Well the answer is easy. Develop a conscious. Teach yourself nutrition is good and cheating is bad. I have developed extreme self control around my diet to the point where I am a diet jedi. Seriously. You have to be hard on yourself. Every time you ch...

This is the "abs of steel" tribe and I keep reading that having abs of steel is 50%, 60% maybe even 70% or 80% about diet. Really? Surely abs of steel is about good honest hard work and big focused high intensity exercise? A 6 pack might be about bodyfat...

Being a runner all my life, I finally wore out my knee and i can only run just twice a week now which really upsets me. My friends tell me to bike but I really dont like biking, running is all I know. Any suggestions??
Newest reply
I'd consult a doctor, ask them if physical therapy would help, if so then I would do it. You should do anything you have to, to keep you doing the things you love.
