    DO you workout on vacation?

    I'm like Shelley, I ALWAYS workout out on vacation. I makes everything more enjoyable to me. If the hotel has a fitness room, I do treadmill and free weights everyday with my ipod loaded with good stuff. (To me, that's a vacation in itself, but then again, I iron my sheets:7 ). If it's...

    I don't know, ladies... I think you should try it! It's rather therapeutic for me to create those nice, smooth sheets that I know I'm going to get to enjoy!! }( As you can tell, I am the most Virgo of all Virgos.:7

    My two cents: I agree that Tracey's form was not inspiring or energetic. Her movements are a bit pinched. Also agree that the tone was not as expansive as Cathe or, say, Gin Miller. Those two are so inviting and encouraging! And I wasn't inspired by the set at all. But it ended up being a...

    Working out with my Boxer: OT but short

    Just had to relate this evening's workout with Lola, my Boxer. Doing Pure Strength Chest, Back and Shoulders, as I was starting out with those decline push ups, Lola comes over to check out and try to pull off my weight gloves, standing over me. So, as I'm pushing up, I'm running into the...
