Charity CrossFit-Style Partner Workout

Badassery
I usually only tell you guys the good parts of skiing–that I made it down Ajax on Sunday, that I used bigger skis, that I yard saled but didn’t really hurt myself. What I don’t talk a lot about is the fear I feel a lot MOST of the time skiing. That Ripped Guy of…

1/2 yoga and a day off
This ties in with the post I did a few days ago about rest and smart training. For instance, when you go to your physical therapist and he presses on some ligaments that makes your arm burn all the way from elbow to shoulder, you maybe shouldn’t go to Bikram yoga immediately after and think…
