If you are not sure if he’s over his ex, these five factors will make it clear. Unusual Amount of Contact When you’re…

Ask a guy to describe the physically ideal woman, and he’ll likely trace an hourglass figure in the air with both hands. After all, the hourglass frame is considered the perfect body shape by most people. This is because hourglass shapes are naturally proportionate, characterized by a larger chest and hips with a slender waistline in between. Despite — or because of — their balanced appearance, women with hourglass figures tend to carry more weight than those with other body types. So an hourglass who is 5’7″, has a larger frame, and is well-toned will look more slender at 155…

According to a report by Deadspin, Favre sent a picture of his genitals and left her voice mails while during his one season with the Jets. The woman in questions is Jenn Sterger, who formerly did game-day work with the organization. NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said Friday, “We are reviewing the matter.” Thursday, Favre was asked about…

I talked to a friend of mine who was contemplating increasing her protein in her diet and trying a strictly high protein diet. Now, she’s not a bodybuilder but wants to change the way her body looks. She asked one of the young employees, who is a professional bodybuilder, at the Racquet Club how much protein he takes a day for his sport. He told her 200+ grams a day. This shocked my friend for she could not fathom how to get that much protein her body. Obviously, protein a requirement of a bodybuilder is vastly exceeds those of the…

Even if you don’t get cable you’ve probably seen the ads or read the reviews. Mary-Louise Parker plays a mother who sells marijuana. I know, totally implausible, right? Who cares!?! She looks great, she’s over 40, and she’s a fantastic actor. However, how is it that a woman who’s over 40 plays a super-skinny mom that sells weed? How do you end up looking like that? Sure, it’s partially good genes. She got lucky, she got all the looks in the family, and she’s famous — that helps. Basically, there’s got to be something else. There’s got to be a…

Life as a bodybuilder is tough. Often eating high quality protein six to eight times per day can become tiring, but there are effective ways to boost the health of the body without looking to diet as the only source. Vitamins are essential for all bodybuilders. They keep the body in tip-top health. Bodybuilders often train their muscles to the edge of discomfort, and this can lead to over-training, infections, and delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). Vitamins are essential for growth, maintenance, and proper metabolism. Without these, the body will struggle to maintain its health through the intense training that…

The Minnesota Vikings and New England Patriots made a trade early Wednesday morning, sending All-Pro wide receiver Randy Moss and a 2012 seventh-round pick to the Vikings. In return the Patriots get a 2011 third-round pick from Minnesota. Moss had expressed his unhappiness with the organization about not having a contract pass this year earlier in the off-season. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported on Mike and Mike in the Morning that, although Patriots head coach Bill Belichick had never publicly expressed his frustration with Moss’s public unhappiness, it was bothersome to him. Moss played three full season and the first four…
