Yaaaaas!

RUNNING THE TOWNSHIPS! Our junior editor @thamarh joined the FAMSA: Families SA Western Cape Family 5km Fun Run this weekend. If you’re looking for a tour through Khayelitsha and to support a good cause at the same time this is a great opportunity.

Oh my goodness! Made the perfect raining weather post-yoga breakfast today. Chocolate turmeric quinoa with almond milk and roast banana 🍌 Heaven! #quinoa #vegan #banana #breakfast #veganbreakfast #cocoa #fitlifebreakfast #foodisfuel #eatclean #veganrecipes #plantbased

Game face at Empire Fit Club Bali workout this morning! So awesome working out outdoors and meeting some amazing people. Fitness is never one dimensional - get out there and use your body, mind and stretch yourself to constantly try new things. #fitness #bali

Wake up at sunrise 🌅 Surf 🏄‍♀️ a black sand beach. Eat a smoothie bowl 🍉 Chill at the pool at our villa 🏊‍♀️ Sunset drinks 🍹 How does that sound for a Wednesday? Come join us in Bali in March and we’ll treat you to fitness, healthy food and fun! #fitnessbali #thefitlife

Haha did someone say weekend? I’m ready! Bring it! #bali #fitness #beachfitness

Best way to start the day! Run, pull-ups, say “Pagi” to the locals, do some window shopping, squats, swim, meditate... #fitnessbali #baliindonesia #fitnessretreat #thefitlifebali

REMINDER! Our first Warm-Up Wednesday event happens today. Try and be there before 6pm for the briefing. Bring your friends and come run 5km or 8km with some vibe. #Warmupwednesday @AmyFoundationSA @Atlantic_AC @OUTsurance @KFMza @TopEventsSA

Did you know that if you lift weights you improve your cognitive function and keep your mind younger for longer? How’s that for motivation to lift? Happy Monday! @HarbingerFit #crossfit #fitness

Throwback to running the Ultimate Human Race @ComradesRace twice 🙈 As much as it was an experience that was beyond epic it was brutal. Putting your body through 87km isn’t normal. It’s a mental feat for sure! #comrades #TBT

Dreaming? Make it a reality! Join me this November for magical sunsets and more in Bali... #uluwatutemple #bali #fitholiday

WOD 1 donsies! Now to put the bikini on 👀 for a swim workout in 14 degrees. @crossfitdistrict6 @lushwill #crossfit #fitness #deepsouththrowdown #notshortatall #workout

FLASHBACK FRIDAY... to chasing #waterfalls in #Bali. A dream is a dream until you immerse yourself in your vision in reality - then they become truth. What steps can you take today to bring you closer to your true purpose? #FridayMotivation

Fried banana? No probs just cook it on the volcano 🌋😂 Leave all your worries the dishes behind and come join me in Bali in November for 8 days of fun, great food, adventure and fitness! DM me for details. #eatpraylovebali #bali #thefitlife #mountbatur #fitness #adventure

I decided to sign up for a week of @F45Training in Camps Bay. The workouts are challenging but also manageable and different every day. I loved ‘Romans’ because it was more weight intensive but there are more cardio-based sessions too. Try it!

How much are we really eating? @insidePN got me thinking about portion sizes, nutrient deficiencies and being mindful of our own needs and limiting factors. Starting with adjustments to my own eating.

The biggest change I made last year was to stop skipping meals and eat! I had to let go of guilt associated with eating which I think also goes back to your own mindset of how you view yourself. I started to track my calories and realized I was way undereating. How about you?
