If I remember correctly Bass would be cut throughout the calendar year, not just periodically. He very much combined the early west-coast "strength & health" lifestyle into his bodybuilding --...

Congrats to bb.com. I was around during the early days, then decided to register in 2004. To those early on the web, the changes that have taken place are obvious -- people, content and delivery. I...

Good to see you Carl.

For me, personally, I prefer it quiet. Like a church.

As a jazz muscian, one would think the opposite. But any type of musical notes are just too distracting for any task...

Well, first off, God bless 'em all . . . I can remember when it took everything I had to walk around the block -- and I needed a rest day the next day.

Since I have my own gym, I don't see many...

Happy New Year everyone. The best of the best for 2007.

There is no such thing as a normal place to hurt, no matter what exercise or movement is being done.

I wish I had understood more about the role of the mind . . . i.e. the fact that our organs and muscles are not isolated, but an integral part of the brain/mind itself. Each cell connected and...

I had a hard time turning 50 last January, because I thought I was now closing in on the end of my life. Now, 11 months later, it's no big deal anymore.

Although I do admit that I realize that...

Reminds me of fathers who are now "sneaking" dna testing/swabs of their children.

Excellent advice (IMO). Reps.

Every so often I have grain fed, dry-aged prime beef flown in from Allen Brothers. I cook it over either applewood or oak, after the wood has been reduced to hot embers.

Other than home (which is...

As I get older, they're fewer and further between . . . but nothing compares to moving through a workout like a hot knife through butter.

I noticed the stationary bike, too.

I recently replaced one very similar with a newer recumbent. It's like strapping in to the Starship Enterprise.

I didn't throw my old faithful one away...

Great book, I'd recommend it highly. Very "readable" and hard to put down.

I also have Vince Gironda's original book --although I can't recall the actual title typing here this morning (on the tip...

I turned 50 back in January.

I have my AARP card. (!)

Hitting the big 5-0 has brought home the fact that I probably have more life behind me, than in front of me.

I know how fast time has...

Checking in -- (if 50 and above falls into the geezer category).

Very interesting hapkido.

I actually psych myself DOWN before a workout.

I want to have a clear mind, with no residual "static" from the day. I also do not listen to any music, nor allow any distractions when it is time to...

Lindt's 85% is hard core. :-)

I agree with fitnessman above (no reason you can't do both) and will add this:

IMO, your "building up" at this point in time (after a layoff such as yours) should be more focused on getting...
