motivation...

We all have good days and bad days. But what happens when a bad day happens to fall on a gym day? Well, that's just the problem I ran into on Monday.

little etiquette goes a long way...

Regardless of where you workout, a little etiquette goes a long way! For instance, if you're out for a bike ride, don't scare people by riding right behind them, willing them to move out of your way, or darting out from behind then, causing them to jump! Use your bike horn or warn people what side you're coming up behind them.

getting started...

While I have always considered myself to be and active person - running, dancing, playing soccer, engaging in all kinds of crazy workout videos, etc. - I got to a point where I hit a wretched plateau. It's as if the strength I knew I had in the inside just wasn't matching up with how I looked on the outside. Knowing that made me feel frustrated, down, and hard on myself for not doing "enough".
