What Girls Mean by “I Want to Find Myself”
Women are creatures of emotion and they like to constantly be bombarded with different emotions. If you disagree with this, you are either naive or inexperienced with women (usually both).

You Will Lose Friends to Success (And That’s Okay)

Implications of Constrained Energy Expenditure (Nutrition For Health and Hypertrophy Part 15)
In the previous piece, I talked about what the Constrained Energy Expenditure Model actually is, and in this piece, I want to talk about its implications.

The Game is Action, Not Reading
I was speaking to someone who said they’ve been reading me for the past 6 years. Yes, I do talk to regular readers – this blog is two way communication. He mentioned that he was broke and “was thinking of making money online”. I asked him “You’ve been reading me for 6 years, how come […]

Focus on Things That Move The Needle (Work on The Bottleneck)
I’ve been in the health and fitness space on the internet for many years, far longer than many of my younger readers. I’ve seen many trends and fads come and go, some more ridiculous than others. Right now the fad trend in the health space is “Palm oil is the devil’s urine and you should […]
Should You Lie About Your Age? (“How Old Are You?”)
A short post today because it’s an easy answer to a reader question. How should you respond to “How old are you?” when you’re on a date? Should I even tell her? The question comes from an older person who’s gotten divorced and is re-entering the dating market. All women want to know your age, […]
