Sidney Hockey? Are Sidney Crosby and Hockey One in The Same?

Sidney Crosby or is it Sidney hockey? Unless you have been living under a rock the last few years, you have surely heard of Sidney Crosby. He is one of the brightest stars of hockey and besides Alex Ovechkin, he is the face of the NHL now.

Love him or hate him, I'm sure you would love to have him on your team! The guy has amazing skills and continues to get better every year. Not only is he a great hockey player, apparently he can play baseball too. Here is the latest on Sidney Hockey's

Fast Ways to Lose Weight: Warning, This May Piss You Off!

Everybody is looking for fast ways to lose weight, but almost everyone out there fails. How often do you hear of someone trying a new diet or starting a new exercise routine? Almost daily, right? The sad part about this is that the only thing fast about most peoples efforts is how fast they fail. The average person doesn't stick to their diet plan for long and will most likely see little results.

Why is it so hard to lose weight and get in shape for so many people? Why do people spend so

Build Muscle Quickly- The Natural Athlete's Way To Adding Muscle Mass

It's not even a question about whether we want to build muscle quickly or not. Of course we want to, we want everything quick. Given the choice, why would we ever want something to take longer than it needs to? With as much effort as it takes to build muscle and lose fat, the sooner we see results, the better.

If you look at the average person though, they build muscle either very slowly, or not at all. The average gym may be one of the most inefficient and non-productive places on the

You Can't Out Exercise A Bad Diet

No matter what type of diet or what type of exercises that you are doing, losing weight all comes down to creating a caloric deficit. To do this you can decrease your calories by eating less or exercising more. Between the two, decreasing your calories through diet is by far the best way to cause a calorie deficit. In reality, you just can't out exercise a bad diet.

The problem that most people have is that they grossly overestimate the amount of calories that they burn through exercising.

Here's One of My Favorite High Protein Recipes

On the days that I am not fasting, I still try and eat fairly well. This is a switch from just a few months ago. I think losing fat and starting to see some real results has inspired me to eat better all the time. I usually don't eat after dinner, but when I do, I try and keep it pretty healthy without any empty calories. A few years ago, we bought one of those Vitamix blenders at the home show in Pittsburgh. Me and my wife are suckers for whatever new gadgets come out and usually buy something

Intermittent Fasting Makes Las Vegas Funner?

I just got back from a little four day trip with my oldest son to Las Vegas. He will be graduating college in May from Penn State and we went out to spend some time together just me and him. We had a great time and as I usually do on vacation, I ate and drank whatever I wanted. I didn't overindulge, but I didn't hold back either.

Here's a shot from outside of the Hard Rock Cafe on the last night that we were in Vegas, what a cool place! If you like music, you should check it out.

My Legs Are Killing Me!

Well if you see me walking like a penguin, it's because my legs are killing me! I have been following Craig Ballantyne's turbulence training for the last eight weeks and have had some incredible results with it. I have been doing strictly bodyweight exercises, and concentrated on losing fat instead of gaining size or getting stronger. It has been a nice break from pounding the weights and I feel better than ever. At 41, I don't feel the need to squat 500 lbs anymore, and I think my knees will
