Week in Review 12-1-17

I hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving and found some great deals over the shopping weekend that followed. Now it’s time to get back on track by reinstating some healthy habits to keep us check over the next few weeks. With that in mind, here’s some things I’ve come across this week that I think you’ll enjoy!

My Favorite Articles

I love this article from Krista Scott-Dixon. She does a great job of explaining how the “weekend” or “cheat day” mindset can really delay or completely derail your fitness goals.

I’m a firm believer in the power of morning workouts. Stack.com shares 5 tipson becoming a morning workout person.

I’m not vegan, but I have to admit that Katie Jensen whips up some tasty vegan recipes. Check out her white bean dip with rosemary and sun-dried tomatoes.

Not every workout should be a soul-crushing endeavor:
