All body types are unique and beautiful, but have you ever wondered why people store fat in certain areas of their body?

Anabolic steroids could possibly be the most misunderstood class of drugs prescribed today. Steroids are believed by many to be some sort of magical potion that will turn ordinary men into muscle bound monsters with super human strength. Prescription drugs as a whole are viewed as medications that are a necessity to treat a particular medical condition, while recreational drugs are viewed as substances that lead to addiction, crime, and violence. On the other hand, anabolic steroids are viewed as the drugs that fuel cheating athletes. Sports fans sit on barstools discussing steroid use among professional athletes any time ESPN...  Read more →

Unusually big appetite can be a symptom of health problems, but there could be some other reasons why you can’t stop eating.Here is an explanation to why you are always feeling hungry.     You eat too much carbohydrates If your evening meal was rich in carbohydrates, it is very possible that the next day you’ll feel hungry, even after you eat.

Because your blood cannot tolerate too much sugar, your body naturally produces the...  Read more →

Valentine's Day might be the worst but romance is not. Here's how to give a romantic gift—on February 14th or any day of the year—that fuels the fire, instead of igniting a blowout fight. know which cliches are fair game. Teddy bears are generally a bad idea, chocolates will work just fine, and sex toys are appropriate on a case-by-case basis (if you have to think about it, don't do it). These gifts should go over exceptionally well; while they're typical, they're also the kind of crowd-pleasers that get the job done.     Flowers Instead of grabbing an $8.99,... Read more →

Many of us seem to think that losing weight demands careful planning and plenty of dedication and patience, while gaining mass is easy and doesn’t require any special attention – just lift a bunch of heavy weights for an hour every day and your muscle growth will explode, right? Wrong, because your diet amounts to almost half of your bodybuilding success and you can’t expect great results if you don’t put in the effort to feed your body properly. Other people, who at least realize that eating like a bird won’t help you build a mammoth physique, tend to favor... Read more →

One hundred. It’s crazy, right? In regard to reps per set, it’s huge. You may not have ever considered cranking out a set of 100—until now. The training style popularly known as 100s targets slow-twitch muscle fibres and permanently enhances blood flow to your muscles. In other words, it’s a unique and effective means of boosting growth. And there’s nothing crazy about that.     Okay, so some famous and semi-famous bodybuilders ripped out marathon sets. But does it work? And if so, how does it work? Advocates claim it boosts growth, enhances muscularity, and brings a subtly different look... Read more →

Try to walk into the gym any Monday, and you'll see the majority of guys working like mad on their pecs. So why is it that chest usually leads off the training week? Well, because big pecs are cool! Just by remembering  the Terminator, Rocky, and Superman we see why most men covet massive, thick, and striated pectorals. The funny (or sad really) thing is, despite all of the hard work, very few get to display the kind of chests that make jaws drop.   Building perfect-pecs is not as easy as lying on a bench and mindlessly pressing humongous...

Before you start losing weight, it’s important to decide on how you’re going to go about doing so. First of all, you should decide on how many pounds of weight you want to lose and how much time it’ll take. If you want to make sure most of the weight lost is body fat, you shouldn’t burn more than two to three pounds of body weight per week. This is because losing too much weight in a too short a period of time can result in losing muscle mass, weakening your immune system and causing constant tiredness. After you decide upon the...

Sorry to burst the bubble: the idea that burning 3,500 calories will burn a pound of fat may be true on paper, but it’s not always true in reality. In the best of all possible worlds, when you cut 3,500 calories from your diet, you should lose a pound of body fat, but that’s not always the case.  There’s a lot more to dropping bodyfat than just the numbers. In fact, if we were to stubbornly remain steadfast to the mathematical model for bodyfat management, then dieting for a bodybuilding contest would be little more than an exercise in pushing...

Sometimes “good” isn’t quite good enough. “Good” grades don’t get you into an Ivy League school. Making a merely “good” movie doesn’t get you a Best Picture statuette. Bodybuilding fans know that “good” doesn’t even get you near a Mr. Olympia pose down. Knowing that, why would you settle for a good meal plan when you can have a terrific one with just a few tweaks? To eat like a true bodybuilder and optimise your results in the gym, you need to pay attention to the specifics, like when to eat slow-burning carbs and when to rely on the fast-burning variety, and...

Disregarding your lifestyle – whether you are a party animal, chronic worker or a workout addict, you’ve probably heard by now just how important it was to stretch. And as truths go, this one is highly spot on. Stretching increases the blood flow in your muscles and helps your joints to exploit their full range of motion. It also improves your posture and enhances your athletic performance at reduced risk of pain and injury. However, knowing the importance of stretching is not sufficient to endeavour into practising yoga or starting a flexibility routine. In order to make your exercises efficient,... Read more →

Now, that might sound shocking coming from a woman bodybuilder with 16% body fat; from a woman that recommends lots of exercise, at least 5 hours per week. So if this all seems incongruent, I guess I should qualify the statement above. I guess I should have probably said... Ah well watch out the below vidd to find out: Read more →

Ask the average person about her personal goals, and all too often, there’s one common thread: losing weight. While the reasons are often superficial (after all, who doesn’t want to look good in their swimsuit or summer attire?), the reality is that the benefits of losing weight go far beyond what’s reflected in the mirror — and fat-burning foods can help you get there. Chowing down on fat-burning foods can help you drop pounds and potentially reverse diabetes. It also reduces your risk of obesity, which has been linked to a higher risk of cancers. Introducing more fat-burning foods can also boost energy levels and... Read more →

Here's what you need to know... Contrary to some naysayers, your calves have significant growth potential and should be able to grow as big as your arms or your neck by training them in line with their functional anatomy. The first step to bigger calves is prioritizing them by working them first. Incorporate calf jumps to stimulate the calves with a heavy compound lift that has a natural movement pattern. Here are the reasons your calves don't quite get mistaken for your quads. 1 – Genetics Many people argue that calf size is almost completely genetically determined. There's some truth... Read more →

People get emotionally attached to certain physical practices. Their commitment and beliefs about them will turn something that was once benign into a ritual. The result? Repeatedly doing ineffective stuff, or worse, doing more of the exact thing that's making them injured. If you find yourself aimlessly pounding through ego sessions with no major benefits, it's time to step back and take a closer look at your practice. Here are the six things that you (or someone you know) are emotionally attached to. 1 – Burpees The burpee originated in the 1940s for use in physical fitness tests in the... Read more →

Low reps or high reps? Free weights or machine? Dieting or Clean Eating? All of these questions pale in comparison to how often I’m asked whether it’s time to start cutting fat or bulking by athletes I consult. It’s time such a common question is answered once and for all so you can decide the option best suited for you. The macros calculators can be a great place to start, but tools like this are useless until you decide whether your current destination is Shredzville or Gainzville.
