Belgian Pale Ale Tasting

I’m going to miss Body Pump 72.  This final week definitely worked my muscles.  My poor mom sliced her thumb while changing the weights on her bar and missed half of the bicep track to go get a band aid.  Despite the minor injury, I’m really proud that my mom increased her weight for a [...]

Hallo-Recap
