pelvic floor. However, if you were jogging or spinning prior to your pregnancy, then it’s…

Q & A's About Super Fit Mama

New moms have so much going on...what is your advice on getting back into an exercise routine post-baby?

Step one: Write an action plan! After all, without a plan on paper there is no plan. Pick your days and "just do it." Saying you're going to exercise is not enough-especially now that you're a mom with an unpredictable schedule.

Step two: Research some local Mommy and Me classes or buy some good… Continue

Simple Easy Snacking Tips

• Aim to eat a piece of fruit or a vegetable at each meal. Give yourself bonus points for eating both!

Tips for a Fake Tan

A fake tan is not only safer than the sun’s dangerous UV rays (which lead to deadly skin cancer, so don’t even think about laying out in the sun or on a tanning bed), but it gives you great color in no time flat and your legs will look hot. Plus, it hides cellulite pretty well. I swear I felt like I won the lottery the day I discovered that.

You can either give yourself a faux glow at home (see tips below) or go to a spa or salon that has a spray… Continue

Burn Calories at Your Desk!!

1. Research has indicated more than 15-20 minutes sitting down at desk can be harmful to the back. Try standing and performing 20 squats or lunges to release tension in the lower back and work the legs at the same time every 20 minutes throughout the day.

2. Alternate between 10-20 abdominal and butt contractions. Start by exhaling deeply, drawing the abs to the spine then tighten the buttocks for a count of three and relax. Not only will… Continue

Write it Down to Drop The Pounds!

Journaling your way through fitness is highly beneficial. Writing down your goals, successes, and even tribulations is extremely crucial to your fitness development.

Journaling also helps to show you how far you have come in your… Continue
