My Bias IN NUTRITION: Mobile Control
In my last post I said that when it came to nutrition stating one’s bias was a token of intellectual honesty I respected. I realized that I have never stated my bias in this blog. I have said it a thousand times when asked by people on what is my approach to nutrition, or when doing food presentations. But I have never given it a good and thorough characterization. Here’s how we fix that. A caveat: this will always be a work in progress. My purpose in life is to always keep learning. And learning will definitely make me question my own assumptions and change my point of view. This means you are just reading version 1.0 of my bias.

And fatigue is really not that cool. The video today presents one of the many ways to look at and understand fatigue. This video is excellent for my endurance athletes out there. Watch it and let me know what you think!
Handstands and balance in life
What you practice in your training, should have more transfer to life than good looks and bragging rights.
Don't be lazy, have higher standards
I bet you are thinking I mean you should go out workout more and workout harder. Memories of all those times you said you would wake up and work out and you didn’t will run through your head. You might remember those workouts during which you were tired and you did not push as hard as you feel you should have, But nope, that is not what I mean. That is just your guilt. Your consistency on a given program is often not a laziness problem as much as an organizational problem. How hard you can push on a given workout is very seldom a willpower problem, as it is a self-regulation problem. I am not here to guilt trip you. Let me tell you what I DO mean.
