Sex & The City 2 Trailer
Women everywhere are rejoicing: less than two months til Sex & The City 2 premieres on May 28! [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjWl-82Yau4] Awesome trailer. Allison & I got goosebumps watching it–what nerds. But I unabashedly will get excited for it and will watch it, no matter how bad/theatrically void of merit it is. Check this video out too,…
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…
Go Barefoot

Lunge Circus
Gimpy WODs still suck. Today was my only two-a-day of this week (I think) and it was fine, I wasn’t tired or anything, but I’m TIRED of exclusively working my legs. Is this even good for me? Should I be yoga-ing instead? I can’t put my arm overhead with yoga either … Anyway, our warmup…
