A day shooting a summer workout program with fitness influencer Lindsay. They clear furniture, pick outfits for thumbnails, film a sweaty core-cardio-mobility session, then swap outfits and repeat. Lindsay improvises on the fly, making for long but satisfying production days.

Come behind the scenes with me to shoot our summer workout program. We start by moving all the furniture out of Lindsay's living room, and then Lindsay and I head upstairs to pick out what we want to wear that day. This is truly, like, an art and a science. We want something that will look good in a thumbnail that will help us tell the workouts apart in the program and also that feels comfortable to film in. Then we do our hair. I need Lindsay to teach me how to do this slicked back ponytail. We get all mic'd up and go over what we're filming that day. We have this big screen with the workout outlined on it, but I will say Lindsay just goes rogue sometimes. Times, too. And then we get into it. Today we were filming a core cardio mobility, and it was sweaty. Literal sweat equity here. How'd that go? Workout one. I loved it. Then we change outfits and do the whole thing again. These days are long, but they are so, so fun. It's done. We did it. It feels so good to be on the other side of filming a program. I'm proud of us.
