April 30, 2012 By 88 Comments
Rocky Balboa learned a tough lesson in Rocky III: sometimes destruction is needed for future growth. Nobody wants to go through the devastation, so why not always just grow? If we limit that destruction to the detritus, then the new room created by cleaning out the garbage lets us build back … [Read more...]
BioJacked #4: Yes That Mark Bell
April 28, 2012 By 4 Comments
We invited Mark "Smelly" Bell (yes, that Mark Bell) to the studio to shoot the proverbial shit, and he surprised us by getting Jesse Burdick to tag along.

Women’s Self-Image: Photoshop Be Damned
March 21, 2012 By 23 Comments
I’m an avid supporter of women’s health initiatives. It makes sense: many of my dearest friends, the people I love and adore are women and I want them to enjoy happiness, vivacity and a long active life (that’s one reason I’m trying to kill running). Some may consider this selfish motivation, but if … [Read more...]
Intermittent Fasting: Part 2, The Fight’s Over
March 16, 2012 By 111 Comments
