I love David Wolfe and his passion for health and superfoods. He has a new book coming out, which he discusses here. But the part I really liked is his discussion on whey protein–which is a cheap dairy by-product harmful to the human body! I wanted to share this with you, since many of you [...]

Wow, did we ever kill legs today! I am already sore, but that’s partly because I was doing plyometric leg exercises last night for my cardio intervals, so my legs were already pre-exhausted. I still got my heavy leg press, though!
Leg Workout:
Warmup on recumbent bike for 12 minutes
Leg press: 4 sets: 1 medium intensity with [...]

Wow, it has been a busy few days. I hosted a lovely jewelry party at my Living Well Cafe yesterday and served a brunch along with it, so that ‘regular’ gym folks could sample some gourmet Living Cuisine and be amazed by how delicious it is. The party went very well with a lot of [...]
