Fat Burning Hip Hop Mix
Billy Blanks Jr., 2012
Billy leads this fun customizable 47 min workout with 6 background exercisers in a nice lighted studio. There are three 10 min sections and a 6 min section that combines the routines for an all out dance party. It also includes a separate w/u & c/d. You won’t need any equipment for this workout.
The 1st 10 min segment (Basics) is straight forward hip hop that is easy to follow and fun! The next segment (Hip Hop Bollywood) is a unique combination of Bollywood style moves with classic hip hop dance. The final segment (Hip Hop Samba) combines hip hop dance with samba moves. The final 6 min segment includes the completed routines from the other segments for a complete dance routine.
I rate this a low intermediate workout in terms of both choreo and intensity. Billy includes a unique mix of hip hop with other genres to create a fun workout that moves along nicely. He is very encouraging & his cuing is great. Great “feel good” workout that is easy to modify up or down. I received this dvd to review.
Let me introduce to you my new
super food snack

Somersaults
are a DELICIOUS healthy, bite-sized crunchy snacks . The main ingredient is the delicious & nutritious
sunflower seed combined with simple, all-natural ingredients of the highest quality
so you can feel good sharing Somersaults with your whole family. We love the nut free nutrition of sunflower seeds so much and are happy to see that this nutritional super hero is the #1 ingredient in every Somersault snack!
I had the pleasure of reviewing all the DELICIOUS varities of Somersault Snacks and I have a hard time choosing a favorite. For a sweet variety I am in love with their Dutch Cocoa , mildly sweet, natural nutty flavor, and a great crunch. DH loved the savory Santa Fe Salsa variety, awesome crunch, a little zip of herbs, and the Somersault nutty flavor. But seriously- every flavor is yummy and nutritious!

I am a giant fan of GaiamTV .com , the fabulous go-to site for every fitness need and trend. I’m a daily user of GaiamTV .com myself, being a busy mother of three athletic teenage boys, running my own business, and maintaining a successful marriage of 21 years. I don’t always get the chance to do classes with my favorite teachers in their studios – but with GaiamTV .com , I do every day online! I get to try teachers I normally wouldn’t have access to – and now you can, too. The best thing is that you can sign up so easily for a ten day FREE trial at http://www.GaiamTV.com .
So let’s talk summer. Spring has sprung, so it’s time to get serious about bathing suit bodies and skin-baring clothes. The first thing to peek out from your shorts is a great pair of legs. Nothing is better for busting cellulite, creating sexy tone, and losing the thigh jiggle than lunges, lunges, lunges – and oh yes, more lunges. Side lunges to front lunges, and mixing in back lunges. Remember to:
If you’re feeling strong and motivated by Beyonce’s post-baby body and her muscular thighs, do another round of 20 in each direction. The great thing about lunges is you’ll get great benefits even if you do them without weights. So, NO EXCUSES – lunge away while watching TV, lunge away while chatting on the phone with your friend. I guarantee you will see results. If you need extra motivation or more ideas for toned summer legs, try these GaiamTV .com videos:

Boston Body Barre
Zayna Gold, 2012
Zayna leads this 56 minute fully chaptered workout in a nice ballet studio w/ 4 backgrounders. Optional equipment includes a playground ball, a barre or chair, and a band.
Matt: (20 min) Exercises include c curve, bridge variations, & crab tricep dips. Zayna makes good use of the ball to add variety & intensity. Also included is a 6 min stretch.
Barre: (24 min) Exercises include pelvic tuck, pliet varieties, chair pose w/ ball thigh squeezes, a standing donkey kick series, hip shifts & hip circles. I like the unique feel to this workout and the pace is right on.
There is also a 4 min cardio and a 4 min upper body segment included. Exercises include: step touch, toe tap, knee pulls, cross knee pulls with a hop, upper back band pulls and shoulder pinches.
I rate this workout a low intermediate. Zayna is very mellow & down to earth and the variety of music is nice (hip hop to mellow yoga type music). Great for barre fans and some new & unique variations added in to make this a nice addition to your workout library. I received this dvd to review.

