As we draw near to the end of our annual smoothie challenge I feel that it is important that I share with you guys some of my go-to resources whenever I am not feeling so creative and need a sure fire bomb smoothie recipe to add to my weekly meal plan. These five  sites are full of epic recipes that are genuinely healthy, easy, and budget friendly. They are consistent in adding new goodies for you to try and are FitXBrit approved! Enjoy!

Well, if you feel like I feel then let’s join her team and enlist her amazing services to make this year the year of our best bodies! As you move forward in your journey to “Live Your Fit” everyday, I felt it would be best to leave you with three benefits of bodyweight training AND one last workout for the road. Most exercises are compound exercises, which are widely considered to favour muscle growth far quicker than isolation exercises. While weight lifting may have a very slight advantage over bodyweight training - in the sense that progression is smoother - bodyweight training makes up for it with its greater variety, and balance, agility, and flexibility gains.”

I've mentioned before that my relationship with yoga has been an ebb & flow for more than a decade -- at times I've latched closely onto the practice, even defined myself by it because I often practiced multiple times a day and felt deeply connected to who I was on the mat. . Other times I strayed from yoga altogether in favor of running, travel, college life, and even in times of sadness where I just couldn't face what I knew would come up on the mat. My body craves it when I wake up in the morning, and in the middle of the day I feel an intense pull to my mat or to a @corepoweryoga class. It clears my head, helps me breathe, gives me the space to let my mind flow wildly the way I know it's meant to, and makes my body feel SO open and so alive. .

A good rule of thumb is to have 1 gram of protein a day per pound of weight you carry. I had the opportunity to try out their products which included the Chocolate Whey Casein Protein, The Pre-Workout, a Fat Burner as well as a really intense 30-day BURN workout. The 30-day workout came right on time, since I had just cancelled my gym membership and have transitioned my 5 a.m. gym workouts to 5 a.m. sessions with my living room floor. and I found myself doing it even when it wasn’t on the calendar if I was incorporating a 2-a day workout into my agenda.
