    What do you do on your "rest" week

    What about Afterburn, Slide and Glide, and Cardio Supersets? These involve light weights, but for a cardio effect rather than muscle building...Are they too intense for my "rest" week?

    Coconut Oil

    I occasionally spread it on an almond cracker for a quick snack...a little bit goes a long way, and it's delish! :) Also, I have land hermit crabs, and coconut is their diet staple-a dab of coconut oil in their food dish and they knock each other over to get at it...

    Your "dread factor" workout

    Bob Harper Caridio Conditioning; It's just so darned long-some folks may like 1 hour cardio workouts, but I simply hate them-I'll go running instead. The Insanity workouts also have that dread factor, but at least most of them are less than 55 minutes. I also find myself screaming "I hate...

    Daily Check-In Wednesday 4/20

    Hello! We woke up to storms, lightning, and high wind early this morning. A few trees down, no biggie, at least in our immediate community. Thankfully, the rain stopped long enough for me to get a run. Prolly no gardening this afternoon, so I might do one of my Jackie Warner dvds.
