Cardio Before or After Weights? Training Q&A – BuiltLean
Share ! In fitness circles, the concept of intermittent fasting (IF) is catching like wildfire, and it’s no surprise as to why. There is some intriguing new published research showing that IF may offer a host of health and body composition benefits. Additionally, a small but growing group of IF experimenters are swearing by these relatively new fat-loss techniques, techniques that include skipping meals and sometimes going entire days without eating!I know, I know…the idea of fasting for a few extra hours every day seems to fly in the face of conventional nutrition wisdom, and many of you probably think that going entire days without eating is sheer lunacy–I get it.

With a taste that is similar to regular pork but more intense and a texture that is richer, wild boar is something that all meat lovers should try at least once./p

How to Build Muscle If Your Joints Hurt
When I was first training back in the late 80's I assumed that to build bigger muscles I would have to constantly lift heavier and heavier weights. To a certain extent that is true, but there are ways to make a lighter weight "work" your muscles much harder than normal. The guy with the most impressive chest I have ever seen in person never benched more than 205 pounds. He told me that anything heavier "made his joints hurt"…so he used lighter weight to get the job done. This past summer I got stronger than ever at chin ups and shoulder pressing, but my elbows began to hurt and I decided to mix in a 3-4 month period of light lifting to give my joints a much-needed break. I'll outline what I'm doing.

Announcement: Book Launch Update
pI just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone again for your tremendous support during the 21-Day book launch, and let you know how it all panned out./p
pThe book release was a huge success. It didn#8217;t make the NYT list (yet) but not for lack of trying. An industry insider shared with me that apparently the Times is down-playing Amazon sales as a component of their formula. We certainly sold enough in all channels to make the list. In fact the first printing sold out to booksellers (not necessarily end buyers) in under two weeks. C#8217;est la vie. We#8217;ll get #8216;em next time. With your help, though, the book made it to #3 on Amazon.com and spent a solid two weeks in the overall top 100 books.

Home Fitness Routines: Supplemental Assistance
Stay-at-home parents, people without active gym memberships, and anyone squeezed for extra time can really take advantage of home fitness routines in order to stay active and healthy. Though most houses and apartments aren’t outfitted with all of the fitness equipment commonly available at local gyms, there are a number of exercises you can do to keep yourself in shape without all the pricey extras. Even though many exercises can be performed and mastered without the use of fitness equipment, an avid home exerciser will still need a few supplemental aids to help with his or her routine. Below, we’ll go over a few pieces of fitness equipment one should keep at home for those small periods when exercise is possible between work, meals, school, and sleep.
Jump Rope
If you don’t have a treadmill, stationary bike, or elliptical machine at home, it can be hard to keep up with your personal […]

Vitamins, Good or Bad
While I have nothing against pharmaceutical companies like the Canadian Online Pharmacy, after all – the medical revolution has helped save millions of lives. I do think there is something very good to be said about taking care of yourself with walking, exercise, eating healthily – and yes, even vitamins. As they say, prevention is the best form of treatment.
That being said, there tend to be two strands of thought on the whole vitamin good or bad for you thing. There are the people who love them, and then some pharmaceutical companies who seem to be against them.
A recent study done that claimed to have evidence against vitamins was interesting for it’s complete lack of a control group, and as I understand in science is known as the least dependable of all the kinds of studies to be done on vitamins. In fact, it seems logical that taking vitamins that your […]
