Try These Unique Sleep Tips

Hands up if you sleep like a baby every night? That you? Then don’t bother reading this anymore, and btw, I hate you (Joking - just very jealous!). You see, I have never been a good sleeper. I can’t nap either. I used to toss and turn. I’d wake up frequently, and get frustrated at how it was too hot, too cold. Or that my legs would go numb, or my hands would be gripped into a fist so tight it was like I was about to punch someone in the face. I’d wake up feeling like a truck had run over me. I’d stumble to the bathroom, wake myself up with a shower, have my daily caffeinated coffee, and get on with my day. Running a ....

2 Ways To Connect Your Pelvic Floor

The Pelvic Floor is essential for Women's Health and Fitness. If you're a woman reading this, at some point in your life you would have been told that you either need to strengthen or learn to connect your pelvic floor. You likely nodded your head sagely, as if you understood what this meant. But inside you were going "what the heck is a pelvic floor and how do I connect it??". You're not alone. In pilates, instructors will often instruct you to cue your pelvic floor. Then after you've had a baby, your Gynae will tell you that you have to do PF exercises. You may hear cues in your pilates class such as : "Zip up your pants". "Stop peeing" "Pick up a marble" "squeeze ....

Amazing 12 Body Transformation From Yoga to Strong

Body Tranformations are for everyone Don't believe me? Just look at Bronwyn's transformation. Bronwyn (57) was drawn to the Amazing 12 (A12) Body Transformation because while she wasn't overweight, she wanted to reduce the jiggle that plagues so many women. Also, Bronwyn felt that strength training was lacking from her routine. She practised Yoga and walked daily, but now post menopause, she knew how important weight training was. And she knew that yoga and walking wasn't going to cut it to reduce that jiggle. What is the Amazing 12? Founded by the legendary Paul McIllroy in Ireland, the Amazing 12 (known as A12) quickly escalated as the world's renowned Body Transformation Programme. ....

Fun Look At Pilates Vs Yoga

The first question I get from many people when I tell them I own a pilates studio here in Singapore is "Is Pilates like yoga?". Spoiler - it's not. But let's get into the details. I can see why the layperson would think they're the same. They've probably seen images of people with hands on the floor, who are normally barefoot, doing something resembling a stretch. And let's face it, yoga has been around for a lot longer than pilates! Some argue as far back as 5000 years ago! In a way, it seems that yoga is easier to understand because it's more familiar. It's been around for longer and spans multiple cultures. And yoga is pretty much the 'go-to' when people want to become ....
