Today I will be taking a little break from my 3 part muscle building series because I like to keep a balance between focusing on the health of the mind and the body. Don’t worry though, tomorrow I will conclude the series with a few full body workout routines that you can get started on […]
Happy Transformation Tuesday everyone! The picture above is my 4 year transformation from about 120 lbs to 225 lbs at a height of 5’8″ (please forgive the hat and sunglasses combo, it was my first time on a boat and I thought I was cool LOL). During this time, all I cared about was becoming […]
Today I want to talk about muscle building. I have not gotten a chance to talk much about this topic yet on my blog but trust me, there will be plenty of muscle building blog posts in the future. Coming from someone who in the past grew from 120 lbs to 225 lbs in 5 […]
