Something Incredibly Stupid
October 24, 2009 by admin
I get stupid stuff posted on my youtube account all the time, but this one took the cake and ran a marathon with it. I laughed out loud when I got it.
Subject: GOOD LUCK TO YOU ! Body: But to be credible to people seeking answers, you must first have a body. Respectfully you have no shoulders traps, arms or chest. And I am not talking about huge muscles. Just the size that indicates you have actually put in time in a gym, Again good luck to you!!
Of course when I went to this guy’s youtube page he had no picture for comparison, and no videos.
On the interent nobody knows you’re a 14yr old kid just pulling stuff out your butt.

October 22, 2009 by admin
I’ve been noticing a problem with my clients recently: While on the one hand they are thrilled with how much fat they lose, how much muscle they gain and how much better their energy levels are; on the other hand in the back of their mind they are thinking, “I’m eating all of these egg yolks, all this beef and cheese, am I going to give myself a heart attack?”
This lingering doubt is so deep that even one of my clients who got OFF of cholesterol and high blood pressure meds by eating a TON of saturated fat and high cholesterol food, still has trouble believing his own results! Read more
Funny Story

Did you know that when you get your pants taken in they do it by moving the butt pockets closer together? I found that out the hard way!
I got my favorite black slacks taken in last year. While my waist was smaller, my butt muscles were bigger (nice if you’re a white guy) because of my workouts. At my rehearsal diner I split my pants from the top of my butt to half way down my thigh.
Who knows how long I was walking around my own party with butt literally hanging out.
Mine actually ripped farther down!
What Your Workout Is Missing and Why You Will Continue To Be Disappointed Without This
October 15, 2009 by admin
Most people start working out, get frustrated with their lack of results and quit, only to get into worse shape and end up even more frustrated and fat. Most people fail to get results because 99% of people are missing THE base ingredient for success in fitness.
Last week I go a really good question emailed to me by a Blog reader:
“What is your view on periodization? I always assumed that periodization should be used more for athletes or for folks with a deadline (sport, race, wedding etc.). Does an “everyday” client looking to lose body fat or general fitness need to do sets of 4-6 reps for a few weeks in order to reach their goals? (Weight loss, conditioning).
“I know the body adapts to the same workouts,

Wedding Pics
Pretty much every female client that I have has been asking for wedding pics (while none of my male clients care at all). These aren’t the pics that the professional photographer we hired took, but from a few of our guests.
Nat is a giggler. Right before the cake cutting. I got cake up her nose... by accident of course.

You know how you usually think of lobster as a very special and expensive treat? Well, not this year. Since people consider lobster to be a luxury food, demand is way, way down this year, and supply is way, way up thanks to really good oversight of fishing practices.
More supply + less demand = cheaper lobster.
It’s actually cheaper than steak right now. So, my fiancé (will be my wife tomorrow!) and I have been taking advantage.
I ate the other 5 before I could take this picture.
This weekend we went to Harris Teeter and got 8 lobster tails for about $21. (A year ago I think that one lobster tail in a restaurant was $20.)

Heavy Weights and Tiny Women: Lifting Heavy Makes Women Shrink
October 2, 2009 by admin
If you ask most women why they are lifting the super light pink dumbbells at the gym they will tell you. “I don’t want to bulk up.”
How’s Julie Benz for “bulky”?
She told People magazine that her secret weapon for staying fit is “Heavy, heavy lifting.” (She said “heavy” twice!) She went on to say, “As a woman, I can attest [that] you don’t bulk up – you actually trim down.”
I Got Beat By A Girl
The most I have ever picked up in a deadlift is 315 pounds. 105 pound Stephanie Kubik can deadlift 320 pounds. Does she look bulky to you?
