Liz Golf Plus Size Golf Capris and Crops
March 14, 2010 by CJ · Leave a Comment
One of the things I learned my first year of golfing is that a quality pair of golf shorts, golf capris or even a great fitting golf skort are essential. There is nothing worse than playing 18 holes of golf in pants that bind, show perspiration or don’t have pockets for spare golf balls, tees or your glove. In other words, make the investment! I was so happy to find that my favorite designer, Liz Claiborne, has a line of golf apparel specifically for the plus size athlete. You can now find the great Liz quality in golf pants in sizes 14W, 16W, 18W, 20W, 22W and 24W. They come in a variety of colors, fabrics and styles, too.

Liz Claiborne Plus Size Ladies Golf Shirts

With golf season right around the corner I am looking to replace some of last year’s favorites (that look like they were favorites) with some new golf shirts. I just discovered that Liz Claiborne, one of my favorite designers, has an entire line of plus sized women’s golf apparel. The golf shirts come in 1X (14-16W), 2X (18-20W) and 3X (22-24W) so you can look great and still feel like you have the fit you need. I love that you can get a sleeveless version with wicking fabric, too.

Wednesday Workout – Slide Board Training
February 10, 2010 by CJ · Leave a Comment
Last night on The Biggest Loser one of the challenges was a workout using a slide board – the contestants had to glide back and forth and log 500 repetitions – the first one there won immunity for the evening.
Slideboards are a great way to activate a wide range of muscles in a unique and no-impact way. Traditionally you think of the lateral motion used by ice skaters and hockey players but as you can see in the video below, slideboards are great for doing regular lunges forward and back, side lunges and the lateral slides.
Slide board workouts are very efficient as they engage large muscle groups and your core at the same time – you can burn around 225 calories in a single 20 minute workout.
If you don’t want to actually get a full slide board system you can purchase Valslides and use them on regular carpeted surfaces as well as tile or linoleum. Valslides come in a travel bag making them perfect for workouts anywhere and when you are limited on space – even in your hotel room.
Both slide board training and its more portable option, the Valslide, are excellent tools for mixing up your workouts and developing long, lean muscles.
