Flexibility
I have never ever been flexible. Even as a child I was always jealous of my "bendy" friends. I am in my mid 30s and always been athletic and into fitness but i always skip the stretches or do the bare min. I was wondering if there are any good dvd's or programs out there that focus on flexibility. Ones that may have worked…

Yoga DVD and Frequency
Happy Friday! Ok I met my goal weight and have been strength training mostly with some cardio to try and maintain and tone. I noticed last night while *mumbling* that I have become even more unflexible than I started. I honestly didn't think that was even possible. So I was thinking of getting a nice yoga dvd that would…

Does when I do cardio REALLY matter?
I think I know the answer is that it's best to do it right after strength training but... Currently I get up a 6am to do strength training, abs and butt. Next week I want to start adding 30 mins of cardio but the thought of getting up any earlier than 6 makes me unmotivated. Does doing cardio directly after strength…

Best Ab Routine?
Happy Friday! I want to add a good ab routine to my already 45 min workout. I don't want it to take too long. I was looking into JM 6 pack in 6 weeks but I can't imagine getting up an entire 30 minutes earlier! Have any of you had great results with a less time consuming ab program?

Fat Free Feta and Spinach Greek Turkey Burger :o)
Just created a master piece! Bought extra lean ground turkey split it in 5 portions but I only used 2 portions to try this out - not the entire pound of ground beef. In a bowl I mixed about 2 table spoons fresh chopped onion, 1/2 a cup of freshly chopped spinach, 1 freshly chopped garlic clove, 1 egg, 1 tablespoon oat…

Ladies I need Hair Advice - Off topic
Ok a little background - I have spent the past 4 years growing my hair out. It's semi-wavy, very thick, coarse and down my back mid way. A few months back I decided to go to an actual hair dresser to bleach my hair from dark auburn to blonde. Since then I have been doing my roots at home because A) I have always done my…

I confess I cheated
I knew this would happen and I feel the only way I will learn is by tattling on myself. I refuse to miss the beer festival this weekend because that sounds boring and I do LOVE beer. So I planned on this week and next week working extra hard during my workouts and dieting to help prepare for a day of beer. Well today…

"Healthy" Restaurants Tear Up My Stomach
There are 4 "healthy" style restaurants in my neighborhood that really hurt my stomach every time I go but I LOVE the food! Does this happen to anyone else or just me? Right now I have pin pointed Pei Wei, Zoe's, Fit Foods and Ziggy's. I wonder if there is a specific oil they cook with that doesn't agree with me. Sometimes…

Weight loss and Menopause??
I started a lifestyle change with a great friend at work but I have whizzed right by her and am almost to my goal weight. Of course I still have long way to go in the fitness category to tone and sculpt but she has gotten stuck. I watched her go from excitement and such a happy glow on her face to looking more and more…
