If you thought your short intensive workouts were hard, perhaps you should try Metabolic Conditioning (or “MetCon” as it is fast becoming known worldwide). A variety of individuals use MetCon, including mixed martial artists, soldiers and actors who need to get into incredible shape fast for movie roles. What is Metabolic Conditioning (MetCon)? MetCon is not a separate workout of its own, rather it incorporates a different set of training tools with the same goals: boost the muscles to build endurance for a harder workout. The core goal is to achieve muscle conditioning, but MetCon also burns a substantial amount…

Fall is here, which means better weather and time to take your workouts outside.  This is my favorite time of year because football season has started, the temperature is getting cooler, and the new season marks a new beginning. This is your chance to switch things up and try new ways to challenge your muscles and metabolism.  Before it gets too cold why not challenge your muscles outside?   The exercises I am going to give you are for people who want to sweat, tone up, and burn excess calories.  Outside is the best place to rev up that metabolism,…

I had the honor of chatting with the Anabolic Doc, which I wanted to do since I frst read his column, and found out he was some what local. I had heard chatter of this man , who was said to be a good guy and a very good Doctor. The icing on the cake is the fact that he has a broad knowledge base of steroids. The idea that a Doctor , a real Doctor ( MD ) that actually knew something about Anabolic Steroids , was unbelievable to me. This is something I have dreamed of for a…

Kevin Kolb The Philadelphia Eagles starting quarterback, Kevin Kolb, suffered a concussion in the season opener against the Green Bay Packers. Although Eagles backup Michael Vick filled in nicely for the injured Kolb, head coach Andy Reid said, “When Kolb is healthy, he is the starter.” ESPN reported that Kolb will not participate in practice until at least Friday if examinations go well. Vick will take all of the reps with first team. Ryan Grant Grant carried the ball eight times for 45-yards before suffering an ankle sprain. Grant was seen wearing a boot on his right foot following Sunday’s…

This week in Sluggers and Slugs we will be taking a quick look at the We’ll start out East with the Phillies and Braves who are separated by one game. Atlanta has a one game lead in the wild card.  The Phillies go to Florida for a series with the Marlins before returning home to play the Washington Nationals. The Braves start the week at home against the Nationals and then make the trip to New York for a weekend series with the Mets.  Both teams have a relatively easy week playing teams that are already planning their vacation destinations…

ACC football is not what it used to be, or is it?  Basically, Florida State was propping up the whole league, and a good 15 years of “propping” left the league thinking it was actually worth something. Now Bobby Bowden is out at FSU, there are no threatening teams in the league, and the “elite” teams aren’t even elite. Don’t believe me?  Did you watch football this Saturday? GT, VT, FSU, U Yep, every one of these teams lost in embarrassing fashion on national television this past Saturday.  Miami gave in to Ohio State, and Jacory Harris ruined his Heisman…

In high school, my nutritionist recommended that I start eating breakfast every day to be in the best shape for softball season. I couldn’t see how eating at six o’clock in the morning could be beneficial. I was completely nauseated first thing in the morning from lack of sleep and a stressful course load and I told the nutritionist so. I’ll never forget what she said in response, “Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper.” Little did I know that she’d passed on advice so sage that I’d remember and pass it on…

Many things have advanced over the past one hundred years in the worlds of science and medicine that we all benefit from today. Those who are health-minded watch the fat and empty calories they put in their bodies along with ensuring that a lot of wholesome foods go in. Balance is key. Some people go beyond this and add a solid exercise routine into their days. Some even go a step farther. They want a total package of well-being: body, soul, and spirit. One way people are adding all-around wellness into their personal lives is through music therapy. Music therapy…

This week I will give my two cents on which players to start in fantasy football on Sunday.  I’ll also give some quick thoughts on the first game of the season; three bets that should yield winnings; and finally, my picks for week 1 of the NFL season. Saints vs. Vikings Recap If you aren’t a fan of either team then Thursday night’s rematch of the NFC Championship must have been a bore. This was a defensive battle in all but three drives of the game. It was an all around fantasy letdown, unless you have Pierre Thomas as your…

ESPN is reporting trade discussions between the Denver Nuggets and Chicago Bulls involving Nuggets forward Carmelo Anthony and Bulls forward/center Joakim Noah. This comes one day after Yahoo Sports released a report that Anthony requested a trade to either the New York Knicks or the Bulls. The Bulls would like to move forward Luol Deng in the trade, but the Nuggets are hesitant to pull the trigger due to Deng’s long term contract. A report coming from the Denver Post says, the Nuggets won’t make any decisions until GM Masai Ujiri has a one-on-one meeting with their All-Star forward. Rumors…
