I chatted to Logan Leigh Rix, who you might have spotted on the cover of this months Fitness Magazine… What do IFBB Bikini Competitors eat How did you get into this industry? I got asked this question the other day and that’s when I realised that there was never a conscious decision, it just sort of happened.

Over the weekend I attended the new HALLS XS launch at Rosebank Mall – where we got to try the new HALLS XS flavours and enter the Flip.Pop.Go activation. Halls XS is a new on-the-go, sugar free candy, that its not only methylated – as Halls is known for – but also has a new shape – a small little bubble, bursting with fresh flavours such as Mentholyptus, Lime and Watermelon.
