Let’s shop, let’s shop awayyyyyyy 
Hi everyone
I’ve joined the OpenSky party!
I figured it would be an awesome way to share all of my favorite products with you, since I’m often asked which brands I buy and where I get them. This way, you can get my faves all in once place! Baller.
Like…..
My dehydrator:
Beloved chia seeds:
SPIRALIZER! (I was so stoked that they had this one!)
And so much more It’s really an amazing creation.
The thing is, my OpenSky store isn’t going to be a hodge podge of random stuff. Every single item in my store is something that I currently own, have used often and LOVE.
I’ll keep working on adding more goodies and stay tuned for an awesome promo that the OpenSky peeps have generously offered Fitnessista readers – this will go down on Wednesday!!!
Happy Shopping and please let me know if there’s anything you see on the bloggy that you’d like to find in my store (I’ve already requested Sun Warrior, maca and spirulina).

This morning, I munched the bfast cookie that we made the video for last night.
I think it tasted better because it took so long to make it 
Next, I hit up the gym for the best weights sesh I’ve had in a LONG time.
Since last week was so chill, I did a whole-body workout and some cardio. I moved quickly in between sets and did the entire workout in 30 minutes. Here it is for ya’ll:
Whole Body Toning Sesh (weights 30 minutes; cardio 30 minutes)
1. Cardio warm-up (15 minutes, moderate intensity)
3. Supine Chest Fly with Reverse crunch
4. Stability ball hamstring curl
6. Bent over row and kickback (I did both arms at once, feet hips width apart and knees slightly bent)
9. 15 minutes cardio of choice (I did steady on the elliptical since I have Zumba tonight—add in some sprint or hill intervals to kick things up)
10. Stretch
I’m back at the casa and am about to tackle the disaster that’s my car. I’m one of those people who likes the house to be spotless, but my car is a hot mess. What can I say? I live out of it 
See ya tonight <3

Something to do: Hit up OpenSky Lot’s of fun fitness, foodie and kitchen goodies.. maybe even something PG-13 (gasp!)
Hi, I'm Gina. Welcome to The Fitnessista! I love blogging about my adventures as a new mom, military wife and fitness instructor, as well as sharing new workouts and recipes. Check out the About page for more info - thanks for stopping by!
Awesome! I partnered with OpenSky, too – it’ll be fun to work with you there!!
I want a spiralizer so bad! Now I gotta get one!
OpenSky is so cool!
I have got to get my hands on a spiralizer! (and a dehydrator…and a Vitamix…etc. etc. etc.)
i’d love to partner with open sky someday! i’ll definitely be looking for that spiralizer there
Congratulations on the OpenSky shop! I know it will be a success, since I have definitely taken much advice from your site on certain things to buy
P.S. I was totally the same way with my old car (before I totalled it), it was a disaster yet my house is usually spotless haha. The new car is a different story though… those BMW payments keep me in car-cleanliness-check haha
Ohhhhh, thanks for this workout. Your timing is always impecable! I had a slack week and need to get caught up in a speedy fashion. What would I ever do without you as my virtual trainer?
Spiralizer has been on my Xmas list for two years.
haha i’m so glad it was good timing and i’m happy to be your virtual trainer
what are you waiting for, little lady? the price is not shabby at all! everyone needs a spiralizer in their life
Love the store!!!
I’ve come to be obsessed with the bosu. Sometimes I end up at a gym that doesn’t have one (traveling) and it makes me grouchy!
Ohhh yippy yay for shopping
We have the position book too…. totally agree it’s a fun one!!
I really need to get a spiralizer!! I was just gifted a dehydrator but haven’t used it yet.
There better be millet bread in that store!
hahah i wish! they don’t have fresh stuff :/
Ok, rookie question…what are foam rollers good for? Easing sore muscles, getting blood flowing, etc?? Do you ever incorporate man makers into your workouts? I recently discovered them (always behind!) and have been incorporating them into my workouts. They’re awesome full-body workouts!
http://www.firednfabulous.blogspot.com/
i’ve tried them before- those babies are INTENSE!
foam rollers are amazing for rubbing out tight muscles, especially for my IT band, hammies, quads and shoulders. you don’t realize how much you need one until you try it!
Loveeeeee juice beauty! And that looks like a great workout…I’m gonna have to try it!
Thanks for the retweet yesterday lady, made me smile real big:)
no prob! xoxo
woo hoo for opensky – cant wait to check out your fave picks!
YAY for OpenSky! I’m adding you to my “favorite shops” now
I wish I could afford the dehydrator…
Yes, perfect timing! Since running won’t be on my agenda for awhile, lots of strength training will!
Oh, how I long for a dehydrator. I’ll just have to stay happy with my spiralizer for now
thanks for sharing your favorites through open sky-how fun!
Love the OpenSky shop!!
What are your thoughts on pregnant woman lifting weights?
i think it’s great if pregnant women lift weights if they lift light weights and it’s something they’ve been doing for a while.. when you’re pregnant, it’s not the time to start a new fitness routine
I would really like to see a Zumba video you would recommend in your OpenSky store. I’ve been wanting to try it out in the comfort of my own home before I venture out to a class.
Ughhhhhhhhh so so so tempting. I *need* my own foam rollerrrrr….I also *need* to pay my electric bill. Decisions.
hahah! (wait til wednesday to get the foam roller)
Okay now you gotta get Sun Warrior on your open sky and maybe mesquite too!!
I should probably have a foam roller myself…..I’ve never used one!
Ooh, I’d love to see some goji berries added to the store!
Also, what’s the Goddess dressing you always use and why do you love it so much? AND, why goat cheese?
Thanks! I need new grocery store items. I’m getting really burnt out on my regular staples.
yes, that’s a great idea!
i use the annie’s goddess dressing or trader joe’s goddess- it’s SO delicious..creamy, tangy, amazing.
as far as the goat cheese goes, i prefer goat over cow dairy because it’s easier to digest and is less mucus forming (gross, but true)
Congrats! Looking forward to shopping
dang, I wish I had money right now to buy chia seeds! Yours are way cheaper than whole foods.
seriously- i was very stoked when i saw all of the prices for these goodies!
Hey! How many reps and sets did you do for this particular session?
it depended on what exercise i was doing, but for all of them i did 3 sets of 12-15 reps
Yay! I LOVE the idea of open sky!!
xo

