Week of giveaways: Final Giveaway- ENDED
This week has been pretty much amazeballs. Thank you again to everyone for participating, sending blog love, and for your kind and wonderful comments. I’m truly lucky to *know* all of you, and am also grateful to the companies who generously sponsored the week of giveaways.
Congratulations to the Home Goods giveaway winner!

Please send me your info (fitnessista at gmail dot com, subject: HOME GOODS WINNER!) and I’ll get your prize on the way 🙂
Today’s giveaway, the final one, is sponsored by one of my all-time favorite workout companies, along with Livi and Bella.
I fell in love with Physique 57 two years ago, and if we had a studio in Tucson, it would be one of my regular workout spots. Nothing has made my thighs thighs and biscuits burn quite like P57. I’m so glad they have DVDs you can do at home if you don’t have a studio near you, and I’ve done the DVDs quite a few times in addition to the usual workout suspects. I see and feel a huge difference when I have P57 in my life, and anytime I’m in NY or LA I’m excited to take a live class.
The winner of this giveaway will receive a volume 2 Physique 57 DVD, courtesy of Physique 57,
and will also win a Polar FT40 heart rate monitor, which I’ll order for you,
plus a batch of custom macaroons (chocolate, mocha, blonde, super roon with cacao nibs and goji berries, or Meyer-lemon lavender)
and whatever Whole Foods/TJs goodies find their way into the box 😉
I absolutely love my Polar heart rate monitor and wear it for all of my high-intensity workouts. Since I know how much I’m burning, I can get an idea of how much more I need to eat that day, and I always push myself a little harder when I can see how hard I’m working. It’s a fantastic workout tool and was even more helpful while I was pregnant, so I knew not to let my heart rate get too crazy high.
-With the Summer Shape Up beginning this week, this giveaway will end on FRIDAY, 6/15.
This giveaway has ended! Congratulations to the winner, Natalie.
This is my favorite giveaway so far the DVDs and the polar monitor are some things I have wanted for a very long time but I could never afford them on my own! There are sooo many reasons I have been reading this blog for the past four years but mainly because you offer so much variety! I love the Focus On post, they may be my favorite and I go back to them frequently whenever I’m deciding to try a new fitness class or DVD. I’m only 21 but I love the family post because I take of a baby full time, and you have been very helpful! I would like to see more videos! Things like how to’s (more hair ideas please!) , product reviews, fitness challenges/ quick workout videos. Hope this helps
Thank you so much to all of you for your amazing feedback, comments and sweet wishes. I’m so fortunate to have you in my life, and stay tuned for many more giveaways!
Thank you all so much for reading my little blog and for hanging out with me over here <3
Here’s to another amazing year!
xoxo
I would like to see more recipes. I really enjoy making the sweet potato and black bean chili that you posted on the blog!!
I actually would love to see more workouts…& that’s exactly what you’re doing! So yay!!
Maybe more gluten free recipes too?
I check this blog every day. It’s pretty darn addicting, but what I love fitnessista is that I know there are people out there who enjoy eating healthy and exercising, and I’m not the only crazy one when I say I’d rather have ‘cado with lemon than Doritos which are going to make me feel horrible later. Or that I just feel like doing some strength training–who knows what’ll I’ll feel like? 🙂 But at least I know I’m going to feel good and I have fitnessister support!
I’ve been reading for quite a while and I love the workout reviews/breakdowns. I discovered BodyRock (which I loved w/Zuzanna, but don’t like quite as much anymore). I also enjoy watching your Livvie grow, I have an Olivia too-though mine is 11 !! now-eek! This giveaway was too good to resist, so I had to enter. Good luck and congrats in your next year 🙂
I love your family posts and the eats you have each day (they’re fairly similar to my diet so I appreciate the fact that I can eat pretty much anything – except meat – that you have! Gives me inspiration when I’m stuck in a diet rut). I guess more recipes because I’m greedy that way 🙂
Great giveaway, I’ve been wanting to try this workout ever since I saw it on LIVE with Regis and Kelly a couple years ago! I wish we had the classes near me. I love everything about your blog especially all the Livi posts, I have a daughter just a couple months older then her.
I love reading about your fitness and family!
Pinned your Cookie Dough Cereal!
I liked to see more family posts and how you balance staying fit/taking care of livi/staying sane!
I love seeing you going through your everyday life. I also like the recipes. I’d love more recipes! Getting ideas fro healthy food is always great. I also enjoy the occasional Focus On posts.
I would like to see more meal photos. They are always very interesting. More baby photos are always good too 🙂
All of your posts are awesome! Your workouts are probably my favorites as I love switching it up and love how many at-home options you include! thanks for all you do, you’re awesome girl!
What an amazing giveaway! I would love to have the dvds as I move my workouts indoors more often as the summer heats up. And the macaroons make me swoon.
I love your how-to posts for your hair. I haven’t quite mastered the waterfall braid, but I’ll keep trying. The relaxed waves post and the hot rollers post had some great tips as well. Keep it up! Can’t wait for the post about how to wear long hair during a workout to keep it looking great even after a sweaty workout is over.
I’m not sure I have a favorite thing… This is one of my favorite blogs and has been for years! I definitely love the family stuff!
