When the point of your “side hustle” is to eat as much food as possible so you can write about it, fitness becomes incredibly important. Unfortunately, since moving to Petworth and letting go of my beloved gym membership my workouts have become few and far between. I always try to walk as much as possible, but unless I’m in a class setting it’s hard to push myself to do much more. To combat that, I’ve been trying to incorporate exercise into my social gatherings with friends to amp up the motivation and fun levels. When I heard about Toned Up Tuesdays at CityCenter, I knew I had to give it a shot.

Toned Up Tuesdays features free a free yoga class from CorePower Yoga at The Park at CityCenter. My friend Lauren joined me last Tuesday for a healthy lady date, and it couldn’t have been more lovely.

Of course, we had to fuel up after getting our sweat on so we headed to nearby Fruitive for a healthy dinner.




We ended the night with a walk around the lovely CityCenter, before heading home for an early bedtime. It was the quintessential healthy and happy night, and one I can’t wait to repeat very soon.
