You may recall, especially if you have nothing better to do than sit around in your beanbag chair all day reading crotchety feminist blogs in your underoos, that I previously did a guide to self-waxing featuring the Nair sugar wax kit and titled it “A Lady’s Guide to Waxing,” aimed toward all those of you […]

So we’re all squatting. (You are squatting, aren’t you? You’ll love it, I promise!) And squats are great, both for strength gains and for aesthetic gains. But maybe you really just want to focus on nice light weight and high reps and not worry about strength gains today. Or maybe you have a knee that […]

1) Metallica – Fuel Metallica will start your workout off with fuel, fire, and – dare I say it? – that which you desire. 2) twenty one pilots – Guns For Hands I love how, just when you think you know exactly where the downbeat is coming, twenty one pilots surprises you again. 3) Rise […]
