  1. How awesome that you have a great home gym–and 90 minute treadmills—ahhhh!
    I work from home and all the time I have to check what day it is. Whoops.
    Favorite and easiest workout for arms = push ups!

  2. On long weekends when I don't have my usual routine they totally blend together!

    Push-ups, and weight assisted pull-ups and dips are my fave weight room arm exercises… but lately I've been getting my arms fix in TRX!

    I'm totally the same way with not wanting ppl to think I wussed out and only ran for 6 minutes! (Or worse, walked when I reset the treadmill for my cooldown!)

  3. I'm a stay at home mom so my days always run together, lol.
    Definitely take that KB class!! I love KB's and you seriously don't need an ounce of coordination to do it 🙂 Best workout ever!

  4. I am TOTALLy a hummingbird arm girl. Thanks for the tips although now I need tip son how to WANT to do this :). All I wanna do is rrunnnnn….:)

    PS: I will reply to your email soon – hope the move went well!!!

  5. vanessa…hey, so long as i'm not the only one trapped in alldaysblurtogether world. in fact, let's start just making up our own days of the week, k?!

    kristine, haha…okay, i can not feel u more about the walking cool-down thing on the treadmill!!

    haley, if i end up killing someone because of a blow to the head from my wayward kettlebell i'm bringing u in as my defense. 🙂

    margs, i think SkinnyRunner has some of the best tips for motivation: think of really hot guys while doing it and then gals with crazy fab bodies. 😛

  6. Hi! This is kind of off topic but I need some advice from an established blog. Is it very hard to set up your own blog? I’m not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty quick. I’m thinking about setting up my own but I’m not sure where to begin. Do you have any points or suggestions? Thanks

    • Hey Kevin, thanks for stopping by! if you want my two cents (i’m flattered you’d consider my blog as established enough FOR advice…hehe), don’t worry starting a blog is incredibly easy. i would recommend opening up a free one with WordPress and just start writing! it is very easy and will walk you through it all and you can then just add in more pages/extras as you go along and get more comfortable. down the road you can think about buying the domain to make it all your own and drop the .wordpress from the URL depending on what your own goals are for your blog. but think about why you want to blog, who your intended audience will be, and try to come up with a genre or niche theme. there is another blog Peanut Butter Fingers that has a wonderful ongoing advice series she does that is really insightful and full of advice, here is the link to the latest one: http://www.pbfingers.com/2011/08/23/blog-talk-tuesdays-part-v/

      hope that helps and always feel free to ask more questions! 🙂
