stick to what you feel the most confident and comfortable in…and smile. Nobody will notice your insecurities if you feel good and look authentically happy.

Eat with LB

A few days before you’re planning on being in a bikini, drink plenty of water and decrease sodium and foods that cause bloating. It's not a case of healthy vs. unhealthy – choose still over sparkling water and stay away from raw veggies like cabbage or broccoli and beans which can cause bloating. I always choose anti-bloat options like sauteed greens and grilled chicken before I show major skin.

Posture Perfect

Stand up straight with your shoulders pulled back and down and with as much confidence as you can gather. Lengthening your spine out through the crown of your head is literally the quickest and most effective change you can make.

High Pony

Volume or “big hair” draws attention to the upper half of your body, balancing your silhouette and providing a distraction from any parts you're not in love with at the current moment. A high pony adds two inches in height and stretches you out. Even a sun hat will do the trick!

Happy Monday! I hope everyone had an amazing weekend. This week is a mix of new and a few of our favorite classics from the library. If you’re looking for a grounded alternative to Hail Mary, check out Lion’s Mane or Main. I’ll be in your inbox today!

FULL LENGTH

Hail Mary is a 45-minute single weight standing core sculpt with a classic format that is so effective and efficient. This one combines compound movement combos and requires balance so I recommend staying in the 5-10 lb range in order to protect your knees. You’ll need one medium to heavy weight and a mat.

Lion’s Mane is a basic core sculpt that targets the entire body. It begins with an elongated abs series, then moves on to glute work, side lying series, pushups and a back stretch at the end. All you’ll need is a set of light weights and a mat.

BODY PARTS

Spiderwebs are symbols of fate and luck. This 12-min, grounded and no equipment BP combines our classic grounded glute series with one of my favorite ab series.

QUICK BURN

Dial It In is a 25-min standing abs and core QB that combines some of my favorite multi-directional (flexion, extension and rotation) ab movements which also multi-task the glutes. Wrist weights make this one total-body. You’ll need wrist weights or light weights.

4x4 is a 26-minute cardio + sculpt that works multi-angles and is full-body perfection with compound movements. You'll need light to medium weights and a mat.
