Tracy Anderson Method: Dance Cardio Workout DVD Review & Giveaway Ends 12/05/12 at 7PM EST
Review:
I have had this DVD for nearly a month. I have been working on it and wanted to have it down before I wrote my review. I had to do the tutorial several times before I even attempted the workout. I am not a dancer. I do not have much rhythm but I do enjoy dancing. Once I got the moves down and did the workout I loved it. It's so much fun. The workout really feels like I'm just dancing to the music. It took another week or so before I was able to do the entire workout without stopping from pure exhaustion. This is an advanced cardio routine. It's not easy by any stretch of the imagination. I do not consider myself to be advanced but I do workout on a daily basis five days a week.
I love Tracy Anderson and I love this Dance Cardio DVD. Tracy can do no wrong in my humble opinion. My favorites DVDs by her are still the Mat & Post Pregnancy Workouts. This is next in line. I am not a fan of cardio, but I know it's what I need to lose weight. This DVD makes cardio fun which is not an easy thing to do. I highly recommend this for high calorie burns and for a workout that doesn't feel like a workout. It's so much fun!

Crest 3D White Professional Effects Whitestrips Influenster Voxbox Review
I am a member of influenster and they sent me Crest 3D White Professional Effects Whitestrips to review. I drink a lot of coffee and I used to be a smoker so my teeth do need to be whitened. As soon as the box arrived I ripped it open and put these strips on. I have been using these since they arrived about a week ago. My teeth are noticeably whiter. I love how easy these whitestrips are to use and how fast I am seeing the results. If you are like me and you want a whiter smile just get some of these and see how quickly you have a brighter, whiter smile.
Over time, your teeth yellow due to everyday activities and indulgences. While precautions can be taken, if you are not actively whitening your smile, you are yellowing it. Rely on Crest Whitestrips, from the #1 most awarded whitening brand by beauty editors, for a whiter smile that lasts. Crest 3D White Professional Effects Whitestrips work to remove over 10 years of set-in stains and “whiten 25X better than a leading whitening toothpaste*". To unleash the whitening power you would expect from a dentist, the secret is in the strip!
Add Crest 3D White Whitestrips Professional Effects to your oral care routine for:
- A whiter smile after just 3 days
- Full results in 20 days
- Professional-level results at a fraction of the cost vs. light & laser systems
-Revolutionary Advanced Seal technology for no-slip whitening
-New improved lower strip for more whitening coverage
*when toothpaste is used for 4 weeks.

Editorial Reviews
World-renowned pianist LANG LANG turns to the composer who has accompanied him throughout his career on his new release for Sony Classical, THE CHOPIN ALBUM. The music of Chopin, universally loved for its beauty and communicative power, has long been a dynamic force in Lang Lang's life, propelling him through a number of career-defining experiences. Now, in his 30th-birthday year, Lang Lang records his first album entirely devoted to the great composer's solo piano masterpieces. Chopin "speaks with such a universal voice," says Lang Lang. "I genuinely believe he's a true ambassador for classical music among the great composers. He appeals to everyone."One of the first pieces Lang Lang learned was the Grande Valse brillante in E-flat major op. 18 (included on this album), and it was Chopin's music that also carried him through a number of career-changing competitions, including Ettlingen (Germany) in 1994 and the International Tchaikovsky Competition for Young Musicians in Sendai (Japan) in 1995, when he took First Prize performing Chopin's Second Piano Concerto. And it was with the Chopin Etudes that Lang Lang made his now-renowned Beijing Concert Hall recital at age 14 a performance that led to his studying with Gary Graffman at the Curtis Institute in Philadelphia. The Chopin Album includes the second set of Chopin's Etudes (op. 25), the Andante spianato & Grande Polonaise and a selection of shorter works that he has long enjoyed performing, including three Nocturnes and the Waltz op. 64 no. 1, popularly known as the "Minute" Waltz.

