Go to any commercial
gym and I bet you'll see most
guys doing biceps curls or bench
presses, and most gals doing cardio or working on their butts. A
lot of people spend the majority
of their time in the gym working
on their favorite muscle groups
or doing their favorite exercises.
Yeah nice body but what can you
do with it? Sure, you biceps-curlers might have big arms, and you
booty-blasters might have tight
buns, but eventually your positive body composition changes will come to a disappointing
halt. Moreover, exclusively or
semi-exclusively training just
one or two body parts can make
your
physique
unbalanced,
your body more prone to injury,
and your overall fitness a joke.
To be a good bodybuilder, a good CrossFitter, a good athlete, or even just a fit, healthy
person, you must be well-rounded. That
means sometimes you have to do movements that you suck at. That may be olympic lifts, rope climbs, handstand walk etc.
Every CrossFittter has a weakness. For me, it was the Olympic lifts.
For others, it might be handstand pushups or rowing. To be successful in the
gym, you must have the mentality to
overcome your weakness. When you
work on movements you don’t usually
do, you exert your muscles in new ways
and recruit different fibers you normally don’t use. This stimulates growth and
builds overall muscle in your entire body.
By constantly learning new and challenging physical skills, you force your
body to grow all over. Pick a new exercise and give it a go, dont wait any longer.

ospitals feed cancer patients sugar and high carbohydrate diets for a reason: they are abysmally ignorant
of the role of nutrition in health
and disease -hence their burgeoning growth and packed rooms.
Hospitals have actually invited
corporations like McDonald's to
move into their facilities to 'enhance' their patient's gustatory
experience, presumably to provide comfort and take the edge
off of the painful surgery, radiation and chemo treatments erroneously proffered to them as the
only reasonable 'standard of care.'
grain products annually like crackers, bread, pasta, cereal, refine carbohydrates are actually ‘hidden’ forms of
sugar. In fact, puffed rice causes your
blood to become sweeter (and presumably feeds more cancer cells sugar)
than white sugar, as it is higher on the
glycemic index. In other words we get
360lbs of sugar annually ( table sugar/
high frutose corn cyrup or grain carbs)
all ideal to promote the cancer cells.
What should you do? This is one reason why the ketogenice diet, a protein focused diet devoid of carbs both
in simple and comple form, has been
found so useful in the most aggressive of cancers: including brain cancer.
But the times are changing,
with new research requiring
these medical institutions to reform their dietary strategies.
Why do we use so much then?
Because we become addictive to it. Sugar triggers our brain cells in such a way
to want more and more. The down side
of this are empty calories, they have no
nutritional value. Within minut \