DH’s birthday just passed and I got him this amazing Dual Shower Head from EdenFantasys ! I know you probably think of EdenFantasys as a Sex toy shop but yes they also have shower heads (and seriously so much more)!!! And don’t forget that EdenFantasys offers FREE Standard Shipping on orders over $59.00! I LOVE me some free shipping! DH absolutely LOVED his birthday present. And the best part- the Dual Shower Head was super easy to install so I did it myself as a surprise for him! Happy birthday honey!
Review-
Sex in the Shower Dual Shower Head
:
This is the ultimate shower head for couples! It has four separate spray choices so you can find just the right water stream for you and your honey. It is super easy to install- just screw it in after you remove your current shower head. Like I said, I did it myself and had no problems and I am definitely not a handy person, but I didnt want DH to have to install his own birthday present.
While this creates a fun fun couples shower experience, you can also use it alone in the dual or single head position. I really like using both shower heads even when alone- it creates a luxury shower experience like you would get at the spa- but without the spa prices. This Sex in the Shower Dual Shower Head is only $42.00 at EdenFantasys!!! Seriously, DH & I looked at similar dual shower heads at the hardware store and they were $80.00 and MORE! I’m so glad I checked EdenFantays for DH’s birthday present before running out to the hardware store. DH has been wanting a dual shower head for a long time and now he has one!!!
I waited till the last minute to order for DH’s birthday so I was really hoping I would get the package on time. I DID! I should have known EdenFantasys always ships super fast & in discreet packaging so DH had no idea what it was or who it was from!

The Belles are super-excited to tell you about these great products from Navitas Naturals!! “Navitas” is the Latin word for energy and if there is one thing their products provide it is super-food energy. The mission of Navitas naturals mission is to provide premium organic functional foods that increase energy and enhance health. Part of this effort is to continually search for the world’s most beneficial natural foods. Their philosophy is that nutrient rich whole foods are best produced using organic agricultural methods with minimal processing so they handle their premium superfoods with care. Health conscious consumers choose Navitas Naturals nutrient-rich products because they are loaded with antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. Their premium quality “superfoods” are always free of additives and trans fats; the absence of these elements speaking to the purity and effectiveness of the products.
Navitas Naturals Chia Seeds Navitas Naturals offers these small, whole, organic chia seeds in their pure state. Long used by the Aztecs, Mayans, and Incans as a staple food along with corn and beans, chia seeds are enjoying a large resurgence in the health food community due to their impressive nutritional profile. Chock full of healthy omega fats, protein, antioxidants, and dietary fiber, the little chia seed goes a long way to earn its qualifier of “power.”
Ever since I first heard about the nutritional profile of chia seeds, I have been including them as a daily part of my nutrition plan. I throw them in my smoothies, add them to my salads and include them in my oatmeal. My favorite ways to enjoy chia seeds is as a simple chia pudding – which just consists of soaking the chia seeds in some almond milk so they thicken up to form a gel-like substance. I then flavor it with a little vanilla or cinnamon. I also like to add the mixture to my steel cut oatmeal for a well-balanced breakfast.
Navitas Naturals Superfruit Blend
Navitas Naturals Antioxidant Smoothie Mix is a blend of goji, acai, and pomegranate. Rich in essential vitamins, minerals, and a supreme source of antioxidants, these superberries and fruit are each touted as powerful free radical fighters that support vitality. When enjoyed together, such as in Navitas Naturals Antioxidant blend, they provide a diverse mix of nutrients that is superior to consuming any one of them individually. Blend a scoop into your next smoothie and enjoy a delicious drink of health.
This superfruit blend tastes great added to my usual breakfast smoothie. I add a tablespoon along with frozen berries, mangos and peaches; a half a banana, greek yogurt and a a handful of ice. I love knowing that I am getting a healthy breakfast along with healthy antioxidants for more energy and optimum health. I have also added a teaspoon and mixed it in with my afternoon yogurt and added it to my oatmeal.
