  • I have two stories. Made me furious at the time, but now they are kinda funny. My Junior year 7 friends rented a house together. Things were rocky but ok. Well summer came, only two of us stay and the other rooms became subletted. The upper floor had three guys from a frat. The lower floor had three girls. One of the girls…
  • I do anything to ignore and not acknowledge it. i.e. my phone just became really interesting, there is a sign I have to read across the street, I just have to finish the last paragraph of my book. However, most of the time when this happens to me, I am on the L and the creeper will be just sitting or standing next to me. I…
  • In response to the person who somehow has worse grammar and spelling than I do. Which is saying something. Please Please Please stop posting falsehoods about my religion. Born and raised LDS.

  • I had knee surgery a few years ago. An elliptical is so much easier on my injured knee there is no other way to go. However, I prefer to go the dance studio move my hips over any stationary cardio.
  • I started this to compete with my room mate when I realized she was more fit than me. (green eye jealously I admit) However, I so badly want to be able to take a real dance class and not have to think, "gosh before I had knee surgery and became overweight I could do this". I was crazy fit, flexible, and strong. I felt…
  • Stretching to increase flexibility, or to your max limit, when you are cold can cause you to tear and damage the muscles and ligaments you are stretching. However, you can do light stretching to warm up your body and get blood flowing to the areas you plan on working out. Its all about what type of stretching you are doing.
  • The only time I am ever grumpy and/or pissed off after a work is session is for specific reasons. 1) I didn't get enough sleep the night before and my body is definitely reminding me of the fact. 2) I ate right before working out (less than 10 minuets) 3) I forgot to eat at all before my work out (i.e. I skipped my…
  • Thought: most dancers wont touch heavy weights and they look fabulous. However they use principles from yoga and pilates to build the lean muscle they need. I was like this when I was my healthiest and dancing competitively. Now that I am trying to get back into shape I focus on cardio. However I do take a few classes at a…
