My b-day is around the corner and I'm dropping ideas left and right. Last year I got a dumbell rack! Yay! (seriously..it made me happy). This year I'm begging for this little number....I present to you the 6-pack bag!
Giddy me...a spot for ALL my crapola I carry around all day...It comes in grey and pink too....eeeek!
Apparently, per my Athletic Therapist, I should also be spending some quality time on a foam roller...me..not as giddy about this option...And finally, I need a set of these babies..
according to Tim I can just use my 10's or 15's but I really need the 12's....I really do..so if you're reading this Tim...pleeeeeeese?

So there you have it. My fitness wish list.

What's on yours?

  2. I love my 12's! And I have 10's and 15's. See Tim?

    I have the foam roller, it was an impulse buy for the old IT band. Hate it. It did not help and if anything made it more sore.

    Great wish list but where is the camera lense?

  3. Yes...you NEED the 12's!!!! I couldn't survive without mine ;) I've heard a foam roller is supposed to feel good, but it doesn't look that way!
