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 weekend!

Mixing Up The Workouts...

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:

1.  I love my Pandora.  I picked 6 exercises, and did 1 exercise per song.  I didn't even count the reps, but I'm sure I did 100 reps on some exercises.  Man was I sore for days after this...it was so different for me!  Don't forget to warm up before, and do some stretching after.

2.  Video intervals.  I may have shared this before, but I really enjoy it.  The French Open was on, so I would jog at a higher than normal speed for a few minutes during a video, hop to the sides when it was done, pick a new video and jog again.  I think time really flies when you watch something really good.  Before I knew it, I had done 20 minutes and I felt great!

Have fun!
