I don’t care what anyone else says. I have the MOST TALENTED, INCREDIBLE and GENEROUS friends EVER! If it wasn’t for all the amazing support that I get from my real life friends every day, there is no way that BEXLIFE would be even half the success that it is. What would I do without the photographic talents of Mr. Borucki or pals like Rachel who came all the way down from Brooklyn to South Jersey to shoot recipe videos with me all day and expected nothing but a ‘thank you’ in return? I know. I would be more broke and less excited about what I get to share with you every week.
This week’s workout is completely fueled by the electric inspiration of two of my very talented friends, Cassey Ho of Blogilates.com and Natalie Ferraro of Ninja Betty and the Nunchix. Cassey’s sunny personality and Pop Pilates workouts are truly in a class by themselves. You can’t help but smile as she kicks your butt into submission. When I got her newest tank as a surprise in my mailbox, I couldn’t WAIT to wear it for my next workout.
I can’t lie – baggy sweats don’t inspire me to work on my fitness… at all. Thanks to the style help of Bianca Jade of MizzFit.com (have you seen my makeover video yet??) and all of my amazing brand sponsors (check them out on my shop page), I’ve been feeling sexier and more confident than ever during my workouts. I paired a pair of capris from my makeover with Cassey’s tank for my 2-4-6-8 CRAZY ABS Workout.
presents in my mailbox rock my socks off
how cute am I – er, I mean – how cute is this tank?!
And for me, a workout is never as effective without my favorite music as it is when I have my “gym jam” playlist on shuffle. YouTube is notoriously strict about using copyrighted music, so how lucky am I to have friends like the Nunchix who are willing to share their amazing tracks with me? Their song in today’s video makes me want to grab my beach bag and head straight to the Jersey Shore. Charge Me Up is now the OFFICIAL BEXLIFE SUMMER JAM. (Pssst – you can get it for a buck by clicking here.)
incredible chix. equally incredible music.
I hope that this workout is as fun for you to do as it was for me to put together. It looks easy, but I guarantee that it will seriously murder your abs. You can thank me later. xo
