Striving For Fitness Perfection
I’m a perfectionist. It’s a character trait that I can’t evade. The idea of perfection seems great on the surface, yet it has the potential to work against me as well. I had to address the idea of fitness perfection before I started my pursuit of better fitness, or I was doomed to failure. The [...]
New Exercise Ball Work Out
It seems like every week there’s a new exercise ball work out being introduced. After reading about the Reebok trapeze workout, I can’t help but think if that one goes, then the gloves are off.

From what [...]

It looks to me like the goal is to get 1 million runners to race simultaneously in 25 cities around the world. If you can’t make it to one [...]
My Wife And Cooking
I have to say… my wife can cook. She’s quite the excellent cook, and its something she seems to enjoy. This is both a blessing and a curse for me. She grew up in a home where the men would EAT! I do mean that in all caps, too. When we first got married, she wanted to fix [...]
