In my first episode of Fitness Moves You Think You Can’t Do But Totally Can, I got all crazy and tried to convince you that handstand push-ups are a great workout, fun and an awesome party trick to boot. A few of you tried them. Many of you laughed. This time I’m hoping to up …
It all started with a dubious website for underemployed writers and a post that can best be described as the Internet equivalent of a casting call for a Valtrex ad. “Writer wanted for popular celebrity blog. Style must match exactly. I need to take a break for personal reasons and want to keep posting continuous …
I can be bought. For the low, low price of $80. You’d think my morals would be a bit pricier than that and honestly I myself was surprised but there you have it. Last night and tonight found me parking around back of a large building, sneaking in a door left cracked open, and then …

Happy Holidays from Charlotte and the Gym Buddies! When the great (and Jewish) MizFit took it upon herself to organize a Christmas Eve FitBlogger Talent Show I was overcome with joy.
