Hating exercise and other reasons why we miss workouts and what we can do about it-Part I

Hi folks, Hope all is well!  Oh and HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!! A little story from my rugby playing days at Queen’s University in Kingston.

Happy day after SUPERBOWL 51!  Congrats to the Pats for an unexpected and spell-bounding comeback.  Best wishes go to the Falcons who had the Pats befuddled for 2 and 1/2 quarters of football.  Another lesson for all of us that success can be fleeting if 100% commitment to the objective is not consistent!  Anyhow, I feel a bit sorry for both teams because next year neither team will…
