Swim for twenty minutes. Or walk a mile to get coffee. Take the stairs up to my 13th floor apartment. Ten min beginner barre in my living room. The gym turns me gray, inside and out and I am over it.

I walked the mile all of high school which says everything it needs to about my athletic abilities, but discovering in my 20s that I don’t need to punish myself at the gym with workouts that I don’t enjoy (or are straight up too hard for my body) has been a revolution for me. I found “my“ routine that I do pretty much every time I’m at the gym and it allows me to read a book at the same time, study lines, etc. “Do what you like and what feels good” is not only a mostly good life mantra, but it perfectly applies when it comes to how you decide to move your body 😘

*unless it‘s something cool and interesting, like skiing or scuba diving. every time I start going to the gym I become more uptight and less funny. plus, my taste in music goes to shit because I start listening to high-bpm edm while on the stairmaster. not to mention, we could use more chubby guys with a 70’s-character-actor type of look. spend those 5 hours a week doing something more interesting. a weekly hike is enough exercise.

I work out unclothed in my room. It’s less restrictive than working out in athletic wear, and of course it means I cut down on laundry days. On YouTube I bounce between Caroline Girvan and Madfit. Outside of YouTube my friend Sadie lets me use her Sculpt Society account (I almost called it Pilate Pals). Working out is so addictive–mostly I love to feel strong. I had a phase of using fitness metaphors often and sincerely, but I think that’s behind us now.

I sometimes worry that I wouldn’t be such a feminist if I had bigger tits.

My toaster is having a bad week so she doesn’t have the energy to hold the lever down anymore. Which means I have to stand there pressing it down for three minutes making sure my toast doesn’t burn. I used to take that time for granted, now it’s being robbed of me by my broken toaster. Trying to give her grace.
