I am so excited about the hyperice! In a few days I should be recieving my very own www.hyperice.com that is used by pro athletes, weekend warriors and everyday folks just the like for their sore, injured or just bothersome joints. You don't have to be a pro athlete to end up with aching joints so even though this is endorsed by some huge names it is for you too. The Hyperice ($80-$130) is affordable and has some outstanding technology for this price range. The hyperice uses ice compression to treat pain, soreness, and speed up recovery time. The hyperice is available for the back, knee, and shoulder. It also isn't messy like that plastic bag you've been taping to your body.

Having trouble getting enough water. Pack to bottles and do this to them:

I was reading through a fitness magazine that my friend Donna had brought over to me (I am recovering from ACL reconstruction) and I came across the Intimina Laselle Kegal equipment. http://www.intimina.com/en/ Now there is equipment for everything. Including Kegels. Interestingly enough I'd like to try them.

According to the site "The Laselle Kegel Routine is the ultimate training solution to strengthen your pelvic floor muscles in an easy and effective way. Keeping these muscles healthy is essential to reducing the risk of incontinence, preparing for and recovering from childbirth, while maintaining vaginal tightness for improved sensations during intimacy.

This complete workout set includes 3 Kegel exercisers of varying weights that can be used individually or combined to effectively build pelvic floor strength and tone. Worn internally, the spherical shaped weight provides a solid object to flex your muscles around and emits subtle vibrations during movement to confirm that it is correctly placed.

Staying true to Dr. Kegel's original method, our exercisers enable you to hone the correct technique of lifting upwards and squeezing. Progressing to higher weight levels and then combining multiple exercisers for a more advanced routine promises an efficient and effective pelvic floor workout. Easy-to-use, discreet and completely body-safe, the Laselle Kegel Routine will help you to reach the peak of your intimate health."

Check out the New Balance Winter 110 runner!

What makes them special is their combination of low weight and rock protection, but what makes them popular is their fit. They're a bit like the race/comps of trail running: they fit universally snug but not tight enough to make your toenails black. An extra-grippy sole doesn't hurt either. They have a zipup "outer sock" is water resistant, keeping the water out of the inner laceup shoe, and keeping you running through our miserable Canadian winters.

Lulu Lemon posted a few new pieces today. I am not overly impressed and I feel like their designs are pretty basic. However, their clothes are inarguably very comfortable and fit well for many body types. I just think these designs are basic and nothing innovating.

1/ St. Moritz Jersey
This long sleeve was engineered using moisture-wicking and lightweight Merino Wool Jersey. This wonder fabric helps to keep us warm when we get cold and helps to cool us down when things heat up (you won’t want to take it off). We added thumbholes to this base layer to help keep wrists warm and make layering easy.

2/ St Moritz Sweater
When the snow starts to fall we can’t wait to get outside (although we do love a good glass of wine and a crackling fire). With that in mind, we designed a sweater we knew would be good for both. Breathable and moisture-wicking Merino Wool joins forces with a soft Sweater Knit fabric to give us the best of both worlds. The raglan sleeves and built-in stretch help to reduce bulk and give us the freedom to make moves (on and off the mountain).

3/ St Moritz Jacket
Soft and fuzzy Fleece, water- and wind-resistant Cire fabric and a double-layer collar make this jacket a triple threat against winter chill (and cabin fever). The extra fuzzy arms feel incredible (they are out-of-this-world soft) and help to keep us cozy on the way to and from yoga.

4/ Chalet Keep Your Neck Cozy
Our chunky knit neckwarmer is made with a blend of organic cotton and rayon derived from bamboo and cashmere (yes – it is as awesome as it sounds). This soft and breathable infinity scarf makes it easy to get wrapped up in warming up. Editor’s note: they had me at chunky knit neckwarmer.
