About Polar Coastal

Polar Coastal is a blog by two different women who are polar opposites and live on opposite coasts (see what we did there?!). It’s a chance for us to express ourselves and what’s important to us outside of our families, though they might get a mention or two. From Beachbody and CrossFit to healthy eating and dating with kids, this blog offers real accounts from two women over 40 who are finally hitting their stride.

  • You know it’s real when you’ve had business cards printed. Everyone, I’m excited to announce my new business venture @shiftclickcreative that I’ve been working on for the past few months! I’m embarking on a new career as a creative virtual assistant and website designer for small businesses and creative entrepreneurs. I’m so excited - I just flipped the switch on my website the other day so I invite you to take a look! And, if you know anyone in the market for my services, please pass on my information.

  • Loving the new @crossfitflushing Thrive 45 class. Been taking it after the normal WOD and love the focus on form and fundamentals. Worked up to 120 for this complex (clean deadlift and 2 HPC). Also shown 105 and 115. Trying to focus on shrug and drop so I get under the bar with butt back. Not always successful but trying! . . . #crossfit #crossfitwomen #crossfitgirls #crossfitmasters #womenwholift #strongwomen #fitover40 #fitness #fitspo

  • Some days you PR. Some days you don’t. Didn’t realize how close I was. Second attempt was better timing but couldn’t finish the press. Happy my knees didn’t go forward! Progress. Next time for sure. 📸 @thegerm303 . . . #crossfit #crossfitgirls #crossfitmasters #crossfitwomen #womenwholift #strongerthanyesterday #strongwomen #fitspo #fitover40
