60 Second Sweat by Patrick Striet



60 Second Sweat by Patrick Striet, CSCS for the past 15 years, Patrick Striet has run a fitness training facility in Cincinnati, Ohio, where he has worked with hundreds of everyday men and women working moms, college students, senior citizens, middle-aged men, and more (plus a few elite athletes). Through this experience, he has identified the barriers most people face when it comes to exercising consistently lack of time, lack of results, injuries, boredom and specifically designed the 60-Second Sweat to address them. 60 Second Sweat combines hot fitness trends High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) and Metabolic Resistance Training (MRT) into a single efficient and effective training program, with each exercise requiring no more than 1 minute at a time.

My Opinion: I do get bored with the exercise routine and I think that is why I fall off the wagon and stop even though I am seeing results. This book does offer some great tips from calorie consumption to beginner phase work out that does show you a weekly schedule and illustrated picture that makes it easy to follow. I really like it so I am going to give it a shot.

HSI Professional

HSI Professional offers anything you may need for your hair, in the winter months I know where I live it is cold and when I wear a hat and take it off my hair is all over the place and sticking up not to mention unruly. I was sent a Glider which is a flat iron straightener that features high-quality ceramic plates that use 8 HeatBlance micro sensors to regulate the temperature and evenly distribute heat. The temperature is fully adjustable between 140°F to 450°F to give greater control and fit any hair type. The hair straightener’s floating plates have curved edges that provide extra flexibility to curl or straighten your hair. You also get a free sample of Argan oil leaving treatment in this retails for $79.99. 

Argan Oil Thermal Protector 8 ounce bottle you spray this onto clean, wet or dry hair for a quick fix or extra shine then you style as usual. You can apply this before using a flat iron, curling iron, blow dryer, or other hair heating appliances. It makes the hair smooth, hydrated and frizz-free. This retails for $19.99, it is made in the USA, not tested on animals, color safe, sulfate free, phosphate free and paraben free. 

Argan Oil Leave-In Treatment 4 ounces can be used as a conditioning serum, styling, and finishing tool. Infused with highly concentrated antioxidant-rich argan oil and shine boosting vitamins, this completely transformative hair treatment detangles, speeds up drying time and boosts shine, leaving you with nourished, manageable and smooth hair with each use. This retails for $34.00, it is made in the USA, not tested on animals, color safe, sulfate free, phosphate free and paraben free.

My Opinion: not use flat irons very often but I really like the way this one works as having eight micro sensors makes it so you don’t have to go through your hair very often as it delivers the heat evenly so your hair doesn’t get damaged. I really like the results of the thermal protector to help fight against for is on my hair because I do get that along with the leaving treatment I just take a few drops and use my hand and comb through my hair.

Country Heat


It is winter time and it is cold where I live along with not being close to many conveniences and it is a new year and I always put weight loss as a goal on my list so I was thinking of trying Country Heat from the makers of Beachbody. When you order Country Heat it comes with two DVDs along with an eating plan, starts guide, 30- day calendar, encouraging you to take a before and after photo, information on Shakeology, portion control containers and I also got a Shakeology cup.
If you can walk you can do Country Heat dance fitness program, you can lose weight fast. I was the last time you had fun trying to lose weight? When was the last time you looked forward to walking on the treadmill? Country Heat changes everything with this great music, and by great we mean great and the moves are simple line dance inspired. Autumn Calabrese is the instructor for this video and you will learn six dance moves one is Country Swing go little wild with songs like “Young &Crazy” while you crank up the calorie burn with moves like the Grease Step and 2-Timing Hop. Giddy up stomp your feet as speed up your heart rate. Moves like Scuff Squats and Saddle Jumps work your legs includes, with songs like “Fake ID” help you forget you're burning major calories.

My Opinion: I do really like how easy the moves are on these as you work your way up to intensity meaning day one you do country swing day to you do country swing day three and four giddy up day five-country swing in day six giddy up again so you can get comfortable with the routine. I also like the meal plan ideas along with the portion control containers they are very helpful. I’ve just started my journey with this so we’ll see how far I can get I’m shooting to at least lose 40 pounds by summer as I’d like to wear a bikini some year.

Joffrey's Coffee & Tea Company

In 1984, our passion for truly exceptional coffee and tea inspired us to start something special. So, we searched for the very best beans and tea leaves earth had to offer. Decades later, we’ve become that special something we set out to create because we never stop searching for extraordinary flavors and experiences to share with our eager fans. That is how Joffrey’s Coffee & Tea Company got started and you can also find them at Walt Disney World, Disneyland Parks and Disney Vacation Club in the room or at most restaurants.

I got Jamaican Me Crazy Single Serve Cups in a package of 12 which is one of their bestselling flavored coffees with caramel and vanilla blend with the richness of coffee liqueur flavoring to create a tropic-inspired treat with an aroma as alluring as a Caribbean vacation in the dead of winter. Made in small-batch roast its blend of 100% Specialty Grade Arabica Beans to a beautiful brown then sit back and imagine the cooling tray as one big kettledrum.

Toasted S’mores a campfire brings to mind images of beautiful forests, family and friends and making delicious treats by the fire. The Toasted S'mores brings this quintessential campfire treat to your mug with artisan roasted goodness of Specialty Grade coffee flavored with toasted marshmallow, sweet graham cracker, and chocolate coffee notes.

Steakhouse 55 a classic coffee; one befitting dark-wood furnishings, bygone era lavishness, and a menu replete with “Sunrise Rhapsodies” like New York steak and eggs and “South-of-the-Border Serenades” like huevos rancheros. To Joffrey’s only a single-origin Colombian would do. Well-balanced, with a mellow flavor and richness, this carefully chosen 100% Specialty Grade Arabica bean is small batch roasted to a perfect medium with the same amount of artistry once displayed by the movie and music luminaries whose photos adorn the walls.
My Opinion: These coffees taste and smell amazing I like the Jamaican Me Crazy with the caramel, vanilla and coffee liqueur. The S’mores does remind me of a campfire favorite treat in this medium roast. Steakhouse 55 does the trick to wake me up in the morning and great with my morning breakfast.
