you don't need equipment - if you want, let me know & i can hook you up with a decent body weight workout, or even a really cool yoga site...

^^^ This. Additionally, I've found kettlebells have done wonders for me, and Calix is enjoying and benefiting from the workouts as well. A minimal investment for the actual kettlebell but it's cheap compared to anything else. Then you can work out for free as long as you want. And there are numerous exercises that can target any muscle grouping you want.

Kettle Bells are great (I gots one), but should not be your only workout routine. It has been proven even with proper use that KB's are bad for your back for over half the workouts they are used in.

i would have to disagree with that - it's practically impossible to prove that any exercise *done with proper form* is bad for you.

that being said, there is quite a bit of a learning curve to kettlebell workouts, and it's best to have your form checked by someone who knows what they're doing. that's the great thing about bodyweight exercises - with no serious additional weight to mess up your form, it's really hard to do them improperly.

eevee, i'll try to send a pm later tonight - got to head out for work about 30 minutes ago...

OH MY GOD! I WANT ONE! Tis the cute!!!

Truthfully tho... I wonder if thats real... If someone painted the kitty... That would be mean... Kinda looks photoshopped...

No it's a new fad. The dye is 100% natural ink that is safe for pet use. I believe it started in Asia and worked its way over here. People try to put extravagant clever designs on their pets (like this Pikachu), some just like the color. It threw me off when I let my cat out last spring. After sitting on the porch for a minute watching her roam around, another cat from the neighborhood walked up and she was PINK. I have pics and everything of her standing next to Gitzie, maybe I'll upload them. I had to ask the person though (mostly because I was concerned they were using real human dye on the cat, which is dangerous) and they told me all about how it's natural pet dye.

    • Being astonished... Amazed even, that after gawd awful pain for weeks, now in much less pain it's made me feel mildly okay about living, where just 3 weeks ago in the same condition I'm in now, i was still miserable anyway. Everything being much worse o'er the past two weeks has given me new appreciation for the typical degree of dumpster fire that my life generally is. Now i been looking at it like, "nice, this dumpster fire is way better than that sewage treatment plant fire over there. Damn y'all, I'm sure happy to be in this dumpster fire, not that $h¡† hole  over yonder at least... Hey this is a great dumpster fire here, fo real." Lol
    • Tron you seem to chauffeur a lot. I'm curious if you had any vehicle to choose from, what automobile would you most want to drive for chauffererizing or whatever the future tense twice removed description-like verb, exploitative deleted, adjectiverb or idkwtf form of that word. Errr uh, shit you know what i mean what automobile would you most prefer to cheuffer individuals out of in all the world over? Yeah. $64,000 question of the day right there. Lol 
    • Mine went great, i finally haven't been in excruciating multiple shattered rotted tooth collapsing corroding jawbone pain for most of a whole day for the first time in a week and I went and bought shoes for all three kids and a bunch of clothes they needed at great deals that the wife will be furious and unhappy about.... I mean already is mad about, the second that i told her. And i bought a fresh ass pair of Nike LeBron's for 20 bucks too, which also was great since i left my under armour boots behind at the last hotel like a dumbass. Whooo, i think it was the first day in weeks that i was only mildy miserable instead of being absolutely fμ¢k¡ⁿ miserable like usual lmao. Sry i had to say it somewhere and right here jumped right the hell out at me lol.
    • Warming up.  A couple of hours of cutting grass in this 44 degree weather and I froze.  I am contemplating going back out before the Sun goes down, but most likely, stuff will have to wait until tomorrow's high. 
    • Finally got a clear day to get back to the yardwork and clean out situation.
