When I Started:

How I Started:

Why I Love It:

I'm working out at Extreme Fitness, and try my hardest to shed 5 lbs by May 23rd, I'm excited to see my statistics on that day. I want to decrease my body fat percentage and increase lean muscle. I will set monthly goals.

About a week and a half after my first evaluation I got into a big...
Courtney: Ah. Set backs do suck don't they? I broke a rib a week ago which has rendered it impossible to do any core exercises. Hate it.
All we can do is what you've already stated......... train around it.
Best of luck with your future training.
