Rest as needed between sets. If sets require interruption at the chosen weight, or range of motion fails, make as minor an adjustment as needed and complete the next uninterrupted and at full-range. When the scheme is listed as “3 x 5″, it always refers to “Sets” x “Reps”. Reminder: Sound position always governs weight.

In the last few years, bone broth has become a grocery store staple. While you could always find beef broth or stock in the soup aisle of your grocery store, it wasn’t until recently that you could find bone broth being sold as well, let alone being served like a latté at the coffee counter. We have our wellness-minded, Paleo-eating friends to thank for reviving our love and admiration for this long-cooked homemade stock. Make no bones about it, bone broth is essentially a deeper, richer beef stock made by simmering collagen-rich beef bones until you end up with a rich, nutritious, and deeply savory broth.

It’s the kind of thing that’s perfect for sipping from a mug on a cold day, or for dressing up and turning into a hearty soup for dinner. Want to try making it yourself? Let’s do it!

The idea of pooping naked is surprisingly divisive, though, with forums all over the internet full of comments about the practice. Apparently, it’s a big deal and a real relationship problem for some people. Men tend to […]

Do you remember your first bite of linguine with white wine clam sauce, lobster bisque with sherry, or savory chicken Marsala? Cooking with white wine brings balance, fruit, and acidity to so many of our favorite recipes. Once you move past grocery store “cooking wine” (and I strongly advise you to do so!) and introduce even moderately priced white wine into the equation (leave that $40 Chardonnay in the wine fridge), your possibilities and cooking style expand exponentially.

Here are five white wines that are each wonderful for cooking in their own way.

Last year my family relocated from Atlanta, Georgia, to Boise, Idaho. Idaho, of course, is the potato capital of the western United States, growing one-third of the nation’s Russet potatoes. Naturally, they take their french fries very seriously. Order fries at any restaurant or drive-thru and they’ll ask you the following question: “Fry sauce?” This pink-hued sauce falls somewhere between commonplace condiment and cult food obsession with every chef and local claiming to have a favorite, secret recipe.

For those unfamiliar with fry sauce, this condiment is traditionally a combination of ketchup and mayonnaise flavored with everything from black pepper to garlic to horseradish. The resulting sauce is always rich and creamy with tons of tang and a back bite of spicy, peppery goodness. Basically, it’s the perfect dip for salty, freshly fried potatoes. Here’s how to make it at home if you never make it to Idaho.
