Addicted To My Brookstone Projection Clock!

For the past few years, I have had a projection clock that shows me the time on the ceiling above the bed at night.  It started with not being able to see the clock across the room without putting on my glasses (and that is just no fun) in the […]

Amy Mac Reviews the Wii Fit

Posted by amy in Episodes, Fit Life

The Nintendo Wii has been a huge success and its not just for gamers.  Of all the gaming consoles out there, the Wii has been the most popular with families.  I know from experience how much fun it can be and yet I wanted to put it to the test of being more than just a good time.  With the $90 purchase of the Wii Fit, I wondered if my exercise world would be turned upside down.  Balance tests, yoga, skiing, soccer, hula hooping, strength training and aerobics are all offered in this game and I wanted to know if it really would be the end of ‘working out’ and the beginning of ‘playing around’ to lose weight.  There are pros and cons to everything and all of that is discussed in this Fit Life video.  I’m a newbie to this whole Wii Fit thing, so I’ve got lots to learn and discover and I’ll keep you posted along the way!

What do you think about the Wii Fit?  Post a comment and let me know!

I Want a Great Butt!

Posted by amy in Episodes, Fit Life

Want great thighs, a tight butt and amazing abs?  This quick squat will accomplish all of those!  Amy Mac shows you how to do a plie squat with or without weights.

Skinny jeans, teeny bikinis and short little black dresses – make the most of your workout with this trouble zone blaster.  You’ll be ready for spring break or summer vacation in no time! 

Derived from my days as a ballet dancer, plies sculpt your abs, butt and thighs for that leotard.  I wanted to bring it to the gym, add weights and have everyone benefit from the flexibility building, muscle toning exercise that I love.
