30 Day Shred- Every day or not?
Jus started tonight. I'm still feeling the burn! I'm in love with the workout! I'm trying to get in shape because in January I'm leaving for Africa with the Peace Corps. I'm going to have to bike a lot and I think it's a good idea to get in shape now instead of when I'm dealing with culture shock in another country. So the…
