Workout enthusiast Jodi Rigotti discusses the latest exercise trends and reveals her secrets for success at the gym.

Dan and I have been on this kick for awhile now that before we buy food at the supermarket, we read the label to make sure we can pronounce everything that's in that particular food. We've made some great switches after making realizations such as: Is it
I'm all about fiber. From my high-fiber breakfast cereal in the morning to my constant consumption of fruits and vegetables, I'm certainly at no loss for it. And I know that fiber serves so many important purposes, from disease prevention to weight manage
So it's offiicial. Dan and I have decided to train for a half marathon in September. A whopping 13 miles. When I think about it, I get excited and nervous all at the same time. There's no way I'd be able to run 13 miles right now, but when I started runni

When it comes to diet and nutrition, one thing I know for sure about myself is...if it's in front of me, I'm going to eat it. Which is precisely why, as I'm loading up my bags to go stay in in a house in Hudson N.Y. with a few of my friends (before headin

This Sunday morning (before we see the family for Mother's Day), Dan and I have our next race -- a 5-miler. I'm a little nervous because, as I've said, I only really started seriousl running a couple of months ago. And for whatever reason, running just d
I'm vacationing in Florida for a long weekend and LOVING the sunny, warm weather. Yesterday I decided to go for a run, but let me tell you...this 85 degree weather makes it VERY TOUGH to run hard and for a long time.?I ended up doing more of a walk/run, b

Treat your body like the temple it is.
I'm a happy and healthy 29-year old who values her relationships with friends and family. I ADORE dogs and am counting down the days until Dan and I get one. I'm pretty obsessed with nutrition (I'll talk your ear off any day about the wonders of juicing) and am also determined to get into the shape of my life. My new love? Running!
