Skechers Performance Division

last Tuesday evening my gym instructor gave an awesome class.

She wrote down, on a black board, what specific exercise we were required to do…

30 jumping squats,

30 push ups,

30 over head presses,

Push  45 weight  across the gym floor, twice,

Walking squats across the gym floor, twice,

There were more but I cannot remember all of them, I just did as I was told and kept on moving, till I completed the list.   Of course it had to be completed twice.

Once is never enough at the gym.

I have to say I completed all required exercise before any other person in the class.  Don’t tell anyone but I am the oldest one in her class.  Shhhhh!

I was feeling the sweat running down my back.  UGH! I felt so good that I had accomplished such a hard class.

Then this Tuesday my instructor handed me a plastic bag with this pink, flat, bottle.  She said it was a prize for being the first to finish all assigned exercises.  I looked at her and said, “I had no idea that I was in a competition.”
Anyway, this pink plastic bottle looked weird. Until I opened it and realized how cool it really was. get-attachment (2)It was flat as a pancake.  get-attachment

But when I filled it up with water it stood up on its own.  I loved it!  Now this flat pink water bottle comes with me to the gym.

How cool and different this bottle is.  It is light even when the water is in it.  I am so glad I don’t have to lug any more water canisters or plastic water bottles…thanks Sketchers Performance Division you really have done it!

Hmm, I wonder what gift she will be giving out next time.  Hope it is a pair of Skecher sneakers, I could really use them.

HydraFacial – Must Have

I am saying goodbye to facials and hello to HydraFacial.

HydraFacial takes facials to a whole new level.  HydraFacial is a non surgical procedure that instantly gives your face a whole new life.

When I had my first HF I could not believe my face.  It looked bright and really brand new.  I was so happy.  Instant result!

HydraFacials provide cleansing, exfoliation, acid peel, extraction, hydartion, protection.  I recently had my second HF and got the same results as the first one I had.

If you have not had a Hydrafacial you need to get one.

Here is the machine that does it all.

HydraFacial helps fade away brown spots. Something I have and need to get rid of.

I  say,   “Once you’ve experienced a Hydrafacial you will never go back to that same old facial treatment again.”

Cannot wait for my next HF.

The Ugly Mittens That Saved Winter – Alki’i Suede Palm 3M Thinsulate

mittens

My 2015 New Year Resolution is to walk to work and back everyday when possible. That’s 30 minutes one way twice a day, so long as it is not raining. Even though is is pretty cold in the a.m. here in NY I start to warm up after 5 minutes of brisk walking. Except for my hands, just cannot  get them warm, until I got these Alki’i Thermal Mittens. Now my hands are warm and they stay warm as long as I am walking to and from work. I admit they are not the prettiest mittens in town, but they do their job.  Happy!!
