In my early twenties I went out with a guy who was really judgmental.

The thing is, the outcomes were perhaps just as detrimental. Because in hindsight, I became more …
Fat Loss Discipline: Your most important training session this week.
Today was a fairly average training day for me. I thought I felt like training. I should have been fresh after rest day Sunday.

Are your daily eating triggers working to your best fat blasting advantage?
As I started to write this post I immediately hit a block… generally writing is something that comes fairly freely to me. I find it enjoyable and satisfying. Today it appears I’m going to have to work a little harder to achieve that sense of accomplishment! Perhaps a block or desire to procrastinate is a trigger you can relate to? …
EATING PLANT BASED IS SO MUCH EASIER THAN I EXPECTED!
