STUDIO LB TO SUIT YOUR MOOD

I can’t believe how much Studio LB has grown over the past few years, and am so grateful that you all put your time, sweat-equity, and faith in me to help shape your bodies. With new full length workouts in The Program and shorter Quick Burns debuting each week, I’ve heard from some of the newer members to our community that the sheer size of the video library can be overwhelming.

While you know I urge you to stick to my weekly schedules for optimal results, there are also some days that you just want your workout to fit your mood. Here are my suggestions when mining through the library for those days you’re feeling some type of way.

If you’re feeling like the Energizer Bunny

9/10/18 Cardio (Workout 1) - Mentally prep for so many jacks you’ll lose count and a choreography sequence that will challenge your mind and body simultaneously. 

Spitfire - I don’t have to tell y’all how great of a cardio burn you’ll get from last week’s Spitfire! Next time you have energy bubbling over like crazy, cue it up and get ready to break it down.

6/11/18 Cardio (Workout 1) - Fast paced CCS that will have your pony swinging, your heels clapping, and then you’ll hit a serious challenge in the form of a spin move mid-sequence. 

1/28/19 Cardio (Workout 1) - Clocking in at 33 minutes, this workout mashes up three different short sequences interspersed with heavy weight sculpting focused on your upper body. I like to think it’s a little sexy and a lot sweaty.

If you’re feeling Bendy

Quick Burn: 23-min Rear View - Stretch the entire back of your body from head to toe, and lift your booty with no equipment necessary.

Quick Burn: 26-mint Mystic - Jams from Tame Impala and Ariana Grande lead you through a relaxing core stretch and strength flow. You finish the workout feeling limber and lean.

Quick Burn: 19-min Calm Aesthetic - Open your hips, lengthen and strengthen your arms, and get deep into your core with this mix of stretching and sculpting.

Quick Burn: 13-min Stretch - Calm your mind & warm up your muscles. This meditative stretching routine is perfect for first thing in the morning or right before bed, and it can always be added onto the beginning or end of another workout to keep you balanced and zen.

If you’re feeling Powerful

10/9/17 Workout 2 - Grab a dowel (or a Swiffer) and get ready to stabilize your core for the next 50 minutes. This is one of those sessions that can give you visible results almost immediately, which is so satisfying.

8/27/18 Workout 2 - Lifting with heavy weights makes this sculpting workout a total sweat fest, and one of the most discussed ones ever in the Studio LB facebook group!

2/25/19 Workout 2 - Post Malone, Lykke Li and Major Lazer will help get you through this crazy heavy weight and loop workout, with ankle weights for extra oomph.

If you ever need recommendations for a certain type of workout from the library to match your vibe, text me on the hotline at 424-327-5470 or start a conversation with the Studio LB community over at our Facebook page.

NICOLE'S ACTIVATION Transformation

IMG_6512.PNG

I want to preface this by saying that I’ve been doing these retreats for over a decade & this is my most meaningful transformation story to date. Meet Nicole from Philly! She works in wealth management, is a mom to grown twins & also is a g-mom. Y’all, I adore this woman SO much. Salt. Of. The. Earth and so much fun. You can see what Nicole achieved (she lost 12” in 7 days) but swipe right to see her 14 days later...she’s LITERALLY a new woman. Initially I was a little concerned b/c I don’t like to “bootcamp” people, but I knew Nicole would see mental/physical changes even if she participated in less than half of the workouts. Prior to Activation she had never trained with me and hadn’t worked out regularly in years. Also, she’s not into fish or veggies but she was there for it ALL. The most amazing thing is that Nicole gave up a Wawa coffee and creamer ☕️ addiction while on Activation. Actually, she didn’t have coffee at all in Mexico (mind-blowing). It takes so much tenacity, willpower, and mental fortitude to go from zero to 13 miles of movement in a day/20 hours in 1 week but she kept pushing. Nicole, we got the ball rolling and I’m so proud of you and happy for you. I know you feel as amazing as you look.

Lauren's Activation Transformation

Meet the beautiful Lauren from Philly! This was Lauren’s 4th retreat with me where she regained deep core strength and lost 8.875” in 7 days. She’s a busy attorney who takes weekly Barre 3 classes and just recommitted to her Studio LB practice. She has incredible form, FOCUS and body awareness. We worked to make her workouts and movement more dynamic, more impactful and full-body. Since Activation she has been running three miles a day (I’m so proud of you!). We also strengthened her lats and thoracic spine and you can see how her posture has improved in just one week. She’s much more open through the chest and shoulders. Lauren, you look FANTASTIC

This week's workouts:  Super, Creature of Habit, Lucky & Mystic

LB TV: This week’s episode is all about what I do to achieve total confidence on MDW!

