The NikkiFitness Slimnastics workout is boot camp meets yoga - but keep your sneakers on, you are going to need them! The Slimnastics Workout combines cheerleading and gymnastics-style balancing, strength and cardio moves with yoga-based toning that requires no equipment other than your body weight. Plyometric cardio intervals cut workout time and boost metabolism. There is also a Slimnastics DVD you can buy if you'd like a workout buddy at www.slimnasticsworkout.com. NikkiFitness recreated the intense workout she achieved doing cardio jumping routines and the toning from pyramids and "partner stunting" in college cheerleading, with what she learned as a Yogi, boot camp trainer and group fitness instructor in Manhattan - the fitness mecca. Slimnastics starts with an inspirational story that convinces people to work out because they can, and that their new fitness life starts today. Nikki provides personal fitness struggles and tips on how to get Slimnastics-ready, through push-up practice, cardio intervals, and multitasking. Next she leads the reader/viewer into a "workout for warriors" with moon and sun salutations, then standing balance poses, plyometric gymnastic-inspired cardio intervals, and arm balance poses that build upper body strength. Slimnastics slims and sculpts you into a chiseled and healthy body. The mind will love that it only takes 30 minutes to do. Each chapter is broken down into 2-3 toning moves with a one-minute cardio interval, with photos of each move. Nikki even reveals "one magic combo move" that does it all: cardio and total-body toning. If you only have time or memory for one move all day, wherever you are, this does it all. The final chapter on "Exercising Your Soul" completes workout for the mind, body and spirit. www.nikkifitness.com

Team Aniston or Team Jolie? Whether you have admittedly chosen a side, chances are you know the feud these slogans reference and perhaps even remember where you were when news of the Aniston-Pitt split broke. Over the past three decades, buzz over the rich and famous has exploded, thanks in part to refined technology, well-oiled media outlets, and a dedicated few who have greased up their own laptops to challenge the tabloid giants (think Perez Hilton). Much to their chagrin, or so they say, celebrities have become all the rage, lending to their adoring, or simply inquisitive, public not only a glamorous escapism but also the reality that even megastars suffer fault. Marjorie Hallenbeck-Huber fills you in on the juiciest bits to hit the celebrity gossip circuit over the past three decades. Read about the most bizarre hookups (Lance Armstrong and an Olsen twin, anyone?); marriages that lasted a Hollywood second, or fifty-five hours in the case of Britney Spears; celebrity baby names, like Heavenly Hiranni Tiger Lily, that even the creative teams at Crayola could not dream up; diet tricks and training regimens that guarantee a camera-ready body; “it” travel destinations where celebs go to laze under the sun—or to do good; and infamous crack-ups that surely sent publicists into a damage-control frenzy. Did we forget to mention sex tapes? Celebrities’ Most Wanted™ grants you access to the fascinating world of the rich and famous, where Red Carpet is a season, Fiji is more than a bottle of water, and saving the world is not such a far-off possibility.
