A Gym Where It Costs You to Skip a Workout
A Gym Where It Costs You to Skip a Workout – NYTimes.com. This is going to be interesting to follow. Many people are simply not motivated enough by money to get moving. $25 bucks is pretty steep but probably the right price that would at least have some of those with good intentions to stop…

Stop, Clean & Jerk
It’s important to stop and appreciate all you have daily. This morning – I included a pic of my kids getting ready to leave for school this morning. They bring me so much joy and teach me so much every day. I can’t imagine my life without these 2 rascals and I am glad I…

Crossfit Impavidus: It’s your box too
Another Crossfit Impavidus training session this morning and my shoulders were not too pleased! I was also the only one that came to the 6A class so I basically had a personal training session with Nick. That is good and bad. You can’t really slack when the trainer has only you to focus on —…

Strength WOD at CFI

Hit the Nail on the Head
So I seriously had the best birthday yesterday. I woke up, worked out, headed to a baby shower lunch with some friends, came home, napped, and then headed out for a party thrown by some good friends. There is nothing like just living in the moment and enjoying your life. I felt loved. So much…

Lordy, Lordy I am 40
Yes its true. Today is my birthday — my fortieth birthday to be exact. When I was a kid 40 seemed so old — now that I am that age, doesn’t really add up. I don’t feel old and I have been told I don’t look old — so overall if this is what 40…
