Plowing [Some Adult Content]

Thursday, February 11th, 2010

In honour of yesterday’s (mini-)snowstorm, let’s talk about plowing. Except not the snow kind. Our good friend Bryan, a talented musician who humbly describes himself like so:

i uh… play some guitar
and some drums and some keyboards and some bass
and i like 60s psych and 90s shoegaze and perfect pop of any genre
i can like… carry a tune but the actual tonal quality of my voice kind of sucks
it’s not like a “good voice”
like the kind where people actually enjoy the sound of your voice

Anyhoo.. presenting “Plowing”

The Fresh Loaf: Year-End (Heel) Edition

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008
  • Brad Pitt with a mustache: hot or not? We asked Meatloafing readers this all-important question, and they were quick to respond. Bryan, 32, says it best:

    Bryan: always hot
    a little goofy looking
    but it’s ok
    if redford can do it pitt can do itbrad pitt
    that is the general rule
    Meatloafing: you are a wise man

  • Want to start 2009 the healthy, thrifty way? Have you packed on the holiday pounds? Feeling doughy? Want to save money for a trip to Morocco? In January, we’re brown-baggin’ it every day, and you can read all about it on the Loaf.

Mid-Summer Report

Friday, July 11th, 2008

Hello friends! We haven’t been Meatloafing much—or meating, for that matter (Except for burgers. We always need burgers.). It’s hot out, so that means we’ve been jumping off cliffs, riding the Cyclone with best friends, riding bikes, homebrewing kombucha (the ancient Asian wonder drink [note: future Meatloafing post about this]), and sprouting. Hippies. Summer! We love it.

Summer Fitness: Guide to Arms

Today we will focus on the core and upper body. Pushups and situps are classic. When done properly, you will strengthen your abs, arms, shoulders, and back—all while watching tv or hanging out in the park! Here is a video demo of Meatloafing-style pushups. Please note that in this video, my form is perfect, but my execution could use some work.

Hello Summer!

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

Last weekend marked the unofficial (but basically official—get real) start of summer. We enjoyed a BBQ, a cutthroat game of Apples to Apples, a leisurely bike ride to Rikers Island, and beautiful weather. Meatloafing offers 7 tips for a sensational summer:

  • Work on this season’s “it” muscle (according to Maggie, it’s the semitendinosus, the semimembranosus, and the biceps femoris, all of which make up what’s commonly known as the hamstring)
  • Bike often and wear a helmet
  • Don’t wear leggings as pants
  • Make sun tea in your office windowsill if you cannot actually go outdoors
  • Mollie’s Famous Lemonade
  • Constantly over-meat
  • Enjoy this timeless, yet often overlooked vegetable: Radishes!

[A note about our new look: It's actually our old look, and we're working on getting our new look back. Upgrading WordPress without backing up your old files is not recommended. Thank you.]
