What does Shampoo Really do to our Hair?

There is no correct way to wash your hair, everyone’s hair is different. Meaning some hair may need a bit more tender love and care. I.e. more frequent washing.

However, it is known that in general the less you wash your hair the more beneficial it is. My hairdresser used to always tell me to wash my hair less, but I thought the more I washed it, the less oily it would get. Instead, it does the opposite.

The Cardio You Didn't Know You Were Doing

I have always associated cardio with running. I always forget that there is so much more to cardio than just running. There are a lot of cardio activities that are things I don’t even consider as exercise!

For When You Feel Like Giving Up

There are times where we all feel like giving up. Whether it be because things have gotten tough or we just get lazy. Next time you’re thinking about giving up something, whether it be a new eating habit, exercise routine or just a simple task like going to bed earlier, try these things first. 

The A-Z Workout

Don’t know what to do for your next workout? Have a bit of fun and give this activity ago!

Spell out your name and do the corresponding exercise. Finished your name? Choose any word whether it be your favourite celebrity, your favourite movie or even just a word that means something to you.

Sometimes it’s fun to change things up!

How to Have the Best Sleep of Your Life

I have always been one of those people who has had trouble sleeping. I wish that as soon as I lay my head on my pillow I would magically fall asleep, but instead, I lay awake knowing I really need to get some shut eye, but for some reason just can’t get my mind to switch off. To make things worse, once I do get to sleep, I tend to wake up numerous times during the night and have to go through the whole process of falling asleep again. 

Berry Green Smoothie

I love smoothies, especially for breakfast. I don’t like a heavy breakfast, so I find that smoothies are a great choice and they keep me full until lunchtime.

One of my favourite smoothies is a mixed berry smoothie! This one I make all the time and I am always having to buy more berries and yogurt because I run out so quickly!

What Every Girl Needs in her Gym Bag

When I first started the gym, I didn't have a designated gym bag. Every time I got ready to head to the gym, I would just throw whatever I thought I needed into the closest bag. One day I was running on the treadmill and my hair tie broke. Of course, I didn't pack a spare one and had to cut my workout short or suffer from sweaty hair on the back of my neck. From that day I decided I needed to pack a proper gym bag. 

Here is what I think every girl must have in her gym bag.
