A personal trainer and fitness blogger has shown how manipulative those advertisements for crazy supplements and quick weight loss plans can be. In just 15 minutes, Mel of MelVFitness, shows how she managed to lose 15 pounds. Well, at least how to make it look like you've shed the weight.

Today I was so stressed out, I broke away from work for a while and went to Advanced Fitness Solutions and had Scott (one of the trainers there) help me do a relaxation workout. I don't think it's actually called that. But, that is how it felt...

I don't know how much you can bench press . . . but I'm pretty sure I would have trouble benching 187 pounds right now.  Which officially means I'm weaker than a man who was born when Warren Harding was president.

If you're looking for an extremely un-challenging workout where you also look like an idiot, check out the YouTube video for something called "Prancercising."

You probably have heard me talk about my new Salsa Dance Class I'm taking! It's so much fun! I'm just a beginner, but it's such great exercise and it's FUN! Here is a video of my dance teacher Dana and her husband Christian. They are simply incredible...

This female athlete is so amazing! This is incredible! < object>

Okay I promise I won't post EVERYDAY that I go. But, it was kinda cool today when we hiked Badger Mountain in the snow! I took a bunch of pics this morning! It was an awesome way to start the day! If you have never done it...You may want to re-consider...

Okay so today I got up real early and hiked the back side of Badger Mountain with my two dogs and a friend and it WAS AWESOME! I can see why people love to do that! What a great way to start the day! It was real foggy and cloudy and kind of misty out but it was actually very pleasant...

It's hard to stay motivated to exercise all winter! I have a gym membership, and I try to walk/Run every other day because  I have to keep my new Rhodesian Ridgeback Pup from tearing the house to pieces! My dog Crystal needs exercise as well...

I watched this and it made me cry! What an amazing amount of strength this man has! It makes me so happy to see someone work so hard and become something more! Sometimes it's easy to feel powerless. We have to remember that we have an immense amount of power within ourselves to change our circumstances and our life...

I love it when people get &quot;inspired&quot; to do great things for themselves!We all have times when we slack and let go of the things we think are important!  I for one find it difficult to stay motivated consistently. I recently went through a break up so when I'm feeling a little disheartened, I find it difficult to eat...

A friend invited me to Krav Maga Tri-Cities Last night, and I have to say...it was very interesting! I guess it is what the Israeli Military teach and now is the preferred system for U.S. Military and law enforcement!
