I love weight training...so much that sometimes I "skip" my cardio on those days (which isn't very good to do). Stretching before and after your workouts could help with the soreness factor, increases flexibility, and will reduce the likelihood of injuring yourself. As for traveling, there are a few things you can still do at the hotel if they don't have a fitness room (e.g., squats, crunches, push ups, etc). I actually have bands that I throw in my suitcase to use those if I'm going to miss a weight training day. I tried clicking on the link you had in your most recent post on movie theater popcorn, but it kept going to an error page. I'm definitely interested in reading about that because that is something that I have eating once a week lately. :-/ Not good. Michelle Keep up the good work!

It helps to see what others are doing as they start lifting weights. I'm just beginning myself, and wondering if the exercises I chose are "balanced"....they are similar to what you are doing. Nice to have that comparison. Thanks for posting this. It helps to see what others are doing as they start lifting weights.