New Full-Length Workouts: This week’s Cardio + Sculpt Super is a 49-min. total-body cardio + no equipment sculpt that begins with low-impact, sculpting cardio and moves into high energy classics with a breakdown, then transitions into burpees, pushups and Pretty Girl standing sculpting. Creature of Habit is a 40-min. total-body core-focused sculpt that begins with standing abs, plenty of rotation (and our bonus move from last week!), oblique and hip work with a pushup break-down. If you like our Standing Abs, you’ll love this one!

Quick Burn Workouts: Lucky a 25-min. super fun and effective Cardio + Sculpt. Expect to kick into your fat burners, and work up a sweat. Mystic is a 26-min. balanced blend of core sculpting (plank jacks, pushups, lunges and standing balance switches that really stretch the hamstrings and strengthen the entire body.

CAT'S ACTIVATION TRANSFORMATION

CatTransformation.JPG

Meet Cat from LA! Cat lost 11” (11.6875” to be exact) and gained so much physical and mental strength in just 7 days. She’s a busy professional who fits in weekly Soulcycle, private Pilates sessions, Studio LB Quick Burn workouts & occasional private/digital sessions with me. For the past few years I’ve been trying to get her to attend an Activation b/c I KNEW it’s exactly what she needed, and I’m so glad she went to Sayulita. Cat’s adventurous, fun, and always up for anything. She has really great form and body awareness. She has tight hip flexors, traps and SCM. We worked to strengthen her weakened levator scapulae and you can see how much her posture has improved in just one week. She’s much more open through the chest and shoulders. Congrats, Cat! You look freaking phenomenal!

KATIE'S ACTIVATION TRANSFORMATION

IMG_6509.PNG

I’m featuring some of the women that went on Activation Sayulita with me last week! What we achieve in just SEVEN DAYS never ceases to amaze me. Our group of 10 women lost 86” and gained so much strength without missing a meal/margaritas/dessert. I’m kicking off with my partner in crime, Katie. Katie is naturally lean and follows a vegan diet. She’s strong, loves to be challenged and she really excels during our beach workouts. Her challenges are firing into her Serratus Anterior and keeping her neck and jaw relaxed during breath-work and sculpting. Katie lost five inches and I love that her abs are popping and hips are more balanced on day seven. Katie, you look so fit!

4/29/19: DIY TIPS

LaurenBoggi.PNG

We’re in-between months and it’s the perfect time to explore the Studio before the May Program begins on Monday! Every week I connect with many of you who are traveling, returning from a hiatus, or have trouble following the weekly schedules because…Life. There are so many ways to use Studio LB and at the end of the day it should work for you whether it’s your main thing or your side piece.

You receive four new workouts each week, but you also have an extensive workout library that’s just shy of 500 workouts and there are SO many gems in there!

There’s a lot to explore, celebrate, and re-visit, and this week is an ideal starting point to showcase a few Studio LB favorites and DIY tips. The beauty of these tips is that they work regardless of workout style (Cardio, Sculpt Standing or Grounded) or season:

Know your Goals

Part of DIY’ing it is understanding what your personal goals are. From there, you can achieve your goals. For example, if one of your goals is fat loss, you’ll want to lift heavy during full length workouts (unless I say otherwise) and also choose workouts that target the large muscles of the lower body (fat burners). FYI: I create at two of these for you each week.

Make it Personal

If something isn’t working for you in a particular week, why head back to a favorite or peruse the Quick Burn library? There’s no reason to fear mixing it up. If you've been adding your favorite workouts to "My List" in Studio LB, this is a great place to start. 

Don’t be afraid to go back in time 

My workouts are always evolving, so something from 2017 or 2018 may feel really fresh. To jump back in time go to Series--> The Full Library--> choose a previous month from the drop down menu.  (Note: we've greatly improved our audio quality over the past two years. The workouts were great in 2017, but the audio is not).

Play with Props

Do you always start with cardio or sculpt? Why not start from a new perspective and search a prop that speaks to you? By beginning with something you love or maybe something you haven’t done in a while like a dowel workout, your workout will feel more personal, fun, and revived.

Program with Purpose

Each week I make sure we’re balancing the body with a mixture of flexion, extension and rotation along with incorporating both standing and grounded work. You’ll also notice equal balance of weighted work, cardio and sculpt. Grouping movement together by function and purpose helps to give more context to the week. Once you start balancing things in this way, you’ll see what you have too much or too little of. Doing too much cardio or repeating the same workout everyday won’t get you very far or do you much good.

When you work from a place of balance, your weekly schedule will feel purposeful. If you don't want to think too hard, you can repeat an entire week from a previous month.  I do my best to make sure nothing goes untouched, under or over-worked in a particular week, so you know it's always a safe bet to follow a full week. 

Less is More

Quick Burn workouts really work in 30 minutes or less. With every workout, I make sure you are in the total-body zone so that you don’t create muscle imbalances. The art of programming is tricky to get right, and it’s easy to overwork or underwork parts of the body when you’re DIY’ing it. When you’re not following the weekly QB schedule, make sure you’re choosing a Cardio + Sculpt and Standing Abs workout each week. Lifting heavy will give you way more burn for the time.


