The 50's are a sandwich generation of fitness; we don't want to work out like we did 15, 10 or even 5 years ago, yet we aren't ready for the "senior" classes either. I'm revamping this blog to be a blend of health and fitness tips that I hope all of you "fiftysomethings" will find helpful. ***I am not a doctor or nutritionist.

Monday's Muscle work -- Beginner Inner Thighs
Today's muscle work video focuses on the inner thighs. It comes from blogilates and is about 10 minutes long. There is no warm up. Please do that on your own.
Make sure when you are on your side you keep your body upright. You don't want to slouch into that shoulder. If it starts to get too challenging to maintain, you can come down and cradle your head in your hand. (like in the above picture).
You'll want to do a quick inner thigh stretch afterward. Follow the pictures below:

Sunday Recipe Share -- Gluten Free, Grain Free Chocolate Coconut Cake
I made this cake for Christmas Day so that I could have a yummy treat like everyone else!
The recipe is from Civilized Caveman Cooking Creations and man is it good! This site is dedicated to sharing Paleo/Primal recipes. The "caveman's" name is George. He also has a facebook page and can be followed on Twitter and Pinterest as well.
It's moist and chocolatey and coconutty and just delicious! I will be making this many, many more times!
