The Fitness Trend I Wish Would Make a Comeback [The Sweaty Bangs Problem]

Yes, I’ve used this picture twice on this site before but that is just how deeply I love this dude. I have titled it “Awesome Sauce.” I think he may be the patron saint of the GFE! Bikram kickboxing – you many not have heard of doing kickboxing in a super heated room before but …

Book Cover Photos! (You Guys Were Right About the PinkJacket!)

Well hello there! Fancy meeting you at this park. Don’t worry I have lots of random fitness equipment to show you. No that’s not a euphemism and no I’m not trying to sell you any of it. Although this post is, apparently, sponsored by Subway. (Which is a bummer because Subway irritates me on two …

Designer Denim: Is Your Butt Bold, Demi or Slight?

Somehow I think tight denim is the least of his worries. Mel Gibson’s massive, public death spiral is depressing. Discovering that all that Dawn dish detergent that so photogenically cleans oil-drenched wildlife doesn’t prolong their lives is really depressing. But do you know what is super depressing? Giving a pair of adorable designer jeans away …

What to Wear on a Book Cover? [Heeeellllpppp Meeeeee!!!!]

Good news! I have a pub date for my book. The Great Fitness Experiment (tree-killer edition) will be on shelves Dec. 1st!

Gym Buddy Poll: How Do You Put on Your Bra?

I love a good Do-It-Yourself project! You should never let a good pair of used undies go to waste. Rowing until we (nearly) puked. Chest pressing our body weight (because we totally weigh 65 pounds). CrossFit’s workout of the day for today would have been bad enough all on its own. But our gym upped …

Your Period Cramping Your Workout Style? There’s a Shoe For That!

If you are a woman, you must watch this video. I dare you not to laugh inappropriately loud. Benjamin Franklin forgot something when he said “nothing can be said to be certain except death and taxes.” He forgot menstrual cycles. Being that he’s a man, I suppose I’ll have to forgive him for not knowing …

Models Falling From the Sky: Thin is Not the New Black

Suicide is in the air. Kazakh model Ruslana Korshunova dove to her death from her New York balcony. Canadian model Hayley Kohle leapt to a similar fate from a balcony in Milan. On the same day as Kohle, model Randy Johnston died of a drug overdose. Columbian model Lina Marulinda also chose a free fall …
