Kristin McGee
Peloton yoga instructor [2] and mom to three sons
One week of workouts
The Details
As a fitness instructor, it's no surprise that Kristin's week of workouts includes a lot of teaching and sometimes multiple workouts in a day! She said she sticks to a regular weekly routine of three to four yoga practices, two to four Pilates routines, two lower-body strength workouts, and one or two upper-body strength workouts. She also snuck in some extra cardio this week. "I teach for a living and I need to be on top of my game, but I've also realized that it's become such a lifestyle for me," Kristin told POPSUGAR. "I truly love to move my body, push myself, and learn more about myself."

Monday, Jan. 18
Taught two 20-minute yoga flows
Lower-body strength and Peloton cycling class
"I felt really good because I love starting my day with yoga. I go to PT to counter all of the stretching I do. My physical therapist laughs, saying I'm the only person they tell to tighten up their hamstrings. Since I do so much yoga, I can get hypermobile, so it's great to cross train. I also love doing strength work with my colleagues."
Tuesday, Jan. 19
Taught a 45-minute yoga class
45-minute Intermediate Peloton Pilates Class
"At-home Pilates is such a good complement to yoga, and it really helps me strengthen my core, which I need after having three kids!"
Wednesday, Jan. 20
20-minute cycling with Cody Rigsby on Peloton Bike
30-minute Peloton Strength for Runners
"I felt good after this workout. I didn't push too hard during this ride, but the bike energized me — Cody is so fun! I loved the Strength for Runners class I took with Becs after because I'm really working on getting stronger in my running. I felt good and really happy that day. I was a bit hungrier than usual . . . which was filled by my nightly pistachio habit!"
Thursday, Jan. 21
30-minute cycling with Ally Love on Peloton Bike
Upper-body strength class with Andy Speer
10 minutes of core + 20 minutes of yoga and handstand practice
"I felt super strong this day and full of energy. We do a lot of pressing in yoga and not a lot of pulling, so it's really good to get in some rows, curls, etc., and important to do weights at my age. I was also excited to be getting closer and closer to doing a puppy press in a handstand. Having a goal to work towards makes showing up that much easier!"
Friday, Jan. 22
20-minute Peloton run with Selena Samuela on Peloton Tread+
"When I run, I definitely feel tighter and like to get some stretching in. I also work in some core, a 30-minute Pilates class, and a 30-minute yoga class at least three to four times a week."
Saturday, Jan. 23
45-minute endurance run with Becs Gentry on Peloton Tread+
"I hit a PR (personal record), and I couldn't believe it! I felt really happy and a little wiped out at first, but then I had a lot of energy all day and was able to focus and chill out with my boys for the rest of the day, doing art projects, puzzles, and less active things."
Sunday, Jan. 24
Taught a 30-minute yoga flow
45-minute yoga focus flow on inversions with Anna Greenberg
"Handstands are something you have to practice regularly, and I've been really dedicated to mastering this pose."
