Review: Pilates For Men 10-20-30 Challenge

This 3 disc set contains three 30ish minute workouts made for men by men. The set boasts that you will feel a difference in 10 workouts, see a difference in 20 and have a whole new body in 30 workouts. You will only need the included band & ball for these workouts. The instructor works out with one background exerciser who provides advanced modifications. The dvd is done in voiceover.

Disc one (28 min) focuses on the core & does not use any equipment. Exercises include: the hundred, single leg reach, bridge variations, rolling like a ball, calf raises, tri dips, teaser, side plank holds adding a hip drop, plank variations, and pushups.

Disc two (34 min) focuses on the upper body & uses the band. Exercises include: band pinches, oh band tri press, rotater cuff, zoro sword progression, upright rows, bench press & crunch, military press, pec fly & crunch, band teaser & hundred, delt pulls & bi curls in V sit, pushup & row, and side plank with a kick. Great use of the band

Disc three (33 min) focuses on the core and utilizes the ball. Exercises include: saw stretch, crunches, bridge, balance bridge, teaser adding rotation, bicycle, side lying oblique series, rollover or jackknives,  hip circles, & ball passes. Really like the unique addition of the ball.

I rate these workouts appropriate for most all fitness levels and appreciate that they include an advanced modification so you can really grow with this set. I like the addition of the band & ball to amp up the work and for variety. I think this is a great set for men and women alike. It adds some more strength work into the normal pilates routine-which both men & women can benefit from. Most exercises are done for 5-10 reps which allows for plenty of variety. I received this dvd to review.

Want to know how the Belles pamper their toes? How about a chance to win two of these award-winning foot care products???? Then Keep Reading!


This Fall Dr. Teal’s launched three new foot care products to their collection that work alongside their award winning Peppermint Foot Soak. The line-up includes; Epsom Salt Foot Scrub, Soothing Foot Cream and Cracked Heel Therapy. The four foot care items work together to disinfect, exfoliate, repair and pamper feet so they look and feel their finest.

Dr. Teals Epsom Salt Foot Soak :

Founded in 2003, Dallas-based Advanced Beauty Systems, Inc., is one of the fastest-growing health and beauty companies in the U.S. The company’s innovative, spa-quality product lines appeal to women desiring beauty on a budget or an at-home escape. Dr. Teals Therapeutic Bath and Body Products , one of Advanced Beauty Systems product lines, contain essential oils to soothe the senses, relax tense muscles and promote well-being. There is nothing I love more than after being on my feet all day or after a long run than to soak my feet. Dr. Teal’s® Epsom Salt Foot Soak , with Magnesium Sulfate, Peppermint Essential Oil and Baking Soda, provides an invigorating cooling sensation that revitalizes tired, achy feet all while eliminating foot odor. This one of a kind formula will leave you feeling pampered from heel to toe.

Dr. Teals Soothing Foot Cream :

It’s time to kick dry feet to the curb with Dr Teals Soothing Foot Cream! The newest member of the Dr Teals Foot Care Collection relieves and refreshes dry skin. This invigorating foot cream blends the soothing and smoothing ingredients of Shea Butter, Aloe Vera and Avocado Oil to deliver intense moisture to dry feet, while Tea Tree, Apricot and Grape Seed Oil disinfect and nourish the skin. Plus, the cooling effects of Menthol and Peppermint essential oil revitalize the senses. Dr Teals Soothing Foot Cream is a great follow-up to the Epsom Salt Foot Soak or the Epsom Salt Foot Scrub – or both.

Dr. Teals Epsom Salt Foot Scrub :

Looking for a foot scrub to slough away dry skin and reveal silky smooth skin that lies beneath? Well, look no further! Dr Teals also welcomes to its collection a product that will exfoliate and give you your softest feet yet – Dr Teals Epsom Salt Foot Scrub. The combination of Epsom Salt and pumice particles in their latest product will exfoliate dry skin, while Tea Tree Oil and Shea Butter nourish and moisturize feet. Plus, Peppermint essential oil soothes and refreshes the senses. I love the invigorating scent of peppermint and it definitely soothes my tired tootsies! Even DH loves this and I literally noticed softer feet & soles after only one use! This is perfect to use in the shower or bath, simply use your hand, a soft brush, towel, or a shower poof. I like to use this for my at-home pedicures. Save money and do it yourself at home with Dr. Teals Epsom Salt Foot Scrub!

