I don’t care how many calories you burned

You may think I sound like a jerk, but how many calories you burned during a workout really doesn’t interest me at all. And here’s why: If you want to create a strong, healthy body or even leaner body you will never get there by trying to burn calories with exercise. Here are a few…

Assumptions made about fit people

I am adamantly against making assumptions about people. Not to say that I never do it, I am human after all, but I try to check myself when I do. You know that there are plenty of assumptions in society made about overweight people — they’re lazy, they don’t care abut themselves, they have health…
