Today is Sunday and it's the beginning of week six of my off-season diet and training. Things have been going well, I am gaining strength and I believe muscle too. How much muscle? I'm not really sure but I can see my body changing every week and have put on 10 pounds since my last competition. I'Il admit I haven't been as vigilante with my nutrition as I should be.

Alcohol consumption would not be my liquid of choice while dieting and the draw backs will far outweigh any health benefits your red wine drinking friends may tell you.

Not only does alcohol stop the fat burning process it a... Continue reading ...

I think almost everyone has been to the point of no return, when reaching for A cookie turns into 2 cookies, then 3 cookies then before you know it the whole box is gone and all you can think about is wanting even more cookies. We then try to justify the multiple sweets we just ate but just because you had a cereal bar for breakfast doesn't cancel out the 8 cookies you just had. I get around 2 cheat meals a week and it's very difficult for me to contain myself when I am really wanting somethi... Continue reading ...
