No excuses! The personal stuff.

by

When I decided to share the No Excuses! exercise it was more because I was feeling a pull to do it again than anything else. And, since Im all about bringing others into the proverbial fray, I decided to see if I could lure a few of you into joining me. Still I was surprised how many of you clicked on the photo above to make it bigger & emailed asking about it/commenting on how few excuses ... Continue Reading

This is all the exercise that's on tap for me today. Chair-plankage. First an update of sorts from my Techfree Tuesday post. I appreciate how many of you wished me luck breaking the concept to Ren Man & didn't take lightly the notion he might have ZERO interest in joining me.  The man loves him some technology. That said, after I explained my idea to him (over dinner.  at the table. ... Continue Reading

Today I will dance to Single Ladies until I fall over in exhaustion in the name of cardio. Today I will hoist the Tornado overhead so she can swing on the monkey bars and I will deem it resistance training. Today I will treasure every fleeting, ... Continue Reading
