S is for Snacks
//
The letter "S" is for snacks. If any of you are like me, working out multiple times a week constantly leaves me hungry throughout the day. On one hand that is a good thing, gives me an inclination my metabolism is burning but on the other hand - it gets difficult to make the right choice if I do not plan properly.
Check out my quick ...
Q is for Quiet Time
There's something to be said for those individuals who have quiet time in the morning to meditate and spend time with themselves and God during the quiet hours of the morning.

Reasons Why I Wake Up Early to Workout
I have determined the best time of day for me to get my workout in is first thing in the morning. It took a while for me to draw this conclusion but several things helped me get here. First let me start by saying I began a regular fitness program in 2005 after being inspired by a co-worker who survived breast cancer. She was in her 50's ...

J is for Jump Rope
Easily one of my favorite forms of cardio, I think many of us forget how effective jumping rope is. I decided to buy a jump rope years into my adulthood when I watched Zuzana of Zuzka Light and formerly of the BodyRock TV days jumping rope and working up a sweat. Another fitness guru who got me motivated to jump rope was Jennifer Nicole ...

Define what health is for you and then do you research to optimize it. Do you have high blood pressure? Is it hereditary? What do you need to ...
G is for Goals
I will admit, I am not one to set too many goals when it comes to fitness. A friend once told me to sign up for a race therefore I would have a goal to strive for to help with my long distance run training. It didn’t help – signing up for a half marathon did not actually make me train more or harder than I normally would.
Now ...
