NEW YORK – Alexandra Halaris is competing for the Ms. Health and Fitness 2021 title in the popular Muscle and Fitness HERS magazine, trying to get as many votes as possible. So far it is only in 2nd place. There is one free vote every 24 hours a day, and warrior votes and money also go to disabled veterans. Voting for the top 5 ends on Thursday, July 8, 7:00 p.m. PDT.
Halaris shared the contest link with The National Herald in hopes of getting more votes via social media links, including Facebook. More information is available online: https://mshealthandfitness.com/2021/alexandra-4.
Halaris told Muscle and Fitness HERS about her recommendations for “others who want to be fit and healthy,” noting that people “should start slowly and be honest with themselves.” Start making changes to your diet slowly, I would say by swapping a dessert for a fruit, etc., for example! Choose healthy foods instead of packaged foods and prepare your meals. Start running if you never exercise and start adding weights or even take a group class. Think positive and pat yourself on the back with every little step you make. “
When asked, “How does fitness positively affect your life?” Halaris said, “Losing my father to cancer was tough. I had gained about 25 pounds and I started the Athens Greece Marathon, then the Miami Marathon and I finished successfully. Now I’m addicted to CrossFit. Fitness has a positive effect on my life, it helps me mentally and physically. My new body is still in work. “
When asked what would she do if she was the next health and fitness woman and what would she do with $ 20,000?
“Since COVID-19, I’ve lost my job for over a year. I work in the hospitality industry! I will actually use it to pay some of my medical bills and donate the rest to Memorial Sloan Kettering Hospital to help others treat cancer. “
