Introducing Vapur Bottles!!!!

Introducing a fantastic earth-friendly Anti-Bottle company: Vapur!  



Since toting a bulky reusable water bottle can be a hassle (especially when empty),  the ultra-durable Vapur Anti-Bottle is designed “fold-and-go” anywhere – easily fitting into pockets, purses and packs. The flexible, reusable Anti-Bottle also uses less energy to make and transport than traditional rigid bottles. Now that's a refreshing idea we can all drink to! The Vapur Anti-Bottle stands up when full and when you're done, it lays, rolls, or folds completely flat! Perfect for packing in your luggage!





Vapur Anti-Bottles are:
BPA Free
Washable
Foldable
Freezable
Re-usable
Cleanable
Convenient
Do not leach flavors or colors
Dishwasher safe!



I honestly HATE packing my big ol' water bottle around with me everywhere I go- but I do anyways since Im always drinking my water :) When a normal bottle is empty- you now are stuck lugging the empty bottle around! Well not with Vapur- just fold it up and tuck in in your pocket. I love the attachable clip- making it easy to clip on your bag or backpack. There is also a strip you can write your name on so you know which Vapur bottle is yours! See how flat they roll or fold up? Fabulous, space saving! Great to tuck in your bag when going on a road trip, cruise, exercise class, you name it! 


Every year, 200 billion bottles of water are consumed globally. Unfortunately, only about 12% of these will be recycled, leaving 176 billion plastic bottles to be dumped in landfills or left to float in the ocean. We need to STOP buying bottled water! Grab your Vapur and fill it at home to bring with you! Available in .5 L and .4 L and a wide variety of colors & designs, Vapur has something for every member of your family!


Vapur is committed to raising awareness about the global water crisis and empowering people to make a difference through their own purposeful drinking choices. They have joined the 1% For The Planet program, giving a portion of all Vapur sales to water-related causes. They are also working with charitable groups around the world to help make disposable bottles obsolete and clean water more available than ever. LOVE that Vapur is environmentally conscience!!!!


In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Vapur is contributing $3 of every "Pink Ribbon" Anti-Bottle™ sold to Catwalk for a Cure. Each “Pink Ribbon” Anti-Bottle also comes with a decorative dishwasher-safe pink ribbon sticker! With this Anti-Bottle you’ll be doing doubleduty, saving the planet and the tatas!

REVIEW: Brazilian Dance Workout Featuring Vanessa Isaac



Today's Review: Brazilian Dance Workout
Vanessa Isaac, 2005

This is a 60 minute Brazilian dance workout led by Vanessa in an outdoor setting, lots of lovely greenery in the background. Vanessa and a group of background exercisers workout barefoot with a live drum circle. You wont need any equipment for this workout. The dvd offers a percussion mix, and the workout is divided into two segments that are put together at the end for a nice Brazilian dance routine.

The moves are shown/ done at a normal pace, then Vanessa breaks them down at 1/2 time so you can learn the move and then you repeat at the normal pace. You learn a dance move, then add on another & repeat until you are performing an entire dance routine! Dance moves include: chest pops, box step, dancy double side step w/ over & around arms, up & back steps, shimmy, kick ball change, and other dance moves.

I would rate this workout an intermediate in terms of choreography & low intermediate in terms of aerobic intensity. Vanessa does a great job of breaking down the moves but keeping the workout moving along. The pace is fast so you will raise your heartrate more so than other dance workouts I have done. I like Vanessa as a lead and would recommend this w/o to those that like dance and for a lighter day. I received this dvd to review.

Love that they don't add sugar (calories), salt (sodium), or artificial flavors that their delicious peanut butter does NOT need. Perfect as is and so good for you!

Piloxing Express Toning DVD Review




Piloxing Express Toning
Viveca Jensen, 2011
Viveca leads this 56 minute toning workout in a cute grey gym with purple accents. She works out with 2 background exercisers. You will need optional weighted gloves (light dumbbells would also work) for the upper body segment. This dvd includes Arms, Butt & Thighs, and Abs section. You can play all or skip to the next section with your remote.
Arms: The addition of weighted gloves and/or light hand weights really makes this a tough but fun upper body workout. Exercises include: bicep curl variations, long arm wrist flexion, tri kickbacks, long arm tri work, back fly, 1 arm side tri pushups, and elevator planks. Viveca includes tempo changes to keep your muscles guessing.
Butt & Thighs: This is a floor work section- I started with ankle weights & ended up taking them off as my buns & thighs were on fire! Exercises include: donkey kick variations including side kicks, crossovers, extensions, and long leg kicks. Bridge work including: bridge squeezes, butterfly, and single leg bridge variations.
Abs: This is a floor section that really hits the core. Exercises include: V sit w/ arm pump, V drops, V punch & twists, full V sit w/ legs extended, crunch variations, long leg bicycle, wide leg scissor crunches, plank, plank knee pull and a  side knee pull plank.
I would rate this is a high intermediate workout as my lower body was BURNING by the end! I found this dvd to be unique and fun and I think I’ll be feeling it tomorrow. Viveca has a great energy and her cuing and form pointers are fantastic. She does a great job of including unique twists on tried & true toning exercises- love that little to no equipment is required. Received this dvd to review.

