You Are What You Eat!!
Have you ever heard of the saying “You are what you eat”!! Well… it is kinda true! Of course… you won’t literally turn into the foods you are eating.. but the nutrients in the foods you eat are what your body used to rebuild itself!! I always like to use the “Race Car’ analogy!!

Your body uses the nutrients in the foods you eat to rebuild the cells in your body! If you are eating unhealthy…

Why your “Gainz” are Fading Away??
It’s funny people always seem to ask me the same questions.. which I am always happy to answer!! One of the most frequent question I get is, “Why did my results (or Gainz) stop??… I am still doing the same workout you gave me??” Okay… the last part of his statement is the whole problem!! “I am still doing the workout you gave me”. Stop doing the same thing over & over Let’s look at it in running terms. If you ran 1 mile every day… you would start feeling pretty good just after the first few days.
