Uncovering the Truth about the Shape of Earth, ...

We as a human race are gullible.  Even with modern technology, satellite photos, history books, the internet, etc., there exists a contingent of human beings (click here) who are convinced that Earth is flat.  While I don’t possess the expertise to get into an astronomy debate with anyone with even a rudimentary education of the solar system, I can look at a globe and see it’s round.

Working Out at Home: Creating Tension

Recently, I have been getting a fair amount of questions about in-home workouts.  I have been reluctant to answer because my honest response is usually “join a gym”.  Depending on where you live, there is a gym in what seems like every square mile or so.  Gyms are good, even crappy ones are still pretty good because they have weights.  The science says weights make you sexy and strong.  My advice is usually go to where they keep weights and work-out there.

Why Moderation is Bull$&#t

99% of the time, I’m an easy-going kind of guy.  I try not to let much rattle me and have adopted a “never too high on my highs or too low on my lows” type of outlook.  Every so often however, something unhinges me a bit, and most often it’s fitness or nutrition related.

6 Fat-Loss Hacks You Can Add Daily

The basics of fat loss are simple.  There is nothing “quick and easy” about maintaining a caloric deficit for any length of time to drop unwanted fat, but that’s what is necessary to get it done.  Any blog post or infomercial claiming the next great fast fat loss system is usually trying to sell you something.  Or they don’t know shit, probably both.

Welcome to My Fitness Blog

If you've found this website deep in the nether regions of the internet, it's either because you know me personally and I sent you the link or you stumbled upon an article I have written in the past and wanted to see what's up.  As you can tell, I'm not a website designer. This modest site took me almost 8 months to put together.  In my own defense, during those 8 months I have been trying to maintain a quickly growing client load at my gym and raising a 3-year-old and an infant.  While WordPress is certainly user friendly, it's not something I recommend trying to learn in between cleaning up a diaper blowout from your daughter and playing trains with your son.  To say it's been a humbling experience would be an understatement.

Build the Shoulders Without Sacrificing Joint Health Using This Superset

If you are following any competent strength training program, you should be performing a variety of heavy compound movements such as bench press, overhead press, rows and pulldowns/pull-ups for the upper body.  If you aren’t, it’s time to bail on your current program and start from scratch.  Those are the basic movements of which there are a million different variations but including them is required for gains in size or strength.  My holiday analogy would be to think of these movements as the turkey and mashed potatoes of your training program, everything else is a side dish.

If you're already killing time on social media, you may as well lose body fat and increase lean muscle mass while doing it.
