How to Lose Weight While on Vacation
Many times you hear people say that they need to get into shape for summer or for vacation so that they can have a good time without the hassle of paying attention to trifles like health and wellness. What I find strange about this sentiment is that fitness is a lifestyle and not an activity, but the information spread through the media would lead us to believe that getting in shape is an activity. The other thing about vacations is that the people who frequently do the cliché activities are walking/talking proof that America has an... [Read more]
My Guide to Having a Great Gym Experience
Starting a gym can be as intimidating as walking out of your house butt naked and many times folks fall into the same newbie pitfalls that brings unsolicited attention to them, and makes it worse in the long run. Prior to going into the gym I would advise you to find a good resource whether it’s through a gym rat friend (of the same sex), online or in a fitness magazine. Read and learn a bit about gym routines, what they are made to do and structure a plan based on it – this is if you want to avoid the price (and general trial/error... [Read more]
Women Please Choose Health Over Hair
Lately when talking to women about choosing the salon over the gym, I am given the feedback of “we get our hair done for y’all”, yet all of the guys I talk to say “we will take a girl with jacked up hair if she has a banging body” – so there seems to be a disconnect. Let me preface this by acknowledging that many guys are posers and are full of shit when talking to other men about their interactions with females. A guy who says he doesn’t care about hair may very well be the dude telling you... [Read more]
Embrace Your Inner Hippie
As we get closer and closer to the Space-Aged future, we tend to look past the natural pleasures that Mother Earth has shared with us since time eternal. We get up, drink our coffee, put on our shoes and jump onto the track to run with our fellow rats in order to keep our lives secure and our minds sane. A few times out of the year we take vacations and do more stressful things such as make travel plans, book early tickets and lock in the best rates in order to “get away”. Still, this construct of clichéd “escape” is pretty much... [Read more]
YoYo Workouts and The Fitness Lifestyle
Yoyo dieting is easy to call out but everyone seems to ignore the fact that people yoyo workout probably more than they do the dieting. The reason for this is due to two things, 1. A lack of education when it comes to your body and how it works and 2. The workout excitement wave being fun to ride but hard to maintain. In this article we are going to touch on the second point about the wave. I recall the first time I saw that P90X infomercial I rolled my eyes. Not out of hate for the inventor or for the program itself, but because I... [Read more]

Holiday Season and Dieting – Put up or Shut up!
So it’s that time of the year when gyms are empty, people are concentrating on shopping and bank accounts are getting drained. Ironically as we all watch the NFL and College Football athletes perform at the highest level, physiques echoing the training and sacrifice made to their bodies for the glory of the sport, we somehow manage to ignore our own. There is little to no chatter made about the gut getting fatter and the muscles atrophying as we consume beer, burgers, hotdogs and chips, while screaming at the television as Eli Manning...

Dieting the Right Way – Counting Calories

For each of these categories, a certain formula is adapted before making a meal plan, this is weighed in caloric intake. Bulking: 20 x Bodyweight... [Read more]
About Abs and The Secret to them
Well as you know diet is the supreme factor of bodybuilding and it is the difference between looking okay and looking in-shape. If a person works out alot and eats what they want, they will get some size and look pretty good but If a person diets right (ie: sticking to a plan), and workouts alot, they will turn heads. People who workout alot and are lax on the diet usually wonder how to look like the hard-body running through the mall wearing something nasty to show-off. Well the difference is that guy, as gay as he looks is probably... [Read more]
