Feeling Happier and Healthier With FeelinGirl

Stress is something that I think everyone has right now. It's hard to not feel it when many people's lives have been altered. A simple hiccup in your and my routine has an impact in how we feel. If you watch the news it's both good and bad. Good because you know more of what's going on. Bad because much of it is negative. Then people disagree. It's good to find ways to combat those negative vibes.

How do you stay feeling more positive? 

1. Exercise - Even if it's as simple as going for a walk


2. Read - Something short and motivating


3. Clean - It helps to get just one medium to big project done a day


4. Create - Paint, craft, make up the words to a preexisting song


5. Relax - Take a shower, or take a bath


6. Drink - Up your intake of water, find a relaxing tea you like, and have one small glass of wine a day if it's something you can drink


7. Routine - If you used to get up at a certain time, still do that

I just started working from home. It's a transition, for sure. At lunch time I'm used to going for a half hour walk. When I'm at home I find that getting lunch ready for the family is my number one priority. It's important to take care of myself. My family is all old enough to take care of themselves. I need to keep going for a walk, wearing a shapewear panty. We all should break up our day with some form of exercise. 

As many of you know my sister Terra is pregnant. She's over half way through the pregnancy. So far she is really healthy. The girl does not go anywhere. I really like that FeelinGirl has Mama Maternity Pregnancy Shapewear Mid Thigh Shaper. She could wear this at home, to exercise. I think it is stylish, sexy, and comfortable looking. 

I do not wear leggings all the time. With exercise FeelingGirl has the best leggings for women! My husband likes ones that still show my belly button. I'm more of a fan of the high waist ones. They stay up! What type do you prefer?  

FeelinGirl also has add ons to help with weight loss. I simply love the red color. My mid section is where I need to loose weight the most. They have many others to choose from. 

What are some ways you combat stress?

Strength Stack 52 Complete Pack Review

Since we're no longer Y members, due to finances, I'm trying to find new ways to exercise at home. Thankfully I've kept my weight off. I just got Strength Stack 52 Complete Pack to review! You can purchase this complete pack on Amazon for $89.81, but it's on sale for $48.87.

At the Y they had a similar 1 die that had an exercise, and another with a number. We used to roll both dice, do whatever it said (such as jumping jacks), and do it how ever many times that it said. With Strength Stack 52 Complete Pack they have way more options. The set comes with 5 dice that has all kinds of exercises, and another die that tells you how many to do of that exercise.

The boys love this. I happened to get bicycle kicks, Isaak got jumping jacks, and Mica got flutter kicks. There are a few things I had to look up online. I wasn't sure what a mason twist was. The boys can't complain about what exercise they have to do because they rolled the dice.

About:

Created by military fitness expert and scientist Sergeant Michael Volkin and used by the US Army in Iraq, Strength Stack 52 was scientifically designed for achieving elite fitness anywhere with no equipment in the most efficient way possible. I love that we can do these exercises anytime, anywhere.
Strength Stack 52 is a bodyweight exercise card game. Play the game; get a great workout. You will never do the same workout twice. If the kids say, "I'm bored!" I can pull out this game. The variety maximizes muscle confusion and increases strength gains.  Most importantly, it’s fun and motivating.

The Deck Below Gives Tips:

• Drink Water Before a Meal - To fill full faster.

• Activate Your Glut-4 - Do 60 seconds of exercise before a meal, and 90 minutes after eating to help your food go towards the muscle cells over the fat cells.

• Drank Too Much Alcohol - Having more than a couple alcoholic drinks in 1 week is hard to burn off. Drink in moderation. Obviously the kids won't be drinking alcohol, but we drink every once in awhile.

All these cards have + points, and - points. There's way more cards in the deck. I just gave you 3 examples.

The other decks below are more exercise related. They explain what the exercise does for you.

Games can be played in as little as 5 minutes. If you can find 5 minutes a few a day, you can be fit, lean, and strong. Play by yourself or play with your friends and family. Challenge and motivate each other. Get fit and strong together.

You control the difficulty. There are cards for beginners, and the most difficult cards will challenge even the elite. The exercises are easy to learn. Each card has a picture, written description, and a QR code/link to a video of Sergeant Volkin demonstrating the exercise. There's also a lot of videos on their website that you can just check out.

I'm glad I got this set. It doesn't take up a lot of room, and it's fun to make exercise into a game, instead of a chore that no one wants to do.

What kind of exercises do you enjoy doing?

Fit Evolution Steel Strong DVD Review

It's difficult this time of year to get motivated to exercise. Just a month ago I was hiking. Now it's cold, and snowy.

I love DVDs that the whole family, or just I can work out to. Fit Evolution Steel Strong is a perfect DVD to get moving to.

About Fit Evolution Steel Strong:

• The actor and director is Reaghan Hayden.  

• I love that this DVD can be done anywhere, and anytime.

• There is no equipment needed. There is no excuses to not exercise. 

• It's a 6 week program. I haven't done them all.

• There are 12 workouts all less than 15 minutes. Since I'm a mom I don't always have tons of time to workout. This is ideal for busy schedules. 

• It's $39.99 on Amazon. 

I've had a chance to work out to Fit Evolution Strong a handful of times. I look nothing like Reaghan Hayden. I'm hoping to get more fit by keeping up the DVD. 

It's hard getting good photos this time of year. It's dark when I leave in the morning, and dark when I get home. This weekend snowed, so it was dark all weekend to. 

There's jumping jacks, crunches, squats, and more exercises to keep you going.

The boys were doing exercises to. Mica tells Isaak, "No you're not doing it right." I'm sure I'll get corrected at times to.

Here's a sneak peak of the DVD:

I love that anyone can workout to this DVD. It's for beginners to more advanced fit. There is motivational quotes to keep you moving.

What are you waiting for get fit!
