5 Reasons to Stay Fit During Fall

Neutrals

Ladies, I know you'll all pretty much agree when I say the Summer of 2015 is OVER. Now before you get all technical about it, I know that summer doesn't officially end until September 22, but from what I can see all the signs point to it being just about gone. You know the signs I'm talking about, you can feel a slight chill in the air, school buses and kiddie carpools have taken over the morning commute and most importantly, you've magically put on a few pounds. At the beginning of the summer, we were all pretty much dead-set on having a perfect bodies. However by the end of the summer it was obvious the majority of us chose to forgo fitness in favor of food, friends and fun. The scary…

I’m In Love With Nike Leggings

Neutrals

Right now, I’m hooked on wearing Nike leggings. I really think they complement your body and feel great. I don’t know if you’ve noticed but these are trending big time and a lot of celebrities are helping this trend by wearing them while doing their shopping and daily routines (not just going to the gym) If you’re like me and do a lot of exercising, on your “rest days” I like my legs to recover by wearing leggings. My legs sometimes ache from running, yoga and squats etc. so I tend to wear my Nike’s (if I can) after my workout too. I’ve got so many pairs of leggings in my wardrobe; I think I’m obsessed. I get really excited when I go shopping and see them… sounds sad and…

Should I Waist Cinch/Trim/Train? Pt.2

Neutrals

If you missed part 1 last Friday check it out here There's a lot of mixed information out there about waist training. So much so that you can find articles to support whatever side you take on this topic. I know, I did my "research" before purchasing 2 waist clinchers and a waist trimmer. But which side is right? [gallery type="rectangular" size="medium" ids="6788,6789"] What I've found is that it's ALL true! I don't have X-ray's to claim that my organs were affected but after consistently wearing my smaller waist cincher my ribs were always sore. However it helped my posture tremendously and I did lose inches around my waist. So which do you listen too? Well first understand that no matter how many cinchers, trimmers, lifters, miracle wraps you use, nothing will…

Should I Waist Cinch/Trim/Train? Pt.1

Neutrals

My friend April posted this on Facebook. Had to share it because it inspired this post: I laughed so hard when I saw this but she's right. Shortcuts are never the move but many women are using them to get the ideal body type. These days it's a literal hour glass: big breasts, teeny tiny waist and big hips and butt. I have no clue if the above pic was photoshopped, I just found it on Instagram. I say that because some women are actually built like this -but more often than not they had some help. For example there's camera filters, specific posing angles and photoshop apps for the internet and IG, but what about when you want that look in person? Do you know there's such a thing…

#SweatItOut

Corals

A few weeks ago on IG I said that I'd be posting a review of a new fitness product I'm using called Sweet Sweat. It's a product designed to help you sweat more during a workout, improve circulation & essentially shed body fat quicker. As some of you may know I'm an avid wearer of waist cinchers but earlier in the summer I transitioned to a smaller size & being that it makes me short of breath (not asthmatic, but I can't be falling out at the gym!). It's also not suggested to wear them all the time & sleeping in it 6-8hrs a couple times a week is enough for me. I noticed a waist trimmer getting buzz on the internet, did a little research & found out they're safer to…
