New Exercises Alert! | Week 4 💪🏾🔥
Highlights from our Inclusive HIIT Class in Malden — our ⭐️ rockstars are learning the staggered‑stance hip hinge (glutes + hamstrings) along with other fun new moves that build strength and power.
😅 Proud of everyone for pushing their limits and, even more importantly, for supporting each other every step of the way. This is what community fitness looks like.

Community, Connection, and a Little Valentine Joy ❤️
Today the all‑volunteer ☀️Sunshine Committee at the Malden Senior Center brought the Valentine’s Day spirit early, inviting members to write uplifting messages on heart‑shaped notes.
💯Moments like these remind us that senior centers aren’t just places to gather… they’re places to belong.

❄️⚠️ We’re in a cold emergency in Malden, #Boston, and across the region, with dangerous freezing temps—especially for our #unhoused neighbors.
I’m grateful tonight to be alongside other dedicated #volunteers at the Malden Warming Center) We’re staying open throughout the weekend to ensure our guests have safe shelter, warmth, and care.
📣Support your local #nonprofits. Their work is only possible with #community partners, donors, and volunteers. Every bit counts.
📣 Winter Walk Update. End #Homelessness
❄️👟The Winter Walk has been postponed to March 22 due to the recent snowstorm and extreme cold. In my two‑minute video, I share an excerpt from the organizers that reminds us how dangerous winter weather is for our unhoused neighbors—conditions they can’t simply step away from.
🎯With nonprofits facing major funding cuts, this work matters now more than ever. I’ll still be there on March 22, and the need continues.

🇺🇦🇺🇸 Kherson CAT 7 Tourniquets: An Update
🗣️I just received confirmation from my Ukrainian friend from Spravzhni #Ukraine, a grassroots group doing vital humanitarian work, that the lifesaving tourniquets I mailed in Nov. 2025 from the U.S. for the heroes on the frontline in #Kherson have reached the defenders.
🎯Whether it’s donating, raising awareness, or simply sending a message of encouragement, every bit of support matters.

🇺🇸Since 2023, I’ve served as a volunteer poll worker in both local and national elections. This upcoming Special Election in March will be my 6th time serving.
Here’s what I’ve learned:
▪️ Poll workers are the soul of our democracy. Whether it’s a town vote or a presidential race, the process is the same.
▪️ There’s a nationwide shortage. We need neighbors helping neighbors to keep polling places open.
▪️ Volunteerism is #patriotism.
🇺🇸🇩🇴As a first‑gen #Dominican #American, I’m grateful for the
3/3
opportunities this country gave my family. I honor those who fought for our right to vote by showing up to protect the process today.

For Reasons, I’m trying to compile a list of phrases / terms of art that are used in Greater Boston, but not really in the rest of the US. (Not words like rotary/jimmies/tonic; phrases that are uniquely local that describe concepts.)
So far I have:
- Getting Storrowed
- Allston Christmas
- French Toast Alert
- Wicked pissah (maybe…)
Stability Ball Hip Thrusts: 2 Must-Try Variations 🔥
😅Watch my online rockstar client demonstrate how we use a stability ball (unstable) to complement traditional bench work (stable).
✅ Bilateral – The foundation: glute strength, core stability, and control
✅ Unilateral – The progression: balance, internal obliques, and ankle stability
Every effort counts.⭐️

🧣This morning, as I made my way through the snow to teach SPARTA Strength, I spotted Mary—98 years young—across the street.❄️
I offered to be her personal valet, helping her navigate the snow and ice to the Malden Senior Center. She wasted no time—hopped right into class and brightened the room.😅
She’s a true inspiration. 💪🏾