Dr. Teals Cracked Heel Therapy :

DH & I are both in love with the NEW! Dr. Teal’s ® Cracked Heel Therapy! It provides healing moisture to rough, broken skin. This easy to use moisture balm is infused with Neem and Karanja Oil to penetrate and relieve dry skin, while Shea and Cocoa Butter create a barrier on the surface to help prevent further damage.  Smells great and is gender neutral in scent so perfect for the entire family! This is the solution for dry and cracked heels- what they call the Arizona heel here- because everyone wears flip flops & sandals so often. This nourishing formula goes on easily and is in a convenient stick to simply rub on and go. It is another perfect addition to pampering your feet with an at-home pedicure. You can find this and all Dr. Teals foot care items in the foot care section of your local pharmacy, grocery store, or big box store.

Collage Video

As you well know- Collage Video is officially the Belles favorite DVD distributor. And why wouldnt it be- they rock!!! Keep reading for a full review of Cathe Freidrich’s AfterBurn , from her new Low Impact Series. This dvd- along with other fav’s from Cathe’s Low Impact Series is on SALE at Collage Video right now for only $21.99!! Thats a super bargain! And you know your Collage Video orders always come SUPER fast and their shipping is FREE on most items over $25.00 and cheap on anything else. For example, I just ordered a foam roller (yay!) from Collage Video and the shipping was only $2.99- way cheaper than anywhere else I looked! I got it super duper fast- I can not wait to try it!!! Collage Video has some great foam roller dvds that I have my eye on. And Collage guarantees ALL of their dvds- even on ones you have opened! Thats customer service!

Low Impact Series: AfterBurn Review
Cathe Friedrich, 2011 ***** (5 of 5 stars)

This is an awesome 54 minute dvd that offers plenty of premixes & is chaptered very well. Cathe works out with 4 exercisers in a nice open set. You will need dumbbells and gliding discs for this workout. Cathe takes you through a cardio & a strength exercise which you repeat & move on to a new combo.

After a w/u exercises include: cardio squats, squats w/ clean & press, glider climbers, lunge floor touch, low impact skaters, swings,  disc burpees w/a pushup, runner sprints, dip & bi curl, plank w/ a leg thread, disc jacks (neat!), spiderman climbers, side lunge & over head press, plank drags, dip & lat raise, etc. & concludes with a c/d & stretch.

I rate this is a low advanced workout- it is simple choreo but nonstop heartpumping cardio and strength work. LOVE the unique exercises & the addition of the discs. Love the functional feel, low impact, and that my core was really worked!  I really love the low impact but high intensity & simple but not boring choreo- this is definitely a unique, fun but tough w/o. I look forward to more from this series! I received this video to review.

EdenFantasys is the number one online spot for all your sex toys needs but they also carry my favorite brand of bath products: Cake Beauty . I first had the pleasure of reviewing their Cake Beauty Sweet Escape set. It contains velveteen hand creme and bath/ shower gel. I am a huge fan of all things vanilla & coconut so this is a real treat with scents of creamy coconut & tahitian vanilla scented goodness with this perfectly-packaged gift set! Perfect to give as a gift or to keep for yourself :) This is my favorite Cake Beauty scent available at EdenFantasys! The lotion is creamy & nourishing but not at all greasy and the smell- wow! The bath gel is also wonderful

My second favorite scent is Cake Beauty’s Celebrate set. Have you had a creamsicle before? The Celebrate set contains their it’s a slice scent that is that exact yummy creamsicle scent. MMMM. It smells of creamy vanilla blended with sweet orange for a perfectly delicious balance! While the Cake Beauty Sweet Escape kit from EdenFantasys is my favorite scent- the Celebrate kit is a close close second. Really must we choose only one? NO- head on over to EdenFantasys and get both :) thats what I did!!! My girlfriends birthday is coming up and she complimented me on my fragrance last time I had it’s a slice on so I know what she will be getting! Lucky lady.

And in case you have a trip coming up EdenFantasys also carries a travel friendly Cake Beauty kit with everything you need for your trip AND the bottles are the correct sizes to stash in your carry on. The kit contains It’s a Slice body mousse and shower gel, Deserted Island body mousse & shower gel, and milk made velveteen hand creme!

Enter to win your very own fabulous Blush Tee Shirt Extender on Win, Lose, or Blog !

