What a treat to appear on Hallmark's Home and Family with my old friends Mark and Christine.  We talked health and fitness, got everyone SpinGyming and a blast!  Thank you Woody Fraser and Debbie Supnick! Mark Steines Steines was the long standing co-anchor of the number one syndicated entertainment news magazine show “Entertainment Tonight.” Steines has been at the forefront of industry news for over a decade, interviewing hundreds of Hollywood’s biggest stars over the course of his career. Although Steines was flattered to be named to People Magazine’s coveted “Sexiest Men of 2004” roster, as well as one of Men’s Fitness Magazine’s “25 Fittest Men in America," he takes more pride in the journalistic honors and accolades that adorn his shelves. A four-time Emmy nominee and three-time winner, his first came for the KCAL special “Beyond Endurance: Madagascar,” for which he also won the Golden Mic Award; his second came for “Beyond Endurance: Borneo.” He was awarded with a National Iris Award for outstanding reporting and garnered national recognition by the Women’s Sports Foundation for his fair and impartial reporting on the Women’s National Football League.

Skinny is NOT the Goal!

2017-08-12T15:51:51-04:00Tuesday, September 29, 2015|

  Body image - what do you believe you should and perhaps can look like?  Long and lean, toned and strong, bigger, littler - its a bit confusing.  My thought is always health.  Build muscle (not to excess), enjoy cardio like biking and hiking and understand that your body is where you LIVE - and if it breakdowns, where will you go!  Look inside, eat well, drink plenty of water and breathe - the rest will take care of itself! www.ForbesFactor.com  

Jack Lalanne’s Birthday

2017-08-12T15:51:51-04:00Saturday, September 26, 2015|

Jack would have been 101 and he truly believed he could have made it -- he certainly gave it a valiant effort Here are Eight Lessons from the Life and Work of Jack LaLanne... enjoy He bootstrapped himself. A scrawny little kid at 15, he decided to change who he was and how he was perceived, and then he did. The deciding was as important as the doing. He went to the edges. He didn't merely open a small gym, a more pleasant version of a boxing gym, for instance. Instead, he created the entire idea of a health club, including the juice bar. He did this 70 years ago. He started small. No venture money, no big media partners. He understood the power of the media. If it weren't for TV, we never would have heard of Jack. Jack used access to the media to earn trust and to teach. And most of what Jack had to offer he offered for free. He understood the value of attention. He was willing to avoid prime time. Jack never had a variety show on CBS. He was able to change the culture from the fringes of TV. He owned the rights. [...]

The latest craze for women to have a more hour glass figure is waist trainer - have you heard about this?  In the old days women wore corsets and we remember that famous seen from Gone with the Wind (video below)  Well here I am in Bogota, Columbia about to shoot a new infomercial and the owner of the company created a shapewear company called Zlimmy - her and her team tugged me into my first Waist Shaper - I certainly looked all pulled in - but breathing is optional!! WHAT IS WAIST SHAPING Waist training is a gradual process of waist reduction using latex, corsets, or even neoprene wrap around your middle to decrease the measurement. This practice came to prominence during The Victorian times. According to recent studies the more you wear your cinchers/corsets the more effective it will be. Waist reduction and reshaping requires consistency. The best results are achieved with combining the use of this product with a healthy diet plan, drinking 10 glasses of water daily, ensuring you get your 5-a-day small meals and trying to cut out fast food, sugar and unhealthy snacks.

Self Love

2017-08-12T15:51:51-04:00Wednesday, September 16, 2015|

Fall in love with yourself first, determine your own happiness, your own standards on living your life, because you are the gardener of your own soul. And if you’re having a bad day, take a look in the mirror and tell yourself - I love ‘me’ and today I will shine, because I am awesome and I deserve the best.

Our Thoughts

2017-08-12T15:51:51-04:00Friday, September 11, 2015|

  Our life is what our thoughts make it and the blatant truth is that stress doesn't come from external sources like i.e. your work, colleagues, boss, your family or friends, traffic jams, health challenges, or any other circumstances, it simply comes from you, from within, your thoughts about these circumstances.  It is your reaction to these circumstances that can have a negative impact on you, so having a positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events and outcomes and can have extraordinary results, whereas having a negative attitude will create the opposite..My advise, change your thoughts, nurture your mind, say no to all the drama, just stay calm and you will change your world.  

Live Your Own Life

2017-08-12T15:51:51-04:00Wednesday, September 9, 2015|

Always carve out your own path, it is your journey, and yours alone. The universe has no restrictions, it is vast and limitless just like you. You place restrictions on the universe with your own expectations - so let go of any expectations and go with your passions, do what makes your heart sing, what makes you happy and stand firm for what you believe in. By doing so and by having faith and that believe in yourself, you may be pleasantly surprised of what you're capable of....
