Long weekend here I come
The weeks seem to be be getting tougher for me as the summer moves by – which is not ideal. I need to figure out a way to recharge my battery – exercising works to a point of course but to completely unplug from our current hectic lives and restore the balance in my head.…

What happened to the breeze?
There was a nice breeze when we started the workout today, but for some reason – it quickly disappeared right after the warm up! I wonder why?? Because it’s friggin HOT! We had a late start today so we only did one round of warm ups but the rest was business as usual – and…

Find your passion
I read this blog entry today: called Weight Loss at The Anti Jared and it struck a chord with me. I have said this before – find your passion and things seem to fall into place. For Tony, aka The Anti Jared, it was his newborn son and wife. For me – it is the…
