Tis the Season to be Anabolic

As your most favoritist and most respected health professional (RIGHT?!?!) I’m supposed to guilt you into not enjoying the holiday season. I’m supposed to tell you to not eat a bazilllion calories over the next month and a half. I can’t do that. It sounds too much like Catholicism. Not to mention, *I* will be eating a bazillion calories over the next month and a half, so why shouldn’t you?

KISS: Keep It Simple Stupid

I was just thinking last night how simple this is. Everyone likes to make it so much more complicated than it really is. “Eat this, not that”; “4 sets of 5 are ‘better’ than 3 sets of 10″; “Steady state cardio sucks, all you need is HIIT”; “Blondes are better than brunettes”.

That last one is ENTIRELY false. Well, in terms of attraction that is. Well, in terms of the wimenz that is.

My Response to the Twinkie Diet (kind of)

I actually had a quick post I was going to toss up here in reply to the hate that this guy is getting over his Twinkie diet experiment, but the more I got to typing, the more I wanted to say, the more I realized this would end up being a 3,000 word post. Then I remembered, it’s already been done for me!

100th Post: A Hodge Podge of Evryfing!

Ho-kay! Super duper, team! Way to go! Can you believe it’s been 100 posts already?! Actually, I’m sure the big time bloggers average close to 100 posts every 2 months. Me? Close to 2 years. Muahahahaha!

In true fashion of this website, I’m going to touch on something from each of the categories I post about. Let’s sit back, put your hand down your pants (if you’d like), and bask in my self-perceived gloriousness. Read More→

The Real Reason Carbohydrates Make You Fat

I just got done eating some amazingly delicious sushi rice and decided to take a gander at the nutrition label for S’s and G’s (shits and giggles). I was pretty surprised at what I saw, but I definitely wasn’t mad about it. Just a few short months ago, I, like many many other people on this planet (thanks to TONS of misinformation perpetuated in mainstream media), was a carbophobe. I was fairly certain that any gram of excess carbohydrate would instantly turn into stored subcutaneous fat. That was so silly of me.

Training Update

Why, hello again! Long time no communication, eh? Sorry about it. Moving on….I’m pretty lazy (as has been noted several times), and this is me writing a cop-out post about my progress as of late…

The Most Anabolic Things in Life

I woke up around 3am this morning, slipping in and out of sleep paralysis, and for some reason, I could NOT get this post out of my head. Not real sure what it was. At first I was just thinking about food and meal timing. Then it turned into lifts and exercises. Lastly, I started thinking about daily activities, like doing karate in your basement with a Samurai sword, that are also highly psychologically anabolic (read: make you feel badass).

So, without further ado, here’s my list…

Intermittent Fasting Methods

Not gonna lie, kids. I’m not really in the mood for this. Well, I’m not really in the mood for anything but sitting here and watching “Rome”. But, I’m hoping as I get writing it will help cheer me up a little. So, shall we get started?

4th of July Weekend Training Sessions

Aye-yo!!!

I will be home (again) over the 4th of July weekend and would love to help the wonderful people of the Ladysmith/Holcombe/Cornell area (and beyond). My thoughts are 3 days of training opportunities. This is what I’d like to do…

The Anti-Guru

If you follow me on Twitter or Facebook, you know that I say a lot of “ridiculous” sh*t, especially when it comes to nutrition. Things like, “if my fatloss stalls for a week, I increase my calories, not decrease them.” Or, “I ate a family size package of brats over the weekend and lost a pound.” When it comes to training, people don’t understand why I would EVER do 13 sets of 8 reps on just 1 lift. Why is it that I do the “crazy” sh*t I do?
