Fitness

Q.Jennie, please clear this up for me: what's the difference between softball and baseball?
A.
Basically softball is a bigger ball and we play with smaller dimensions. We pitch underhand while baseball pitchers throw over hand.


Q.Did you ever dream you'd make it to the Olympics? It must've been surreal for you!
A.
Wearing USA across my chest was something I dreamt about for a long long time! Its the biggest stage in sport. A true honor!

Q.At what point did you feel you had really made it as a female baseball star?
A.
There was a moment when I was in college and was asked to pose with Randy Johnson and Curt Schilling for a photo that I just couldn’t believe it was happening. But I have to say that standing alongside my idols like Lisa Fernandez on the gold medal podium in the 2004 Olympics, that was a huge moment for me.

Q.You became somewhat of an athletic sex symbol as you rose to softball stardom. Flattering or not?
A.
For me it was always about being the best...

I wasn't intentionally keeping this from you. I hadn't thought about sharing until I realized what a lifesaver this little secret of mine had become in my daily fitness routine. Is the suspense killing you yet? Well, you're about to find out...

I REALLY HATE THINGS THAT STINK

But unfortunately working out produces all kinds of stinky "fragrances". Don't get me wrong, I use deodorant! I also wash my workout clothes with the best smelling detergents I can find. Sometimes that's not enough though.

If you exercise a lot like me, then you know that odors can linger no matter how many times you wash, scrub or Febreze. This is a problem--because it's embarrassing if you're out in public and there's a noticeable odor coming from your direction. No one wants to be around that! Even YOU want to run away from yourself.

MY SECRET IS DEADLY AND WILL SAVE YOU TIME & MONEY

Why? Because it kills the worst of...

I present to you the one and only Cassey Ho. She's a YouTube Pilates-Fitness Sensation and a rising fitness apparel & accessory designer. And yes, she actually designed all those bags. Her website Blogilates has gone global and I wouldn't be surprised if she has more followers than Jillian Michaels! I'm telling you, the girl is making a name for herself.

Wanna know what I love about her most?

She makes every day EASY for me because I carry the impeccably functional and stylish oGorgeous gym bag she designed everywhere I go. It's such a hit that all my friends bought it and I frequently get chased down the street by women asking me "where can I get that gym bag?"

Q.How has being famous online affected your life?
A.
It’s really funny when someone recognizes me on the street or when people start staring and giggling at me but don’t say anything. In fact, it’s kind of weird! On another note, I’ve been able to work with some companies that I’ve been a fan of for years – something I’ve never even dreamed of happening.

Q.How did you get to where you are?
A.
After I graduated from Whitter College in 2009 with a degree in Biology, I moved to Boston to become a fashion buyer for a major corporate retailer. At the same time I was running the oGorgeous line on the side. When one of my bags got featured in SHAPE Magazine, I saw an opportunity to take on my business 100%, so I left my boring 9-5 job. In the process of developing my second collection, I spent my hours at home and at the gym, so I had time to start blogging and YouTubing more.

Q.So what drew you to fitness besides your knack for designing amazing...

She didn't rise to the top on luck alone, ladies. When she's not dissing on Lady Gaga, she's dishing wisdom on Anderson Cooper's show. Here are the clips that made me stop, think and praise her for the queen that she is. I translated them into mantras for you that you can say to yourself while you work out.

HOW MADONNA TEACHES US TO BE STRONG & RADIANT

1. Live With Passion & Devotion

"Put your boxing gloves on."  --Madonna

2. Find Balance. Don't Overdo Fitness, Just Fit It In.

"I don't work out as much as I used to." --Madonna

3. Sleep More. Live For Today. Celebrate Your Accomplishments.

"I wanted to write and direct a film for a very long time...and I just accomplished that." --Madonna

She may come off rather b*tchy sometimes but you've got to hand it to her for staying so STRONG & RADIANT throughout her life and career. In my opinion, there's nothing wrong with being tough...
