Healthy Makeover: Morning Glory Muffins

Morning glory muffins contain everything I love: pineapple, carrots, raisins, cinnamon...the list could go on.  But when I saw a package in the store with a whooping 450 calories and 22g of fat, I could feel a challenge coming on.

I knew I could make a healthier version will all the delicious flavours sans the calories and fat.

5 Reasons to Take a Spinning Class

I taught a spinning class this morning for the first time in almost a year.

It felt glorious.

Ditching Your To-Do List

Last week was pretty stressful.

You know those kind of weeks where everything seems to happen all at once.

As a result, many of my big plans fell by the waist side.

• I only got two posts up instead of four.  
• I didn't get to try the new healthy makeover I was working on.  
• My 5 planned workouts turned into one
• My new website remains unfinished

60 Minute Workout: Power Circuit

You know I am a big fan of interval and circuit training.

The great thing about it is that no matter how much time you have, you know you are going to get an intense workout.

I have called today's routine a "60 minute workout", but truthfully, it is an "any time workout".  If you only have 20 minutes, simply do the circuit once.  If you have 40 minutes, do it twice.

You are still going to reap all of the benefits and feel great when you are done.

Check out the end of the post for some links to exercises you may not be familiar with. (and always check with your doctor before you start a new exercise program.)

Friday Favourites: Spring Drinks

I realised this week that I talk a lot about food on this blog, but not as much about beverages (both non-alcoholic and alcoholic).

This is a true tragedy as I am missing out on some really great creating, mixing and gulping opportunities.

Well, today I am going to remedy that problem and share with you some yummy (non-alcoholic) drinks I am come across this week. I'll save the alcoholic ones for next time.

My Chocolate Peppermint Latte would taste great on the rocks. :)
