XplosiveFit – Punching My Way Through the KickFit Class!

Posted on February 9, 2016 | Filed Under: Fitness | Tags: West Hills fitness studio, West Hills martial arts, XplosiveFit | 2 Comments

A couple weeks ago, I tried out a class at XplosiveFit in West Hills. The KickFit class is 30 minutes of sweaty fun, incorporating rope exercises & punching drills that I have never done. This class was like no other one that I've taken & it was just what I needed to change things up in my exercise routine! After a thorough warm-up, Coach Rod (owner of XplosiveFit) breaks up the class into groups & then demonstrates each move … [Read more...]

SweatSTR – A Scarf & Towel Reinvented!

Posted on December 1, 2015 | Filed Under: Fitness, Product Reviews | Tags: athleisure, fitness wear, SweatSTR | 8 Comments

Now that the weather is getting chilly here in Los Angeles, I've been layering up when I get dressed to workout. I've discovered a new way to wipe the sweat during jogging or working out that is a combination scarf AND towel. That fitness product is called SweatSTR (sounds like sweater but with an "ST" within it). The idea is that you wear it out jogging or as part of your workout attire. With athleisure on the rise, it seems like the perfect … [Read more...]

If you follow my Instagram, then you may recall that last month I attended the Shape Meet & Tweet event in Santa Monica. It was held at the beautiful Annenberg Community Beach House!

There was SO much content & fabulousness happening in the 2015 event that I have to break down my recap into sections. This first one will be about … [Read more...]
