  12. The importance of "staying fit"?!?

    Oh - and one more thing haha Remember what's the #1 injury they taught us in fundamentals class? Back injuries! Deadlifts, good mornings, Romanian dead lifts, and squats will help build a health and...
  13. The importance of "staying fit"?!?

    Stay fit for health. You are a nurse who's going to teach and preach health, so why not be a walking billboard. That doesn't mean THIN either. You need functioning an working muscles that will last...

    No offense but instead of being so negative in your last post, pick yourself up and take all the advice you were given. There are other baby sitters. You can make it happen if other people have done...
