There is much buzz surrounding the waist trainers and corsets. It’s a new, and well received, way of reducing the waistline and helping tone your midsection. The main idea is to wear the corset/waist trainer during your workouts, and it’ll begin to help target those core muscles between your hips and ribcage.

With the holidays approaching, all I can think about is all the baking I want to do. From cookies to gingerbread, to fruitcake to all things chocolate, being in the kitchen is definitely one of my favourite things about the lead up to Christmas. This year, don’t let your weight loss goals deter you from enjoying (and making) all your favorite holiday treats. Instead, try some of these substitutions and alterations and you’ll never know the difference!

Do you ever think about your adrenal glands? Probably not. But you probably should. Because those pesky pounds that don’t seem to be going anywhere with your fitness routine and healthy diet may indeed be hanging on because of adrenal related issues.

It’s easy to get off track over the holidays – lots of food, (both healthy and unhealthy), lots of eating opportunities, mixed with people you haven’t seen in a long time and someone who seems to endlessly refill your glass, even when you don’t ask for it.

So you’re ready to take the plunge and start running. Maybe even sign up for a race and reach your goal of running a half marathon. Before you can start your race training plan, you need to lay a solid foundation and reach a base level of fitness so you will be successful in your training and not get sick or injured. This is called base training.
