If lifting is your lifestyle, chances are, you have received this question quite frequently.
People ask what your hobbies are and you respond with lifting; or if they know you well, they may flat out say, “I don’t know how you do it. Don’t you get tired of going to the gym everyday?” Read More
I was craving pizza but didn’t want to feel heavy and gross (and guilty) after eating one from delivery, so I decided to experiment and make one with a tortilla! Quiet a success I must say.
You only need 7 ingredients, which cost about $20 in total. And there is plenty left over to make several more too! Read More
I was diagnosed with clinical depression during my senior year of high school. Now, I realize that you may not believe in depression (clinical or another form). Here in the U.S., the most common solution is to take a pill to solve all your problems- I get it.
But let me tell you from my personal experience that clinical depression is real. Horribly real. Read More
“I’m fine.” We say it all the time- whether it’s to others or to ourselves. But here’s the problem with being fine. Nothing grows from it; nothing changes.
Being fine is being content- in a bad way. It’s settling. It’s accepting things the way they are, because you are too fearful or doubtful to even attempt something because you’re afraid you’re going to fail. Read More

Don’t be afraid to put on a little weight this season in order to build muscle. This involves loosing some definition and visibility of some of your muscles. Us girls are the most hesitant with bulking, but what you have to remember is it’s temporary. When you cut and shed off what you have gained (and maybe a little more) you will unveil a better built physique! (See progress pics at the bottom) Read More
Gym Limbo: Doing the same exercises and/or routine because you’re too scared, lazy, or narrow minded to learn and do other exercises.
The consequence: an imbalanced physique.
Have you been there? If you have it was most likely when you first started lifting. I know it was at least for me. Read More
CNN announced that 20 out of 25 of the largest U.S. fast food and casual restaurants earn an F when it comes to “their policies and practices regarding antibiotics use and transparency in their meat and poultry supply chains” (see chart below).
This is quite disturbing considering that these are restaurants/fast food chains that many of us Americans visit frequently. Read More
One of the things I dislike about winter (besides the cold) is that I can’t lay outside and tan, so therefore I become pale- fast. In the summer, being tan highlights your muscles and you just look and feel better. So instead of laying in the tanning bed this season, I use a self-tanner at home so I don’t look so washed out.
