Vtrim: your questions answered (part 2).
You asked. They answered some in Part One. Please to enjoy Part Two. Kristen asked: “My husband always tells me to switch up my cardio routine. He said that even though I run a lot I will eventually stop losing weight because my body will get used to that type of exercise… Can your body get used to your same ol’ routine like using the elliptical?” Ron followed that question up with a ...

Tues Tips & Trends

The foods are all things which ----while MizFit does scratch her head ... Continue Reading
Link Love and a Friday FREEBIE!
First, foremost, and of the UTMOST importance is this. Read it. Heed it. Spread the word.
