Fitness Apps for Your Phone or Tablets


HI EVERYONE!

Sorry I have been absent for so long!  I hope everyone is having a great day! 

During my tooth and jaw dilemma I ignored my New Year’s resolution or goal to become more active.  Shame on me.  But I have a new found resolve thanks to my new phone app.  In the summer and fall I used my FitBit bracelet but after a few months I couldn’t get it to charge anymore.  But it helped me learn the walking distance or routine I needed to do to attain eight to ten thousand steps.

Now, I have an app that came with my new Iphone 6 plus.  I really love this phone.  I never fell in love with my Iphone 5 by the way.  Loved the 4.  I digress.  I was talking about the health app.  It tracks my steps and miles.  You do have to carry it with you but don’t we all carry our phones with us anyway?  In the summer I will have to find something to wear that has a pocket.  For now I am wearing a jacket or coat because the weather has been crazy!  Brrrr….  Below I have taken a screen shot of one day I walked 6422 steps.  It will tell you the steps you took for the day and the distance.  It also breaks it up by the week and by the month.  

 


 It even registers my jumps on my Urban Rebounder!




There are many, many fitness apps out there now.  Check the out if you want to have something that motivates you to move more.

 Thank you for taking the time to read my blogs. 
I really appreciate it.

Number Two of My 14 Favorites from 2014

Number Two of My 14 Favorites from 2014



Hi Everyone!  Everyone was challenged on YouTube by Nathalie, TheBeautyDiva to come up with their favorite 14 items of 2014.  Most of mine were not makeup since I had just started my channel and had already talked about all my favorite makeup items.  So I decided to come up with a list of items that I used every day or that I would quickly replace if lost or broken. 

Nathalie's channel link:  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkcX8qhD0hAYUMHb8bti9HA

I thought I would make a daily blog of each item one by one.


#2.  AeroPilates

My second favorite item for 2014 was my AeroPilates Machine.  I have had it for several years now.  When I first received it I was about 35 pounds heavier.  Since you have to “pull” your own weight it was much more difficult for me then.  Now, I am accustomed to using it but I still “feel” the workout each time.  And if I do the workout every day I really feel like my muscles are toned and stretched at the same time.  It is especially good for the core muscles. 
I prop mine up against a wall of my extra bedroom so it doesn't take up much space at all when not in use.




I highly recommend getting this machine or any machine that you will be inspired to use every day.  I bought my AeroPilates from QVC. I did not buy the most expensive version.  I started with this one and told myself I can always trade up at a later date.  But this one is still going strong.

Have Fun On This Road of Life!!
