Last December, Dax Moy posted a note on Facebook that he was looking for participants for a new workout program. He wanted to work the kinks out of the program before it went on the market. At the time, I was floundering for a workout program. I had just completed the Las Vegas Rock and Roll Half…

I’d like to introduce you to Dustin Carter. He’s a Junior at Hillsboro High School in Cincinnati. His goal? To make the state finals in wrestling. So what? When Dustin was five years old, both of his legs and arms were amputated to save him from a rare blood infection. This video is a bit…

“So I know you,” the clerk at the pharmacy says beaming ear to ear. “Yeah, how’s that?” I ask looking up from signing the form. “We work out at the same time at the same gym.” “We do?” “Yes.? I see you there every day.” “You do?” I ask.? “Really?” “Yes, really.” This exchange happened…

I woke this morning thinking about this stud. Can you guess who it is? (He’s cute, isn’t he? Look at his tiny waist!) This guy had a tremendous impact on my life. I’d go so far as to say he shaped my life. You see, I’m quite a bit larger (taller, bone structure, etc.) than……

Here’s the short list of why I work out: 1. It keeps the pain monster at bay. Two herniated discs in my neck? I think that says it all. 2. + Dancing all night = Core Strength. (Yes, that’s right. I wear these 3 1/2 inch heels.) 3. The dream of a four pack turning…

I was on my back squeezing out another set of sit ups (forty twisted crunches for those of you keeping track) this morning, when I thought, “Damn I spend a lot of time on my back.” I’m not saying that I’m like my friend Model Girl.? She says that everything she’s achieved in life has…

Every morning around 6:30 am, I stand on a Lifecycle Eliptical machine and do ten minutes of aerobic exercise (ten heart rate sprints). I’m not really awake, but I’m there giving it my all. The television in front of me is always tuned to this foreign language station. This particular television is always surrounded with…

I read an article (which I cannot find now) which stated that when a man meets a woman, he visualizes having sex with her.? But when a woman meets a man, she visualizes kissing him. I thought this was, well, weird, because I’m a woman and I’ve never visualized kissing anyone.? Ever. So I started…
