Well, last week was a productive week workout wise.  There comes a point in one’s life when you say…ok!  Snap out of it and get off your butt and do something about it.  Now, I wish mine had come 6 months ago, but at least it’s happened before 6 more months went by.  After having [...]

In light of some wrist injuries, I’ve gotta mix things up a bit this week for my workouts.  First of all let me say I loathe running.  Every single minute of it I cringe and internally cry from boredom, yet I know how effective it is.  So with bum wrists I’ve got to get [...]
