Body Blog: Stay Motivated!
Finding it hard to make your health a daily priority? Can’t stick to that diet? Are you letting a day off turn into a few days? Or a few weeks? Join the club – I know I’m not jumping for joy at the thought of going to the gym either.
Body Blog: Stay Healthy… Even During Finals!
Pulling all-nighters, running on coffee and 5-hour-energy shots, and making the library your new permanent residence? College is already hard enough! Then, at the end of every semester, we have to deal with EXAMS.

Body Blog: For a Healthier Lifestyle, Turn to Your iPhone
As we all surely know, starting a new diet or exercise routine can be an expensive and time consuming endeavor. Gym memberships, personal trainers and private nutritionists have always come with a hefty fee, and women are often too busy to take the steps necessary for achieving weight loss.

Cardio, abs, arms, lunges, squats, pushups… that’s the norm for most college girls. You may think you’re getting all the important muscle groups in your body, but you’re forgetting the most important one: your back!
Body Blog: Want To Lose Weight Faster? Don’t Be Afraid of Heavy Weights
If you’re like most gym-going girls, you believe that lifting any weight above 10 pounds will make you too bulky. There’s a fine line between looking toned and looking like superwoman — no one wants biceps that will make people think you’ve been chugging Muscle Milk.
Body Blog: Your Post Workout Snack
After pulling on your Nikes and adding that new Jason Derulo song to your iPod, you drag yourself to the gym for an hour.

You finish your workout, do a little stretch, and walk home feeling happy as a clam.

Maybe it was the physical pain and exhaustion I felt after Irish dancing at a pre-St. Patrick’s Day event last weekend. And then watching all my old friends performing on St. Patrick’s Day, so full of energy, making it all look so easy.
One Month Challenge: Fun with Fitness, Week 1
OK, so Week 1 wasn’t entirely unsuccessful. But that’s not saying much. By the time Wednesday night rolled around, I realized I had yet to do any physical activity whatsoever. I hadn’t even walked to class all week.
Bad Advice Women Get: Get Fit for Prom
If teen magazines are to be believed, from January to June, there’s exactly one thing on every female high school student’s mind: prom. Or should I say: ~~*OMG PROM!!@! Only writing out the word like that can give it the respect it deserves.
