Any of my friends who has ever heard me go on a rant about why I love My Fitness Pal so much knows that my main use is to track my water intake. I’ve had issues in the past with not drinking much, if any, water, and then playing intense volleyball while on the verge…
So, you may have noticed that I gave my blog a minor facelift over the past week. You can thank a perfectly-timed snow day for that one! What do you think? One of my goals is to post more, and give a little bit more TLC to my blog. I’m really starting to get into…
I read a great post from Health Magazine about weight loss “super foods.” The list isn’t too shocking, but there are some interesting little tidbits in there. My favorites, plus some surprises: Garbanzo beans (a.k.a. chickpeas) – Garbanzo always makes me think of Gonzo, dancing in a vat of hummus. Speaking of hummus, I had some DELICIOUS…

Many thanks to the Grooveshark Electronica station for getting me through it. I used the Tabata Treadmill Workout that I found over on Carrots ‘N’ Cake, and it kicked my butt! I…

Sorry to be reviewing so many Mizuno volleyball products these days! I am finally getting around to writing reviews on all of the great stuff I purchased from Hock Sports. Volleyball trends come and go, but one that I will probably not ever get past is the long socks. I love wearing long socks to…
