Good morning, everyone, and welcome to our old friend, SUMMERTIME! Listen, even though the calendar says it's a couple of weeks away, it was 108 degrees in the beautiful San Fernando Valley yesterday, and as far as I'm concerned, that means either (1) it's summer or (b) climate change is HAPPENING, people!

Friday Five: My 5 rules for the gym, in no particular order
Well, howdy and happy Friday, everyone! This has been a different week, exercise-wise. Mostly, because the weather was a little cooler (i.e., 80s and 90s instead of 90s and 100s!), I walked every day, and enjoyed it, for the most part (although the last 50 yards are always the hardest!).

I had … Continue reading When Nature Calls!

On becoming a Gym Rat
Wow. Well, I never thought this would happen, but as of this past Wednesday, I've actually got TWO gym memberships, simultaneously! In addition to my on-again, off-again recurring 24 Hour Fitness membership (it's all about the POOL, people!!), I've just signed up with Anytime Fitness for a year. And THAT one, my friends, is all … Continue reading On becoming a Gym Rat