Chris Mann's New Album Roads Review
As a finalist on the hit NBC television series “The Voice,” Chris Mann
captured the hearts of millions while drawing the respect of multi-
platinum talents such as Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo. Following one of
his many dynamic live performances on the show, Aguilera told him, “I
feel the heavens open up when you sing.” America agreed, and when
the series ended, Chris had not one, but two songs on the iTunes Top 10
Pop Singles Chart.
Influenced by Pavarotti, Robbie Williams and vintage Sinatra, Chris’
blend of classically-trained tenor and contemporary pop vocals is a
sound that’s rare in music today. Said Cee Lo, “He is by far one of the
most incomparable vocalists I have ever heard.”
This classical crossover artist is set to release his Christmas EP on
October 9 and his full-length major label debut album on October 30.
You can preview some of the songs from the album here http://soundcloud.com/universalrepublic/sets/chris-mann/s-e7O63
This is the first time I have heard about Chris Mann but I can honestly say I loved every minute of this ablum. It is truly spectacular. I have been listening to it at work. Nice and peaceful and work friendly too!
If you want to check out Chris Mann you can see more about him on ChrisMannMusic.com - http://bit.ly/CMannMusic, you can download Roads on iTunes - http://bit.ly/SgkwJb or you can order/download Roads on Amazon.com - http://amzn.to/XQpJc8
This is a review post from One2One Network. I was provided with a copy of the album and I am eligible for a prize drawing. All opinions stated are my own.
Dance Off the Inches: Latin Cardio Party DVD Review & Giveaway Ends 11/30/12 at 7 PM EST
Anchor Bay Entertainment sent me a new release fitness DVD to review called Dance Off the Inches: Latin Cardio Party. As you know I do a fitness DVD each morning before I go to work. This one is fun! I love to try to dance although I really am no good at it. It's fun to try.
This 43 minute workout includes three different style segments. Emily leads this workout in an open studio with two background instructors. This DVD doesn't require any equipment. There are music options. It also includes a 21 minute learn the moves “step guide". Which is super helpful for me because I am not that good at dance type fitness routines. Once you learn the moves in a segment then you string them together for a routine and finally you move on to the next segment.
Samba: Exercises include V step up & back, samba, knee swings and shimmies.
Cumbia: Exercises include sexy circle, slinky step, cumbia, & knee knocks.
Reggaeton: Exercises include stomp, chest pop, circle stomp, body rolls, and knee up w/ brush the shoulder. This is a Latin/ hip hop fusion workout.
I really enjoy this workout and I try to do it about once a week because it's super fun and it gets me sweating. My favorite routine is the Reggaeton, I am a huge reggae fan and haven't ever had this type of workout before.

Garden Project - Creating Sun and Shade Planters
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Miracle-Gro for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
I just found a website Gardenieres that has some fun projects for me to try. I decided to try to create sun and shade planters after watching the video they have on their site. The video features Gina Iliopoulos a midwest Gardeniere that lives in Chicago. I chose this project because it seems fun and I can easily get the supplies needed to complete the project.
In the Midwest, seasonal temperatures vary so widely from spring to summer, planters have different requirement depending on where they're placed. Gina shows us how to replace spring flower planters with colorful, hearty summer flowers and plants. Also Gina talks through, step by step, the best planting techniques for successful growing in shady and sunny spots throughout your garden. Check in with Gina to get tips on replanting and caring for gardens during the changing seasons.
I love working in the yard and I love to find new ideas. It's so much fun to check out this website and see what projects I can get started. I know winter is coming but spring is just around the corner. So I am planning ahead and looking forward to getting outdoors and gardening. I love that Miracle Gro has everything I need to make my yard beautiful year round. The Gardenieres has so many fun and exciting projects for me to try. I will be busy year round with this new website and the projects that I do after watching all the cool videos!
With the changing seasons it's easy to Find beauty in the Fall.
