    Morning workouts - prep, routine and everything else

    @charlieparker I'll share my morning "workout from home" routine! I work at an office 9:00 a.m. to 5:30/6:00 and always workout in the morning. Twice a week at the gym, 3x a week at home. I also walk my dog every morning. 5:00 a.m.: wake up and make coffee. 5:30 a.m.: feed the dog, finish...

    What are your non scale goals for July/august?

    @uticus My non-scale goal when I started lifting was to get strong enough to lift my 80 lb senior dog. I knew the day was fast approaching when I'd have to help him more than I was physically able to at that point, so that was my main motivation. I reached that goal, luckily enough, right when...
