So I’m scrolling through my Twitter feed (my version of catching up on all the latest scoops) and a certain tweet catches my attention. It claimed to have the perfect tips on sculpting a butt like Beyonce's.
After reading through them and noticing the level of sub par information, I started thinking about what really works. At the end of the day, when trying to make a change in your bod... read more Laser Hair Removal...Bye Bye Shaving!

I’m overjoyed and girlishly excited to announce that I’ve gladly waved goodbye to shaving!
After fruitlessly trying every method of removing unwanted hair, as it’s been as issue for me since I was 13 years old, I’m finally free. Don’t the commercials on TV look promising? From gentle bleaches or shaving creams that smell like exotic tropical getaways, to expensive ra... read more The Best Sports Bra I've Ever Owned

Ever since the tender & awkward age of 14 I've been on a noble quest for the perfect sports bra.
In fact, I can remember the first one to cross my path. It was shiny metallic spandex, purple, and didn't seem to do much. Nearly all the sports bras I've discovered along my journey crush everything against my body giving me the dreaded uni-boob.
Strangely enough, even though my b... read more My Journey with Food Journaling

A substantial part of my life and professional career are enhanced and elevated by staying lean.
However, being from a wholesome family that perceives obesity a bit differently than society at large, in my household it was challenging to keep things trim. Even as a kid I recognized that without helpful tools, growing up fit would be a rugged journey.
Count me in with the innumerable amount of fi... read more You Are What You Eat...So What's Eating You?

The mainstream weight loss culture has people so focused on micro-managing things like calories, saturated fats, and carbs that they often forget to examine whether what they’re looking at is actually food or not!
From Frankenfoods and genetically modified produce to chemical concoctions and overly packaged, processed, and preserved products, is what you’re eating really eating you?

I’m asked on a regular basis about what I eat. It’s great because it’s a sign that people are getting the idea that food is what fitness is all about. In this post I’m going to lay out 25 of the foods that are typically found in my kitchen and pantry.
Trust me, I’ve met tons of fitness models, and we all eat the same nutritious stuff (with lots of variances of course... read more The Before Picture...Becoming Your After!

After announcing my tone-up competition I noticed a trend emerging. This one was surprising, and like a runaway car completely surprised me.
Repeatedly people wrote or approached me personally to declare that they “really want to do the competition, but don’t want to show a before picture.” I’m afraid to say this runs across the board and the entire gauntlet; a far-reachin... read more One of My Favorite Fitness Accessories - A Jump Rope.

Today I enjoyed a lovely conversation with my sweet friend Maria. She happened to see a video of me training with my jump rope, and as it turns out she’s really interesting using one the way I do. Maria was kind enough to ask me for a few tips to help her get started, and this post is my enthusiastic reply.
There’s so much to say about jumping rope, but here are some things that I thi... read more No Fitness Goal? That's like GPS Without A Destination

Over the years, through talking with friends and clients about New Year's resolutions, I’ve noticed that people tend to be a bit vague.
Becoming a better version of yourself isn't the easiest thing and to actually make it happen it's crucial to know exactly where you’re going. It's funny that most of us invest more thought into setting up a road trip than we do plannin... read more Fitness Resolutions with Megan Graham

Isn't it funny how every year it takes a bit to remember the new number? Considering how difficult that tiny habit can be at first, a resolution to seriously overhaul a physique takes planning!
For the first few weeks after the New Year my gym is abnormally packed. It's the time of the year when we start to think about what we can do to look, feel, and be better. I admire those who set f... read more
