Say what you will, nothing works for a regime like a juice cleanse combined with Bikram. Seriously, the two together are unstoppable.   [Although I did have a bit of a very faint, dull headache this morning which I realized was withdrawing from caffeine.] Anyway, so many promotion things in the works for t...

I think the hardest thing about looking for apartments when you’re overly creative, is that you are constantly projecting yourself into them not only as a tenant, but also in a Big Picture sense of “what would my life be like if I lived here….?” It’s exhausting. I’m not ...

“Resistance” is one of those New Age-y terms that’s always semi-baffled me. It’s one of those super-annoying, over-arching explanations for why you’re not getting what you want –– “because there’s a lot of resistance around this” –– when it’s usually so...

After my plateau, I made great strides in my Lumosity scores today + I am proud to say (and did say on my secret Tumblr blog) that I’m down 0.7% in body fat, too. However, in one newer game Koi Pond where you have to feed each fish a pellet with a three second delay between each feeding (note:  the f...

Dismayed to wake up after a day of  perfect fitness and diet to find that … I am exactly the same. Down to the tenth of a pound, or fraction of an inch, or percentage of BMI (Body Mass Index.) I don’t know what I was expecting, but I wanted at least a little reward after all my Good Behavior. I...

Anyone who knows me, knows that my very favorite fitness book ever is CONVICT CONDITIONING by Paul “Coach Wade.” I love its subtitles:  “How to Bust Free of All Weaknesses –– Using the Lost Secrets of Supreme Survival Strength.” The author spent 19 years in San Quentin and the like ...
