This fine athlete is Andrea. She started StrongHealthyWoman BootCamp when her twin girls were entering 4th grade. In September, they began their first day of 11th grade! In her own words: “Thanks to this program I have never felt #younger, #stronger and in better shape in my entire life. I work an insanely long day…
HOTEL ROOM + MINI BOTTLE SWEAT // Here’s a quick hotel room training session with vodka “mini” bottles. The W Hotel in South Beach considers those “mini” bottles 🙂 Just a side note, water bottles work equally as well! A video posted by Dr. Laura Miranda DPT, CSCS (@lauramirandafit) on Nov 13, 2015 at…

I mean, who doesn’t love a good broad jump!! Am I right? (Dead serious.) TRAINING TIP: stick the landing of the squat and the plank. You must EARN THE…
BUNGEE CORD AGILITY & PUSHUPS I don’t use any equipment when I train myself or my clients outdoors; I just don’t think its necessary. But today I broke out the bungee cord for a little something extra. These are all classic agility and push-up exercises, just with added planes of motion and resistance from the…
How to stop being a “Fitness Douche Bag” We have to get smarter in the way we program exercises for clients and ourselves. I am sick of seeing people flailing around doing 100s of reps with really poor quality (think burpees), or just adding MORE and more weight to the bar….all in the name of…
Instagram annoys me. I have been a student of the human movement for the last 17 years with 3 different degrees in kinesiology, biomechanics and Physical Therapy. Yet these so called “social media fitness stars” have diluted, perverted and kind of ruined it for the regular person who is looking to get in shape. Having…
