    Remember when you were a child and your grandmother (who I'm sure you adored) always looked old?  She might have been in her fifties but she was definitely "old" looking.  It's not that she aged, she simply looked the same age forever. Like all the other gran...

    This post is for anyone who's had one of those days at the gym.  You know, those days when you walk in without any kind of plan.  I've seen you, I've been there.  You walk in and say hi to a few people, wander over to the machines and do a little bit of this and a litt...
