Are you worried about your heart, cancer risk, or bone health? Of course you are, especially since cancer and heart disease are the top killers of Americans, and osteoporosis affects more than half of Americans over age 50. If you’re serious about disease prevention, you need to get serious about vitamin D. Vitamin D is an important nutrient found in fish, eggs, fortified milk, and cod liver oil. Many people aren’t getting enough of this vitamin and aren’t aware of the many health benefits it has on the human body. Vitamin D is made up of two components; vitamin D2…

Weekly Update This was my first full week back in the gym. I sat down with my trainer and we decided to do a training split that will be best suited for my partner and I in order to give us the best shot at bringing up our weakest body part — legs! We both need to add more size to our wheels and improve our quads sweep. At the NPC National Level, everyone has massive legs especially the SuperHeavyWeights. In order for me to take out the competition, my legs can no longer be my weakest body part. During this off-season I will be…

This week in the NHL saw suspensions from ugly incidents and vicious hits to the head, a new set of OT thrillers, and a lack of attendance in Phoenix, Anaheim, and Atlanta, though no one in those cities particularly cared. By week’s end, the past two Stanley Cup winners were rising near or at the top of their respective conferences, a hockey team in a market known more for strumming than stick-handling had compiled the most points, and a playoff regular was struggling just to get points. Suspensions Question: What happens when a player puts his hands on a fan?…

Once upon a time women were not as multi-faceted as they are today. Today’s women raise children and have careers. They are entrepreneurs, mothers, have PhDs and are wives all at the same time. One hand’s making dinner while the other’s closing a business deal. If the woman has a successful career and finds love, sometimes she can fall into the trap of becoming a sugar momma. If the guy lost his job or isn’t as far along in his career as he’d like to be, she might try to literally mother him in order to give him time to…

Even though Boston and Miami open Tuesday night we still have a ton of basketball to cover. The NBA’s opening week is not always about big match-ups and crazy games. In fact, sometimes the games are kind of boring. We don’t know how the “Miami Thrice” will gel because Wade has been out with an injury. Boston is old and they won’t hit their stride until the playoffs. However, there are other intriguing games later in the week that may point to how teams will fair this season. It’s unfair to judge any team solely on their first week of…

Brett Favre has been diagnosed with two separate stress fractures in his left ankle and as of now his status is uncertain for Sunday’s game against New England. Favre has started in a NFL record 291 consecutive regular season games. The injury was sustained during last Monday night’s loss to the Green Bay Packers. After taking a hit in the second half of the game, Favre was noticeably limping, but refused medical attention and opted to stay in the game. ESPN is reporting there is no surgery required and when head coach, Brad Childress was asked about Favre’s status for…

Resistance tubing workouts are a great way to get toned and fit at home or when you are on the road. It also is a great tool to use at the gym when you are looking for variety and a new challenge. People tend to think resistance tubes are only for girls and that you can’t get results using them, but this statement is just false. Many athletes use them to stay in shape and challenge their bodies in the off season. Other fitness enthusiasts turn to resistance tubes to challenge their bodies in new ways and to get never-before-seen…

Let’s face it. The Yankees lost the series with the Texas Rangers because they suck. As a Yankee fan I could try and jump to their defense, but I watched the series. I saw the same games you saw. I’m not going to sit here and deny it – the Yankees blew it. They just plain sucked! How It Happened Let’s begin with the starting rotation. C.C. Sabathia not pitching well after 10 days rest to start game one is just plain crap. He’s supposed to be the “ace of the pitching staff.” Tell me he wasn’t practicing during that…

After two short stints in Memphis and Philadelphia it appeared Allen Iverson’s NBA career may be over. Iverson left the 76ers prematurely last season to deal with family issues. Two weeks ago rumors started to circulate that Iverson was in negotiations with a team in China and was more heavily involved with a team in Turkey. Iverson will reportedly play next season for Turkish pro team Besiktas, the deal worth $4 million over the next two-years. Some of the details on the contract would allow Iverson to opt out after one season, but does not contain an NBA escape clause…
