How Do I Lose Weight?!
“NEAT” Food for Thought! Why is it exactly that some people start exercising, but still don’t seem to be losing weight?! Well, it could be many things, but there’s no one answer to this question.

You Are NOT Alone…
Starting something new can be scary; whether it be going to a new school, starting a new job, or making healthy lifestyle changes. At times it can seem like there is no one else out there going through the same changes you are. It can take time before we find anyone we can truly relate [...]
What is Your Motivation for Going to the Gym?
It is official; Mondays are my hardest ever day in the gym. It is something about weighted step ups, followed by push-ups, squats and dead-lifts that somehow totally drains my life force. Then 20 minutes later the weirdest thing happens, it is like my energy levels kick it into high gear, and I am like [...]
Time to Build Some Muscle
