Box Gap

So I was looking at myself in the mirror and I noticed that I had a box gap. YAY! A lot of my family  members and friends ask me how I got a box gap so I thought I would tell you guys as well.

  • Jogging 
  • Remember to eat healthy 
  • Do heaps of cardio 
  •  drink heaps of water 
  • Side Lunge Slide
    Stand with feet hip-width apart, left foot resting on a paper plate.
    Bend the right leg while sliding the left foot to the side, torso
    upright and abs in. Slowly slide left foot back to starting position,
    repeating 8-12 times. Switch legs and repeat for 2-3 sets.

  • Lunge Slide
    Stand with feet hip-width apart, left foot resting on a paper plate.
    Bend the right leg while sliding the left foot back into a lunge
    position, keeping the right knee behind the toe, torso upright and abs
    in. Slowly slide left foot back to starting position and repeat 8-12
    times. Switch legs and repeat on each leg for 2-3 sets.

  • Front One-Legged Squat
    Stand on a step or small platform. Lift left leg out in front of step
    and bend the right leg, bringing the toe of the left foot to the
    floor. Touch the floor lightly and keep the knee of the bent leg in
    line with toes. Straighten the right leg and repeat 8-12 times. Switch
    legs and repeat for 2-3 sets.

  • Chair Squat
    Stand in front of a chair with feet hip-width apart, abs in and torso
    straight. Slowly bend your knees and lower and until you're almost
    touching your butt to the chair. Hold for 2-3 seconds, knees behind
    the toes, and straighten. Repeat for 12-16 reps, 2-3 sets.

  • Heel Drops with Leg Extension
    Stand on step or platform with left leg on the step, right leg hanging
    off the side. Bend the left leg and lower the right foot towards the
    floor (a few inches). Straighten the left leg and bring the right leg
    out to the side, foot flexed, in a leg extension. Repeat 8-12 times,
    switch legs for 2-3 sets.

  • Hip Extension
    On a flat or inclined step or platform, lie facedown with hips on the
    edge of the step, legs straight out behind you with toes resting
    lightly on the floor. Squeeze the glutes and hamstrings and straighten
    the legs until they are level with the hips. Hold for 2-3 seconds, and
    lower letting toes lightly touch the floor. Repeat for 2-3 sets of
    8-12 repetitions.

LATERAL LUNGE
  • Begin with stepping to the right beyond shoulder width while keeping your toes forward and your feet flat. Squat through your right hip while keeping your left leg straight. Squat as low as possible, holding that bottom position for three seconds. Push back to the starting position and repeat on the other side.

    Okay everyone, hope you all try these exercises. Have a nice weekend x

Botanic Gardens


So today my lovely mother woke me up with a surprise. She told me that we were going to Botanic Gardens. My mother always surprises me like this. So I got dressed and we headed off. We started at the orchids and browse through the beautiful flowers. Then we went to the restaurant located inside. The food was to die for, it was amazing. After we went to the pond at the bottom and went hiking. It was an excellent day. I also lost a couple of pounds haha. I recommend going there.

Here is the entry for the Botanic Gardens

Pimples

Hey Girles x
Do you hate pimples because I differently do. Girls, what are your thoughts about them? Well thanks to me, I have found some good ways to get rid of them. Thanks to fruits and veggies we eat. They don't only full your belly but give your face a beautiful glow. You guessed it, more masks. But this time for the face.


So here is some ideas:

1. Fill a small cup with water and salt. Make sure it's insanely salty, until it won't dissolve anymore. Make sure the water is room temperature.
2. Take a cotton ball and put it in the saline solution you just made. 
3. Put the cotton ball on your pimple for three minutes or so. 
4. Take a clean cotton ball and scrape the pimple in a downwards motion to get rid of it.
5. Keep kind of rubbing at it then wipe the salty residue off. 
Tips: 
1. Don't touch your pimple. It will make it harder for the salt solution to work. 
2. Use this method on a new pimple ASAP
3. Where you were rubbing might be a bit red for a bit, so do it before bed. When you wake up it should be completely gone..
4. Usually only works on pimples that have the little white dot in the middle of them. Or new ones that haven't been touched at all. 
4. Don't use concealer. It covers up your pores, and they can't breathe to clear out the oils. 
5. Drink lots of water.

Hoped I help. x Love you x

Hair Masks

Hey girlies x
So I know that hair isn't really something that involves being fit and healthy but it has a story to go with it. And I figure if you want a good body, you may as well have a good hair and a face free of pimples. Today I will be discussing hair. You're properly wondering why i chosen hair, well like i said before theirs a story to go with it. 

Today I was sick so I stayed in bed nearly all day. I got really bored so I started to watch movies. My frist choose was LOL then Pretty Little Liars, Vampaires Diary's, H20 I then click on something called Victorious which lead to Hannah Montana after that I click on wizards of wavery place and from there I watch Alex vs Alex (related to W.O.W.P). What I noticed is all of the main actors/actress were fit and healthy. But that's not what caught my eye, what caught my eye was there hair. Now I know what you're thinking.... hair... But yes hair. Everyone hair was so healthy and lush. They put heat on it everyday yet it looked so beautiful. So i went to do some research.  I don't apply heat to my hair often but when I look at my hair it's frizzy. Well normally so I wanted to do something about it. I didn't want to waste $50 on some product that didn't even work. I went online and found some masks that you can stop frizzy ness and split ends. I only did two so far because I only did this today. The one I have tried is  banana and avocado mask and Mayonnaise, Egg and Olive Oil. 
First was the banana and avocado: (this one is to stop hair from being frizzy)
here you use banana and avocado to make a mask. Mash together a banana and an avocado. Comb through hair, allow to sit for 15 minutes, then rinse. For extra conditioning, or to thin out the mask, add 1/3 cup of cream before applying to hair.

Next was Mayonnaise, Egg and Olive Oil: (this one helps prevent split ends)
Mix a Tablespoon of Mayonnaise, a yolk of an Egg and a teaspoon of Olive Oil. Apply on your hair for 30 min wearing a shower cap.

So I hope you try these out and get fab results. When people ask you how did you get your hair like that tell them about this website. Here are some tips, so you don't muck up like I did.
Tips:
©         Get a shower cap
©          have a spare comb (just in case)
©         wrap  a towel around your body (DONT WEAR CLOTHES, IT'S ANNOYING TO GET CHANGE... YOU DON'T WANT AVOCADO ON YOUR CLOTHES.
©         don't forget the timer - very important
©          for the 2nd mask put it on the ends of your hair than work your way up. -don't put it on the roots
©      Make sure you wash the dishes quickly

Okay I hope you have a fun time. Tomorrow I'll be talking about the dinner idea I posted last week.
