I wasn’t too sure what to call the blog page of a fitness website. Maybe something cool like, “The Weight Room” or “The Cantina of Mos Eisley” but neither were likely something that Gillian would approve of.

“Working Out the Gums” was another brainchild of mine. You know, when someone is at the gym and is yapping instead of lifting? But then I ‘googled’ it and… well… Let’s just say that I had to clear my search history and bleach my eyeballs.

Then I had the idea that, being a fitness blog, I could simply combine the two words and this would be “The Mighty FLOG” and again that name is a little disingenuous and probably links to a completely different kind of… workout? I don’t know.

Anyway, with all the fantastic names that I came up (Pumping Ink!) with the safest one was simply: Blog. I mean, that’s what it is, right?

This first post on the blog (a.k.a. ‘The Fortress of Blogitude’) is just an introduction to what you’ll find here in the future. The Blog section of the site is where we are going to share our mental journey; extended schools of thought on health and fitness. If you know me, and it’s highly likely that you don’t because my circle of friends is restricted to dogs, then you know that I’m a firm believer that the mental and physical aspects of health and fitness are more than intertwined. I don’t know what that would be, but it’s really, really close. Closer than ‘together’; more united than ‘the same damn thing’. They’re like peanut butter and jam. Han Solo and Chewbacca.

So put away your targeting computer and just feel—feel the Force and let it guide you back each and every time we update ‘The Blog’.
