guest feature + giveaway!

It's your lucky day! We have an awesome giveaway sponsored by Dove Visibly Smooth Deoderant. They have teamed up with celeb trainer, Kacy Duke to bring you her fitness essentials, and the chance for three lucky readers to win a goody-tote bag with a Lucy® workout tank and Dove Visibly Smooth [minimizes the look and feel of underarm hair over time to help women feel stubble free for longer]. I think I'm sold.

To enter, read Kacy's essentials and leave a comment sharing one of your own. It can be food,  an item of clothing, a product, a workout, a book, and you get an extra entry if you mention HYC... just kidding. enjoy!

1] Commit to the Commitment - Creating a strong and fit body is an evolution, not a revolution! It takes time and commitment, so start exercising slowly and establish monthly goals.
2] Prepare what you Wear - Wear breathable cotton clothing while working out because it allows for easy bending, stretching and moving. If weather permits, Kacy recommends sleeveless tops to help keep cool in and out of the gym. For sleeveless ready confidence she chooses Dove Ultimate Visibly Smooth anti-perspirant/deodorant, which minimizes the look and feel of underarm hair over time to help women feel stubble free for longer. It includes Dove 1/4 moisturizers to help care for delicate underarm skin while providing 24-hour odor and wetness protection.
3] Changes and Challenges - Kick the old, boring fitness routine to the curb and start to challenge yourself. Add new dance moves to your routine! Add weights to your cardio activity - Keeping your workout fresh and new will give an extra boost of motivation!
4] Location, Location, Location - No matter what time of year… find fun & unusual locations - Check out your state’s official website to find a forest preserve or lake in close driving distance where you can enjoy a challenging work out on new terrain, such as hiking or kayaking. Or keep it fresh and try something like belly dancing, ballet classes, zumba or Kacy Duke’s own Underground Groove.
5] The Clean Machine - Give your body, soul and home a makeover. Housework burns calories, so clear out the clutter and donate to those in need. It’s a fantastic way to head into the New Year!
6] Simple Steps, little rewards - Start your morning with a brisk power walk to a neighborhood café. Treat yourself to a hot cup of tea afterward, you deserve it!

woohoo!
