Do You Know What You Are Drinking

I also remember reading articles in Essence and Ebony about human excrement and how to read your waste. I read this infographic and thought it would be great to share with you all so you can know how to read and listen to your body and most ...

Work It Wednesday Workout
This workout was focused primarily on legs. Everyone knows my hamstrings are TIGHT. They stay tight. Well today, my trainer had me working on my hamstrings which must be the weakest part of my body. I tried not to throw evil looks as I worked through the lactic acid but I am not sure I accomplished that. Anywho - this is the workout. ...

End Of Time and Week In Review
First I would like to say I hope everyone had a wonderful time at the Beyoncé concert these past few weeks.

You guys looked like you had a ball and I hear it is one of ...
Blurred Lines and Week In Review
Maaaaannnnnnnnn this week was CRAY CRAY! I was really sick on Sunday which boiled over into Monday. Work was hectic and busy with a major launch and my workouts were sporadic.

July 22 Workout Week in Review
I am still doubling up with Sanders Optimum Fitness workouts along with my personal trainer's workouts. I wish Monte and Heather would talk to each other because this week was tough. I was sore ALL WEEK. When I say sore, I am talking about abs and hamstrings. It took a mile run just to warm up my hamstrings in my boot camp class. OY! ...
All I Do Is Win
Honestly - that is not true. I do not always win or am number one in everything I do. Sometimes I stop trying or I come in dead last. But either way when it comes to this fitness thing I do not always feel as if I have to "win" against someone. I typically compete with myself. I test myself to see how far I can push a weight or how ...
