We all know that getting exercise and feeding your body right is important when it comes to getting fit and healthy. But a lot of times, we THINK we are doing everything we are supposed to do but actually, we are not. There is one more thing we need to concentrate on - SLEEP. If you don't sleep enough, you put your body under stress. If you are stressed, you can't get the results you want. Stress makes it hard to gain muscle and lose fat. Stress makes it DIFFICULT to lose weight when your body is not well rested! SO!

Recently I've been taking heels dance classes and I've been feeling SOOOO empowered and confident afterwards! Seriously...when you let your inner sassy beast out, you feel so invincible, powerful, and sexy! You don't have to be a dancer, you just have to like to move your body, which I already know you do! I wanted to try choreographing my own routine so I invited my friends over so I could teach them...and YOU!! Today I'm going to teach you a beginner's heels routine to "Do you really wanna be in love" by Frigga.

Body positivity. It’s not as straightforward as you think. I used to think I was being body positive if I loved my body, but apparently, it’s not that simple. After embarking on my 90 day journey, I got so much negativity and backlash from fans saying that I hated my body. Did having a weight loss goal make me automatically a bad role for body positivity? Did having a fat loss goal make me automatically anti body positive?

This video isn't like anything I have EVER done before, and it all started with a few questions I had. Why do we allow our weight to control our feelings? Why do we give the scale so much power? What does BMI really mean? Is body fat percentage actually a better indicator of health? I decided to gather a bunch of women together to run a “little” social experiment to find out how all of these things - BMI, weight, body fat percentage - actually looked like on a woman. And I wanted to see if we could tell which was most accurate. Or would we find out that labels are bogus?

Over 90 days ago, I had a breakdown. I realized after years of being in the public eye, I was no longer living the life I wanted. I spent a long time carefully constructing a plan to get my mind and body in the best shape of my life & going public with it was huge for me, because I knew I needed you guys to keep me accountable. You've seen the rest. The backlash, the plateaus, the emotions. My intention was always to be transparent with you every step of the way, and I'm finally ready to talk about it all.

A few years ago, I made a POP Pilates workout video to Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas Is You". At my parents house. Wearing the craziest snowflake headband. Yeah, it was weird. But this is my redemption. I went ALL OUT with the matching sets & decorations. My good friend Natalie from Natalie's Outlet is joining us for a super fun cardio dance routine that will really get those glutes working! Basically, if you like Mariah Carey, dancing, cardio or squats, you're gonna love it!! Share this workout with a friend over the holidays!

What aesthetics make you one of the most followed women in the female fitness category?
