Bandz #Workout

I must admit this is one of the most RATCHET songs I have ever heard.  I also discovered my husband downloaded it on iTunes!  Regardless of how off the hook it is sometimes we just need to get RAW because it helps us through those tough workouts or long arduous runs.  Well I had to name this workout after this song because it was a tough one ...

Featured Fitale Kim Croslin

Kinda like the song says, "I found love in a hopeless place!" When I joined Fit Like Me Divas (FLMD) on January 17, 2012, I was in a hopeless place.

#Nike+ Running App Review

I finally got a chance to try out another running app as I ran a quick and I do mean VERY quick 25 to 30 minute treadmill workout.  Long story short...daycare closes by a certain time and I was late getting to the gym with my little 5-year old. I decided to try the Nike+ Running app which I downloaded to my iPhone some months ago.  I found out ...

Fitness Sisterhood

Many people enjoy working out alone.  It gives them time to concentrate on their mind/muscle connection and it is their "me" time.  They work out solo in the weight room or running inside or outside.  I don't fault them because if you get the "wrong" workout buddy it can be more harmful and beneficial and our work out time is precious so who ...

Taking The Plunge

I've been a fitness enthusiast for years.  I remember being 12 and away at camp and working out on their nautilus machines and taking aerobics to the high-energy songs of the 80's like "Gloria" and "Maniac".  That was also the birth era of rap music which has its bunch of songs to work out to.  This has been in my blood for a while.  When I ...
