Until now, only a few people know that some of my better small group workouts begin as ideas scrawled on the back of coffee shop receipts in a post-espresso maniacal blur.

By the look of my … [Read more...] about Kettlebell Workout: As Above, So Below

So... a lot this week about photoshopped pictures on the covers of women's mags, and now this whole thing with a tv show that I don't watch calling someone (who looks pretty normal to my warped mind) "too muscular."
