Two things I adore in the gym are the Bosu balls and the steps (for aerobics), so my excitement level advanced to a full DEFCON 1 when I found out about this new hybrid called the Step 360.  It’s a hybrid of the step and the Bosu ball.

Excellent for cardio and strength workouts, and because the platform is supported by two air chambers, and you’ll get a tough balance challenge as well.  It features platform anchors that allows you to loop in a resistance band for strength moves and its grips make planks and push-ups doable.

Be one of the first to snag a Step 360 for yourself.  Jump over to Shape for your chance to win one.

A few days ago on Facebook I was voicing on my eagerness to kick my Diet Pepsi habit, so my friends over at Zevia sent me a challenge.  They sent me some of their natural diet sodas.

So change is hard, right?  It’s hard for everyone with everything….especially when it comes to your signature drink.

But the cans looked beautiful and the flavors seemed so good, and we already know I’m two steps shy of being a tree-hugger, so it’s safe to say, I appreciated the “natural” part of the soda.

I first tried Ginger Ale.  One sip and I as a believer.  But I kept drinking more and more to be sure.  Next I tried the Ginger Root Beer, of which tasted absolutely nothing like a “diet” drink…so delicious.  Other flavors were black cherry, orange, cola and orange.  I loved all of them.  They are really light and refreshing, and made with “good for you” ingredients.

You will absolutely love, love,  love these drinks.  It’s such a great break from traditional diet colas.  The flavors really pop in your mouth and there’s lots of variety.  It’s almost like dessert…and who doesn’t love that?  Even Oprah does!

And the great news is that Zevia is going to give away some of their natural diet sodas to you, too!  Simply become a fan of Zevia on their Facebook page.

Then simply leave a comment here on our blog letting us know you became a fan on Facebook.  It’s that simple.  Good luck!
