Jamie King : Rock Your Body DVD

I bought this Jamie King : Rock Your Body DVD late last year and I’ve completely forgot to write a review so here it is. If you’re not a dancer, this workout will be VERY hard for you. I consider myself a good dancer but even I had a difficult time following the routine. […]

Fruit Salad of Destiny

I don’t particularly like fruit. In fact I can say that most fruit frightens me; especially berries. Let’s not get into it. My son on the other hand LOVES fruit so I have had to come up with different ways to present it to him. I made a minty fruit salad the other day that […]

If You Want My Body and You Think I’m Sweaty

Shoot me, shoot me now. I would do it myself but I’m too tired and my arms hurt. Kidding…mostly. This has been a rough week for sticking to the challenge. I didn’t even finish my 20 minutes yesterday. Like seriously, it’s ONLY 20 MINUTES. Exactly how lame does that make me? I often feel like […]

Cellulite Solutions?

Yeah, sue me, coz I’m trying Alli. I’ve never been good with diet pills except with TrimSpa. I like that stuff, kidding you not. It works for me. I’ve tried Metabolife and Hydroxycut in my early years and it’s just did not for […]

Stroller Strides

So how’s everyone (all what, 4 of us) doing with the 30 Day Shred Challenge? I have soooo not wanted to do it this week as I have been having my lady time, you know my lady time. They say that exercise is good for you during these times but I just couldn’t summon the […]

Cool Summer Workout Duds

Oh yes, I’m shopping for more workout clothes. It’s not as so much an obsession as a way of building confidence (at least that’s what I tell myself), and wearing great pieces just makes me want to get to the gym and show stuff off. If you’re looking for some slightly eclectic pieces, here are […]

My Great Inspirations

There are ways to make yourself feel better when you are feeling like you’re in a slump. I hate those times when you’ve been working out for a while and you start to feel less motivated. Either you’ve reached a plateau or you’re just sick of the gym: this time is supremely frustrating because you’re […]

30 Day Shred Challenge

  
On the recommendation of my friend, I tried Jillian Michaels’ (of The Biggest Loser) 30 Day Shred workout. It has three levels that go according to difficulty. Not including the warm up part, the whole thing lasts 20 minutes and is structured in 3-2-1. Three minutes of strength, two minutes of cardio and one minute […]
