They say that professional wrestling isn’t so much about in ring ability and big moves, as it is the ability to sell a character, and tell a story. In these days however, it’s not so much about selling the story, as selling a look.  Charisma has gone the way of the dinosaurs, cast aside for a series of muscle bound clones that, if you put a mask on them, would be as indistinguishable from one another as hamburgers from McDonald’s.  The big names of the past, who helped turn professional wrestling from a regionalized attraction in a worldwide phenomenon, are…

So I took a few weeks off, not because I needed it but because I wanted to re-evaluate my goals and why I started this a year ago. I needed to make sure I was staying the course and was being true to my original cause. I read over all my posts ( some I couldn’t believe a man with a degree as I have, wrote some sub-par crap, while others were way beyond my writing ability), and what you should know is I am a math guy, never was much for the english end of the world. Never got…

Why does Kimbo Slice get so much damn press?  At best he’s a preliminary fighter with the exception of actual potential.  Chuck Liddell and Tito Ortiz both were preliminary fighters who went on and became legitimate legends in the sport of MMA.  There are guys fighting on undercard shows all the time who one day might became a beast for their organization.  Kimbo Slice will not.  He is a sideshow and would fit in perfectly if Pride Fighting Championship was still running circus acts in Japan. I’m glad Roy Nelson beat him on The Ultimate Fighter and from here on…

If helping your body run as efficiently as possible is a priority to you, then read on. If not, go out, get yourself a cheeseburger and some fries and sit in front of the TV. In 1988, the Surgeon General determined that “eight of the top ten causes of disease are directly related to our diet.”  Among the top ten diseases are heart disease, coronary heart disease, cancer, strokes, chronic lung disease, diabetes, liver disease and atherosclerosis. Webster’s dictionary defines health as a “condition of wholeness in which all of the organs of the body are working at perfect efficiency…

So, I’ve been thinking more about this Tim Tebow thing.  I alluded to it (briefly) on Monday and I can’t stop thinking about it.  Let me review first: In the Florida/LSU game on Saturday night we had what seemed like a reversal of philosophies.  LSU started running some weird “spread-offense-type-stuff” and Florida started running all these strange looking “dive” plays.  It was like being in the “Twilight Zone” watching these two teams do things that they don’t normally do;  it was as if they had switched brains or something (just like some kind of weird episode of “Twilight Zone”.) Even…

How do you guys feel when you look in the mirror in the morning? Good? I doubt it. It seems to me at least that I’m never truly satisfied with my own physiques. I always have an insane craving to get stronger, get bigger, get faster. Sometimes I just think, ‘ you know what, screw this, I’m gonna get huge.’ This mentality usually only lasts me maybe a week or two. It’s too difficult trying to be perfect; I always try to run up the river, and as soon as I run out of steam, I get washed away. Sometimes…

Who would have thought that Rush Limbaugh would be such a polarizing force in the NFL, that even talk that he was interested in buying the St. Louis Rams, a team floundering in disarray and drowning in discontent, would string up such a hornet’s nest of activity to try and prevent him from getting membership in the exclusive club known as ownership? After all, even Jennifer Lopez is a minority owner of the Dolphins now, and what does she know about football? At least Limbaugh is well versed, and was considered on a few occasions for a job on ABC’s…

So, we’re back with the second part of this series. If you haven’t read the last article, I’ll quickly catch you up to date: This series is about the 9 key rules that are essential to follow if you are serious about getting muscular. And, with no further ado… 4. Perfection is impossible Don’t try for perfection. You’ll fail, and that’s a guarantee.  Don’t go for the 100% all the time. Leave yourself some space so that you can actually enjoy yourself and your body. Ensure that you don’t spoil your own day by constantly having to have X amount…

For people who have a good level of fitness but do not have time to exercise or want to join a gym, jump rope or skipping has many health benefits. It improves the bone density and prevents age degenerative diseases, such as osteoporosis, as well as provides an effective cardiovascular exercise for the heart. Skipping also helps to develop hand-eye co-ordination, stamina, muscle strength, timing, balance, and endurance. Skipping effectively works the wrists, forearms, shoulders, back, calves, thighs, and buttock muscles, and burns many calories in a short amount of time. Very similar to running, skipping can be tough to…

What do you get when you combine the excitement of professional football with a Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show? Why, the Lingerie Football League of course. Now, I may have overemphasized the “professional” and “football” part of that statement, but there is plenty of eye candy out there to pique the interest of both the hardcore male enthusiast and your usual strip club crowd alike. Now, sure, there have been a plethora of leagues to try and make an impact, but most of them were extremely fleeting, and had little corporate interest. The only one that really lasted was the old…
