    YOU DECIDE – AND MAKE IT OFFICIAL

    Most of us value our ability and freedom to make our own independent choices in life.

    We have all heard about the importance of getting a full night’s sleep, and how beneficial it is for our overall health. I don’t know anyone who doesn’t want to have a good night’s sleep, but it isn’t always that easy (and good luck trying to do it by counting sheep or meditating). I recently [...]

    Many physicians today, faced with the latest scientific literature and continued education classes, use the excuse of being just too busy to keep up, and are therefore stuck with the bias studies from big pharma doling out the information they want the docs to know.

    George DeJohn’s 4 Most Hated Exercises

    One of the quickest ways to attain any goal is to train properly for it. But do you know the proper way to train? Or do you just think you know that proper way? Perhaps you’re stuck in an “old-school football player” mentality about how to exercise. Do you wear a zip-up nylon suit to [...]

    Use a Full Body Cleanse For Overall Health Benefits

    So you’ve decided to get in shape and lose that abdominal fat. Good for you. Then you’ll need to do countless sets of 50 or 100-rep crunches and sit-ups, right? Wrong.

    Compound Exercises and Proper Eating for Weight Loss

    Weight loss can be approached from many different angles, but a few approaches will produce better results more quickly than the others. One of the better ones involves both proper weight training and eating habits. First understand that “weight training” in this sense does not mean hours of high-rep leg extensions and dumbbell curls.

    Keeping Up with the Fairer Sex (Sexually)

    A common thought is that women have low libidos while a man’s sex drive is on alert and ready to go as a marine waiting to deploy for war.  But low libido in men is a much more of a common problem than previously thought.  Gender stereotypes in this regard are beginning to disappear. In [...]
