Fuck the tea party. Idiots.

It is very, very difficult to train BJJ with any degree of seriousness if you're also trying to make good progress on the squat.

Dude, I hope we run into each other and share a beer and a laugh next month. But in all seriousness, the top 10 in the world comment was bogus. I'm sure you're proud of her (I would be if my wife...

Small world, I'll be at that tournament. I'm not competing but will be hanging out with some friends who are. Maybe we'll run into each other.

I hate to break it to you Brother, cuz you seem like a nice guy. But I would refrain from telling people your wife is top 10 in the world in BJJ. Taking silver at the Pan Am's in the blue belt...

I highly recommend Krakauer's book "Where Men Win Glory" which covers Tillman's story as well. Not sure if it's related to the movie at all.

Actually, fuck it. I call bullshit on your last statement.

On a side note, is your wife really top 10 in both oly lifting and BJJ? Do you mind if I ask what her name is? I'm not trying to be a smart ass but that is quite an accomplishment. I've been...

Brother,

You were a bodybuilder and you're married to a bodybuilder? I never would have guessed...

Seriously, though. Considering my scenario (two identical people, identical training,...

It's all a bunch of unsubstantiated hype, IMO. There may be some small theoretical advantage to eating in that manner, but total caloric intake is waaaay more important.

I agree with you Brother. Experience is important. As best as I can tell, the carb cutoff thing is just a trick so that you'll consume fewer calories. It works, but not for the reasons some people...

Plenty of research to disprove this myth, but you already know that.

You believe fish oil cured you of your hamstring tendonitis?

Not to go off topic, but I find this sentence very amusing.

It never ceases to amaze me that people bother responding to this fool.

Also, I know nothing about the coffee business (I buy my morning cup at the gas station) but I will say this, based on my experience... Success at this will depend far less on the actual taste of...

This is good advice. I started a small manufacturing business when I was 24 and it's still going strong, 12 years later. I started in a garage and slowly grew from there.

General tips:

Don't...

He's specifically interested in the starting and ending weights during the novice progression. How far everyone gets before they need to switch to intermediate programming.

As always, good advice.
