408 X 3 sets X 9 Reps!!  What a difference 1 year of serious “hardcore” weight lifting has made in my life!!  I will never stop lifting.  I love the way I feel….

Hardcore means working out 4 times/week consistently.  Sometimes more, but never less.  Going to the gym even when it was the last thing on earth I felt like doing.  Taking a week off when my body says it needs a break.  And then jumping right back on the bandwagon!!! 

It really does have to be a LIFESTYLE CHANGE.  I would love to see MORE WOMEN doing this!!!

I am not an expert but if you want some info or ideas I can tell you from experience what has worked for me.  Just find something you love to do and do it well!!

Long day of sitting, sitting, sitting….union negotiations all day long.  Ugh.  Workout after that felt GREAT!!  Training for the 5K continues!!  Is it summer yet????

Can I just say….ladies, please, LIFT WEIGHTS!  Cardio is fine and all but weight lifting is what you need to be doing.  I started last April and I am no where near BULKY and I do HEAVY weight lifting.  I have not gained a pound.  Seriously.  I can bench press 100 pounds 9 times for 3 sets.  In April I struggled with the 45 pound bar. 

Just Do It!!!

Hottie of the Day…or Cheesy Photo of the Day? I just call it yummy.
