Things are heating up in North Miami Beach, as the neighborhood just welcomed the hottest new boutique fitness resident - Sweat Studio, to the area.A stone's throw from the Ancient Spanish Monastery, Sweat Studio is bringing the latest trend taking over Miami – heat, and no, we’re not talking about the weather.Suitably named, Sweat Studio heats up to over 100 degrees before members take on a variety of formats like TRX, Barre, Pilates and Dance, with 60-minute classes like “Tone & Burn” or “Stretch & Sculpt.”Sweat Studio Founder, Rikki Heiken had been a personal trainer for quite some time, before deciding to fulfill a longtime dream to have her own studio and classes she has created.“Watching my clients achieve their goals, love their bodies, and seeing them grow more confident every day, is why I go to work,” says Heiken.
The passion pours through her words, as she speaks about her philosophy of teaching. She’s not just an owner of a gym after all. Heiken still takes the time to learn everyone’s name that enters her studio and walks around the room to make sure people are getting the most from their workout.“She has changed my body and allowed me to reach my fitness goals,” says a longtime client of Heiken’s. “I found a trainer who truly cares about my long-term goals, and I couldn’t be more excited to continue this journey with her.”Sweat Studio is offering 14 classes a week, before expanding their offering. First time drop-ins are free, and class packs starting at five for $105, and 10 at $180.No need to worry about bringing your own mat and towel, that’s always provided free of charge. “Grippy socks” are a good investment to avoid slipping around the room when the heat picks up.Sweat Studio is located at 17017 West Dixie Hwy, North Miami Beach, FL.

Flashback to a year ago: I first stepped into Nick Plessett’s boxing class; I was intimidated, a little nervous, and wasn’t sure I could keep up during my first boxing class ever. Damn - Nick's class kicked my ass. After taking his class, I was fired up, motivated, and extremely excited to get back as fast as possible for round two.Getting to know Nick as a person has been so exciting, and learning how he quit his nine-to-five to pursue his true passion full time. He is a certified personal trainer, teaching at Sobekick and Fight Club Doral. I had the opportunity to sit down with him and talk about how he got started in fitness, and how his journey has evolved. Here’s a quick 10 on one of the most inspirational people I know, Nick Plessett.
The pursuit of happiness was always in my mind, and I wasn’t content with my previous job of being an F+B Manager. Was I good at it? Yes, but I was never giving my full potential there. Being un-satisfied made me go after my true passion of being an instructor, doing what I love, and knowing everyday there’s is room to grow.
I took my first kickboxing class at 14, after being inspired by many of Jean-Claude Van Damme movies. I began training about 10 years ago.
My experience within the sport - from amateur MMA fights, Muay Thai and boxing matches, to years of training and learning. Some people might be great trainers, but I’ve come to find most people haven’t mastered how to teach proper technique, such as a roundhouse kick, or a true cross/hook combination.
Western Boxing is just boxing, but anyone outside of North America will call it Western Boxing. This includes your basic punches and defense. Kickboxing includes kicks, knees, and punches, but no elbows. Muay Thai is known as the art of eight limbs, which includes kicks, punches, knees, and elbows. This is my personal favorite because I think in boxing your entire body should be used as a weapon.
Yes, especially since I’ve gotten more amateur matches under my belt.
Not only is this my coaching philosophy, but my overall philosophy to live by as a person, which is to give more than I receive. I believe the more information I can provide, the more energy I can offer, and the more motivation I can bring to all my classes, makes each day as a coach worth my while, knowing at least one person gained something from taking my class. If I could, I would coach for free because the happiness I receive from coaching others is what fires me every day.
I went to Thailand to do a professional debut, but got injured six days in due to a bad sparring incident. That allowed me to have a more of a spiritual and mental experience. Humbled to be there, watching these professionals, it helped me grow and overcome a huge heartbreak. I was still able to continue my learning, and transferring that knowledge into my own coaching of Muay Thai and boxing.
I’m looking forward to connecting with more people and sharing my energy with new people who have may never tried the sport. I am looking forward to growing and giving it my all in 2018.
I believe you should have three substantial meals a day, and make lifestyle changes. Give your body the rest it needs, stay hydrated, and make sure you never skip breakfast because that’s what gets your metabolism going. I will tell you that fad diets don’t work, because majority of the time they lead to failure.
I am teaching at Sobekick in South Beach and Fightclub in Doral. I also offer private training for those looking for a more intimate session.
Nick Plessett is a certified personal trainer, teaching at Sobekick and Fight Club Doral.

