Welcome to the Blog

We all know that even the most rigid exercise routine is nothing without a proper diet. It’s my goal to help my clients reach their goals and achieve their full potential, which means I have to consider the whole picture.[...]

Thanksgiving is definitely my favorite holiday. Every year I look forward to escaping the city and returning to my roots in New Jersey, where I get to spend time with my family and meet up with old friends from high[...]

Thanksgiving is only three days away! But that’s still three whole days for you to get invited to a last-minute Friendsgiving. Unfortunately for a lot of us, the office work load seems to double leading up to big holidays, so[...]

Before the age of constant snacking and absent-mindedly eating while distracted by technology, mealtime used to be a ritual. In most cultures, this is still the case. Meals are meant to be enjoyed with family and friends as a form[...]

From trick-or-treating, dressing up for a spooky night out with friends, or staying in watching a scary movie, Halloween has always involved enjoying some of life’s greatest guilty pleasures—candy and cocktails! As I’ve gotten older, the Kit-Kats and Skittles have[...]

It’s like clockwork-- with the cooler temperatures and changing leaves comes all-pumpkin-everything. I can’t open up my Instagram feed without seeing some delicious looking pumpkin recipe. I always loved going to the pumpkin patch as a kid, picking out the[...]

Well, September lasted about 2 seconds. The first two weeks of October have come and gone, which means we are well underway into the start of a new school year. Whether you headed off to college for the first time[...]

London is hands down one of my favorite cities. I grew up spending plenty of my summers across the pond staying with my great uncle who lives right outside of central London. Lots of my memories include all of their[...]

Now that it’s the first day of Fall and the weather has finally made the switch (fingers crossed that the heat waves are over and done with), the few trees we have in NYC are starting to change color, and[...]

It’s that magical time of year again, and cheer is in the air… of course I’m talking about National Guacamole Day! I am so happy that there is an entire day dedicated to celebrating one of the greatest foods nature[...]

If you feel like you’ve noticed an increase in daring outfits passing you by or flooding your Insta feed, you’re not wrong. September Fashion Week has befallen the streets of New York City, and with that comes an influx of[...]

Imagine being so in sync with your body; listening to what it needs, and being able to give it exactly that. I’m talking everything from food and workouts, to rest days and sleep, and everything in between. When you can[...]

It’s hard to believe summer is almost over… where has half of this year gone?! So many great milestones have happened in these past few months at P.volve, from new product launches to the new streaming library, and not to[...]

P.volve is centered around one of the biggest, strongest muscles in our body. I’m sure by now you could quickly guess which one I’m referring to… If not, any one of our streaming videos will make it quite obvious! The[...]

The Age of Meal Prepping is well underway, and Instagrams of acai bowls and French bulldogs are being taken over by photos of perfectly prepared, evenly divided, and properly stored meals all laid out—dare I say, on an OCD level--[...]

I’ve been getting a lot of questions lately surrounding some major health trends, and decided they merited their own blog post. While I am by no means an expert on these topics, I have experimented with them myself and figured I’d[...]

Let’s start off by saying that the choice to eat before or after your workout is different for everyone. If you like to workout or stream in the early morning, I don’t find it absolutely necessary to eat first unless[...]

For many, it takes weeks or even months to get comfortable in a fitness routine, and then when suddenly the prospect of travel comes about, they psych themselves out. How the heck am I going to keep up my routine[...]

Even though the solstice happened a few weeks ago, the Fourth of July is arguably the true marker of the beginning of summer in our social calendars. Whether you’re keeping it local this Independence Day or opting for a quick[...]

Growing up in a farm town in South Jersey, most of my friends lived on farms. This enabled us to consistently eat the freshest produce all year round. Eating seasonally has numerous benefits. By consuming the fruits and vegetables that[...]

One of my favorite foods to eat and cook with is ginger. Not only do I love the taste, but the health benefits can’t be challenged. Ginger as an anti-inflammatory, helps with digestion & absorption, cures nausea, boosts immune systems[...]

How does the old saying go? “Look who woke up on the wrong side of the bed!” Growing up I struggled with getting up and finding my energy in the morning. It was tough for me and as I learned[...]

The holidays are a time to spend with family, enjoy some downtime and to …eat! And I don’t believe in watching what I eat when it comes to holiday gatherings. I’m all about creating boundaries that fit within a normal[...]

I designed my nutritional & fitness programs to build a solid functioning foundation so that when it is holiday time, we have a celebratory occasion, or simply go on vacation and want to enjoy ourselves – it is OK and[...]

  One of the biggest problems I hear about over and over again is bloating. Why am I bloated, and how do I get rid of it? This problem is common amongst not only women, but men too of all[...]

Working out is just one part of your fitness evolution – healthy bodies are also made in the kitchen! Nutrition is a key component to achieving the body you want, so I’m creating meal plans for my clients to provide[...]
