After my interview with Hungry Waif the other day, I thought it would be fun, in the grand tradition of mooching off my friends, to ask her to answer our Great Fitness Cooking Questions! Haven’t you always wanted a personal chef? I know I have! So, post your questions in the comments or e-mail them …
My friend (and Gym Buddy of Famed 12.5% bodyfat) Allison has a new experiment. She recently discovered the Women’s Ultra Mega (it’s Ultra! And Mega!!) Energy Vitapaks at GNC. They are marketed as a multi-vitamin. You take 7 pills a day, one of those being their “proprietary energy blend” which has 180mg of caffeine (about …
Tell me that did not just make your day. You’re welcome:) In my quest to master Scorpion Pose, I came across this list of animals “doing” yoga. It cracked me up & inspired me. Although, sadly, there were no scorpions pictured. Can any of you do Scorpion?? Have any tips for me? I can get …
One of the least talked about but, in my opinion, best benefits of working out at a gym is all the crazy converstions you get to overhear! At home you’re pretty much stuck to your kids, pets, significant other and, you know, the voices in your head. But stick someone on a treadmill and suddenly …

I can’t believe my good luck! Nothing says “good karma” like free stuff coming your way, right? I must’ve been awfully nice lately to make up for all my naughty because check this out: Free Pilates Reformer Class Have you ever seen those crazy-strappy-slidey contraptions in your gym? I have and I’ve been dying to …
