What’s the point of compression sleeves?

Tuesday, August 30, 2011

68 Comments

For those of you who may not know, this is a compression sleeve: (Im lobbying for a TATTOO-pattern Misfit Sleeve!) I already knew I loved me some Zensah compression apparel. I love my Zensah compression skirt & sports bra: I adore my PINK Zensah compression tank-top: I’m painfully aware (literally & metaphorically) I’m not a [...]

I love the interwebs, even more so over the past several years with the advent of social media growing so much. It makes the world a much smaller place. Without the interwebs, I likely would never have met any of the phenomenal fitbloggers I’ve had the joy of meeting in person, like our own MizFit [...]

(Yes, People, we are starting way back.  You’re lucky this post didnt being with baby pictures.  You can thank me for those edits later.)   Muffin Morning. Meet the teacher morning.

You have to start out small. Do not look at the big number you need to lose by the time you are done. Set small reachable goals like 5% of your weight or 5 or 10 pound increments. Each time you reach one celebrate! Chipping away at 120 pounds was easier when I looked at [...]

Subtitle: No Tornado. No cry. Ahhh People. Ive been derailed from the workouts PLAYouts over the last month or so. It has been hotter than the proverbial Mo Fo in the ATX and, quite frankly, I chose (theres that word again) to follow the Tornado’s pre-K lead and do what she wanted to do. We [...]

Ive judged you.

(At the spring kindergarten round-up, post-bus ride & clutching her free chocolate milk) Oh people. As the title states: Ive judged you. And, by way of full disclosure, there’s a pretty good chance Ive mocked you too. A little to your face (Im upfront like that) & more than a little at home to Ren [...]

(Our hidden talent of interpretive dance as captured by the Tornado) It’s coming again soon. Git ready. Hone those completely random talents & skills you’d heretofore thought useless and unimportant. Gather your small children, pets, random household items and commence practicing. It’s right around the proverbial corner.   *Yeah, we used the term (finger quote) [...]

Many thanks to Stephanie for sending this blog post my way.   It completely amazes me MizFit is four and a half years old. (I look back on the blogging I did in 2001, too, and snicker at how rudimentary it all was—but that’s a different discussion for us old fogies post) It seems like [...]

Is Minimalist Running for You? If you are into running at all, you’d have to be living under a rock to not know that barefoot running is a huge trend right now. For some it’s a scary prospect. For others, it’s the only way to go. I’m not going to get into the debate, although [...]
