Sure, if you're an idiot... or in Honduras where you will turn lobster red in 30 minutes flat. And I'm not sure if you read my post? I never even talked about clouds. I specifically said do it when the sun is fully visible. Anyways, if you go for a 20 minute jog or wash down your car for half an hour when the sun is…

Well congrats on getting to a spot you're comfortable with! That's really awesome. Like the other poster said, you really shouldn't start with more than 5 minutes or so to kick things off. Like your fitness took weeks/months/years to achieve, tanning can take several weeks as well. Definitely not an overnight process. A…

This. The personal trainer is there for you! BUT they're educated in their field and generally knows what's best. Perhaps he does have a really good reason and he just needs you to explain again that you prefer to use free weights and work on your form with free weights.

Meat takes a lot longer to digest than veggies, so if you find that you're getting hungry…

Hey! I feel your pain. I was addicted to fast food before I started my health kick back in march. Something that helped me immensely - I started taking probiotics (good bacteria that helps regulate you colon) When you eat sugary foods the old bad bacteria in your colon starts to crave that unhealthy food more and more and…

I notice the most reduced abdominal fat when I focus my whole core, not just the abs. working your back, obliques and abs is key. Planks are awesome, but not singularly effective. Always combine your workouts crunches, leg lifts, planks etc and then do full body items like push-ups (focusing your core, maybe lifting a leg)…
