If you don’t have a go-to dinner salad, I highly suggest you bring this one into your rotation – it’s such a hit! My friend introduced me to this about three months ago, and it’s now known as “our salad†because it’s just so dang delish! If you are cooking dinner for your significant other [...]

Bosu Squats
Bosu. What the heck is that? It’s that blue half-ball thingy that you see at the gym and don’t really know what its purpose is. Guess what? It’s got a lot going on! Today I’m going to discuss all the fun you can have using it to do squats. Bosu means Both Sides Up or [...]
Healthy Chocolate Pudding
Not only is this pudding healthy and delicious, it takes less than 10 minutes to make! I know the main ingredient sounds a bit odd, but after reading reviews on different blogs of children who love this recipe, I knew I had to give it a go. Ingredients 1 medium-sized, ripe avocado (pitted and peeled) [...]
Travel Fitness: Hong Kong & Malaysia
The two most difficult times to stay in shape (for me) are traveling and holidays. Do you agree? I just got back from a two-week trip to Hong Kong and Malaysia and man, it’s really hard to maintain a routine while exploring new horizons! Many hotels have an in-house gym, but when you’re in another [...]
2010 = New Fitness Goals!
It’s a new year, friends. Happy days at the gym begin right about now…when everyone joins and vows they’re going to starting working out and staying in shape. We have all been in this predicament with one excuse or another, and it’s important to have goals in the fitness world. However, staying healthy should be [...]
I Moved to Sunny San Diego!
Would anyone in NYC be offended if I tell you that I’m cold? In a city that usually holds temperatures in the 70s year-round, I’m feeling just a bit cold in the 50- and 60-degree lows we are seeing in SSD (Sunny San Diego). After five and a half years of living and loving NYC, [...]
San Diego: The Sporting Club at The Aventine
Located in La Jolla, California, The Sporting Club is actually one of the more expensive gyms in San Diego, but I guess coming from New York City, it seems pretty inexpensive for what you get. To be a member of this luxurious little gym, it costs $100 per month with a $300 initiation fee. Because [...]
I Did 100 Push-Ups
After attempting the whole one hundred push-up challenge, I decided that I would take things into my own hands. Well, this isn’t entirely true. My friend Jodi, who has recently become a fitness maven, told me that she did 5 sets of 20 push-ups and I started to feel a bit of push-up envy. Then [...]
Upper Body by Matthew McConaughey
I’m back! It has been almost a month since my last post about fitness, which funny enough, was about motivation. For me, the summer is my season to relax and enjoy the weather (especially being in NYC) and thus, I don’t make it to the gym more than 2-3 times per week. I do ride [...]
What is Your Motivation?
It’s sometimes hard to find the motivation to engage in physical fitness…I think this is a problem for most people I know at one time or another. I will go for weeks where I’m pumped up and excited about working out, but there are other times, however, where I just would rather do anything else. [...]
