Over the past several years, I have tried different things to keep my mind focused while doing cardio in the gym. At first, I tried reading magazines and books. It worked for a little bit, but I felt my intensity wasn't as high as it could be. The faster or more intense I went, I'd only look at pictures, skim the articles or just...

Make Goals - Not New Years Resolutions
I love making goals, but I have never been a fan of new years resolutions. Why not make goals and start working towards them tomorrow? Why wait until a new year?
The beginning of January will be here before we know it, and the gym is going to be packed! Don't get me wrong, I am all for people wanting to change their life and get...

Frozen Bananas...Yummy Snack!
One of my favorite snacks is frozen bananas. Yep, just plain. YUM! It's so easy to "make" and can be really cheap too. I've even purchased the very ripe bananas that are discounted at this store just for this purpose.

Love Food, Larger Portion, Still Healthy...Say WHAT!???
I love food just like anyone else. I am a picky eater, but when I find something that I enjoy...watch out! One way I get to eat a lot of food (well maybe it's just tricking my stomach...hehe) is to make my protein shakes into a...

Choose any piece of equipment and do a 5 minute warm up.
Next, go to the stairmill. If you do not have a stairmill, a treadmill will work. Please note the difficulty numbers may change depending on the type of stairmill...

Doing One Thing Well...
I have been pretty much MIA on social media lately, but I'm alive and well. :)
Up until about a month ago, I would cringe when someone asked me what I did for a career. Why? It's because I don't have a "typical" job. I get bored pretty easily, so I like to do many different things so I don't get tired or burnt out. So...

Is there anything healthy out there?
Wow...when you really sit and think about processed foods, it's just mind blowing. I just learned that Mio drops have propylene glycol, which is commonly used as a solvent in antifreeze, plastics and perfume industries. Ick!
Just a short, simple fact that I wanted to share...have a wonderful rest of the weeken...

I love to be active and get a good workout, but I get bored pretty easily. I always need to mix it up and find ways to keep it feeling new and exciting. There are a couple ways that I have been doing this lately, and I wanted to share:
