Stuff to Read While You’re Pretending to Work: Autoregulation, Busting Through Plateaus, and Probiotics
Unfortunately I have to keep this one pretty short today. Lisa’s dad and step-mother flew into town yesterday from the Dallas/Ft. Worth area and after taking them out to a nice dinner, we all walked back to our apartment where Amanda (Lisa’s step-mother), busted out her iPad so that we could all play Ellen DeGeneres’… Read more
Miscellaneous Miscellany Monday: Lots of Catching Up to Do Edition
1. Another busy weekend in the books! Yesterday I had the pleasure of being invited to speak at the New Hampshire Athletic Trainer’s Association annual symposium. A few year’s back I remember attending a similar function with Eric at Northeastern University and walking in with jeans on and feeling completely out of place. Apparently I… Read more
Seven Favorite Meals

Is There Such a Thing As “Knee Friendly” Squats?
Not long ago I filmed a vlog about the difference between box squats and squats TO a box. While to the casual fitness enthusiast there may be no differentiation between the two variations (a squat’s a squat, right?), these are probably the same people who feel PCs are the same thing as Macs. That’s just… Read more
How to Become a Beautiful Badass
I’m baaaaaaaaaack. Sorry for the delay in getting anything up this week, but as you all know, Operation Co-Habitation was in full swing this past weekend. And, while everything is moved in and essentially put away (for the most part) – we’re also dealing with… Read more
Miscellaneous Miscellany Monday: 1/31/2011
My girlfriend has been away for the past ten days doing some consulting work down in Colombia, and while it was nice to have some free time to hang out with the boys, leave the toilet seat up, burp out loud, and chew food with… Read more