Elevate what’s Pre-Existing

It’s amazing how a few small tweaks can unlock your workouts freshness and vitality. Something as simple as working with a 2 lb. heavier weight or adding ankle weight can make a huge impact.

Let it be a Work in Progress

Finally, it’s important to allow your workout and your progress to be a work in progress. You have to accept that fitness and progress takes time. It isn’t a race, and there’s no finish line, so try to relax and enjoy the process!

MANIFESTING YOUR STUDIO LB PRACTICE

Photo by undrey/iStock / Getty Images

You’ve subscribed to Studio LB, you’ve texted the hotline, you’ve checked your email and the facebook group to see what’s in store for you this week, you have your leggings and sports bra laid out and ready to go, and your alarm is set (ok… your 6 iPhone alarms spaced exactly 4 minutes apart are set). You’ve totally got this. But then something in your brain stops you from getting up and getting moving with me.

While you know that exercise will ultimately make your day feel complete, often you’ll face mental blocks that stop you from getting your sweat on, and you literally have to make room for your practice in your life for it to actually happen. Here’s a few tips for manifesting your at-home practice. Lets make it happen!

Actions must match desires

So, you really want this, right? You have to believe in you, your practice, and the results that are coming your way, but you also have to work with the universe to facilitate receiving. It won’t happen overnight, but if you’re diligent with taking action you should be all in within 30 days.  

Pick your environment

Maybe carving out a corner of your bedroom so you can literally roll out of bed onto the mat and start stretching is best for you. Or perhaps your bedroom is solely a sleeping sanctuary and you prefer the biggest screen in the living room with the coffee table pushed out of the way as your at-home studio. Whether it’s your bedroom’s natural light that motivates you, or you prefer to have a spot for your little one to safely play while you do CCS, ask yourself what type of environment will be most conducive to your performance. Once you’ve determined this, stick with it and make it your spot moving forward.

 

Set the stage

In each of my workouts, I’ll list in the notes what you need for equipment like light or heavy weights, a mat, loops, or nothing at all. Making sure you have the necessary accessories before pressing play means you won’t have to pause and run around the house searching for your gear mid-workout. I also cannot stress enough how important it is to have a full-length mirror to the right or left of your screen so that you can check your form.

No negative self-talk

Try not to speak poorly of yourself, your life, or your body. Never say, “I’m not good at this,” or “I can’t exercise at home”. These negative phrases should not exist in your world.

 

Don’t be afraid to fail

Of course, you want to master each move on your first go around, but that’s not realistic. Don’t get frustrated if you make a mistake during a cardio sequence during the breakdown. I make mistakes too! A fear of failure can hold you back from making huge physical and mental gains using my program. Keep moving, keep trying, and trust that change will happen when you’re a little outside of your comfort zone.

Ask me

Last but definitely not least, I’m here for you to answer any questions or jut to give a morale boost, and I truly want to see you succeed. Text me and the team on the Studio LB hotline 424-327-5470 with any questions or feedback!

LIVING BETTER: LINNY GIFFIN

Your overwhelming response from International Women’s Day has inspired us to look within our community and recognize some insanely talented Studio LB members here on the blog. First up, we wanted to share a recent Q & A with Linny Giffin, a Studio LB member and multidisciplinary artist living and working in Washington, D.C. Seeing her creativity and and ability to balance form and function in her space, we needed to know more about what drives Linny in her work, her home and her health.

Can you tell us about your work as a fiber artist and about The Lemon Collective?

As a fiber artist, I do a lot of work with embroidery, weaving, quilting and soft sculpture. I've translated the medium to large scale installation art, creating bespoke pieces for restaurants and homes in D.C. and beyond. Last year I created a loom on the storefront of my studio and wove flowers through it, I called in the Living Loom.  

In 2015, I co-founded The Lemon Collective with two other D.C.-based artists. It originally started as an art studio for us, but quickly morphed into much more. Now, it is more of a brand and creative community that celebrates artists across a range of mediums in a city where creativity isn't always a priority. Our brick and mortar hosts workshops and other events, providing a space for small business owners to exhibit their expertise in anything from jewelry making and flower arranging to embroidery and business development. We're building an online community that connects artists and celebrates the importance of creativity.

You live and work in a 350 square foot space in Washington, D.C. In what ways do you find this space limiting or liberating?

Of course, living and working in a 350 square foot apartment is extremely limiting. However, just by opening up the door to my fire escape, I feel a part of the city. The view is amazing and I live on the best street in D.C., there are cafes, restaurants, shops and an independent movie theater right outside my front door. Plus, the small space allowed me to design the apartment very intentionally so no square foot was left neglected. I think that makes the apartment feel liberating.

Do you practice Studio LB at home or elsewhere?

I practice at home! I just roll out my mat in the middle of my living room floor. One of the many things I love about Studio LB is it doesn't require equipment and I can do it anywhere even my tiny apartment.
