As we make our way through the festive season, it's hard to believe another year is drawing to an end. And if Oprah gets to have her annual list of favourite things then so can I! To celebrate the festive season, here are some of my favourite things for the year.
1. FAVOURITE FITNESS APPS
NIKE Training Club
What It Is: This app features more than 100 full-body - 15, 30 and 45 minute workouts (complete with step-by-step audio, visual, and video demos) from some of the world’s most inspirational female athletes, trainers, and celebrities.
Why It's Cool: Get lean, get toned, get strong: You choose! Tailored workout programs make this app uniquely functional, regardless of your fitness goals. Whether you’re opting for a 4-week program tailored to your abilities or supplementing your regular workout sessions, this app goes above and beyond basic instructions to measure your progress in number of workouts, minutes logged, and average calories burned.
Cost: Free. Available for iOS and Android.
Argus
What It Is: Argus tracks everything — and we mean everything — 24/7. The app monitors every step, stride, cycle, bite, sip, pound, snore, and more. Constantly processing your daily routine, Argus produces detailed charts that can help you make sense of numerous bio-feedback data points to reach your health goals and improve overall wellbeing.
Why It's Cool: Argus is pretty much a health diary you don’t have to remind yourself to write in. It allows you to uncover important trends in your personal health habits that you didn’t even know were there. Not only is the interface sleek and intuitive, but Argus is easy on the battery (even for a 24/7 monitor).
Cost: Free. Available for iOS.
2. FAVOURITE FOODS
Freshii
Freshii is a fast-food franchise that focuses on custom built fresh food. Founded in 2005 by Canadian Matthew Corrin, Freshii allows customers to choose from a wide selection of chef-designed items, or create their own salad, wrap, bowl or soup with over 70 fresh ingredients and dressings.
Freshii is available in over 60 cities and 12 countries worldwide with more stores to open in the future.
B in the Raw @ POD Espresso
B in the Raw are a range of delicious treats with hidden superpowers (created by a talented friend of mine). With no artificial sugars and preservatives, these treats are made with the best ingredients including raw vegan protein powder and Chinese medicinal powders. And depending on the season, additional super ingredients are added (eg. during spring and high pollen periods, the inclusion of herbs and powders with high antihistamine properties too)
Available at POD Espresso @ 305 Bay Street, Brighton, Melbourne, there are usually two protein ball flavours each week, a raw protein bar and some raw cakes as well.
Here are some of the goodies you can try:
Acai Bowl Raw Cake
Raw Caramel Slice
Neapolitan Raw Cake
Key Lime Pie Balls
Tumeric Lemon Balls
Just Salad
Just Salad is a fast-food franchise that provides quality, healthy food in a fast, responsible, yet affordable way. The specially designed menu has been created with the expertise of registered dietitian and chef, Laura Pensiero. The culmination of Laura's culinary and nutritional knowledge ensures the following promises:
With 20 stores spread across New York, New Jersey, Hong Kong and the United Arab Emirates, a truly healthy meal is not too far away. Just Salad understands the importance of providing complete and accurate nutrition information to their customers and provide this in the form of a nutritional portal on their website which can be used in three different ways:
