Guest post from my friends over at College Candy!
Women are always complaining about making daytime clothes appropriate for nighttime extravaganzas, but HELLO! Making sweaty sports clothes look appropriate, and even stylish, for school is a much harder challenge. Thankfully, it’s totally possible.
As all you fitness-conscious ladies know, there’s practically no time to change between class and practice (and if there is, you know that going home to change means you’ll sit down on the couch, catch something good on TV and never get up again) which means you gotta find some clothes that do double duty. And designers like Puma make it so much easier with adorable workout wear that works both on the elliptical and in the classroom.
Check out their list of top favorites!

Hardcore trainer Jillian Michaels from the hit show “The Biggest Loser” is not slowing down these days. With her commitment to helping the extremely overweight and with the success of her workout dvd’s, Jillian is continuing to promote fitness and health while fighting nationwide obesity. Jillian Michaels shares some of her secrets to building up your confidence and body.
1. Don’t take it easy on yourself! She surely is an advocate for pushing your workouts to the limit.
“One of my trainers beats the crap out of me; he’s the incarnation of my karma. We do everything from explosive kettlebell to hoisting 100-pound punching bags over my head to running up stairs with 100 pounds over my head two at a time,” Michaels says. “Sledgehammer workouts, throwing boulders—this guy is insane.” Whew!
2. Do what you hate! I hate working out but I do it to stay healthy. She hates certain workouts too but she commits to it and doesn’t give up. How else can she maintain that super fit body!
“Calisthenics, sprints, speed agility, quickness drills—it’s so tedious and so monotonous and I hate every second of it,” confesses Michaels.
3. Get rock-hard abs without crunches. This is so true! Crunches alone will not give you flat abs. Truth is we all have abs but no one can see it unless we remove the layers of fat surrounding it. The best way to get rock-hard abs is major cardio and diet.
“I never isolate my abdominals,” she says. “It’s all high-energy training, body weight, core multiple muscle groups and a really clean, clean diet. It’s not one move.”
4. Pay attention to your diet! I try to stay a way from high calorie and processed foods and include good carbs and protein into my diet. I also drink plenty of water.
“The key is body fat,” instructs Michaels. “You need to shed body fat, so cut out processed foods. Cut out alcohol whenever possible. Keep your water level really high so you’re not retaining.”

Happy Friday! I have a special treat for you today. That’s right a Giveaway!! Sorry it has been a while since the last giveaway back in August; but, no worries because there are even more giveaways this month so keep reading. 
Okay…. back to this wonderful giveaway.
Total Activation: The New 5 Step Fitness Mantra is a health and wellness book written by physical therapist and fitness trainer, Nitin Chhoda. Total Activation takes a new total body approach to weight loss and fitness for America. Instead of focusing on just the physical body, Nitin incorporates Indian philosophies such as yoga (which I love) to help others live a healthier lifestyle.
In the book, he compares American lifestyle to Indian lifestyle across 5 dimensions of wellness. These 5 dimensions are also known as the EPSSI fitness equation where one improves their (E) emotional, (P) physical, (S) social, (S) spiritual, (I) intellectual health and transform their life. In the book, he reveals the secrets to weight loss, diet, and wellness which allows Indians to stay healthy and fit.
Nitin Choda book is recently endorsed by the famed fitness trainer from “The Biggest Loser” on NBC, Jillian Micheals. He’s also been featured on “Martha Stewart Living Radio”, and seen in “Elle India”, and “Self” magazines.
Staying in shape has always been important to me and is vital for living a stronger and healthier life. It should be the same for you too which is why I am promoting this book and giveaway.
So, I’m giving away this book to one lucky reader. To enter the giveaway, fill out the form below. For more information on Nitin Chhoda’s “Total Activation” book, please visit: www.totalactivationbook.com.
