Face is working out sucks sometimes. I have been there and I’m sure most of you have as well. So what am I suggesting? Jump rope! This has been the only cardio I have performed in the last year.

Imagine cutting your workout time by that much? Crazy isn’t it? To me, it does not feel like cardio because I enjoy it so much. I w ..read more

You’re probably wondering, (well you are). Which protein bar is the best. Fortunately for you, protein bars suit different needs. Just like anything these bars are customizable to the person or the individual’s goals. With so many brands out there it’s almost impossible to narrow them down to the best. BUT, don’t you worry I did the hard work for you! It took years as a consumer to realize which brands were actually worth your time and money. You worked hard for that money so why waste it on something that is not benefitting you or your wallet. I know you’re probably saying what if I am a vega ..read more

Congratulations – You’ve made it this far. Organic? That’s a common question I get from clients. First, ask yourself a few questions. Why are you changing to organic? Is it worth it? and How will it benefit you? I debated with myself for years if organic was a better option. Here’s my honest answer. If you can afford it, then sure.

Of course, the yellow light flashes about 1,000 times before I even attempt to slow down. So when this occurs I like to ..read more
