    We'll said Bertram! It's too bad more people don't look at the larger picture, take responsibility and put in the necessary effort rather than pursue shiny easy answers like silver bullet supplements and easy answers that avoid putting in self work. If only people spent as much time working...

    Filling the GAP Ok, I promised so I'll act on it. Dieriba asked about speeding up weight loss which is MOSTLY about eating. It's covered above in that reply so back to exercise. I advocate strength training according to your super-compensation curve. I explain that and how to find yours...

    First Congratulations Alex!!!:bicep: I could say the same thing, though I've never been under the belief it was anyone's fault or choice but my own to take charge of my health and fitness. Nothing speaks like results, my advice here is solid, well researched and has about 37 years of personal...

    First TAKE RESPONSIBILITY!!!! Remember that 96-99% of the population has NO metabolic disorder to use as an excuse. And overeating too much food is a CHOICE with rare exception. Right now I'm doing "intermittent fasting" where I allow myself to eat as much mostly normal healthy food as I want...

    Start by doing everything YOU can which is a lot. To be clear, anything that help you live a better life is worth pursuing, it's just that most of those things take work and come from you and the evidence of that is exhaustive. Whatever you do eliminate all your own excuses and take it as...

    Start by doing everything YOU can which is a lot. Whatever you do eliminate all your own excuses and take it as far as you can before succumbing to surrendering your own responsibility for any "weaknesses" to causes outside your control. Also be weary of ANY list of symptoms that ( from...

    Is paying for brand name rights a stupid idea?

    IDEA 
    It depends. In some cases, it's worth its weight in Anti-matter. In others, a waste of money. If you don't have enough cash without taking out a loan, I'd say F*ck NO. Spend $5895 less domain registration and trademark fees of your time brainstorming an equally effective name. If everything...

    I agree with almost everything you say. As a guy who's lost and regained 25 ish pounds two or 3 times in my life and lost and regained a 6 pack the same number of times, it's taken disciplined eating MOST DAYS and exercising 5 or 6 days a week for 3 to 6 months to get back to a six-pack EVERY...

    I had that book and well, it was really out of date wrt modern training ( unless he's updated it over the years ), but the exercise variations are amazing and copious. Lots of great information as long as it's been updated. Understand that Arnie, and ALL bodybuilding champions are genetic...

    With all due respect Chris...I disagree. I've looked at all the most recent meta-analyses of High carb vs high protein diets I could find online and their effect on weight loss. As I argued with another ( maybe no longer ) friend, there is no difference between high carb diets vs high protein...

    IFF I could find/have my workout book I've never tracked it for anyone but myself and now I use Google keep and just write over lower reps as they go up.

    You should ONE SET using isolation exercises. YES, I said ONE SET per muscle using isolation exercises. Test it, and see for yourself:-)- Next time, why one set, and next after that...why use currently unfashionable isolation exercises instead of the cyclically and currently hip compound...

    Interesting stuff Chris it is mostly common sense and personal responsibility that these are the traits successful people have, but both of them are too much like work for most people to want to stick to. They crave the easy and miraculous silver bullet, which doesn't exist, and so stay on the...

    Thanks Chris, great video!! New Years resolutions are non-sense in that there is no reason to wait or restrict goal setting to an "social convention" doing so indicates a lack of commitment to ANY goal, TODAY is the best time to set &/or act on your goals. I agree with almost everything he...

    LOL brilliant irony Thank you Walter, I really appreciate that info. Walter. I only mention Jungle Scout because it's the only thing I'm aware of that does what it does ( sourcing is new to me ), and while I think it's too expensive also, my mentor uses it and pays for my use, so the cash...
