This will be a fairly short post today. Like most of the online world, I have been sort of caught up in the video craze. Not to a great extent,but a little. I have no idea how to put a video together. I have a Canon digital camera that takes stills as well as short video clips and I have made a short clip with it, but that is as far as it goes.

Many times we read about how to do an exercise and might even be shown a picture or to to demonstrate it. And then we try to do it and it simply does not seem right. So we read the explanation again and hopefully it makes sense so we can start to benefit from it.

Everywhere you look people are walking around with bottled water. Often it is designer water with added electrolytes, carbohydrates or other additives. Do you need the extras or would plain old water be good enough?
To answer this question we need to first take look at the …

Are your workouts giving you the results you want? Do you look in the mirror and see bulging muscles growing more massive? Or have you been spending hours at the gym and still seeing the same “old” you in the mirror?
If you have been seriously trying to build muscle month after month with only modest gains in muscle mass, you’re doing it wrong! But, you’re in good company. 95% of the people in the gym are failing and never achieve their goals.
