Fitness Instructors: Ripped or Average?
If you like to take fitness classes like Pilates, aerobics, or kickboxing, I'm sure you've had your fair share of instructors. Does it matter to you what they look like? I have to say that although it's inspirational to see a strong and muscular instructor, it's a little intimidating.
Ever Thought About Becoming a Personal Trainer?
When you spend a lot of time at the gym, you get to know your way around. You learn how to use all the equipment, and you take classes or have sessions with a personal trainer to learn all the killer strength training moves. I'm wondering, after spending so much time becoming fit, have you ever thought about becoming a personal trainer or fitness instructor to inspire others to be strong and healthy?
DVD Review: Daily Energy — Vinyasa Flow Yoga
It's no lie that Shiva Rea is one of my yoga idols. Considered one of the best Vinyasa yoga instructors due to her calming energy and challenging sequences of postures, Shiva has created a new DVD. You know I was excited to try it.
Speak Up: Fitness Instructors That Yell to Motivate
Sometimes when I hit a mental block while working out, a few strong words of encouragement such as, "Don't give up," or "Just two more reps," or "Jump a little higher," are definitely appreciated. I always end up feeling so proud for pushing myself a little harder, and without the fitness instructor or personal trainer's inspirational nudge, I don't think I would have been able to get there.
Some instructors can be a little more forceful or overbearing though.
Katie and Her Cross-Dressing Boys Dress Up Jordan Style!
Wow! Katie Price must be a master of persuasion, as she got four of her closest men to dress up in various trademark Jordan outfits for the launch of her latest book Standing Out: My Look, My Style, My Life at Selfridges in London this afternoon. Kate's boyfriend Alex Reid swapped his usual Roxanne persona to copy Kate's gold outfit from Ibiza, and Kate's riding instructor Andrew Gould fittingly dressed up in her KP Equestrian launch outfit.

Couples Retreat: Not Exactly a Relaxing Getaway
Everyone loves a vacation, right? Beautiful scenery, tropical drinks, fun in the sun. Add a few of your closest friends and you could have the trip of a lifetime — or a romantic getaway gone horribly awry.
You Asked: Bad to Leave Yoga Class Early?
Dear Fit,
I've been taking a yoga class for about a year with this amazing instructor. We're always trying new poses and I'm soaked with sweat by the end from moving around so much. Plus the next day, I'm really sore so I know I'm working hard.
You Asked: Issue With Inversions
Hi Fit,
I have been practicing yoga on my own for years, and I love it all . . .
Halle Berry Has It in the Bag
Halle Berry held her purse over her stomach yesterday afternoon after lunch in LA. Everyone's all aflutter at the possibility of Halle and Gabriel expecting another child, and her recent tendency to cover her tummy and wear baggy clothes isn't doing much to cool off all the speculation. One thing that doesn't fit with the pregnancy theories is Halle's interest in an upcoming movie about a diving instructor — wearing a wetsuit under the sea seems like a difficult thing to do with a growing baby bump.
