THIS!!! I train BJJ twice a week and my gym has a MMA(striking and no gi bjj) class that I try to make once or twice a week. There just isn't enough time for a guy with a family and a business to run...

My Grandfather grew up on a farm and they pretty much raised everything they ate when he was a kid. His whole life he ate meat, potatoes, vegetables and fruit with a little bread thrown in here and...

I agree 100%!!! I always say "I do not exercise and strength train because I enjoy it. I do it because it makes me a better husband, father and I like the way it makes me feel". With that said I do...

3 things that have really helped my knee pain.

Losing wight is by far the number one thing for me.

The better I eat the better my knees feel. Any time I have a weekend that I eat like crap my...

Of coarse lifting alone didn't make them skinny or look like Staci. Lifting alone does very little for anyone. A person needs to get on a program and stick to it plus eat for their goals. Consistency...

While I agree with you almost completely they look like that because of what they eat more than anything. Of course their goals are WAY different than 99% of women.

You do not really believe those women look like that BECAUSE they lift heavy weights, right?

Never have understood the whole Cross Fit thing. I will stick with 531 and running hills. God I hate running hills but love the way it makes me feel.

Agreed! Plus eat more. Add more food, see if you start gaining fat. If not eat more and so on. Once you start getting a little thicker around the middle drop your calories back just a little and work...

the biggest problem I see with these programs and their marketing is that it makes overweight and out of shape people believe that you have to do this crazy amount of "cardio" to be thin and healthy....

Hank,
My situation is very similar to yours. I started out very over weight and am now getting closer to my goal weight. About how many carbs a day have you found help your workouts? I may start...

Agree 100%! Now if there was just a good Muay Thai school in my area. Sparring and watching DVD's is okay but nothing like a real school. We do have a good BJJ school here though.

Yup, supposed to hit here(Quincy, IL) around noon. We are always prepared buy my MIL needs to be taken care of out at her house. Looks like I get to shovel snow all morning tomorrow.

For Jui Jitsu the Gracie Combatives DVD's are fantastic if you have a dedicated training partner. My training partner is an Army level 4 combatives intructor and a MMA fighter and we are working...

I know if I eat a little sugar it is going to get out of hand real quick so I just avoid it as much as possible. I stopped smoking cigarettes over 15 years ago and still crave one every once in...

To me intensity is more about the effort you put into a workout and not the volume. If you are only working at 75% this would not be that intense. If you are working closer to 100%(to failure or...

This is just an opinion from a 46 year old guy but there is no way I would try to squat and deadlift on the same day. I squat and press on Monday and deadlift and bench on Thursday(with other...

Who gives a F**K what they think it it is . Just eat what you want and let them do what they want.

I don't really care what anyone does as long as they are not doing stupid crap in my power rack at the gym!

Love smoked chuck roast! I finish mine on the smoker wrapped in foil with a little bit of bourbon poured on top. Tastes fantastic!

Exactly what I am doing now, a photographer. It's what I have always wanted to do but just started doing it for a living 6 years ago. I thought I wanted to do it for the artistic release but I now...

Pal? All I am saying is read the freakin book and do some research before you call a training method "dubious". Keep your mind closed and keep doing what you are doing if you like but don't bash...

Actually quit a few collegiate and NFL teams have strength and conditioning coaches who follow the HIT philosophy. The slow part of BBS is to save the wear and tear on joints and tendons. If you read...

That is pretty closed minded of you. You really don't know what it is about but you know you don't want to do it. Read the book, it makes a lot of since if you open your mind to the possibility that...

I workout mid-morning and there are several older gentlemen there at that time. Everyone of them regrets all of the crazy "fitness" stuff they did 20-30 years ago. They deal with joint pain,...
