Eight years ago, I set out to find as much information as I could about diastasis recti. How to recognize it, how to heal, and how to get stronger from the inside out. At the time, I owned a Baby Boot Camp franchise, and many of the moms were struggling with postpartum core weakness. I myself had just thrown my back out simply by taking my son out of his… The post MUTU System Then and Now appeared first on Inspired RD.| Inspired RD

Read on to find out how we hacked our non-Peloton bike to get a Peloton experience for thousands of dollars less. Why we wanted to buy a bike in the first place My husband Jeff… The post How to get the Peloton Experience with a non-Peloton bike appeared first on Inspired RD.| Inspired RD
Back in March when the professional baseball season was suspended and my husband (who is a professional baseball coach) was sent home from Spring Training to ride out this “Coronavirus thing,” we anticipated 2–3 weeks of interrupted life. As we hung out in Texas, somewhat enjoying our little quarantine vacation, I thought for sure we would be sending him back to Arizona in no time. Then 2020 became, well, 2020.… The post Self-Care for Hard Times appeared first on Inspired RD.| Inspired RD
Last summer, Leila and I did an at-home workout program together. We had a blast encouraging each other and giggling over our lack of flexibility. At the end of the program, we were stronger and bonded together in a new way. When COVID shut the world down this spring, and we were literally stuck at home, I started doing Peloton workouts every day. (We don’t have a Peloton bike, we… The post Shifting my Perspective on Fitness appeared first on Inspired RD.| Inspired RD
In the middle of our stay-at-home orders, my next door neighbor and friend shattered her collarbone while out for a jog. The last thing I wanted her to have to worry about after surgery was what to eat for dinner. So I pulled a chair into the kitchen, climbed on top, and dug out my old recipe notebook. Welcome to the world before Pinterest…and the golden age of Clipart. I… The post Beef Picadillo Recipe appeared first on Inspired RD.| Inspired RD
I want to tell you about why we love Revolution Math and how you can get 30 days of math tutoring for only $5. When I heard about Revolution Math, it was in the middle of our Covid homeschooling adventure.

Since sharing my raw post about what it feels like to live with celiac disease, I’ve gotten hundreds of comments, emails, and DMs from the celiac community thanking me for putting some of what they feel into words. This year I wanted to share more of a community perspective, so I posted the following statement on my Facebook page and asked people to comment. “What I wish people knew about… The post What I wish people knew about celiac disease is ____. appeared first on Inspired RD.| Inspired RD
Have you ever tried to watch Saved by the Bell in the correct order? While you can get all of the episodes on Hulu, it’s pretty obvious once you start watching that time is jumping around and chronologically it doesn’t make much sense. This was never something that bothered me as a kid because I watched whatever episode happened to be on after school, but these days, when you sit… The post How to Watch Saved by the Bell in the Correct Order appeared first on Inspired RD.| Inspired RD
Dear Younger Me, Moisturize your neck. Relax. 99% of what you’re worrying about will never happen. Wear sunscreen. Talk less, listen more. 5 weeks of unlimited tanning for $35 is NOT a good deal. Jesus loves you. Revel in the energy you have to be able to run 5 miles at cross country and go straight to a 2 hour soccer practice. Choose friends over boyfriends. Bangs are never a… The post Dear Younger Me appeared first on Inspired RD.| Inspired RD
"Let me know if I can do anything for you."How many times have you said that and meant it? How many times has that person come back to you in their time of need and told you exactly what you can do and how to help?| Inspired RD
