Morgan is a wife, mother of two young boys and a self-proclaimed fitness junkie. She claims it's the endorphin-induced "high" that keeps her addicted and coming back for more, as well as the results. She has a dance background - both competing and teaching - and says that is where her love of fitness truly started. Having first-hand knowledge of the amazing things the body is capable of has been an incredible motivator for her throughout her life. Her favorite fitness activities include dancing, yoga, spinning, running, strength-training and cardio/aerobic classes, to name a few. She loves participating in local 5K/10K races and hopes to one day run a 1/2 or even a full marathon. Some of her other interests are spending days at the beach with her family, playing with her boys, interior design & decor, graphic design, drawing & painting, going out on the town with friends and blogging - she has a home decor blog, a fitness blog and a family/mommy blog. She aspires to attain her Personal Training certificate someday. She believes fitness is a lifelong journey; not a destination.

As a mother of two, I know how hard it can be to start looking and feeling like yourself again after having a baby. I have been through the 9 months up and then bringing it back down twice now… Read more »
Confession: I really don’t like it when people stare at me. It makes me nervous. I always think there must be something on my face, or something is wrong with my outfit, or just something NEGATIVE. So when Skinny Mom… Read more »
When two people in a relationship have entirely different views on fitness, it can cause stress in the relationship. One may complain that the other spends too much time at the gym, while the other might resent that they are… Read more »
One of the single most effective tools that contributes to my personal success is keeping a workout log or journal. When I am keeping up with one, I find that I am more consistent, more focused and my workouts are… Read more »
