Sculpt Your Thighs From Every Angle!

Guess what?! You can workout your inner thighs without even stepping into a gym!

Last week, my temporary one month pass to the gym expired. In all that one month, I went to the gym once for a Zumba class. Clearly, the salesman who tried to entice me to sign up for a gym membership at the end of my trial month had no idea who he was dealing with. I take my poor attendance as a sign: I am not meant to be a gym mouse!

I would much rather exercise at home or do fun activities such as a dancing and sports! But sometimes, the weather or schedules get in the way of that and I just need a workout. That's when I look for things I can do at home.

Even though summer is gone and there's no need for shorts, keep your legs toned and rock your skinny jeans ladies! Shape Magazine has shared their Top 10 NEW Exercises for Thinner Thighs

Keep fit everyone! I'm looking forward to trying these exercises out tonight in the comfort of my home!

Train Like an Angel!

It's not all fluff and poses for the Victoria's Secret models. They work to be runway ready!

Whether you are interested in fashion or not, you have undoubtedly seen many many times, images and ads of terrifyingly thin models and photoshopped movie stars floating around. Almost everywhere we look now, there they are: skinny girls and doctored photographs setting an impossibly high and unhealthy standard for body image.

Here's a different image of a model:

It is refreshing to see a company and it's models promote a healthier lifestyle and share their workouts. Yes, these women still seem incredibly small but at least we know they actually work for their figures. Aside from the videos they share, here's another tid bit to consider: many of the wings they wear on the runway are actually quite heavy! These models have put up to 50 pounds of extra weight on their backs while still keeping their walk tall and stilettos firmly on the ground!

In preparation for this year's show, they've started sharing new videos and tips from celebrity trainer, Justin Gelband, to help viewers and fans "Train Like an Angel!"

Don't get jealous; get fit! Until tomorrow PGX'ers...