Today’s Thank You Thursday goes out to Blush Accessories and their comfy Tee-Shirt Extenders. If you are not familiar with Blush Accessories and their products, they offers a high quality line of tee shirt extenders made here in the USA! Provo, UT to be exact – such a small world when I {Laura} find awesome sponsors right in my backyard! I love buying local and US made! You should definitely check out their website !
Blush Accessories has offered to host an awesome giveaway by giving one of our readers a chance to win some of a Tee-Shirt Extender in their size! YAY !

I was sent a Mocha Tee Shirt Extender to review for this giveaway… and I am pretty sure that I have worn it twice a week since I’ve gotten it! Pretty much just a quick as I can get in in and out of the wash! {please excuse the no-make-up-face … this was first thing in the AM}

First Impressions:
I am not really sure what I was expecting, but at first it was kind of odd to just have half a shirt… I had to explain to my fiance that it is kind of like a reverse dickey… which is actually kind of humorous… The Tee Shirt Extender that I got was amazingly soft and the top band was not overbearing, I actually could barely tell I was wearing it! Since I am trying to lose weight these days I have noticed my pants are getting looser – which means they like to slide down my hiney when I am not paying attention… which creates less than ideal situations for me…. I love that the Tee-Shirt Extender helps keep me covered! With regular shirts I have to worry about bending over or reaching above my head and exposing myself! Not with the Tee-Shirt Extender!

Style:
The Extender I got was the ‘Mocha’ color… which for me, would not have been my first choice – only because I wanted to wear it so often that a black one would have gone with more of my clothes… I think layering it totally *in* right now, so the Extender is a really nice way to keep covered and still be stylish!

Sizing:
I think that they might be a little on the big side, or intentionally loose… I am a size 14 right now, so that would be a M/L by their sizing charts, but I felt like mine could have been a size smaller and still would have fit nicely… They go up to a L/XL for sizes up to 24+ which is awesome!

Cost:
These Tee-Shirt Extenders cost $16 when purchased individually or you can get a small discount when buying in bulk (3 for $40!)… Plus our readers can get 20% off by entering welovebloggers at checkout!

In my penny pinching, wedding fund saving, mind – these are sold a a very fair price! To get the extra coverage that these shirts provide you would easily pay the same amount for another shirt to layer with – only full shirts don’t stay put and keep your hiney covered… definitely worth keeping my booty private! Buy Them :

The Tee-Shirt Extender sells for $16 on their site… They’re so light that shipping it very reasonable ($2.00 to ship a three pack to my mom in New York!)

Enter to win your very own fabulous Blush Tee Shirt Extender on Win, Lose, or Blog !

Contest Ends 3/2/12 at midnight… U.S. residents only please! Contest open to blog fans & followers, contestants, & mini-contestants!

I received a sample of these products to review, and one of our readers will win a free product from Blush Accessories. I was in no other way compensated for my honest reviews. All thoughts and ideas expressed are my own.

Seane Corn Detox Flow Yoga Workout Details and Review

Detox Flow Yoga , just released by Gaiam in December 2011, features world-renowned and gifted yoga instructor, Seane Corn . With a total running time of 110 minutes, the DVD includes two complete yoga workouts. From the main menu you have the option of selecting either of the two workouts with the additional option of full audio mix or instruction only. A yoga mat is required for the workout.

Seane Corn Detox Flow Yoga contains two complete workouts. “Twist and Flow” – is a thirty-five minute practice that focuses on bending, twisting and stretching to help build strength, release toxins, and increase your overall circulation. The“Purify” workout, a sixty-five minute routine, kicks things up a notch with a more challenging workout that helps you burn calories and increase flexibility while still focusing on reducing stress and tension through focused movement and breath. Some poses you will find in the worout include: Sun Salutations, Twisting Triangles, Cat-Cow, Warrior, Seated Twist and Downward Facing Dog. The DVD also includes a bonus downloadable 10-minute “Core Energy” workout to strengthen and tone your core muscles.

Seane Corn Detox Flow Yoga is a great addition to any exercise DVD library – whether you are new to yoga or an experienced yogi. The poses in the workout are designed to help eliminate stress, block out outside “energy” and other barriers to allow for the free flow of energy throughout your body. Seane does a wonderful job of carefully demonstrating and explaining each pose so you can easily follow along, even if you are new to yoga.

