Who are your favorite Peloton instructors for both cycling and then the strength training/running classes?
Heather: I don’t have the Peloton (yet! It comes in July!) but I have used one before at my gym and love Cody’s classes so much! He is such a ray of light, positivity and HUMOR.. literally laugh the whole time. But I know Alix has tried so many other teachers and I can’t wait to try her recs! As for running, Olivia is my girl and Jess Sims or Rebecca Kennedy are my go-to for cardio/strength training! Would love to hear your recommendations in the comments though!
Alix: I aim for 3-4 cycle classes a week and usually pick instructors based on my mood. If I want mellow energy, but still a butt kicking I go with Emma Lovewell…her music is so good! If I’m in a mood or need an energy pick-me-up it’s 100% Cody! If I want a hardcore endurance ride it’s Matt Wilpers. Lately, I’ve really been loving Alex’s rides…he is so fun and motivating and will absolutely kick your butt and yell at you while he’s doing it. I can’t run right now, so can’t speak to the running classes, but also like Jess Sims and Rebecca Kennedy for strength.
I remember you posting a long time ago about your initial necklace. I’ve been trying to find one but the letters are all so big and I remember yours being more delicate. Can you link it?
Most of my girlfriends and I have this necklace with our kid’s initials on them and even if you’re not done having children, you can send the necklace in and get initials added like I did when I had Parker. This necklace would even be cute with your own initials or last name initial on it!
Can you link some favorite bathing suits under $50 for summer?
While you’re at it, I need some cover up dresses that are easy to throw on after a day in the sun.. something lightweight and breezy please!
H&M, Target, and Amazon are my go-to spots for swing dresses to throw on after a day in the sun. Here are ones I love: ONE | TWO | THREE | FOUR
How do you keep your kids entertained on long car rides or a boat/ferry ride?
For long car rides, we have TV’s in the car for them to watch movies but iPads/tablets would work too! We love the Kidloland app for kids.. educational and entertaining and doesn’t require Wifi. At the end of the day, it’s all about snacks, treats, new toys or apps on their iPads that keep them happy until they eventually fall asleep!
I need new Summer hats.. love some straw visor recs, specifically!
Some current favorites that won’t break the bank: one | two | three
Any cute finds for family coordinated Fourth of July outfits?!
I never like to be TOO matchy matchy but coordinated I am down with! I just bought this sweatshirt in white and the navy/white stripe to wear on the 4th with jean shorts and my boys have some cute tees from Target! For baby: my boys rotated this romper as little ones! My husband is usually in a solid or stripe button down and shorts with loafers. This tee is great though if you want something more patriotic!
What are your favorite hair products?
Not sure what specific types of products you’re looking for and neither of us use a ton of hair products. We like this shampoo and this condition and recently started using this ACV hair rinse and LOVE. Use this moisturizer and shine lotion before a blow dry. Love this dry shampoo and this blow dryer!
