Okay, I’m not going to fake it. I know very little about football. Men with shoulder padding wear tights and jump on each other every few feet. Then there’s a pigskin ball they throw and catch for points.

A few months ago, my boss took the crew out to enjoy a live game and I must say that it was more entertaining than being an armchair fan. Plus you could just sense the excitement in the air as people cheered on their favorite players (and badmouthed others).

It also helped that we wore customized jerseys and that we scored the sweetest VIP seats, which were right on the field! Yeah, the whole place was green with envy, I’m sure. We were even on the big screen…(Ah yes, the things I have to endure just for being a writer…haha!)

Don’t worry, my bragging ends here. Now is the time where I drop an amazing offer. If you’ve managed to read this far, you certainly deserve it!

Christmas is over. It felt like you spent days sitting at the table, consuming mountains of food beyond your most fantastical hallucinations. Somewhere in between the appetizers and the main course, you had to loosen your belt one notch.

Then came dessert, and you ate a quarter of your weight in sugary treats, barely coming up for air. Ahh, ’tis the life, indeed! With God as your witness, you will never go hungry again!

Life is too short to treat yourself like you’re in diet boot camp! Indulge - you deserve it. Besides, it’s not like you’re feasting like this every single day. It’s the holidays, and what would a holiday be without tempting and delicious food?

But sometimes we become lazy during this time. The cold weather keeps us indoors, the pumpkin pie in the fridge calls our name at all hours of the night, and people keep giving you holiday snacks, dammit!

Balance your act and devote some time each day to exercise. It could be a brisk walk around the neighborhood block, sweating it out at the gym doing crunches, or getting down on all fours and scrubbing that tub (yes, it is a workout in itself!).

If you’re feeling ambitious, or if it’s on your New Year’s resolution list, take up a new sport like snowboarding, skateboarding, or in-line skating. There’s no better way to get toned while having fun.

And there’s no better place to get your gear than from Blades.com. Stock up on what you need to stay comfortable and perform your best. Don’t forget to use the coupon until January 31 to get 20% off your entire order!

Happy holidays!
