Lately she has been the talk of the town thanks to her new breast implants but her father thinks that it’s more important to note that she has been putting on weight and exercising regularly. Previously she was feared to be anorexic as she was bone thin because of the drug consumption but she now has her appetite back. Her father said,

“And they say she’s anorexic? You can see with your own eyes that she’s put on a lot of weight and how well she’s doing.”

Georgie Thompson Has New Fitness Website

Across the pond there’s another celebrity profiting from a fitness website; Sky Sports presenter, Georgie Thompson. She follows in the footsteps of other celebs like Jillian Michaels with loads of fitness products,  Tracy Anderson with a fitness website offering exercise tips and products to buy, as well as Gwyneth Paltrow who has a site with fashion, diet and exercise tips. Georgie teamed up with personal trainer Cat Dugdale to create a website for lazy girls who prefer cocktails to cardio, iamsuperchik.com.
The site already has approximately 10,000 members from the US, UK and Australia who each pay a monthly fee to get access to workout videos and exercises that incorporate household chores. One such exercise can be seen above where Dugdale is doing lunges while sweeping. Thompson said,
“It’s much harder during the winter to motivate yourself up off the sofa and out of the house to do any form of fitness. That’s why we devised a way for women to hibernate and get fit at the same time using our home training videos.”
This affordable and assessable website is cheaper than a gym membership and who wouldn’t want to bake a cake and get a good chest workout at the same time? A clean home means a fit woman.

Mel-B’s New Fitness Class

The former Spice Girl Mel-B isn’t leaving the stage necessarily but instead of performing in a stadium in front of thousands she plans to become a qualified fitness trainer and teach classes based on the DVD she launched in early 2009.  The 34-year-old has plans to complete a two-month course to get qualified and then she’ll start her high-energy class soon after.  A source told the Daily Mirror,
“(Brown) has never felt fitter, faster or stronger. Unlike some celebrities who endorse fad diets and daft fitness regimes, Mel is into old-fashioned sweat and tears to get results. “She’s had a few PT (personal training) sessions and decided to get qualified herself and help others achieve the perfect body.”
Mel-B is currently an ambassador for Fitness First, a UK-based gym with outlets around the world, and she is also working with industry experts to create her Totally Fit class that will be a high-octane, fast-paced class that will surely give results.
