Regular Grrrl Mandate
First: I am not a fitness guru, a medical doctor or a nutritionist. I have gathered all of my knowledge in the past 5 months with the help of friends, Netflix, and trial and error. Regular Grrrl isn't here to tell you how to work out, how to eat, or how to live - that's not what is behind the concept of regularity. I'm just sharing my personal insights on balancing fitness and nutrition, three jobs, pets, family, friends, and self-care. You don't have to do what I do (and you probably shouldn't - I eat far too many Cadbury Cream Eggs...), but you will (I hope!) find this a space of encouragement and motivation.
Second: Although I follow Jamie Eason's Live Fit training program, I am not in any way affiliated with BodyBuilding.com. I value their encyclopedia of video training, recipes, and supplements, but I don't work for or with them. I take the directions provided there and often tweak it to reflect my personal lifestyle. And that's half the battle when you're a regular grrrl with a life outside the gym.
Third: I am going to do my best to keep this space a positive, encouraging space where all bodies are accepted and celebrated. That being said, this is a "fitspo" blog - so if fitness and nutrition isn't your cup of tea - feel free to skip over Regular Grrrl. I won't be offended. I will, however, moderate all comments and will not tolerate body snarking, thinspo, or pro-ana advertisements. My personal fitness ethic is encouragement and balance, not extremes, and I hope to share that with you!

anything interesting you'd recommend on Netflix about health/fitness I should watch?

Yes! Definitely look into the two sister documentaries "Hungry for Change" and "Food Matters" on Netflix. They're incredibly informative, and backed up by a lot of research. I learned SO MUCH about what is in the food that I eat from both of them - and even though I didn't "buy in" to their lifestyle suggestions, I have definitely borrowed from them to supplement my own healthy lifestyle.
DeleteBut, be warned, if you're anything like me - it's kind of scary to hear all of the ways we're limiting ourselves through what we eat. :)
