Oxygenfit Review & Giveaway!

 

Saturday morning after hitting the gym for my cardio workout on the elliptical for an hour, I came home to try out the new Oxygenfit system that the company sent me to review! 

I got to try the entire Tone Up Kit!

Tone Up Kit.

Each Tone Up Kit comes with:

• Toning loop
• Toner
• Door Anchor
• Motivational DVD
• Training Poster Downloads
• Gym Technik Mobile Application

Personally, I’ve never been a fan of free weights at the gym.  The gargantuan men that pump iron all the time make me nervous and I never have a spotter to help me use them on my own.  I would much rather use a low impact system that I’m comfortable with to help me tone and define feminine muscles, which is what I’ve found through Oxygenfit. 

Designed for an on-the-go lifestyle, the Tone-Up Kit would be perfect for those who travel frequently.  The tools are small and would be easy to pack for a trip anywhere!  The creative exercises that the company has come up with keep you from boredom and completely work your body to sculpt LEAN muscle, which is the common goal, right?! 

Toner

The toner is so versatile.  You can use it for arms, legs, shoulders, back, etc!  It surpasses traditional toning bands and is WAY more efficient than free weights.  They actually come in five different weight varieties:  Very light - 7 lbs (Pearl), Light – 12 lbs (Blush), Medium – 19 lbs (Sky), Heavy – 26 lbs (Silver), and Very Heavy – 33 lbs (Black).  I liked how these bands weren’t subject to breaking.  I used to use a toning system by Windsor Pilates, but the bands broke SO easily and were hard to grab ahold of.  These toning bands are made for comfort, complete with handgrips!

I also love that there is a fabric sleeve over the actual resistance band for extra safety and avoiding chafing of the skin! 

DVDS

I loved the DVD tutorials, too.  They were very easy to follow and left no room for “guessing”.  It was helpful for me to be able to visualize the proper use of each tool through this system. 

I also got to try out the Fit Stick!

Fit Stick

The Fit Stik Body Sculpting System comes complete with:

• Fit Stik
• Choose from five Resistance levels
• Door Anchor Attachment
• Motivational Workout DVD
• Fitness Lifestyle Download
• Training Poster Download
• Gym Technik Mobile Application

Being that I was so excited to try this stuff out, I disregarded the instructional DVD for this product right away, thinking I’d be able to figure it out on my own.  It would’ve been SOO much easier had I just popped the DVD in though!  I made it way more complicated than it had to be.  This is a neat tool to enhance the sculpting power of the resistance bands.  Basically, it just adds to the variety of the exercise moves of the bands.  All you have to do is this:

Easy peasy

Next up is my absolute FAVORITE product that the company sent.  It’s called the “Toning Loop“.

Loopy for these things!

These little guys are used for durability and performance in each of your workouts.  They help to warm up both your upper & lower body with their powerful little curves   It’s even got a built-in stretch limitation for increased product life!  Available in three levels of resistance, these were effective and comfortable to use too.

The Body Ball is another product that I tried from OxygenFit.

This is probably the most versatile of all the products that Oxygenfit supplies.  Check out allll  the different moves you can work in with this tool!:

Not only that, it comes in cute colors, too!  Hey, what can I say?! I’m a visual person.  Mine is white, but it’s got a pearly shine to it!  Each different color, pearl [white], blush [pink], and sky [blue], comes in one of two sizes:  55cm or 65cm.   The unique, supple surface of the Oxygenfit Body-Ball was designed from an exclusive blend of materials for superior comfort and texture.

Sista FF Turns 19!

Yesterday, I celebrated the 19th year since my middle sister, MYranda’s birth.  It all started out with this quick and easy breakfast.

Strawberry Oikos.

+

Flat Out Light w/ Sonoma Jack’s & Splenda.

Then we left for Sunday School at 9am and then Church at 10am.  My new goal after listening to a class about selfishness, is to have the heart of a servant.  I got to thinking for example, when we consider going out to eat, I ALWAYS make sure to get my opinion in on where we go because of my picky habits, but I should be more concerned with the needs and wants of others.  My job in life isn’t to please myself, it’s to be like Jesus, which means being humble and looking out for others before myself. 

Afterward, we went home and started cookin’ her faveee meal…homemade sausage potpie.  She LOVES it!

My lunch was MUCH tastier, however

Sweet Vegetable Soup!

Ingredients? 1 Steamfresh bag of California Blend + 1/4C. Sugar Free Syrup + an outrageous amount of cinnamon.  I’m addicted!  Kid you not, just like oatmeal/cream of wheat with brown sugar.

Pluuuuuuuus some protein & carbs:

Plain Oikos + drizzle of SF syrup + Fiber Select

After lunch, we got cleaned up, the littlest FF seester had travel team softball practice about an hour away, so Poppa FF took her there, while Momma FF & I took the birthday girl to see a “The Last Song“.

Personally, I wasn’t sure what to expect.  I’m not typically a Miley Cyrus fan, number one, and number two, I was really let-down by “Dear John” another movie spun off of a Nicholas Sparks novel.  I read the book before seeing the movie last time and came to the theatre with high hopes, but left disappointed.  The Last Song, however was pleasantly surprising.  I cried about 4 times and it takes a lot for me to get emotional in the movie theatre.  Alot had to do with the fact that in this movie, the tearjerker was the troubled relationship between a girl and her father, which I could totally relate to, whereas in the other films, it was mainly based around a romantic relationship.  Either way, I truly recommend it

When we got home, I snacked on an unpictured nectarine & ran to Walmart to get my oil changed.  I figured I could get some groceries while I was there too since I was all out of my Light Flat Outs, syrups, cereal, and produce. 

The Goods.

I ended up stopping at Giant on the way home too, since Walmart didn’t have some of my faves (Fiber Select, Light Flat Outs, & Sonoma Jacks).  Anyway, here’s the spread: SF syrups (Log Cabin, Vanilla Torani & Raspberry Torani), Flat Outs, Sonoma Jacks, Fiber Select, diet sweet tea, yellow & orange peppers, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, Steamfresh veggies, and a nectarine.

When I got home, the whole family was there and ready to celebrate the birthday girl!  We had a feast of many dishes:

Fruit bucket (strawberries & grapes)

Lipton noodles & hotdogs.

Pasta salad

I used the condiments table to make my dinner!

Egg whites atop a bed of lettuce with cucumber, baby carrots, and added cherry tomatoes post picture.

You can bet I topped this beastly salad with my yummy homemade honey mustard.

For some whole grains, I later ate a 100 calorie bag of kettle corn:

popcorn.

While watching goober open her gifts!  The little stink got an iphone from the rents!  SOOOO jealous. 

tool <3

I got her a pair of aviators, a shirt from Hollister, Gertrude Hawk chocolate (her fave), some earrings, and a mug that she picked out while we were at Orlando.

Anyway, I think she had a good night!  We all had a ton of fun hanging out together and relaxing.

Dessert was this lil’ fruit cup!

cantaloupe, honeydew, strawberries, & blueberries (on the bottom!)

When everyone skidattled, I packed my lunch for today:

moreeeeeeeee eggwhites, veggie tub, & flat out.

Hope your Monday is as great as a Monday can be!
