I think that training with ankle weights is something that is largely ignored by individuals interested in fitness. However, there are some serious benefits to be had when it comes to using weights on one’s extremities. The 20 pound weight of these ankle weights is just enough to create some serious resistance and allow individuals to gain muscle mass on the aforementioned part, as well as on the calf and…
Singer/Songwriter Andi Starr releases her highly-anticipated album The World Will Follow. This time around, Starr presents an electrifying experience with tracks guaranteed to spark your soul. Starr’s musical success has been a far from easy climb. As a child, Starr preferred to hide in the shadows when it came to public speaking. It wasn’t until several years later, and working as a mental health therapist that Starr decided it was…

Mark of Love is a movie that has came out of nowhere. The film is based around a similarly unknown British play (I love you!…And you…and you) and features a cast of unknown (but still impressive) actors to push forward the storyline. Mark is the lead character and is played by Bryan Price; Mark has a tremendously hard time staying in relationships. When ey is shot down yet again, Mark…
Everyone is familiar with the plain Crocs shoes. However, I do not know if these same individuals are familiar with the other offerings that Crocs provides. There are some pretty functional shoes to be had here, and our favorite would have to be the Patricia. The Patricia is a muted sandal that is available in a number of different color options, but has little more to it besides a few…
Ed Wood is known by many to be one of the best Z-list movie makers in history, but aside from the feature that was released about eir life, I do not know how many of these individuals have actually seen anything having to do with the director eirself. Smore Entertainment has just released a massive compendium of Wood’s films and has bundled it with other television specials. This 6-DVD set…
Capezio provides pretty much all of the clothing that individuals will want if they are active in any sort of dancing, but I feel as if their appeal should be a little wider than that. This is due to the quality and care that the company takes in creating their apparel. The grade of fabric that is used in the Capezio Boy Shorts is strong enough to take rapid and…
Jason Statham is rapidly becoming one of the best action actors currently on the market. Blitz is a film that firmly solidifies this, as it is a non-stop tour de force that will provide viewers with a tremendous amount of chills. The quality of the video on the Blu-Ray is simply stunning; with the right television, one will feel as if they are watching Blitz at the movie theatre. Blitz…
This film will be eaten up by anyone that is a fan of traditional karate films or of strong female-centered movies like Sucker Punch or Kill Bill. The hyper-realistic style of the film is matched well by the utter craziness that is present on-screen practically from beginning to end. Panna Rittikrai links together a number of the most famous current martial arts stars and gives them a chance to shine…
The Prophecy 3 was perhaps the best Prophecy movie created in the franchise, and Echo Bridge has been tapped with crafting a proper adaptation of the film to the Blu-Ray format. I feel that the work the company has done to bring the flick to 2011 is without reproach; what they have produced here is a great version of a classic film without a high price tag. This 2000 film…
These shorts will do an individual fine through the course of a couple years, rather than through a season or less. This is due to the fact that Dickies has made these shorts rough and tumble, using a solid grade of denim and good stitch work. These shorts will not go out of fashion, either – they have a medium cut that is able to accentuate all sides without hanging…
The amount of vim and vigor that the human spirit has present is something that no scientist could measure, but the willpower that certain individuals can exert will astonish even the most skeptical. Living Is Winning showcases one of these individuals, Andrew Johnson. Johnson’s desire is to win the Ironman Lake Placid, a race in which ey was knocked out of back in 2004. Laid low with a severe injury,…

We have never had the chance up to this point to provide coverage of a product like Twinlab’s Electrolyte Fuel. We have covered pre and post workout powders and enough pills to sink a ship, but the revolutionary thing about the Electrolyte Fuel is its ease of use. In a convenient spray format, the Electrolyte Fuel will allow those working out the additional energy they need to properly finish their…

The sheer amount of different vodkas that are on the market will boggle one’s mind. However, many of these just taste as if someone put some artificial flavoring into grain alcohol. Out of all of the companies that do flavored vodkas, it seems as if UV is one of the few that continually puts effort into their product. Their newest product, their UV Cake Vodka, is a perfect example of…
