Change Maker: Turn Your Passion For Health and Fitness Into a Powerful Purpose and a Wildly Successful Career That’s the title of a brand new book from the creator of Precision Nutrition, Dr. John Berardi. In the new book, Dr. Berardi will help you make sense of

Really, they’re just thick workout clothes that don’t breathe well. Think of them

Continue reading →Foam rollers and other tools are great, but don’t you sometimes miss the ability of a good old lacrosse ball to provide pressure at a pinpoint location? They’re so versatile. But… they can also be messy, rolling around rather than staying in place. And sometimes they’re too
Continue reading →It takes a special type of endurance athlete to be concerned about the quality of the degreaser and chain lube they use. But I think most endurance athletes do take an interest in nature, supporting our planet, and being eco-friendly. If that’s you, you might be interested

Continue reading →I’m skeptical of all diet pills. And I’m really skeptical of anything that so much as mentions acai berry or raspberry ketones. So when I first heard of Natrol AcaiBerry Diet, you better believe I had a good chuckle! Then, just before writing them off permanently, I

Continue reading →I hate stupid fad fitness products sold on infomercials, but I love innovative equipment you can actually use. I also love homemade solutions to expensive equipment! That’s how I found these Waxman SuperSliders furniture sliders…
Continue reading →Ever wonder about the best diet ideas? Yeah, we all do. There are very few endurance athletes out there that aren’t infatuated with nutrition and all the choices over proper food and drink intake. Here is the book for you…

There are a few good options out there that don’t require you to pay a premium price for a tiny tube, and Queen Helene’s Cocoa Butter Creme is one that I love. Considering that the point of chamois cream is to prevent chafing, I don’t see a good reason to buy something special. Lots of skincare products provide the same function but cost 50-90% less!

They’re not bad, but they’re not the healthiest choices.) Tested: Kashi GO LEAN Crunchy Bar After eating numerous boxes of Kashi

This is entirely different than any other water bottle I’ve reviewed! There are some other collapsible bottles

Continue reading →Previously, I was never a huge fan of activity trackers. They simply weren’t good enough for athletes. Sure, they were high-tech devices.
