That was Al Wilson. Now, "Let's Stay Together", on the other hand...

Propaganda does generally work better that way.

The short answer is that both Russian and Ukrainian have more vowels in their respective Cyrillic alphabets than we have in ours, preventing simple,...

You're mingling steps 2 and 3 together, as well as steps 4 and 5. Never stop doing the five-step setup by the numbers every single time you set up...

To be fair, Matt, I don't see many people settling for it, honestly. It seems to me that the vast majority of folks here who are pleased with...

I have no idea where the cracking was occurring, honestly. It felt like the sort of "joint slightly out of place" of a knuckle before it's popped. ...

You've asked for a "programming" answer to getting stronger - programming, properly understood, includes not only stress management...

TRT is indicated more based off of symptoms than lab numbers. It is pretty normal for testosterone levels to decline as you age, but those numbers...

It's not a matter of bulking up to look big in clothes - in your situation, it's a matter of adding more muscle in order to lift more weight. This...

Ah, yes - Stronglifts 5x5, or as I call it, the Belgian Feeder Program... (I, too started with that, but I got better. The one good thing about it...

When I first started training, it was at the local YMCA. Between having been raised by parental figures, the Boy Scouts, and the Marine Corps to...

Hi, James - I don't have specific experience with TM, but as far as training while traveling, I can chime in. There are a lot of disruptions...

Analytically speaking, if it's a matter of neuromuscular efficiency, there is no action to take, since you already got the wrong parents...but you...

While I have great admiration for much of what I know about Finnish culture and history (the whole concept of sisu, Simo Häyhä and the general...

That degree of backoff certainly does sound frustrating. You're not in some strange situation where saying "yes" to imaging means you can't say "no"...

Bob, something is amiss with that link - it looks like the URL and the title are transposed, so it appears as ...

Oh, I do - and I've definitely been called worse things by closer people, that's for sure.
