  5. Good article about getting down to basics of strength training

    I think sometimes, often with good intentions, we all over-complicate things on occasion. This article really seems to be good about driving home the points of basic lifting and that you don't have...
  6. Re: For those nervous about starting at the gym.....

    You're welcome "tiffany".....sometimes it's just about getting out of one's comfort zone.....at least initially. Mine will be trying yoga.....I'm a little hesitant, but I know I will do it and at my...

    Re: Work out recovery

    "tbiggs".....I don't really focus so much on the cardio aspect as I only do cardio 1-2 times a week and do resistance training 5-6 times a week. But like "Sharon" stated, some carbs to go along with...

    Re: Weight Lifting vs Weight Loss

    Resistance training is key to strength of course, and also to help with that "skinny fat" issue that some people try to avoid. It's all a matter of personal choice and goals as far as fitnses and/or...
