Do you head to the gym before breakfast? While some prefer eating before a workout to prevent nausea, others utilize exercising on an empty stomach as a way to reach weight-loss goals. As it turns out, a fasted workout (working out on an empty stomach) has some serious advantages, scientifically speaking. "I personally love fasted workouts," said Precision Nutrition coach and personal trainer Austin Lopez, CSCS."They feel hard at first, but your body gets used to it and soon you prefer it." Let's get into those benefits. 44268732 It's an Easier Way to "Fast" Ever wonder why the first meal of the day is called "breakfast"? Has the light bulb turned on yet? OK, great. You've been fasting this whole time . . . you're just sleeping through it! "I suggest working out first thing in the morning when you've already naturally 'fasted' while you sleep," said clinical nutritionist Autumn Bates, CCN, CPT. She explained that you can reap the benefits of fasting..

We already knew that wedding expenses were no joke, but we're now close to reconsidering our dream nuptials thanks to 2017's figures. The Knot released its annual Real Weddings Study, which breaks down the average amount 13,000 US couples spent on their big days last year. The survey found that the average wedding cost was $33,391 — and that's excluding the honeymoon! How is that possible? Turns out that the biggest chunk of participating couples' budgets were spent on the wedding venue ($15,163), followed by the engagement ring ($5,764) and reception band ($4,019). But there are a ton of other details to keep in mind, also: 23603315 Photographer: $2,630 Florist: $2,379 Ceremony site: $2,311 Wedding planner: $1,988 Videographer: $1,912 Wedding dress: $1,509 Rehearsal dinner: $1,285 Reception DJ: $1,231 Transportation: $830 Ceremony musicians: $761 Wedding cake: $540 Invitations: $408 Groom's attire: $286 Officiant: $284 Wedding favors: $252 C..

One of the most consistent items on my personal to-do list is to do more yoga. It's always been something I wished I was more into, as I noticed my friends, who became die=hard yogis, seemed more mentally sane and physically fit. Yoga seemed like a great workout, since all it felt like I was doing for a full hour was playing an adult game of Twister. I left yoga classes feeling happy and a wee bit more flexible than when I came in. But when it comes time to picking and choosing my workout for the day, I usually ditch taking a yoga class and take a high-intensity workout class instead with the thought that it will be more of a calorie burner and a body shaper than a Vinyasa. I began to wonder: can yoga help with weight loss or should I stick with boot-camp-style classes instead? 44549710 Heather L. Tyler, an NSCA-certified personal trainer, says that even a higher-intensity power yoga class won't burn enough calories by itself to reduce weight. "However, yoga is tremendously ..

Unless you're one of those lucky (and possibly insane) people who can literally hop right out of bed in the morning, most of us need a little help to get going. And Starbucks, a staple across the country with quintessential coffee drinks and secret-menu options, is the go-to spot for a lot of people to get their caffeine fix. For some Starbucks-goers, the classic white cup just doesn't accurately reflect their moods. While the contents of the cup might be the same, the reason for needing it varies. Tired? Annoyed? Over the mom drama in the school drop-off line? Instead of having to spell your name for the barista only for them to probably get it wrong anyway, these personalized Starbucks cups ($13) let you customize everything. There are 24 different colors, and you can really have fun with what you put on it. Our personal favorites are Molly's Sass Juice and Rochelle's Attitude Adjustment.
