  • My knee problems started 20 years ago, just as yours did. I was a weekend warrior and thought I was still 20. Had 3 scopes in my early 40's for meniscus tears and the surgeon said that I already had end stage arthritis. At 51 I had a major osteotomy to correct the alignment in my left knee. I had my right knee replaced 18…

  • It's the sweets that make you tired and listless. Cut them out and your energy levels soar! Keep up the good work. Make sure you drink a good protein shake within 1 hour of working out and Gold Standard whey protein is a great product that you can trust.

  • Don't think of this as a diet, but as a lifestyle change that you can maintain for years to come. If you have been eating foods high in refined sugar and you suddenly cut yourself off you will get hunger pains. These are withdrawal symptoms. The good news is that they go away in about 2 weeks. I've lost 12 pounds this…

  • Gold Standard Whey protein contains 24 grams of protein and contains 120 calories. I make a smoothie with this on exercise days. Gold Standard is ranked one of the best protein powders and it tastes great.

  • Balance is always key. Best to eat carbs earlier in the day. Have a protein shake with a banana. 6 ounces of protein (chicken, fish, lean meat) and 2 cups of stir fried vegetables. That should fill you up.

  • Sodium from processed foods causes you to retain fluids and unburned sugars are converted to fat. Balance is the key to everything. I've lost 12 lbs since Jan. 1st. Was 262 now 250. 50 lbs to go. The secret is moderate exercise 3 to 4 times a week with elevated heart rate and healthy eating. Here is a typical day for me on…

Next sprinkle evenly over chicken with 1/2 tbsp kosher salt and 1 tsp dry thyme. Leave uncovered in fridge overnight. Preheat oven to 400F. place the…
