FitBlog NYC and Tone It Up Trainers

Posted on the 10 May 2012 by Mattie @comfyconfident

Yesterday was a whirlwind! Thank you Fitness Magazine and FitFluential for putting on an amazing event! I was so honored and excited to meet so many amazing bloggers and brands through out the whole day. Bess from Bess Be Fit and I became instant friends and spent the day together exploring all the brands and listening to the speakers. Hanging out with Bess made the event a lot more fun and way less stressful! It’s always nice to have a buddy at big events where you don’t really know anyone! [even though I felt like I did know a lot of the bloggers since I read about their life everyday!!]

Here is a picture recap of some of the highlights! I will post a more detailed recap tomorrow; today, I have to catch up on work. I am so far behind…oops…it was so worth it! #sorryimnotsorryThere were so many amazing brands displaying their fabulous goodies and educating us on their newest products including Oakley, Reebok, Birkenstock, and so many more! 

Mia Hamm was there with Go With The Grain a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing the public’s understanding of the important role grain-based foods play in a healthful diet.

At the end of the day Kelly Olexa , Julie, Carla, Tina sat on an awesome panel talking about blogging for a living. They are all so nice and funny; exactly how I imagined them!

Our awesome gift bag full of great swag! Lots of goodies to share with you guys! 

Yup, that’s right! I met the fabulous duo, Karena and Katrina, of Tone it Up. They were in NYC doing a meet and greet the same day as FitBlog NYC so after the event Bess, Caitlin and Heather rushed up there to meet our favorite trainers!

 

I received a signed copy of the Beach Babe DVD which I am so excited to try out! I also got some of their new protein powder they just released Perfect Fit Protein. It has everything anyone could ever want. It’s “your Perfect Fit, Certified Organic, Certified Gluten-Free, Raw, Non-GMO & Soy-Free Protein Powder.”

 

It even made for a delicious protein pancake this morning. I am officially obsessed! It was sweet but tasted natural. It definitely didn’t taste like any other protein powder I have ever tried!

That is all for now! I will post more on the event tomorrow! Have a great day!
