I did HCG, under my (paleo-supporting) doctor's supervision. June, 2010: 269 to 245 pounds. September, 2010: 245 to 225 pounds. January 2012: 225 to 210 pounds.

At the end of the last round I...

I use one , not too tight, to remind me to think about my form on dead lifts.

Check out "Squat Rx" on youtube.

I just bought some shin sleeves--mine are beat up too.

Yes, me too. Only took me 5 days to remember what TOM meant -- and I've been married since 1968. D'oh!

Lots of good suggestions above. I also do partial TGU as a warm up before lifting, that is, only the first four positions.

I'm sure you are right in most cases. But some of us (me) avoided squats for years because of CW advice (from the 60's and 70's -- along with a lot of other bad advice I'm trying to undo) and my main...

These are some of the exercises I had to do to rehab from knee scope. Still, after a year, I too couldn't go past 45 degrees. found some exercises called "Squat Rx" on youtube". 18 months later I can...

The primal energy bar recipe here on MDA is great.

In an article on grains by Rob Wolff he writes:


But I Like Bread and Pasta!
Yes, I like that stuff too, but they make me sick. I suspect it makes you sick, as well. Not only do grains make you...

I'm in a similar place -- only started lifting heavy, bar bells only (no machines) about a year ago. I started with weights that were easy to handle to get form right. Now I'm getting to weights that...

All we go for is deals on wine.

I had similar problem this week. Tuesday couldn't dead lift the same weight I did the previous Thursday. Giving it a week off.

I get a bag of lard with mine. With large enough pieces I make "lardo" and render the rest. Lots of on line instructions.

I tan once a week in Winter on doc's suggestion for psoriasis. Fringe benefit is it puts me in better mood.

I also have psoriasis. I tan once a week in the Winter (Dr. recommended) . Absolutely improves mood.

I noticed it a few weeks ago, thought it was too good to be true, read the label and grabbed it. Felt giddy. Just opened it today.

Not looking forward to first workout of 2013. I will be elbowing my way to the squat rack through the hoard of "resolutioners". It should be back to normal in a few weeks. Hopefully a few of them...

I quit drinking beer. It gives me similar symptoms to eating wheat. A good substitute at a gig or after long night at job is 1 shot scotch and 8 oz. club soda. 2-3 times a week red wine.

You can find cast iron pans at re-sale shops.

I don't know if this was mentioned but I like to grind about a half tsp. of cacao nibs in with my coffee beans.

I also get 1/2 or 1/4 Grass fed beef every year. Two years ago my meat guy switched from beef cattle to dairy. He said the grass fed "foodies" he was in touch with said that worked better....

Right with you!

Be careful when you grab them. Hooves are very sharp.

Just switched up part of my weight routine this week. I tried doing one set to failure on dead lift. Wow! (I've been doing variations of 5 - set routines, 3 weeks training, one week off.)

My 1 rep...
