PRETTY GIRLS SWEAT (Temple University) | On Thursday, April 30, 2013 Her Campus Temple hosted Student Health Awareness Day as part of an effort to promote wellness among students and members of the North Philadelphia community. The event featured speakers, food and contests, a visit by Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson, whose foundation promotes awareness of pancreatic cancer and, of course, Temple University’s very own Pretty Girls Sweat Ambassadors, Andrea Cox, Kayla Ingram, Joie’ Johnson-Walker and Janelle Scruggs.
The bright pink table, beset with the incentive to win raffled PGS merchandise piqued the interest of nearly 100 girls and women. All eagerly wanting to know more about the movement and engage in conversation about, health, nutrition, community and fitness. Four lucky girls walked away with PGS t-shirts from our hourly raffle and with a new-found interest in the movement.
Student Health Awareness was a success! Though it marked the ending to an amazing school year, it also jump-started the beginning of a new chapter for Temple University’s PGS team.

STUDENT ATHLETE SUNDAY: The last thing that comes to mind when thinking about wrestling is probably women, until now. This sassy 16 year-old is claiming her territory in the male dominated world of wrestling. Making headlines in Sparta, NJ, Sierra “Sissy” Blasone is the only female wrestler on the varsity team at Sparta High School. She says, “wrestling is my life I train even when I don’t have to because that’s what separates me from the people who train with their team only. That makes it possible for me to be first in the state because I do it all day, every day, whether I’m running 5 miles or just watching what I eat to cut weight. I work hard, I go hard!” Read more of her amazing story at TeenDiaries.net. #SierraBlasone #Wrestling #PrettyGirlsSweat #PGS #Sweatspiration #Fitspiration #fit #motivation #WeightLoss #CleanEating #healthy #body #Health #Fitspo #Sweatspo #Sweat #Exercise #Workout #Fitness #Fitspired #TeenDiaries

FITNESS FRIDAY: To no surprise, we all want flat, toned stomachs. Many women rely on crunches, but according to studies crunches are not the most effective. Crunches only work the muscles on the front and sides of your abdomen, but it’s important to target all the muscles that make up your core to get more defined abs. To lose belly fat and discover amazing abs… READ MORE: https://teendiaries.net/article/best-exercises-flat-stomach #PrettyGirlsSweat #PGS #Sweatspiration #Fitspiration #fit #motivation #WeightLoss #CleanEating #healthy #body #Health #Fitspo #Sweatspo #Sweat #Exercise #Workout #Fitness #Fitspired #Abs #TeenDiaries

FOOD FRIDAY | Everyone is familiar with the USDA’s food pyramid, which is a guide on how much of each food group one should consume. The base of the pyramid contains food that should be included in our diet the most and the top of the pyramid contains food that should be consumed sparingly. For those of us who are vegetarians, vegans, or pescatarians, we have to make certain adjustments to meet our needs and still maintain good nutrition at the same time! To make sure you are on track, check out this vegetarian food pyramid! One major difference between the traditional food pyramid and this one is the increase in fruit and vegetable servings, with some recommending 9-13 servings daily. Stay fit and fabulous no matter what your diet is! #prettygirlssweat #pgs #nutrition #foodpyramids #vegetarian #vegan #pescatarian #diet #exercise