I love your blog! Mostly the workout/ meal plan series. I’m excited to begin summer shape up!
Holy awesome giveaway! It’s so hard to give feedback on a blog that does so well. I would say what I miss most that you’ve had in the past is new dinner recipes, but I know it’s been hard to spend a lot of time in the kitchen with your new family! Please keep up with what you’re doing… your blog is amazing, and thank you for Summer Shape Up!
I love your blog- I don’t think there’s anything I would change. I’m excited to try out the workouts in your summer shape up! (such a great idea!)
I love the summer shape up plan!! I can’t wait to try it.
I love the day in pictures– your family is so cute 🙂
I love your blog! I love that you have family stuff in a different spot but I’d love if you mentioned and linked at the bottom of your regular posts you’ve updated over there. I also love all of your recipes!
i <3 pinterest… of course i had to pin your bfast cookie dough cereal– my fave way to start my day!!
I love your blog and think you do a great job balancing between different topics but I would never complain about more recipes – you come up with such great ideas!
Love the workouts! Maybe more recipes??
I would love to see more recipes. The ones I’ve tried have always been delicious, and I love knowing I can come to your blog for something that’s tasty and good for me. And of course I love seeing updates with Liv and The Pilot! I actually wouldn’t mind a guest post from him (if he’d do it!) about how life has been for him since Liv was born. Would be interesting to read more about a dad’s perspective, too.
Otherwise, I love everything you’re doing! And I smile whenever I see you wearing the new Lulu shorts because I have the same ones. In fact, I’m wearing them right now!
I pinned my fave recipe – the breakfast cookie! http://pinterest.com/samanthaxrachel/breakfast-beauties/
I posted on Facebook! http://www.facebook.com/checkmypulseblog
I love the family posts! I’d like to see more pictures of ‘Livi in the next year.. 😉 and more recipes! Some of our eats don’t match up, but some do and it’s always nice to see a new way to make something.
I love the whole blog – I’m pretty new to it but I’ve become hooked. Its great to see a combo of fitness, recipes, and life. Its awesome!

I love your blog cause I love TJ s just like you and slowly got hooked onto reading your daily posts. I read many blogs at one time but yours has been the only fitness one I have stuck onto till today.
My suggestions for improvement would be to post some more recipes…can’t get engh of those…
Love your Livi posts too.
Regards
Love your blog your such an inspiration, I would love to see some more pilot posts!
I love the Focus On posts, and also love seeing the various meals of foods you eat – you’re definitely able to balance healthy and interesting eating, home meals/restaurant/take-out/social gathering eats etc and it’s inspiring.
I absolutely love the workout suggestions. You take out the hardest part for me – which is to come up with a workout plan. This may totally seem random but I would love to see more book reviews (you cover everything else so well)!
Thank you for all of the time and energy you put into the blog!
I love family posts! I want to see more of the family stuff!
I love reading the Family section and would love to see more adorable photos of Livi!
i love the recipes….share your macaroon recipe!!!!
I love your blog so much – I love the recipes and the workouts, family posts and fashion posts! Most of all? I love(and of course the pics of your sweet babies!!) your dedication- it is a lot of work to blog every day, let alone twice a day! You completely rock and I take away.so much from this blog. Thank you so much!
The only suggestion I have is to have a spot with all of your recipe links, rather than just your favorite, because they all rock!!
I would like to see more photos of Livi! It’s incredible to watch a baby’s transformation into a little toddler and she’s so adorable to watch!
Also, more recipes would be great…but only when some free time comes your way 🙂
I love your blog I check it multiple times a day! You were the first fitness blog I ever read and now I have a huge blog roll and I’m addicted! I think you have a really great balance of workouts, food, and a mix of your personal life. One thing I would looove is more workout charts to pin and take to the gym.
I love the workout tips and the breakfast cookie. You inspired me to make changes in my lifestyle nd I have never been healthier!!!
I want to see more livi and your family! I love reading about ur I’ll cutie pie!
My favorite recipe is your amazeballs! Though I have a strong feeling I would LOVE your macaroons which is why I need to win this giveaway! :b
I like your black bean burgers. And I’d like to see more about joyful living.
I love your blog! I think you have a great balance of workouts, recipes and family life. I would love more recipes on the food page so that they are super easy to find. But I’d also be completely happy if you change absolutely nothing. You rock!
I love your “Focus on” posts! Always a great way to learn about different workouts – you got me hooked on Turbo Fire!
I came across your blog not too long ago but since then have been checking back everyday. So far I’m enjoying all the variety you do offer, but I’m a big fan of healthy recipes.
Honestly, I think you have a truly winning formula for your blog as proven by your generally loving and loyal followers so keep up the great work! Having said that, I never get sick of new quick and healthy recipes that are simple but tasty.
I would love me some of those famous roons and I desperately need a heart rate monitor so hoping for the best but most importantly wish you continued success!
I’d love to hear more behind the scenes stories about being a personal trainer!
I want more recipe AND more family posts! 😉 Off to find a recipe to pin… (AKA a recipe I have not pinned yet…). <3
awesome giveaway!! I would love to see more workouts and more recipes.
I love seeing all your mommy stuff, I (28) have 2 kids myself n its nice to see someone else that has a little one and has time to do it all :))
