SPORT – Week 2 Workout 1 (W2W1) Strength Workout
September 10, 2018 by
SPORT: W2:W1 Strength Day Building off of last week, this week’s goal is to beat last week’s lift totals on both of the main lifts. Remember, strength training is specific to you. If you’re a retiree who is just trying to stay moving, you may not trap bar deadlift. Instead, you may just use kettlebells from […]

SPORT W1:W4 GameDay Michael Scott’s Dunder Mifflin Scranton Meredith Palmer Memorial Celebrity Rabies Awareness Pro-Am Fun Run Race for the Cure Crossfit nicknames their workouts, which I like because it makes them easy to remember. It’s a lot easier to say we’re doing Murph today than saying we’re doing a […]

September 4, 2018 by
SPORT W1:W2 Metabolic Hypertrophy For the longest time, most people thought that you couldn’t combine resistance training with cardio. The story was they had to be separated because the physiological mechanisms supporting the(mTor, AMPK) conflicted with each other. So, if you lifted on Monday, you could either perform cardio after […]
SPORT – Strength Workout Week 1, Workout 1 (W1W1)
September 1, 2018 by
SPORT: W1:W1 Strength Day The first workout of the week is always dedicated to strength training. Why?

Should I lift weights?
August 29, 2018 by
Should I lift weights? Yes. Of course, I know you think because we’re a gym we have to say yes. And you’re right. Kind of. But, let me spin it this way. We don’t say yes because we have a gym. Instead, we have a gym because we say yes. Did I just blow your […]
Will the keto diet help me lose weight?

Keto is hot right now. In fact, it’s really hot. You probably have at least one friend right now that’s on it, and know of at least 5 other success stories from it (using your Kevin Bacon network, no pun intended). It even has its own brand of coffee, Bulletproof Coffee. So of course, you […]
Diets don’t work…
August 16, 2018 by
Diets don’t work. That’s not entirely accurate. 95% of diets don’t work over the long-term. But why? They should. From a physiological perspective, it’s simple. If you eat fewer calories than you burn (barring a medical condition), you should lose weight. So, on paper, it’s really as easy as eating less and exercising more. Unfortunately, […]
