Feel the DailyBurn
I'm becoming a big fan of DailyBurn — a website that lets its users track workout, diet, and health goals in easy-to-read charts and graphs. There's a ton of great health and fitness information on the site and it has a social side that lets users interact with other members.
If you're not very tech savvy, don't be afraid.
Is Your Beach Clean?
Beach time is fast approaching. Yay! Unfortunately not all beaches are clean all the time.
Hump Day: I Have Little Desire to Have Sex Anymore
Welcome to Hump Day, TrèsSugar's sex advice column. Are you confused about sex? Do you have trouble having an orgasm?
Celebs Like to Shake It
At first, the Power Plate seems like another gimmicky weight-loss product, but its website features endorsements from fit celebs like Madonna, Courteney Cox, and Hilary Swank. On top of that, it's used by over 60 college and pro sports teams, and the Police brought one with them on their reunion tour. That's some serious celeb street cred.
Snickers Energy Bars?
Clif, Balance, and Luna are a few of my favorite brands when choosing energy bars, but the popular packed-with-peanuts candy bar company wants to get in on the action too with their Snickers Marathon bars. I know what you're thinking. Snickers?
GymPost Finds Fitness Centers Near You
Tis' the season to want to get in shape and although I'm already participating in the EA Sports Active Fitness Challenge, I don't think it hurts to make regular trips to the gym, too. I already have a gym membership, but sometimes I like to check out other gyms and switch it up a bit. A site called GymPost will show you all of the sport centers and fitness centers in your area (it includes cities in both the US and Canada) by simply entering your location.
Website of the Day: Walk Jog Run
With Summer quickly approaching, many of us will soon be slipping into skirts, sundresses, and dreaded — bikinis! If you're planning on getting your exercise on, a site called Walk Jog Run will help you map out a walking/running route, tell you how far the route is and what speed you need to go to burn a certain amount of calories.
It's really easy to use.
Healthy App: Slim Down Shopping List
If you have an iPod Touch or iPhone, I hope you're taking advantage of all the great health and fitness apps available. I just downloaded a new healthy app from Women's Health — the Slim Down Shopping List. It is cool, easy to use, and best of all it's free!
Healthy Eating Tip: Join a CSA
With local and organic food having such a high price tag, it can be hard to eat in a sustainable way. One way I've gotten around the high costs is by joining a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture). The idea of a CSA is pretty simple — consumers pay farmers directly for a portion of their crop.
10 Areas of Government With the Greatest Job Growth
Working for the government used to elicit groans of expectant dullness, but times have changed. Instead of criticizing working for the ultimate Man, Uncle Sam, more people are drawn to the secure nature of working for the federal government. According to a new report from the nonprofit Partnership for Public Service, the federal government will have hired 273,000 new workers by Fall of 2012 for jobs the group calls "mission critical" — that's a 41 percent hiring increase over the three previous fiscal years.
