New Rules Of Lifting For Women

Lifting FAQ – or my secret superpower!

First off – NROLW or New Rules of Lifting for Women. That topic occupied quite a bit [...]

Guest Post: Andra from Love to Eat, Hate to Exercise

Many thanks to Lori for opening up her lovely blog to guest posters. I hope she’s having a grand time on holiday!

For those that don’t know what the heck I have been talking about when I write NROLW for the last 6 months, it is this:
