Beer: Excuse for fitness?
 Who says your workout has to go by the waist-side during football season?
Sure you may spend extra hours, or even days, in front of the tube. But that doesn’t mean your belly has to completely go to flab.
We’re not suggesting skipping out on the big game. That would be completely irrational.
No, we’re talking about combining a little routine into the lineup.
It may not be the most efficient, but, yes, it’s fun. So crack open a beer, grab the remote and get ready for the NEXTnc football-game workout.
- Step 1: Ten reps with a beer can in each hand. Up. Sip. Down. Repeat.
- Step 2: Toss cheese puffs up in the air as high as you can and then catch them in your mouth.
- Step 3: During commercial breaks, jump out of your chair, run one lap around the coffee table to the kitchen. Your sprint should be fast enough to get to the fridge, open it, grab another beer and make it back before commercial break is over.
- Step 4: Repeat step 1.
- Step 5: At halftime, do a quick jog to the bathroom and back again.
- Note: Level of intensity can be adjusted by repeating steps 1 through 3.

|  | "Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. That is Alchemy's first law of Equivalent Exchange. In those days, we really believed that to be the world's one, and only truth." | |
|  | We're not that bright, even though in our own little world, we're geniuses. We like 80s hair bands and one-hit wonders, but among us we have respectable tastes, too. Metallica, Iron Maiden, U2. Pursuit of all things trivial is a lifestyle, not just a game. We like some sports, love other sports, and can find something to say about anything. We watch TV and movies and we've read a book or two, even a few classics (Yes, Classic Comics count!)
We call it insight, you call it what you will. | |

|  | Hola Amigos! I'm Sandra. I like to believe that people are 70 percent good and 30 percent dumb. I'm stickin to that story. Reading this blog might make you want to be good, but probably just dumb. | |

|  | What is up FoCo?
I am a recent college graduate of Minnesota State University Moorhead. After recieving my B.A. in English and Mass Communications this past August I moved down to Colorado.
I enjoy long walks on the beach, candlelight dinners, and heavy metal. My hobbies include reading and writing, music, movies, and getting drunk. Some of my favorite contemporary authors include Bret Easton Ellis, Chuck Palahniuk, and Kurt Vonnegut. My top movies are anything directed by Kubrick. I enjoy listening to anything that rocks.
Right now I am just trying to get to know Colorado and FoCo better. Mostly in order to find the best drink specials on each day that ends in Y. So if you know where I can get a cheap drunk on, let me know!

| | My name is Michelle Turley and I'm 28 years old. I live in Severance with my hubbie, Brandon. We have 2 dogs and a cat. We enjoy camping, four-wheeling, and just being in the mountains. I like to cook, clean (go figure), flea market, and play poker. I have so much to say about poker... | |
