Realm health and fitness tips from Kyle
Work out routine of the month: Dumbbell Thruster
The Dumbbell Thruster is an amazing full body exercise that can jump start a workout if done with heavy weights before, or it can be an excellent way to end your work out session if done with lighter weights.
Here are the instructions on how to do a Dumbbell Thruster. You can also look to Youtube to watch a video on appropriate form.
- Start with your feet a little wider than shoulder width and hold dumbbells on your shoulder with your knuckles facing up and your elbows straight down in front.
- Descend back into a squat while keeping your elbows high.
- As soon as you reach the bottom position begin to stand up.
- As soon as you reach the top push the dumbbells up with the momentum from your hips.
- Catch the dumbbells and start again.
Sprinkle this into your leg day, shoulder day, or work out when you need to sweat!

British series Cucumber and Banana comes to Logo TV

Welsh T.V. producer and screenwriter, Russel T Davies, who gave us the 1999 mini series Queer As Folk, is bringing his new shows Cucumber and Banana to the US on Logo TV. The first episodes of Cucumber and Banana will air after RuPaul’s Drag Race on Monday, March 2 at 10pm ET/PT. The two shows will then return for their official season premieres on April 13.
According to the press release, “The two interwoven drama series will explore 21st century gay life in all its powerful, witty, dark and uplifting guises through the lens of two disparate generations.” I’ll admit I’m curious to check out this series. The original UK eight episode series QAF was pretty shocking and pushed the envelope. The US series sort of lost its way as Showtime tried to expand that initial storyline but its in-your-face unapologetic look at gay life in the late 90s had a frenetic energy. Theo Merz who writes to the UK paper, The Telegraph, feels neither series lives up to QAF but I’d still like to check it out and decide for myself. If you live in the Boston area is Channel 281. If you live elsewhere, check with your local provider to see if they carry Logo-TV.
Reposting: Vote for SoWa as America’s best art district
USA Today has nominated Boston’s South End district – SoWa – as one of America’s best art districts alongside 19 other communities including places like Chelsea-NYC, Warehouse District-NOLA and Station North-Baltimore.
Voting ends at 12PM on Monday, March 2, 2015.
Vote Boston’s SoWa District as America’s best art district
Help raise the profile of SoWa and click on the link above. At the bottom of the page select “Vote”. It would be wonderful to have SoWa recognized. This one-time derelict neighborhood, better known for burnt out buildings and crime is now one of my favorite parts of Boston.

Saturday night video: SNL Serial Parody
OMG this is hilarious. The SNL skit appeared during the holidays when I was out of the country so much thanks to my friend Tracey for telling me about it. I was absolutely addicted to the Serial Podcast and this is brilliantly done.
