Getting Meaty in the Gym and in Lasagna

Well the middle of the week didn't turn out so well because of my two late nights at work. At least the weekend rocked. Just as a reminder, on Friday I managed to do triceps with this bad boy. I know I mentioned it yesterday, but I am still pretty proud of myself. Ok,...

Cardio Burst Circuit Workout

As I am sure you know by now if you've been hanging around my blog for a while, I am going through an odd transition of lifting more and running less. Even though the lifting is fun and I feel more fit than when I only run, I still can't get past the thought of ,...