Today’s Review: The Firm: Time Crunch Cardio
Allie Del Rio, 2011

This dvd has three 20 min w/o’s on it, a cardio, a C+S, and a strength workout w/ cardio bursts. Allie leads with 2 backgrounders, one showing beginner modifications. You will need dumbbells for this workout. I found the C+S and the S to be very unique new offerings from the Firm and I really liked them!!!!

Calorie Burning Cardio: This w/o contains 2 routines that are not overly choreographed. After a fairly long warmup exercises include step touch w/ a head snap, march & shuffle, step squats, pivot taps, & pivot kicks.. Allie def adds in some flair w/ exercises like the “spank” and the “tush push.”

Cardio + Sculpt Combo: The pace of this w/o allows you to heavy up but keeps your heart rate up. After a warm up exercises include: hop- burpee- pushup combo, squats, rows, bi curl variations, row- kickbacks, pliet abduction, jump & side kick, around the world lunges, & standing knee pulls and other standing core work for the cooldown.

Fat Blasting Bursts: This is a great light & heavy four-limb workout that keeps your heart pumping. Exercises include: lunge & overhead pass, cardio squats & jumps, cardio lunge to plyo lunges, side lunge w/ a cross bi-curl & delt raise, step touch to moguls, dip & overhead tricep, floor touch & knee ups, deadlift & rows, static pliets w/ elbow to knee cross pulls, ribcage twists adding a punch, and other standing core work for the cooldown.

I rate the cardio a beginner workout and the other 2 solid intermediates that are easy to modify by adjusting your poundage. I used heavier weights and really got a great workout. I really enjoyed both the strength workouts and felt they were new & fresh Firm offerings! I look forward to more like this! Allie does a great job leading, good cuing & form pointers. I received this dvd to review.

As I have shared on my blog, DH & I recently went on a cruise. It was our first (of hopefully many) and I was nervous about the possibility of motion & sea sickness so I was THRILLED with the opportunity to review Sea-Bands. And am I happy I did- NO sea sickness- even on the choppy days! And because Sea-Bands are drug free and all natural, no worry of side effects and no need to put chemicals into my body. Safe for everyone: children and even pregnant women- perfect for morning sickness! And perfect for Post Operative and Chemotherapy Induced Nausea . I wish I had these after surgery, I was SO sick after that, blech.
What are Sea-Bands? They are small comfy accupresure wristbands that naturally relieve your nausea symptoms! I wore mine day & night on the cruise- I was not risking getting sea sick and ruining my cruise. They are comfortable and barely noticeable . Here is a picture where you can see my light blue Sea-Bands.
Sea-Band is clinically proven to relieve nausea of various types.  To find out more click one of the nausea types below :

Motion Sickness and Travel Sickness

Sea-Band also offers a great tasting ANTI-NAUSEA Ginger Gum that can be used in place of or in addition to your Sea-Band wristband. I had the pleasure of trying the Ginger Gum. It tastes like ginger ale soda but much more convenient and it really calms the nausea!

Lucy Activewear has offered to host an awesome giveaway by giving one of our readers a chance to win some of their amazing clothing.


I was sent a pair of Lucy Hatha Power Pants to review for this giveaway… and let me tell you I was amazed! I am very picky about the workout wear that I get for myself since I like many women am a little obsessive about my perceived flaws… Pants especially are tough for me! So I was a little skeptical when I first opened my package from Lucy Activewear. First Impressions:
The pants were obviously made out of a high quality fabric, with impressive stitching… no worries about splitting them at the seams mid-warrior-pose… haha. I also liked that the material was soft since I have sensitive skin, a lot of fabrics tend to irritate my skin.

Style:
The pants I received were solid black… I wore them to a yoga class at my local fitness center and still felt comfortable enough in them to run to the grocery store afterwards. I love not feeling like I am hiding under baggy sweats or raggy cut-off shorts anymore.

Sizing:
I think that these pants run true to the size charts Lucy has on their site. A major plus in my book is that this pair of pants comes in THREE different heights! I know tall ladies like my Mama and shorties like myself appreciate the ability to customize!

Cost:
These pants currently sell for $89 per pair… It may seem steep to most, but when you factor the quality and functionality of these pants you really are getting a pretty great deal.

Buy Them :

The Lucy Hatha Power Pant sells for $89 on their site… Lucy offers free shipping on all orders over $125 – so grab a new workout top and skip the shipping costs!
