My husband and I have been on a lifestyle wellness change for over two years now. Since we are having to learn healthy habits in our adulthood, it has been trial and error on what works for us. The first thing we did was overhaul our diet. Then I started on cardio while my husband focused more our weight training. We both lost 30 to 40 pounds, but then we plateaued. We were able to keep the weight off, but we weren't losing anymore. And then we found CrossFit and it has seriously been a game changer and the best investment in our health we have ever made.

So now we consider ourselves gym nuts. We have also found some products along the way that have been game changers as well. If you know someone in your life who is on a fitness journey, then here are some awesome gift ideas they will be sure to enjoy!

We all want our babies to grow up to become cogent individuals, able to take on whatever cognitive challenges that they face as adults. At the very least, we want them to have the raw brainpower to get through school and perhaps get a college degree.

As parents, it’s only natural to wonder whether there’s anything that we can do to help develop their minds. While much of an infant’s intelligence is biologically determined, research suggests that parents can play a pivotal role in ensuring that they achieve various developmental “milestones.”

Here’s what to do if you want your baby to be smart.
