Lifestyle Smutty Fitness: Vegetarian & Paleo Hi Hayley, I love your column and your balanced, focus way of talking about fitness. I'm writing with a question about diet.

Lifestyle Smutty Fitness: Squats or Lunges? Hi Hayley! I'll keep it short: squats or lunges? (or both?) Thanks P ___ BOTH! In my opinion you can never do enough lunges or squats.

Lifestyle Smutty Fitness: Summer Sins The sins of summer. You all know what I am talking about when I say this, right?