Exhale Core Fusion Pure Strength Review

Today's Review: Exhale Core Fusion Power Sculpt
Fred DeVito and Elisabeth Halfpapp, 2011


This is a flowing pilates/ yoga vinyassa routine that adds in light dumbbell strength moves to intensify your workout. The dvd contains five 10 minute workouts and a bonus stretch segment. Fred & Elisabeth each lead some of the workout segments. They workout with 3 background exercisers, 1 providing modifications in a nice open studio.You will only need light dumbbells for these workouts. You can play all or select a workout from the main menu. 


Power Fusion: Elisabeth adds strength work into this flowing vinyassa routine. Exercises include cat/cow, down dog, yoga stretches, side plank adding hip drops and dumbbell raises.


Strength Flow: Fred adds strength work into this flowing vinyassa routine. Exercises include: pushups, plank, up & down dog, weighted arm circles, weighted ab twists, warrior & overhead tricep press, & weighted twisted chair.


Power Flow: Elisabeth leads this steady pace vinyasa routine that adds upper body strength exercises while holding various warrior poses. Other exercises include: pushups, up & down dog, & triangle. 


Strength & Balance: Elisabeth leads this strength focused workout and adds in some great balance challenges to the work. Exercises include: pliet & overhead press, side lunge -upright row & lat pull- front raise, tree pose & bicep curls, balance stick & row, and a seated hip & low back stretch.


Abs & Glutes: Fred leads this section and includes a lot of tough ab work. You are contracting your abs for almost the duration! Exercises include: c curve adding a twist, leg drops, yoga bike, and a unique donkey kick series with a dumbbell behind your knee.


Bonus Stretch: Fred & Elisabeth work out together in this segment (no b/g'ers). They add light dumbbells to enhance the yoga & athletic style stretches. 


Both Fred & Elisabeth provide excellent cuing & form pointers in these segments. These are great workouts for those that like pilates & yoga but want to up the intensity a bit with hand weights. As with all Exhale workouts- they include a lot of effective and unique exercises that work the muscles without over taxing them. I rate these intermediate routines- and the Abs & Glutes section a high intermediate or low advanced. I received this dvd to review.

GIVEAWAY: Miss Oops JAKs- T-Shirt Extender





Miss Oops manufactures and markets a variety of beauty-saving, problem-solving products for women. The Miss Oops brand comprises of several patent-pending products, including a dry sponge that removes deodorant marks and a medical-grade adhesive that prevents pregnant women’s navels from showing through their garments. The mission of Miss Oops is to provide affordable solution-oriented products for all types of beauty dilemmas and avoidable fashion faux pas for women everywhere.

Miss Oops has generously offered one lucky winner a JAKs in the size & color of their choice! 


What do I do my best at trying to avoid? Creating a Fashion Faux-Pas! That's why I LOVE my Miss Oops JAKs! JAKs are an absolute must for women who are not willing to give up their low-rise jeans and partake in “mom jeans.” JAKS are worn over jeans and under tops—much like a shirt extender. It appears to be a lace camisole layered underneath your shirt- but actually, JAKs ares the latest fashion weapon used to cover up butt-crack and muffin tops. Bend over and sit down ladies – JAKs have you covered!.  If you are ordering JAKs for a bathing suit cover up, order one size larger.  Unless your hips are the same size as your waist. Miss Oops manufactures and markets a variety of beauty-saving, problem-solving products for women. The Miss Oops brand consists of several patent-pending products, including a dry sponge that removes deodorant marks and a medical-grade adhesive that prevents pregnant women’s navels from showing through their garments. The mission of Miss Oops is to provide affordable solution-oriented products for all types of beauty dilemmas and avoidable fashion faux pas for women everywhere.



I had the pleasure of reviewing a Miss Oops JAKs and I LOVE IT!!!! Its super cute, super sylish, goes great with a tee shirt, tank top, polo, or dressy top! JAKs are worn for the look of layering without all the bulk and straps on top. They are shaped like a tube top, but worn around the waist to give you any desired length you want you undershirt to be! JAKs stay put where you like them to be. Wear your undershirt just over the top of your pants, or long over leggings to give you a comfortable, fashionable look. Add length to any shirt! JAKs are perfect to add length to those slightly outdated tops you have (that are just a bit too short for today's styles) but cant bear to part with. With JAKs- you don't have to- slip on your JAKs and keep the (slightly too short) top! And a more flattering look.



I LOVE the look of layering and love extending the length of my shirts but lets be honest, most of us don't need the extra bulk of an additional layer. And its HOT here- virtually year round- I definatley dont need the warmth of another shirt. I also LOVE to wear my JAKs with my exercise clothes to add a stylish splash of color to my plain black outfits. JAKs are the perfect economical way to maximize your wardrobe and add variety without having to purchase a bunch of new clothes! Just add your JAKs to any outfit to create a whole new look! And great to wear over a swimming suit as a halter top to cover up a bit :)


Head on over to Miss Oops for all your beauty mishap needs! Or win your own JAKs here!