I’m excited to check out your store – you use such fun stuff I wouldn’t think of to buy without a reccomendation
Yay sweet opensky store! They have such a great idea. Awesome way to connect experts and buyers.
PG-13, haha! I want a spiralizer so badly! I’m a wee bit obsessed with the currently!!
How bout any of your favorite workout dvds on opensky?
ohhh good idea. i’ll have to see which ones they can order for me
Yay! I’ve been wanting that spiralizer forever. Maybe now’s the time!
it was destiny
haha i love your response about the juicer…i like this product because it’s hardcore. haha so cute!
it IS hardcore
Your shop so sounds awesome! I too love Juice Beauty products, so I’m excited to see which ones you use.
Haha, messy cars. My car is a complete disaster. My boyfriend keeps our house super clean, which I love, and I always argue that my car is where all my messiness can express itself. Thanks for reminding me I need to clean it
.
Sounds like a great workout! I usually only do a full body workout on a weekend when I have time to waste away at the gym because I like to do lots of exercises and not worry about having to rush somewhere afterwards. I love them though and they’re always so satisfying.
This reminds me that I haven’t made a bfast cookie in a long time! Nice video. Why you so damn cute?
thanks girl!
Have you always used the Excaliber? I really want to get a dehydrator. I’m starting to realize that you can’t make half of the raw recipes without one
I’m a little apprehensive about spending so much on one though.
http://lifelite10.blogspot.com/
yep, it’s the one i’ve used for the past year and a half. it’s my child, really.. i love that thing
I think you should add mesquite to your shop! I’ve been trying to figure out what and where to get some! Thanks.
I just checked out your OpenSky store. Love it!
P.S. My hubby and I have the “PG-13″ item as well! bahaha I had a good laugh when I saw that
please put your millet bread on open sky (if possible)!!!
I love Juice Beauty products, too. The green apple peal is amazing!
I wonder why no one has commented on your “pg 13″ product. I say thanks for sharing Gina and couldn’t agree more haha. It’s also good exercise right
Would love love love it if you put your reusable glass straws in your Open Sky shop.
ohhh that’s a great idea! i’ll see if they can supply them, that would be awesome
[...] to my neighborhood to hit up the gym for a weights session. I did the most recent workout that Gina posted, and it was GLORIOUS. I loved it! I tacked on some extra moves at the end and called it a day. [...]
[...] actually forced myself to go to the gym and completed this workout from The Fitnessista.. [...]
