Man, you guys know how to much a girl feel loved! ![]()
Thank you SO much for the feedback on the new blog. I absolutely love it, so I’m so glad you all do too. And sorry to those of you who were a bit confused at first, hehe! ![]()
Before we get into today’s Move it Monday workout, I thought I’d explain a little bit about what went into my thought process for the design of the new blog.
Rita and I used a couple different blogs as motivations, one for design aesthetics, and one for a color scheme.
As far as design goes, I’ve always loved Lauren Conrad’s website – specifically the Dine page:
I was happy to hear that Rita agreed, and then did a great job of using it as inspiration for the design of Your Trainer Paige.
And as for colors, ever since I got married back in 2008, I’ve loved the blue and green color scheme (but NOT the cluttered desgin) of Theknot.com
- Which is where the inspiration for the blue and green color scheme came from for Your Trainer Paige.
I think Rita did a great job of using these websites as inspiration to create her own, unique design.

I also made a video demonstrating the exercises. And if you watch closely, you’ll spot a performance by Niko, too ![]()
Have a great rest of your day!
What’s one of your favorite visually-appealing websites or blogs?










I love clean looking blogs. Usually I think of lots of examples but am drawing a blank! Love Lauren Conrad’s though. I always think simple is better!
Great design! I agree on the cleaner look, and I love the pic you chose!
I love how Niko is very curious…..and your kitty is all “meh” on the couch.
Great new blog!
LOL! Clarabelle could give a you-know-what
those ham curls are one of my favorite moves!!! (love the new design!)
Mine too! I love how they target those hammies and are dynamic at the same time.
Love the Blue/Green and the header. Really pretty blog!
Great video – looks like a wonderful workout, even for when watching movies!
I love your living room work out. Niko’s too, but I can’t hop up and down on a couch like that:-)
There’s no hopping up and down on couches going on!! lol
