Yoga, Yoga, Yoga!

I did something I've never done before…..I did yoga on the beach!  What is beach yoga?  It's nothing more than taking a yoga class on the beach.  Bring your towel (and it better be a BIG towel) and your swimsuit, because you can jump in the Gulf when you're done, which I did! Now, if [...]

Turn Yard Work Into A Traditional Workout

OK, summer time is right around the corner.  Did you know you could have a complete workout but working in your yard?  Anyone that does yard work already knows how much you sweat when doing it, so you already got that part licked!  LOL!

Can You Make A Healthy Pasta Dish?

Me being Italian, pasta was part of my growing up, and to this day it's still my favorite food, without question!  BUT, most people don't think of pasta as being healthy.  Matter of fact, most people don't think of pasta having any other sauce than the traditional red or some sort of cream sauce.

Does Fitness and Technology Mix?

Well, looks like I goofed with something, I just don't know what.  I say this because my last post, about launching "The Interview Series: Fitness Edition", had some technical difficulties.  Whatever it was, I'm not sure.  But I do know that if you signed up, it never got registered.  I'm asking if you did register, [...]

But I Don’t Like To Work Out!

When it comes to working out, I understand that some people just don't care to do it.  I also believe that those are the type of people who probably wouldn't be reading the post either!  LOL No one says you have to work out to be healthy.  I'm sure their are studies that show how [...]

Healthy Cooking With “The Family”

When I was growing up, going out to eat to McD's was a treat, mainly because it was so rare.  Today, it's more of the norm, or the expectation.  And, if you look around, we as a nation have a lot of unhealthy kids.  [I will also stress this is totally my opinion]. If you're [...]

Yoga? I Still Don’t Get It!

So tonight I did the Yoga that comes with the P90X workout program (which I LOVE btw!)  I bring this up because, and I've said this before…..I DON'T GET YOGA!  I'm told it's supposed to be soothing, it's supposed to clear the mind, it's supposed to make you feel relaxed.  Well, I must be the [...]
