I got up this morning, telling myself I have rested enough. Just because I don’t feel great, doesn’t mean I should stay home. So off I went with the expectation that I would do a short cardio warm up and then start Power Week of Legs, Butt and Thighs. I did the cardio and 2 [...]

I have been haunted by the Counting Crows lately. This songs was playing at the Buckle while I was shopping. I was talking to a guy in the store and he said, “We know the crows—-people our age.” I think he was at most 28. I will take that as a complement
