1. Every second of every day we are dying cell by cell. As we creep along the path of life we are dying a little bit with every step. Make the most of what you have and strive to better yourself both physically and mentally. Live on.
2. People need to stop being such sallies when it comes to their lower backs. I can’t bend down to tie my shoe today. I DL’ed for the first time in about 6 weeks. I am oh so sore. OH so sore. SORE, not injured. People need to understand that just because their lower back is sore does not mean they need to go to the freaking doctors and get loaded up on muscle relaxers and perc’s. Your lower back is a static muscle. It’s main job is to work constantly at low levels to hold us upright. You don’t have a herniation, you’re just very sore because you’re weak and out of shape. When you make your spinal erectors and accompanying musculature (i.e. “lower back”) do more than it’s used to, it will become sore. If you strengthen it, you will be sore less in your lower back. Fellas, stop doing your shoulder raises and do some back extensions, or better yet Good Mornings. Ladies, get off the bosu ball (It makes you look like a circus critter anyway. Every time I see someone on one of those things I want to grab a whip and a chair and start yelling “up Simba, UP!”) and start doing some back extensions, maybe some deadlifts (the right way…with heavy weight…maybe even get an ass eventually…just throwing it out there).
My 2 cents for the week.

I was strolling down the frozen foods section looking for something sweet and fatty (hey, I’m not going to lie to you) and I came upon a particular sugary frozen pastry that was strawberry “flavored”. The box claimed the pastry was made with “100% real fruit filling”.
What the hell does that mean? As opposed to fake fruit filling? Or, no just filling? I can only assume that in the hopes to make their food sound more palatable and appealing they decided to stamp that claim on the box.
“100% real fruit filling”. Not real fruit, fruit filling. Real fruit filling is just what it sounds. It’s a marginal amount of fruit mixed in with loads of sugar and preservatives. Does that sound healthy?

For the non-believers out there. I haven’t worked out in 2 weeks. Today was the first day. Actually it might even be more than 2 weeks. I don’t want to lose weight. My goal is to be cock diesel and strong as a bull (strong like bull!). I weighed 197 about 2 weeks ago. I weigh 185 right now.
I lost 12 lbs in 2 weeks. Wanna know how? I ate more frequently. Yup, that’s it. I didn’t eat the quantity of food I normally eat, however, I did eat smaller meals more often. And in reality I was probably getting around 2500 calories as opposed to my usual 3500 plus.
Eat good food more often. Lose weight. Simple.
