TIP TUESDAY: Mixing It Up the Right Way

May 15, 2012 By SKo-Fit Leave a Comment

Recently, the New York Times featured a growing trend among New York fitness fanatics – working out two to three times day! I am not talking about working out at the gym but rather taking fitness classes at different boutique studios. These women are professionals with full-time jobs, who manage to find time to squeeze in these workouts. Some trekking from one class and across town to another. You have to admire their dedication because that is some serious motivation! To meet this demand of mix-and- match workouts, FITiST was created by owner Neda Talebian Funk, offering class packages at partnering studios.

Sex by Dr. Seuss

May 12, 2012 By Guest Writer Leave a Comment

Thank you to our friends at Sex, Cigars & Booze Lifestyle Magazine for their Dr. Seuss themed poem: Sex…

I would like it here or there.
I would like it anywhere.

I will do it in a car.
I will do it under a star.

TIP TUESDAY: Letting Go

May 8, 2012 By SKo-Fit Leave a Comment

As a yoga teacher, I try to constantly evolve in my practice, which does not stop the second I step off my mat. As I mentioned before, yoga is more than a physical practice (see TIP TUESDAY: Myths vs Facts About Yoga). It translates to how you live your daily life, which can be incredibly hard, even for me. The best way to describe this translation is from the Yoga Sutras 1.12-1.16: Practice and Non-Attachment. Practice and non-attachment are the two core principles on which the system of yoga rests. These two work hand-in-hand, with non-attachment as the essential companion to practice. What does this all mean?

His Thoughts: Is sex better when she initiates it?

May 5, 2012 By Bobby Brooks 1 Comment

I am an old school lover. I believe in opening a door for a lady when we approach one, offering my seat to a woman who is standing, remembering to put the toilet seat down and, of course, helping my lady to orgasm first. The latter belief may be more from the “New School” of thought than the “Old School” one, and I can not truthfully swear that I am successful at it 100 percent of the time. But I give it the old college try every time and I definitely believe that it’s the gentlemanly, as well as the intelligent, thing to do.

Sexpert: Is sex better when she initiates it?

May 5, 2012 By Sexpert Krystal Leave a Comment

Let’s all be honest here, sex is sex. I could care less who starts it because as long as it’s going up, going in and going on, I think everyone is happy! But if you really want to know what I think, well… I’ll say that a man initiating sexy time is so much hotter.

TIP TUESDAY: Learn to Disconnect

Smartphones have made us too accessible. Everywhere you look, people are glued to their cell phone, oblivious to their surroundings. As a result, some have a hard time disconnecting even at the gym!

Sexpert: Guys Like Tight Spaces

April 28, 2012 By Sexpert Krystal 2 Comments

Guys like tight spaces ~ one reason they are attracted to anal sex so much. If you’re not the kind of woman who’ll let him touch the exit sign, that’s perfectly fine but you better make sure your enter sign is not a French double door. No one likes a loose vagina! It’s not good for the man and it’s certainly not good for the woman. Neither can feel as much stimulation if it’s like a pinball machine down there. What can you do?

Bride to Mrs. ~ Am I becoming a runner?

April 28, 2012 By Mrs. Jen Leave a Comment

Hi Everyone!

I have to have a proud wife moment for one second! Last Sunday, Mike completed his seventh marathon in under four hours! We got to travel for it once again but this one was extra special because it was where my parents live. As many of you know, Mike just ran the Chicago marathon in October but he really wanted to participate in this one because it was San Luis Obispo’s ignaugural marathon. My dad’s hospital – French Medical Center – was a huge sponsor so it meant a lot to my dad too to have his son in-law run it!

TIP TUESDAY: Get A Pedicure!

April 24, 2012 By theBrideScoop Editor Leave a Comment

In preparation for writing this article, I googled ugly toes. I dare you. Just don’t do it when you are eating… I am scarred for life at what I saw! Really, really bad. So, I will save you from the worst ugly toe photos but here is one that I bet looks like a lot of your little piggies - not horrible but definitely not cute!
