		<description>I started a new leg workout again today. It&amp;#8217;s really not THAT different than the recent leg workouts I&amp;#8217;ve been doing, but it&amp;#8217;s a lot quicker and more intense.

However, the supplements I&amp;#8217;m about to tell you about are all natural. I&amp;#8217;m not talking about fat blockers, thermogenic fat burners, carb blockers or any of [...]

My husband and I both wanted to do cardio today since we didn&amp;#8217;t yesterday so while one of us ran, the other one did abs. It worked out pretty well!

		<description>Today&amp;#8217;s workout pissed me off. I don&amp;#8217;t know why but the past 3 weeks I&amp;#8217;ve been flat benching 85# and it feels as if it&amp;#8217;s getting harder each week. Shouldn&amp;#8217;t that be the opposite?? Usually that happens to be the case, but not as of late. I feel like I&amp;#8217;m stuck at 85 pounds. Today [...]
