Bollywood fitness

This type of fitness has been there for a while, but with the recent success of the movie Slumdog Millionaire is more popular than ever. Many gyms are offering classes and the videos are selling more.

Bollywood as you know if the Hollywood of India. The movies in India are mostly musicals with a lot of interesting dances. The dances can be a bit cheesy for the western taste, but some of them are really nice and the choreographs are impressive in many movies.

I have tried many of the videos, I think they could be nice to bring variety to the routine. The videos in the post include part of a fitness video and a real dance form an Indian movie.

This is a cute Japanese video with a lot of cats. I miss Japan, but I never like their music. This video is relaxing and different. Have a great weekend.

How to walk like a model?

If you notice the models on the runway or catwalk, you will observe that they have a very unique way of walking. We don't see many people walking like that in the mall or on the street. There is a reason why models walk the way they do. It makes models look more confident, sexy, and graceful. Plus, they get that perfect posture and almost all types of clothes look good on them. This video by Mac Folkes shows you how to walk like a supermodel. You don't always have to walk like them but it is a good idea to learn how it is done and then incorporate it in your walking style.

Asian makeup

If you are an Asian and have a yellow skin tone, Joy, a Ford model, has some great tips on how to apply makeup quickly. Actually, even though she is a model, she says that she can put her makeup on in as little as two minutes. Watch as she tells you exactly what to do so that you don't look made up but do have your makeup on and look very natural.

How to get a Hollywood body?

Whether we like it or not but it is a fact that most of our Hollywood celebrities are indeed beautiful and have bodies that are simply close to perfect. And trust me, it takes a lot of work to stay that way, even when you are blessed with a good body and you have great genes (plus help from makeup artists and cosmetic surgeons). If you don't believe me, just look at the celebs that stopped eating healthy or did not workout -- they lost their great bodies and while some Kirstie Alley did it, others couldn't.

I have written previously about how to get a Hollywood body in 6 weeks and wrote other articles based on Hollywood stars like recovering your body after pregnancy, yoga during pregnancy, and yoga on a daily basis.

Daisy Fuentes recently did a series of episodes on television revealing the secrets of the Hollywood stars and their fitness regimen.

Nail diseases

We love our nails and one of the most frequently places by women is a nail salon. Since we keep putting all kinds of beautiful nail polishes, we often mask any problems that the nails might have. Believe it or not but the nails can tell a lot more about your health than you think. This video is definitely worth watching in which Dr. Emily Senay highlights several health problems that can be diagnosed simply by looking at your fingernails.

Best lip balm

One must-have accessory during winter is lip balm. Especially for those living in colder climates. Lips can suffer all kinds of damage from low temperature and dry air. Therefore, we all tend to carry a lip balm in our purses or pockets. But could the lip balm actually be drying your lips? Yes, if you are addicted to lip balm, you might be putting too much chemical on your lips. And in that process the balm eventually dries your lips. Also remember that since you are likely to lick your lips and the balm, you should not use so much of it, especially if it not 100% natural. Here is some great advice from Dr. Holly Phillips on which balms to buy.

Partner yoga moves video

Yoga is a great form of exercise because you can do it almost anywhere and while it is a good idea to have a yoga mat, you can simply put a towel on the floor if you are in a hotel room. Almost all the time, you can do yoga by yourself.

But what if you want to involve your partner (trying to motive him or her to lose weight and be fit) or just want to do some yoga with a friend, models Tara Stiles and Desiree Dymond demonstrate some great yoga moves in this video.

Yoga for beginners

You have probably heard all the wonderful things about yoga. Maybe your friends rave about it. You might have watched all the celebrities attribute their good looks to youth to peace of mind to yoga. I do not want to say that yoga can cure all the problems that we have, but it is true that people who practice yoga regularly do enjoy better health and can experience inner peace. While yoga has become a big business now with fees for instructors, videos, apparel, and accessories, you do not need any of these unless you want to. Just wear comfortable clothing, put a mat on the floor, and you are all set to go. Tara Stiles, a model, shows you in this simple video how to get started with yoga.
