Self-objectification.

by

Whether you are familiar with this term or not---Im pretty confident in saying we're all familiar with the concept.

(many believe that the media plays a large role in teaching us to do this---but that's a post for a different ... Continue Reading

The use of foam rollers in running (guest post).

by

Many thanks to Heather for responding to my pleas for a post on foam rollers. This might sound over-the-top, but the foam roller is probably the single most influential piece of exercise equipment I have used so far (though my Vibram Five Fingers are challenging that position). Essentially, the foam roller is a personal massage agent. If you use it well, it incurs that “Ouch!  That hurts!  ... Continue Reading

It reinforces for me the idea that together we bloggers are far far greater than the sum of our posts parts. Please to enjoy the Bombshel. I always do.

How do you enter to win? Is there a chance of the tread pictured above ending up in ... Continue Reading

How do YOU hydrate?
