Now, he has become the first in the world to launch a digital fitness music label called Don’t Quit Music. It was reported in Muscle and Body Magazine that he said,
“I’m passionate about music. It gets me extra motivated during my own workouts, and I’ll listen to anything from Frank Sinatra to Kanye West…. When it came to fitness programs, music always seemed to be an afterthought. It was all cover artists and it sounded canned. So about a year ago I decided to get involved in the music end of things. I went to Universal Music Group and pitched them my idea of a digital fitness label, and we launched Don’t Quit! Music this past January.”
Universal Music Group creates workout mixes for all types of fitness programs such as yoga, pilates, moutain biking and weight training.

“I train at 3:45 in the morning, six days a week, and my workouts are a combination of strength and cardio training. My workouts take 42 minutes and they give me all the energy I need to last the rest of the day.”
Jake Steinfeld is an inspiration to us all.

Bridget Marquardt, Playboy Playmate and one of the Girls Next Door has a new travel adventure series where she visits the world’s best beaches. Bridget spoke with Muscle and Body Magazine about her new show that debuted this spring and how she stays in shape while filming. When asked about the adventurous aspects of the show she said she was thrilled:
“It’s so much an adventure. We’ve done cliff jumping, hiking, volleyball on the beach, jet skiing, weight boarding. It’s been very cool. I’m getting my workout in, and I’m doing my dream job. What more could a girl ask for?”
When asked how she maintains her bikini body she replied,
“I do a lot of different types of workouts. Now I’m doing trapeze bungee jumping, and it is amazing. It’s kind of Cirque Du Soleil style, where I have the trapeze bar but I’m attached by bungees. Three minutes of the bungee trapeze is the equivalent of walking a mile. It’s intense. I do it for about a half hour at a place called Hollywood Aerial Arts in L.A. And here at the mansion, we set up a trapeze right in the backyard. It’s not bungee, but I’m able to get all of my strength training. I do shoulder shrugs, I hang upside down on the bar and do abs, which I’ve gotten really good at.”
She went on to give some further details about her trapeze and jump rope workouts:
“I try to keep it varied. My workout of choice would always be trapeze, because there are different things you can do when you’re doing that. I do trapeze for about an hour and 15 minutes to an hour and a half. When I work out at the gym at home, I try to keep it to usually an hour — maybe 45 minutes on the elliptical rider and then 15 minutes of abs and stretching. Jumping rope is more like a half-hour workout. I take about 15 minutes to do 500 jumps. If I throw in abs and 1,000 jumps, it’s about 45 minutes. It’s not something you have to do all at once. I usually do, like, 100 jumps, go answer a couple of e-mails, then come back and do another 100 jumps. You can’t do 1,000 jumps straight. I’m in pretty good shape, but I can do only maybe 300 at once and then I need a break. Once you build up your heart rate, then let it go down, then build it up again, that’s great for you. I’ve also found that stretching is important. Sometimes when I can’t get in a workout, if I just lay down on the floor or bed in the hotel room and just stretch a little bit, I feel so much better.”

For those of you into the club scene you most definitely remember this song and the controversy it caused amongst politicians, parents women’s liberation groups.

“They have these CrossFit gyms where you have medicine balls, weight-lifting, rowing machines, [and] obstacle courses. I recommend going!”
She’s right. Intense interval training is an effective and efficient way to burn fat because it keeps the body guessing and it doesn’t get accustom to the same movements and heart rate. No pain, no gain!

There’s nothing ugly about the Ugly Betty star Rebecca Romijn. As a formal model and now actress she’s like all the other celebrities who some how have miracle bodies, even after having children. This month in InStyle Magazine, Romijn was asked how she lost her baby weight after the birth of her now 5-month-old twins, Rebecca Rose and Charlie Tamara Tulip. As for her post-baby curves she said they make her
“feel as sexy as I have ever felt.”

Five months later, Romijn looks great, but she did say that she is larger than she was before:
“I’m a jeans size up from where I usually am,” she says, “but there’s nothing about it that freaks me out.

Biggest Loser host, Alison Sweeney, did a quick video on Us Magazine showing some workout tips that can be done in the home. She also took a moment to promote the Ninentendo Wii EA Sports Active. In all honesty, it was a rather odd little video but at least we get to learn a few exercise pointers.
She filmed the video in a bathroom where she had a tiled floor surface for ease of movement. For the first exercise tip she stood on two folded hand towels and demonstrated sliding the legs open and closed in a scissor motion. Doing this repetitively creates a lot of resistance and is good for the inner and outer thighs.

The I Kissed A Girl singer Katy Perry is currently on tour and an Ok Magazine blogger caught up with her recently and asked how she stays in shape while she’s traveling so much. Although she does a lot of dancing on stage, in order to get into those little outfits she surely does something else. Katy responded,
“When I want to get in shape, I jump rope. It’s rhythmic and it’s so easy and I can listen to music while I do it and I can jump rope for a half an hour straight. It’s really exciting.”
