I know this is crazy two posts in one day but summer is coming and that means it’s time for the annual SELF Workout in the Park! I was lucky enough to attend SELF magazine’s Workout in the Park back in 2010, sadly I was not in town last year but I can’t wait to go again this year! I met some amazing people when I went the last time and I am really looking forward to this year.
This is SELF magazine’s 19th Annual Workout in the Park event. It takes place on Saturday, May 12, from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at Rumsey Playfield in New York. It will happen rain or shine! SELF Workout in the Park features a full day of hands-on workouts and workshops. You can also enjoy a sampling of healthy and delicious foods, indulge in mini-spa services, demo the latest beauty and fitness products and score lots of free samples and goodies courtesy of SELF’s sponsors. This year the workout in the park will be hosted by Dolvett Quince, celebrity trainer on The Biggest Loser. Workouts are provided and led by Crunch and this year there is even a Reebok Zone where you can do a Crossfit WOD. Some of the workouts they will have this year are: Ab Attack, Fly Girls, Sucker Punch, and Tabura. To see the entire class schedule click here.
Tickets for the event are $20 but it includes a one-year subscription to SELF magazine. You can not purchase tickets on site so you must buy them online ahead of time. So grab some girlfriends and come to Central Park to check out this fun event, I will be there (most likely in hot pink).
I am excited to announce that one Shape Up NYC reader can win a SELF Fit Kit (valued at $200) and a pass to the SELF Workout in the Park! Inside the FIt kit you will find: SELF magazines, ear buds, an official WIP water bottle, fitness DVDs, month-long membership to Crunch and many more promotional items from sponsors like Garnier, Calvin Klein, Luna, La Roche-Posay, and lucy). One of my favorite things is the tote bag from lucy.

Magazines, some feel they are a waste of money, I feel that they are wonderful form of entertainment on the subway. I mean if you are buying magazines in the store, you may as well get a subscription ($5 in store for 1 issue or $12 for the year for 12 issues) you tell me what’s better, $1 an issue or $5 an issue.
With all the fabulous magazines out their it is hard to decide what to buy. So one month I decided to buy all of the top health and wellness magazines. Some included: Self, Fitness, Shape, Women’s Health, Health, Cooking Light, Muscle and Fitness Hers, Oxygen, and Prevention. Out of all of these I have picked my favorites and I am sharing them with you. I will put them in the order that I like them and will add more to the list if I find any other great ones.
Because Women’s Health had such an amazing magazine this month I have decided I need to share it with you! 1 lucky reader will get a year’s subscription to Women’s Health Magazine compliments of me! All you have to do is spread the word about my blog! The more times you do things the better chance you have of winning. Things you can do to win:
