I love weight training, and I love lifting big bulky weights! So there. But of course you knew that already, which is why I love you! Thanks! I might lift big bulky weights, but I can say with 100% confidence that I’ve never been called “bulky”. Why you might ask? After all, I can bench [...]
Happy Earth Day! I love Earth Day, I mean if anyone is against it than maybe they should just get off the earth, right? I have so much respect and awe for this amazing planet we live on, and as a biology dork (I was a bio major), it’s incredible to see and learn what [...]
First off, I finished a great guest post on the importance of weight training for runners for my friend Katie over at Peace, Love And Oats… You can read it here! If you like it, let her know, show her some love! I love Friday nights! They are almost guaranteed to look something like this: If [...]
OMG, I am so excited for all the stuff going on right now! Dan and I are literally busting our butts (in a good way) to bring some great stuff to the table… And while these will look awesome on your table: That’s not quite what I meant. For my Birthday you might recall that [...]
Over the course of the 7+ years that I have been with my husband, he has never tried to order a meal or even a coffee for me. In fact, normally he rolls his eyes at me and tells me to “go ahead and order your ‘thing’”. “Thing” because I never order straight off a [...]
“All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them.” – Galileo I’m a Christian, I believe in Creationism and yet, I know that Evolution is an absolute fact. I know this well because I trust and believe in the science but also because my daughter Brittani, a Worship [...]
I was determined today to get in a great workout. I feel like I’ve been pushing in the gym but because of my fear of injuring myself even more I have held back. You know what I mean? And today I was determined to get over it and push through a tough workout. And that’s [...]
I love my blog, don’t get me wrong but for the past several months I’ve been a bit unsure about it. With a title like Lifting Revolution, I felt held back on what I could discuss! And let’s be honest, I want to talk about EVERYTHING. So with the help of my husband, okay so [...]
Each day that I can’t work out my lower body I am getting a bit more stir crazy… I’ll be honest, I have had thoughts of “oh maybe walking on the treadmill won’t be so bad” or “the elliptical won’t put too much pressure on that knee” kind of talk in my head. But then [...]
The world is a comedy to those that think, a tragedy to those that feel. – Horace Walpole Wow, has Dr. Jack Kruse ever kicked-up a firestorm with his Cold Thermogenesis hypothesis, and the associated claims. Even to the point that I’m beginning to field questions about it from clients who are well outside of the Paleo “inside”, [...]
I would like to introduce you to my parents new puppy. Martini! Isn’t she just the freaking cutest thing in the world? The eyes, the face, the itty bitty paws! She is a 7-week Boston Terrier and let me tell you this little girl is feisty! She can barely walk, rolling over herself every few [...]
I have been excited about today for 2 weeks! That’s because our local Charleston farmer’s market is officially in full swing! I woke up laughing because it’s seems so funny that now as I’ve gotten older, I get far too excited for farmer’s market produce. It seems like just yesterday Saturdays were all about sleeping [...]
I was quite shocked to open up my email today and see a message from Oxygen (well I wasn’t shocked about that part) but I was shocked what the message contained: An announcement for Robert Kennedy’s death. If you’re unfamiliar with Mr. Kennedy maybe you are familar with his work: his publishing company is responsible [...]

Stuff happens, that is part of life. Sorry. But you can do one of two things… A. sit around and wallow in self-pity or B. Pick yourself up and do something! Unfortunately life isn’t the fairy tale story that we all thought it would be as kids, it’s not even the fairy tale story that [...]