The holidays are here, and to some, that may mean overindulging, traveling, and steering a bit off track. But not to worry, we have a grocery list that will keep you balanced. Here are 5 Items That Should Be in Your Grocery Cart This December.
Ginger Tea
Ginger tea is a great way to keep your body cleansed and feeling light. Drink it in the morning, or at night before bed to settle your stomach after a day of eating. We suggest you add lemon, and turmeric to the tea because that keeps the bloating down. When we start eating random foods, our stomachs naturally bloat. This detox tea will do just the opposite.
Celery
Just because its the holiday season doesn’t mean you have to throw away every green food in your fridge. Start your morning on a healthy note with celery juice. If you don’t have a juicer, just add two cups of water to four to six stalks of celery and blend on the highest power. This will refresh your body getting you off to a healthy start for the day.
Activated Charcoal
No, not coal for the stockings! With holiday party’s happening, its more than likely you will be cheering someone with some champagne, but before you do sip a glass of activated charcoal. Activated charcoal is a natural liver detox, promotes healthy skin, and will keep your hangover away so you can sweat all that food out the next day.
Almond Flour
The best flour substitute on the market. Almond flour can be used in any recipe, and the amounts are always the same so no need to worry about the consistency. It keeps banana bread thick, and cookies doughy. Almond flour is a great low carb and low sugar substitute for any holiday baking you’ll be doing. No one said you couldn’t indulge in a healthier way; your co-workers won’t even know the difference.
Oatley
If you haven’t seen Oatley at your nearest grocery store yet, then get to one ASAP. This oat milk from Sweden has finally made its way to U.S. grocery stores and it’s all the buzz. Oat meal + oat milk? No words to describe how tasty it is. Oat milk has less fat than coconut milk with no added preservatives, and all the same delicious taste.
5 Items That Should Be in Your Grocery Cart This December.
It's officially the holiday season - which means food is on the top of everyone's mind. Here's a few items we recommend you add to your grocery list to make your holiday fun a little less overindulgent.

October is here which means everyone’s bringing out their pumpkin spice lattes, winter coats, and boots. We are giving you five foods to fill your cart with this October. Maple is the flavor of the month, but we're ditching maple syrup for healthier alternatives that will please your taste buds. Acorn squash, Purely Elizabeth maple granola, Oatmeal, Pumpkin Spice almond milk, Rxbar Maple Almond Butter.
This vegetable is a winter squash which makes it easily accessible and less expensive at your local grocery store. I always aim to shop for seasonal vegetables because it cut’s down the grocery bill. Acorn squash is a great fall food to meal prep or turn into soup on a cold night.
The only granola I eat is Purely Elizabeth, because she uses whole, and real ingredients with no added sugars. Often granola is full of gluten, sugars, and processed foods. Purely Elizabeth is gluten free, grain-free, sweetened with coconut sugar, and contains probiotics. There’s not many (if any) other brands of granola who use coconut oil instead of canola oil. The taste of this granola is nothing short of incredible. Top oatmeal, bananas, or smoothies with it.
Sure, we all have heard of Quaker Oats, but I am here to introduce Bob’s Red Mill Rolled Oats. The difference? The ingredients. Bob’s Red Mill Rolled Oats are gluten free, non-gmo, and certified organic. A package of these oats will run you about $6, depending on your local grocery store. Oats are a great breakfast, or snack when on the go. Top them with your Purely Elizabeth Granola and let the maple walnut flavor seep into the oats.
Tis’ the season for pumpkin spice, especially when its vegan, gluten free, and dairy free. I love the Califia Farms brand because they have wholesome ingredients and lack no taste. It’s nice to treat yourself to a Starbucks PSL occasionally, but for the same price, this cold brew will last you over a week for the same cost, less calories, and cleaner ingredients.
Drizzle and enjoy. I drizzle this nut butter on just about everything. Bananas, apples, oats, and smoothies. You can also eat it solo on the go as a pre-workout snack. My ultimate favorite is to drizzle it on really hot oats, so it melts into the oatmeal giving it that maple flavor without having to use maple syrup.
October is here which means everyone’s bringing out their pumpkin spice lattes, winter coats, and boots. We are giving you five foods to fill your cart with this October. Maple is the flavor of the month, but we're ditching maple syrup for healthier alternatives that will please your taste buds.
Fall is here and so are the yummy fall foods. Although Miami doesn't experience the ‘seasonal change' most cities have, we still enjoy our fall foods. Move over pumpkin spice latte, because these five fall must haves are healthy, sweet, and full of fall flavor. Tis’ the season.
Think of a pumpkin pie with tons of super foods, nutrient dense, and delicious. That’s exactly what the Perfect Bar Pumpkin Pie is all about. To be exact, it has 14g of protein, and 20 super foods packed into this truly Perfect Bar, without all the carbs and sugars. This bar is great when you’re on-the-go or as a pre-workout snack.
Almond butter, cashew butter, sunflower butter, or any butter should always be in your cart. Top it on sweet potatoes for that sweet-savory blend, yogurt, or include it in your smoothies. Nut butter is so diverse, yet so filling. You can almost top any dish with it and the taste just makes anything better.
Everyone loves a sprinkle of cinnamon, right? Ceylon cinnamon is known to be the purest form of cinnamon, I use it for coffee, a topping on majority of sweet foods, and as a healthy spice. Cinnamon has tons of benefits like lowering blood pressure, anti-inflammatory properties, and can improve sensitivity to insulin.
Granny Smith Green Apples have a special place in my heart, and often are one of my favorite sweet tooth curbs at night. Here’s how I use it for dessert: warm caramelized apples, a tablespoon of honey, and a drizzle of almond butter. It’s the perfect amount of sweetness and it’s still a nutritious dish.
When the cold nights come around, everyone scurries for their warm dishes and comfort food. Spaghetti squash is a great way for adults and kids to sneak in some vegetables and enjoy a healthier version of the classic pasta dish. Cut the spaghetti squash in half and roast for 20 minutes on both sides, then carve out the spaghetti and add your choice of cheese, pesto, or spaghetti sauce.
