Voting ends on Friday night at 9pm EST.

Very inspiring...and it got me thinking about how to make the new TT Hardcore 2K10 program even better...you'll probably see an interval program similar to the one I did today:

Today's workout: Dog walk, stretching, 10 sprints of 24 seconds with 36 second recovery. More stretching. That's it.

Today's Blender Drink comes in 2 versions...the "beginner's version" without any funky ingredients, and the "health freak version" that contains weird
stuff.

Beginner: Raspberries, strawberries, 1 banana, 2 cups 1% milk, cashew butter
Weird version: All of the above plus spinach, flax oil, and sesame seeds.

And some good resources for you to check out:

Resource #2

And finally, today's kick-butt mindset tip:

Kekich Credo #47 - "The right thing is usually not the easy thing to do. You may sacrifice popularity for rightness, by you'll lose self-esteem for wrongness. Don't be afraid to say no."

Be strong,

Hi Craig !
I'm a faithful reader of your blog, although this is my first comment (yeah !), and i'm not a customer (bouh !). But I often "steal" your philosophy and advices for my own workouts (bouh again !) ;-)

Congrats to the contestants, it's impressive, as usual ;)

I had a question about the abs video you posted on Facebook yesterday (3 favorites). Do you ever try the "pike" version of the swiss ball jackknife ? It's one of my favorites, I find it more challenging than your version.

(sorry for my english, i'm French)

Keep the good work ;)
