…turn that frown upside down: wear a bright color. Initially I was in 2 minds about buying bright orange pumps. However every time I glanced down today, I couldn’t help but smile (and wish I had my shades on me ;)) …complete one exercise move: Try the deadlift. My current strength training program is predominantly made …
As a blogger, I get such a thrill out of sharing my knowledge/ideas with others. Over the months of reading other people’s blogs, I’ve come across such cool information/insight, workout ideas, and most importantly recipes.
