Not everything.But I think I had 7 days without weights in Europe, and 17 days without heavy weights.And boy, oh boy, am I feeling extra muscle soreness this week because of it. But I've also set a few interesting personal bests.Time away from regular training helps, but I'd never spend just

Truth About Weight Loss

It makes me so sad to hear from men and women around the world that are still doing hours and hours of cardio exercise for weight loss. "I'm not losing inches," they cry. "And my knees, back, and hips hurt from doing the same BORING thing over and over again." I feel your pain. I once ran too much. It left me skinny fat. It was only when I gave that up � in

True story of Bally the Dog

Oh dear, another Bally the Dog misadventure. There we were on our regular afternoon dog walk through the city cemetery, underneath the mature Canadian maple trees, all lush and green from a mid-summer's rainstorm. And then he had to go and spoil the mood�by pooping. Frantically I searched my pockets. Where were those bags? They must have fallen out on our walk�uh oh.

Classic Spaced Out Garage Workout

Let's start with diet. I'm pushing for as many CASS-Free days as possible as I warm-up for my personal diet transformation in the 24th TT Contest.Tomorrow, Thursday, will be CASS-Free. I don't have any training planned, so I'll avoid caffeine.Tuesday was a caffeinated day (Zevia cola + a small Green Tea) before a great upper body workout. That was a bit too much caffeine for ol' CB's low

Dreaming and Pressing

True story. I have strange, vivid, and entertaining dreams every night. I always have, from the childhood right up to last night. They are as extensive and memorable as any Hollywood blockbuster you could find.Last night`s dream started with a keg party that I was hosting with an old high school friend that I haven`t heard from in a while. That morphed into me being momentarily caught on

Off Day Fitness QnA

Off day today. Just a long walk through the city cemetery with ol' Bally the Dog. There's a particular road lined by mature maple trees that makes for a picturesque archway to walk under each morning. I love it. The cemetery is so green (must have some good fertilizer, dark humor LOL). After the walk he ate and I did a 20-minute series of Missi Holt-inspired yoga stretches. I feel great, and

Arms Abs and Souvenirs

Uh-oh. It's been 48 hours since the 5x5 squats. The soreness seems to have peaked overnight, but I'm still stiff. Low back muscles (spinal erectors) are also a little sore. That means I need to push my deadlift workout back a day to Saturday...or maybe even Sunday when the gym will be completely dead. We'll see. I have to get a full 3-week cycle in before I head out on my next trip to

Dropping dead from jogging

Sad news. Just yesterday I read about a prominent Toronto lawyer and philanthropist that died of a heart attack while out jogging. He was 75 years old. That's too young these days. Even worse, last month the big news from Britain was the death of an otherwise-healthy 31-year old man named Miles Frost who died while out for a jog. Why are people dropping dead from

Benching in my Sleep

Tough sleep last night. Couldn't make it past 2am since I'm still on Europe time. Mind you, I couldn't keep my eyes open past 7:15pm last night, so I did get a decent nights sleep. Still, I needed some caffeine pre-workout, and I've had some Paleo Protein with stevia. Tomorrow should be CASS-Free.(CASS = Caffeine, alcohol, sweetener, soda)Today's Workout was good times. I was a little too

1 weird fat loss tip from Europe

You've probably heard "French women don't get fat." And if you've ever been to Europe it seems like all they do is eat chocolate, drink wine, party all night...and somehow stay slim. Well, I just spent 17 days across the pond visiting Russia, Lithuania, Turkey, and England and I have to say, there are definitely more slim folks on the streets compared to my beloved home bases of
