A new work out DVD: Personal training with Jackie Warner

Apparently Jackie Warner is a celebrity fitness trainer.

I’ve never heard of her.

Chances are she has never heard of me ;D

So we are even.

Anyway.

I was at Walmart doing my grocery shopping and decided to give another new workout DVD a try.

Motivation to play with the kids...

Do you need motivation to play with your kids?

I’ve got some for you…

Playing with your kids is good exercise!

Hop scotch = jumping

Playing on the playground = running, jumping, squatting, skipping, climbing

Playing hide and seek = yoga poses (keeping still in tight places for more [...]

Laundry anyone

There is something to be said about doing the laundry.

It does keep you active.

It may take up all of your time.

It may take forever to get it all done.

You will actually forever be doing it.

Because you never really finish.

But it does keep [...]

How to get your kids to love exercise

In this day and age of obesity rates, it seems that less and less people are interested in exercising. It takes too much time, right? Or whatever other excuse you may find. Don’t worry, I’m not judging anyone.

Here is the question though:

If you don’t like to exercise, or you just [...]

Then I am out playing and I happen [...]

Jillian Michaels 30 day shred: review

“If you’re looking for a modified jumping jack look else where. I’ve got 400 pound people doing jumping jacks and you can do them too.”

That is my favorite line on the Jillian Michaels workout, lol!

Jillian Michaels 30 day shred is TOUGH!

I had a really fun time doing this workout. Its fast paced, only 20 minutes, well actually [...]

Hostess Ding Dongs

The other day I bought some Hostess Ding Dongs.

They are good.

Hostess Ding Dongs are not something I would normally indulge in.

They are super high in calories and fat.

One single Hostess Ding Dong has about 10 grams of fat and around 200 calories!

But I bought them despite this fact.

I ate two today.

I wanted to eat more.

Alright I [...]

eating and exercise

Here is the scenario:

You go and exercise.

You work really hard and get a great workout.

Now you are hungry.

What do you eat?

Do you grab a carrot?

Do you go to McDonald’s?

Believe it or not if you have really worked hard sometimes it is better to go for something higher in calories than a carrot.

Exercise is hard work, you [...]
