2009Holiday Fat Loss Tip – Plan Your Workouts
Filed Under (Mico Fitness) by Admin on 07-12-2009
I have always really struggled to keep up with my fitness goals when it comes to the month of December. Not only is there all of the holiday hoopla going on, but my birthday also falls in December so the month feels like one long party.

2009Before I Was The Fitness Diva….
Filed Under (Fitness Confessions) by Admin on 07-12-2009
I was just a DIVA…………with really highly piled hair!!Look at that ‘do. It’s quite something, isn’t it?? I must have had at least 10 inches going up on top there. Certainly enough to put Marie Antoinette, Queen Victoria and any of those other dames from that era to shame! 
Gotta love these old pics. They are too funny!

2009Pimping the Push Up
Filed Under (Equipment Experiments) by Admin on 07-12-2009
Once upon a time I could do a push up. Many, even! But then I got pregnant and had a baby and the phrase “shredded, ripped abs” took on a whole new meaning. You never know how much you use your core muscles until you no longer have any. I discovered this the other day when I talked my dubious husband into walking the track with the wee Jelly Bean so I could do half a Turbokick class. Maybe it was too early to go back to high-impact activities but I’m not going to lie to you, it was like fitness crack and I’ll do it again the second I get another chance. I felt awesome.

2009How to Choose the Right Fitness Shoe [Help a Reader Out]
Filed Under (Equipment Experiments) by Admin on 02-12-2009
Be honest: how many pairs of athletic shoes do you own? (Notice I did not ask you how many total pairs of shoes you own. I learned my lesson freshman year of college when asking that question found me helping my roommate pack up her 85 (!!) pairs into boxes on moving day. And those were just the ones she felt necessary for school. Not that I’m judging – I am a girl who loves her silly shoes.) At any given point in time, I own one pair of running shoes (Aasics as this is the only area I’m fiercely brand loyal), a set of cross-trainers for lifting weights and Crossfitting and whatnot (currently black & hot pink Nike frees – adorbs!!), a set of different cross trainers specifically for high-impact activities like TurboKick (Rykas at the moment) and a pair of smooth-bottomed dance shoes for Hip Hop and Zumba (Nike studio dance shoes but my sparkly silver or pink Chuck T’s work pretty awesome too).

2009Top 5 Fitness Gifts for Under $20!
Filed Under (Mico Fitness) by Admin on 01-12-2009
Happy December everyone!
Did you see those lines at the mall this past weekend? Crazy. I honestly have never been a post-Thanksgiving weekend shopper and for the past few years I’ve done about 90% of my holiday shopping online. Over the next couple of weeks most of my shopping will take place over my morning cup of coffee or after 11 pm and my holiday gifts will arrive (many beautifully gift-wrapped) at my doorstep.
