Wow! I'm not sure you want to know, need reminding or are even aware we've almost wrapped up a full year of dealing with the first pandemic of our lives. The ups and downs have been real, the adjustments major and the mood...well all over the place if we are really honest...

This might be a good time to consider a personal activity tracker. But we'll warn you right now that the choices of styles, features and price ranges can be dizzying.

This whole health and fitness thing can get super confusing, making it SUPER easy to just say screw it when you arrive at your first hiccup. Don't do that! You've done that before and I can tell you as a member of the used-to-be-a-big-girl club, it gets better!

I kept pushing and each week I lost a few pounds and a few more and each week I didn't gain anything. I lost 30, 40, 50 pounds and then I had to start working out because I had a plateaued.

I feel super pumped to have a trainer who is going to teach me new tips and tricks to achieve my latest goal, a flat stomach.

Over the years we've seen several fun ways to exercise. From Jazzercise to Tai Bo to Zumba and more, there are ways to exercise and have fun doing it. Fortunately for us, Nathan of Fitness with Nathan brings a crazy that started 15 years ago in Europe to the Pacific Northwest for the first time and it's right in our back yard.

So it's taking over the internet, so I figured I'd make sure all of you have seen it! I saw it on Facebook.com, of course. I think I am going to get Jennifer Williams to do it...What do you think? Maybe both of us, every morning, doing squats...

As I said this morning, I won't be working out anytime soon! But this guy, seems to be a fitness freak! He does the unthinkable, a 1 Pinky Pull-Up! Is it even possible? Apparently it is!    

Will an apple a day actually make you a big hit on the beach? It's possible, as new research suggests that ursolic acid, which is found in abundance in an apple's peal, builds muscles while reducing fat.
