SKIN: 100% Pure + more!
I am very fortunate to be a blogger. And I am very fortunate to receive wonderful products from companies who trust that I will blog truthfully about their product. Aside from fitness, skin has always been one of my top priorities in ‘keeping up appearances.’ It is so important to understand what you consume every day but it also important to understand what kind of product you are...

When the going gets tough, get tougher.
**Disclaimer - this is long and wordy but I feel the need to write about how I feel today and everything I have done. Â I have done this before, but I need another reflection for myself :). Â This is mostly for me, but maybe you’ll find some inspiration in it for yourself.**
Wow, what a February. Â There has been so much that has been going, that I have not been able to post in a while....

The dreadful 5 letter word. STRESS
Taken from Nature’s Beauty Secrets:
When we are worried and anxious our skin shows it. We react to stress with breakouts and sallow complexion. But when we are happy and relaxed our skin glows. The ancient Greeks believed that physical beauty came from being in balance with nature. In fact, the word “cosmetics” comes from the Greek work kosmetikos, which means harmony with...

Alright, so I was fooling around after a workout at my sisters when I decided to try a press handstand from a push up position. Mind you, I haven’t done a press handstand from a push up position in probably 10+ years but I decided to give it a go a couple days ago. There I went, push up position to a press handstand!! You can hear my screaming...

Floor ABS
I love ab workouts, especially crunches. And I think because I have a high tolerance for ab workouts, the new workout that I am doing with Ash at BAR in Oakland may be able to change some of the (lack of) definition in my tums. However, I am also starting a strict ab diet tomorrow, so lets see if my own ab workout and diet will effect my tummy! I decided to test out my ab workout on my family...

Abs diet!
Tomorrow I am starting an abs diet. I have never really ever “dieted” so this is going to be a true test for me. When I was a gymnast, we would workout for 4-5 hours a day after school and I never worried about my weight. Back then, my family and I never really considered fast food to be too deadly so we would head to McDonald’s or Burger King and I would scarf down 20...
