Favorite Excuse for Not Working Out: I'm Too Tired After Work
We all have our favorite excuses for not working out but if yours is, "I'm just too darn tired after work to go to the gym," then here are some tips for you:
- Go straight to the gym after work. Stops at home or anywhere else (where people are not working out) may lessen your chances of making it to the gym.

Biking Basics: Presta Valves vs. Schrader Valves
Bike tires are a complex science unto themselves — I've heard people say, "It's not about the bike; it's about the tires."
