    Does the tea do anything that smoking doesn't do I wonder. Looking at this list I am guessing the last 2 would probably be in that category.

    Following along, great job on cutting the weight off! On the lat raise honestly could drop to a 10# and up the reps.

    Thank you for the advice, I will not make that big of a calorie jump. I wasn’t real sure how big of a jump was needed to see a change. So small adjustment there! Got it. As far as my exercise...

    I've got some constructive criticism, but first I wanted to say good job on losing over 50 pounds!. I wanted to say that you want to make smaller jumps in calories, don't go from 1900-2000...

    Thats probably the reality of it. I would be that it might depend on the man and the state of his libido. if he's high libido type then maybe smashing all night would be better so he's not in a...

    That’s definitely been totally disproven at this point. Used to hear that a lot in high school as well. I remember my first meet, 2 buddies I lifted with (also doing it as their first meet) had...
