Welcome to Burpees | Bites | Beauty!

Welcome to Burpees | Bites | Beauty! My name is Jillian Gallagher. I have been living in New York City for almost two years working as a model. Coming from a small town in Pennsylvania, the city can sometimes feel overwhelming. My job requires me to stay in top shape and with so many choices on where to find food or exercise, I find it hard to stick to a routine. A lot of people think that weight management is all about working out, but in reality it’s about being well rounded. Keeping your mental, physical, and dietary needs balanced is the best way to stay healthy for life.


I am someone who likes to try new things and branch out to new places. So, with the help of suggestions from my readers, I hope to try something new everyday. After testing something, I will write a review in order to help my readers find healthy eats, great workouts and natural beauty products. These reviews will give my opinion along with a general overview of the product. As I am going through these products, restaurants and workout places I will give advice and opinions about things I feel may be helpful to my readers. I’m here to help New Yorkers to feel less overwhelmed by underwhelming options and narrow down the ones I find to be the best out there. I can’t wait to explore the city in a healthy way with all of you!

Since then it has spread from beauty products to our household items to our food. Everywhere we look there seems to be a hue of grey. If you’re like me, you might have gotten caught up in the trend without intending to and now somehow you have been partaking in some benefits that you have no idea what they are. I’m here to inform you how charcoal can help you in the many different forms of products we see it in today. We’ll start at the very beginning, the birth of the charcoal trend, the toothpaste. It was hard to go on social media without seeing someone with seriously black teeth that somehow turned their teeth whiter. How does it work? According to Trust Dental Care these toothpastes are made from a form of charcoal called Activated Charcoal. Activated Charcoal has natural adhesive qualities...

Post Workout Habits

While working out is always on trend, lately what you do before and after your workout has become even more popular. There are many ways that people have been taking care of their bodies outside of working out but lately there are two ways that have been trending over Instagram. First, Cryofeul located in TriBeca on Colby street. Cryotherapy chambers rapidly cool the body, accelerating muscle recovery and skin rejuvenation. Cryogenically chilled air reduces inflammation and stimulates collagen production. The reduction of inflammation helps to accelerate injury recovery. Collagen helps reduce signs of aging and cellulite. You can see these chambers on the Instagrams of super models such as Karlie Kloss and GiGi Hadid who calls it her beauty “secret weapon” according to NYC & PT. Cryo Skin 2.0 is a new form of Cryotherapy that naturally destroys fat cells, remove cellulite, and reduce signs of aging. CryoSkin 2.o is $350 per session and full body Cryotherapy is $75 p...
