Tuesday Tip & Dirty Test Drive.

by

For some reason, even before I started MizFit, I was a collector of tips (mentally. Ive never been close to being organized enough to jot any of these down.). 50% of which I actually tried 50% of which I loved the promise of yet knew Id never motivate. That's this week's theme: The Tried and the Not. The Ive Given This A Shot Now You Go & Test The Other For Me Please. Tried: This tip is ... Continue Reading

Tuesday Test Drive: The MizFit is nothing if not behind the times edition.

by

and honest. let's not forget the honest. Lemmie back up. Once upon a time (let's call it early in the Bush administration) we had a next door neighbor with whom we had very little contact. Our meet-ups were pretty much limited to a few minutes every few days at the mailbox where he'd regale me with tales (if by regale you mean talk at me-----which I do) of his kettlebell exercising in ...

Tues Trend (I hope never catches on) & Test Drive.

by

Yes, People, Im changing things around a bit. Every now & again, when companies wanna send me stuff for your reviewing pleasure, I'm going to have a Tuesday Test Drive piece. Shockingly (*wink*) this concept was not born merely out of my desire for free swag all around. More than a few of the Test Drives will be articles Ive purchased myself & either adored or was sorely ... Continue Reading

Tues Tips. (drumroll….)

by

Please not to fall over in shock but we're actually going to continue yesterday's theme into today. (I know. Only sort of, however, because G-d forbid I become too organized up in herre.) Today's tips are strategies to make the most out of the time you have available to workout. Whether you have all the minutes in the world at your disposal (ahhh---days of yore) or you have only thirty ... Continue Reading

Tues Tip. Rocco style.

by

To know Rocco is .... to know Rocco. Whether you love his style or hate it (he has been described as the illegitimate lovechild of Richard Simmons, Anthony Robbins & Tony Soprano)----there is no denying he is a character. One need merely take a pass through his blog to see clear evidence of that. Havent heard of the personal trainer who is Rocco Castellano? You'd be in the minority. These ... Continue Reading

Tues Tips (sweaty edition)

by

Summer hath arrived with a vengeance where MizFit lives. As as result, I thought Id share some of my fave hot weather finds and you, oh Bumbling Band, could share some of yours in the comments (not so subtle hint from an oh so sweaty mama). First, have you seen this yet? Their promise? WIN Sport Detergent will attack & banish perspiration from high tech exercise clothing (MizFit ... Continue Reading

Tuesday Trends. (it’s a long one, folks. grab a healthy snack and yer water bottle)

Today we are lucky enough to have the amazing Brianna from Balanced Steps seizing the MizFit reigns for a day. I asked her to speak about a subject we are *all* concerned about: childhood obesity. No matter whether you have your own (and really what is this (fingerquote) own (unFQ) thing?! MizFit believes it takes a village to raise a Tornado!) or not---every one of use has a child or ...

subtitle: stuff from the comments which many might have missed. subsubtitle: this mightcould look like a lazyMizFit's blog post, but I went back this weekend, cut & pasted all these into a document for myself, & figured Id prod remind you to as well... From Bag Lady (with regards to bean consumption) if you are preparing dried beans yourself, add a teaspoon of baking soda when you ... Continue Reading

Tues Tip.

by

Subtitle: it's random tip day up in herre! Ive got a few to start us off (and yes. then it is your turn. in the comments. so get ready.) 1. line your steamer with lettuce leaves as it makes for faster clean-up. this is such an obvious one yet took me ages to figure out. Back in the day when I competed, I steamed a crapload lot of chicken & hated every minute of it. For me it wasnt ... Continue Reading

Tues Trends

by

This week I wanna talk about a trend. As in a trend Ive noticed and a trend I trendmendously dislike. A little while ago Zandria did a fantastic post (and sparked some interesting comments) about fitness magazines & whether they make us feel better or worse about ourselves. For me (the short version. I rambled a smidge in her comment section) the answer is neither. They dont impact ... Continue Reading
