3% in body fat

Why did Booty Camp work for me?

Booty Camp: Week One

September 10, 2008

I started a new category on this blog today and called it: Fitness.  Be forewarned that this may be the first and last post under that category.    While I am by no means completely out of shape, I have been known to be "athletically challenged".  Perhaps it is more of a self-fulfilling prophecy ignited by a childhood experience on a baseball [...]
