Couch to 5K

Hello everyone!


I decided that I want to start getting into jogging. Not running, per say, but jogging.  As an out of shape couch potato, I decided I would like to try the infamous Couch to 5K program as well as my Addicted to Sweat DVDs and Power Yoga when they get here. 

Here's how I want my workouts to look while I am training for this.

3x a week- jogging practice
Other 3 days- Power Yoga (as much as I can)
1 day- Rest
6 days- Addicted to Sweat

This is just a tentative thing, I will change accordingly.  I may even drag out my Couch to 5K by doing every  week's worth of running twice, if I feel the pace is going too fast.

And yes, Madonna does still jog and does her yoga. THAT'S how she got those arms (yoga, that is) 


And yes, my goal is to get a similar body to hers. That's what got me even into Tracy Anderson to begin with.

I'm getting them!!!!!!

Hello everyone!



The Addicted to Sweat DVDs by Madonna and Nicole Winhoffer went on sale today! (yay!)


So while I wait for those... I am going to be stalking the mail. Details of which may end up here and may annoy people, haha.

So, for today, I have been listening to inspiration!





I love how things can be easily ordered online, but I hate the wait!

Coconut Oil

Hello everyone!


I picked up some coconut oil today, and I wanted to share a video explaining all the good health benefits it has.





I bought a 14 ounce jar of virgin unrefined coco oil just to taste/try it.  If I like it and how it makes me feel, then I will order more!

Still excited

Hello everyone!


Allegedly, the Hard Candy DVDs come out on Wednesday but the wait is feeling like forever!  I know it's tomorrow but I feel like a kid on Christmas eve.



I may not ever look like this, but I am hoping I come close~!  As soon as they are available to order, I am doing so and I will review them in detail here, as well as make assessments and changes to what my own workouts will be like. 


Any of you guys dying to try? I am!

Low calorie diet may not help extend life

Hello everyone!

Apparently there is a diet out there called the Longevity Diet, which is a low calorie diet that supposedly helps people live longer.


Recent studies show it may not be the case.

They did a study on a group of Rhesus monkeys, which are the closest relative DNA wisely to humans.


The studies showed that while the low calorie monkeys did have healthier bodies (low diabetes/heart issues, etc) they really did not live longer than the regularly fed monkeys.

Madonna's Diet

Hello everyone!


As you know, I have been covering Madonna's upcoming workout DVDs. Well, I decided this time to touch on something else Madonna/fitness related. Her diet. What does she eat?


According to the internet, she eats a very strict Macrobiotic diet.

What IS a macrobiotic diet? This video explains it a bit.



It's mostly vegetarian and grain based. No dairy, and if they do eat meat, it's fish and even that is sparingly.

Also, I have heard about the blood type diet and if that has any validity, then type A blood types like myself would do well on this diet.


What do you think? Try it? Not try?
