Never Thought I’d Blog About This……
I know I’ve been absent for a few days, but lucky for you, I had seven bowls of awesome flakes this morning and I’m back with a vengeance. The seminar this weekend was fantastic. It was great to see so many people make the trip out to Hudson and Cassandra touched on many topics that… Read more

Real Girls DO Eat Meat
What a weekend. First, my girlfriend and I went to a house warming party in a swanky Boston suburb Saturday night and I actually didn’t want to kill myself. Yay me. Who knew rich people love to eat cheese and drink red wine while playing Nintendo Wii? High Five! Second, I pitched a no-hitter Sunday… Read more

Q: I read your article on T-nation regarding trigger points and I was thoroughly impressed. I have had extreme pain in my left hip abductors (I group them together in part because I am not 100% certain which one is the culprit). I have been using a tennis ball and foam roller to attempt alleviation… Read more
