ORCHESTRATE YOUR WORKOUT
Whether summer temperatures drive you to work outside or simply make you want to move indoors where the air conditioner is blasting, having an upbeat playlist can help you quickly pass the time and feel good, too. There’s no better way to learn how to put together a motivational playlist than to ask a pro. Peloton’s bikes and treadmills are wildly popular, but now, users are working out through their app because of the high-energy instructors, many of whom have become known for their amazing playlists. Here are two instructors’ tips to put together a killer playlist.
MIX IT UP
Instructor Leanne Hainsby is known for the eclectic, feel-good songs that keep people pedaling hard in her cycling classes. Hainsby credits her vast musical tastes to her time as a dancer, which expanded her playlist for workout music. Which songs make the cut? Ones that inspire. “I think people will be so surprised by how much they will push themselves when they’re moved by the feeling of a song or how the music makes them feel,” she says. It doesn’t matter if it’s ambient electronic music or a lilting Johnny Cash tune, both of which can be found routinely on Hainby’s cycling playlists.
This is a great trick pros like Peloton instructor Christine D’Ercole use. D’Ercole is beloved by many for her themed classes, which range from an indie rock beginners’ ride to a fan-favorite all ‘90s ride. She also has holiday-themed playlists, like the one for her Women’s History Month ride in March that featured only female artists. You can always hop onto Spotify and check out the Peloton page to see all of their instructors’ recent playlists. Use this for inspiration to create your own list or stream whichever compilation catches your attention for your next workout.
MAKE IT THEMED
Whether you’re obsessed with ‘90s pop, classic rock jams, or David Bowie, you can use a theme to create workout playlists you’ll love.
TIME FOR ‘I DO’
IT’S WEDDING SEASON AT MUSIC CITY PLASTIC SURGERY
As the flowers open and the trees soak in that wonderful summer sun, it’s wedding season yet again. But you don’t have to tell us that — our own Awndria is getting married this month! Their story is a great one, and it’s been exciting to watch over the past year. She is from Kentucky, but she met her beau in Nashville while working at Green Hills Grille (one of our favorites). Then they moved to Oklahoma together. But COVID-19 forced them into a long-distance relationship after she moved back here and he was transferred up north to Michigan, so it’s wonderful to see them both headed back home to tie the knot. We wish them happiness, success, and love! Of course, Awndria isn’t the only bride we’ll see this year. Wedding season tends to be pretty busy for us; after all, who doesn’t want to look good on their wedding day? There are a few things to keep in mind, however. Ideally we want to see the bride 3–6 months ahead of time with nothing new in the six weeks before the wedding — you really don’t want to start something totally new close to the wedding, even a skin care regimen. Botox or lip filler (see the Kysse article on Pg. 3) should be at least four months ahead. On an eyelift, we can wait a bit longer, but no sooner than two months out.
We’re here for the wedding party too, with our VANity mobile concierge service. We provide Botox, filler, and also plasma and IV services. It’s a great way to recover from that bachelorette party and revitalize the skin.
