ConfidenceKini Day 1

This weekend the sun finally came out, and I definitely was not tanned or skinny enough to cope with the sudden appearance of sunshine. Plenty of brands and gyms are getting ready to release their “get ready for summer workout plans”. Usually I do the Tone It Up Bikini Series (which starts May 7 and lasts 8 weeks), however this year I’m giving Lauren Gleisberg’s ConfidenceKini a try. ConfidenceKini is only 5 weeks long – which makes it easier to follow, the food is REAL food you’ll want to eat and the workouts are challenging but do not last for hours. Oh yeah and there is a killer ab workout as well. The challenge officially started yesterday, so I thought I would post my accountability here. For the next five weeks on Tuesday’s I will give a recap of my previous week, however follow along at Petitefitnessista on Instagram to stay up to date with how the challenge is going for me, what I am eating everyday and if I am keeping up with workouts. Are you doing any fitness challenges?

P.S. before and after photos will be revealed at the end of the 5 weeks!

Confidential Review

 Had a little double date night Saturday when we went to see Maks – Val – Peta Confidential at the Fox Theatre. If you don’t know Confidential features ABC’s Dancing with the Stars Maksim Chmerkovskiy, Valentin Chmerkovskiy and Peta Murgatroyd. The show is designed to give you a little inside look into their lives and loves. The show reveals secrets, dreams and hopes that they have –  oh and a little Chip n’ Val show in between. Ladies I’m talking every girls dream here, fire turnout gear, hoses and hot dancing…. yup you’re not going to want to miss this. In this show you will not see any traditional dancing it’s very energetic and flashy so if you are looking for a tango you won’t find it in this show. If you’re looking for amazing dancing with some rockin’ bodies – this is the show for you.

Restaurant Review: Supino Pizzeria

 

Located on Russell Street in the heart of Eastern Market you’ll find Supino Pizzeria. Let me tell you, if you like New York style greasy thin crust pizza this is the place for you. Andrew and I checked it out before seeing Cinderella a few weeks back and both really enjoyed it. Since we were very short on time we just ordered slices instead of an entire pizza. I got my slice with cheese only and he got his with pepperonis. Where should we try pizza at next? 

Are You Keeping Up with the Change?

In a world where technology changes by the day, can you keep up? Is your company performing to the best of its ability, and getting to actually know the consumer? I mean really know the consumer? Do you know where they’re from? They’re age or how they use your website? If the answer is no have no fear there are tools to help you get the information you need to have your business perform at its highest ability. Companies and brands are using things such as embedded analytics to get the information that will be most useful to them. I’m sure you’ve heard of Google Analytics, where you can find out who is on your site, which page they’re on where they are from and so much more. Knowing key components of analytics is what is going to help you take your business, brand or company to the next level. Use Google analytics along side embedded analytics to get the most performance driven information. Some believe that since they’re business has been doing find for the past X amount of years that they don’t have to evolve with the change, and that’s just not the case. Without change, restructuring and knowing who is actually on your website you’re setting your business up for complete failure. Just because something worked in 2000 does not mean it’s going to work in 2018. Analytics, SEO and more have evolved greatly and it’s time for you to make that change as well. Will you make the change? Will you take the next step and bring your business to the top of its game? Make it appear on the first page of a google search. Will you work on paid ads and campaigns across the internet to draw attention to your company? If you can’t do the things needed to improve your companies value, then are you willing to hire someone to take charge and learn the trends? It’s absolutely critical that you know who is on your website and what they’re doing. If people are staying for mere seconds you need to figure out what you’re doing wrong. If you have a shopping cart and people are bailing on the shopping cart see why they’re bailing and figure out how you can fix it. Be proactive and take your business to the next level. I once worked for a company who wouldn’t listen to what its employees were saying and the site completely failed because they didn’t learn the customer, they were charging extra for no reason and it just steered consumers into the arms of our competition including ME because I couldn’t even figure out how to navigate the site. So are you staying still or moving with the time?
