    Thanks! I would keep your diet the same. I like to change one variable at a time. It's easier to find out what works and what doesn't when you do things that way.

    Hey, glad things seems to be going well! Your fatigue will improve. Lifting can be very taxing even cardiovascularly. Keep doing cardio and keep hammering away at the resistance exercises and you'll only get better. Your question really has no concrete answer. I think most people in their...

    Sorry for my absence. I've been super busy with work and projects and didn't want to begin replying to things if it were to only leave a half assed reply. Anyways, I'm snowed in and taking a break from creating blog content. You need a food scale. Let me explain. Fitday.com can't weigh and...

    I definitely got a little carried away when looking for a desk. I have had a philosphy on clothing and furniture that spending a little more for quality actually works well in the long run if it'll last for decades. If I came across as budgeting 1000s for a desk that wasn't my intention. $150 or...

    Talked to my brothr and he is going to make me a desk similar to one in the list I provided. It'll be a bit smaller because I don't have a huge space for it and it won't have the ipad holder or the same texture, but he said $75 for the wood and 20-25 hours tops in labor. I'd rather pay him...

    I've been shopping for a desk. I don't want some piece of crap particle board, but also don't have the means to spend 1-2k on a desk like the ones I've found here, http://manofmany.com/home/25-best-desks-home-office. I do strongly feel that work environment is so important and would be more...

    I run a service business thats success has been highly dictated through customer retention. I was cleaning my apartment tonight and I found some old papers from 2013…. I found two things. One was a list of hand written appointments, the other was a SNAP (supplemental nutrition assistance...

    What was YOUR biggest business/life lesson in 2015?

    You want to get something done? You need to do it. The only person you can rely on 24/7/365 is yourself. However, you need other people to create success. Whether it is customers, partnerships, or mentorships. Don't be afraid to ask for help, listen to advice even if you don't take it, and form...

    Exercise selection if you are talking about switching barbell curls to preacher curls, or bench press to incline db press doesn't matter much. The importance is just doing them and getting the most out of each movement. I'd also suggest not switching your lifting routine when it comes time to...

    Glad you found something. Just curious, when you signed up for the site and tracked your food, did you use a food scale to weigh everything for accuracy? Second, I'm unfamiliar with the slow carb diet, but if your drastically reduced your carb intake the majority of those 13lbs is water...

    Everything boils down to organization and the carryover it has to everything else. It's what I struggle with and what I am getting better at day by day, year by year. It's always a battle of two steps forward, one step back, but it is still a winning battle because if I look over the past year...

    Hey Longinus I'm familiar with Wendler's 5/3/1 program. What accessory lifts are you adding to the compound exercises? Strength and muscle size are two separate beasts although the stronger you get, typically the larger your muscles will become. There is a reason why bodybuilders and power...

    I sometimes feel lost and usually what I'll do is jot down my life, some goals, and ask myself questions to see if I am on the right path. I did this yesterday when I was getting down on myself for being 25 and feeling like I'm behind the game.... This is from my iphones notepad, (another way...
