Friends that lift.
Looking for friends who lift. Especially those who find joy in lifting heavy stuff! Also, friends with more than just a fat loss goal but a fitness goal. I want to be able to run 10 miles easily, do 12 pull-ups, overhead/military/shoulder press my bodyweight (230lbs.) Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera!

Baking soda deodorant
So I know this isn't directly fitness related, but I figure if you work hard you'll smell hard! lol My question is, does mixing a touch of baking soda and water together as a deodorant (as is a common natural alternative) stain my shirts? Especially darker ones.

Dr. Kelly Starret and chronic pain/problems
Hey guys and gals. I just want to put this guy out there for all of you. His name is Dr. Kelly Starret. He's all about self maintenance and getting to the root of the problem not just symptoms.

Should I ice my arms?
So... I think I made a mistake. lol I haven't worked out since November due to a car accident. I've worked flooring and landscaping and stuff, but no muscle isolation. So, Monday morning my sister suggests I come to the gym with her. I figure, "why not?" For the next hour and forty minutes we work out biceps and shoulders.…

Never hit my goal
Hey all. I almost never hit my calorie:carbs/fat/protein goal. I'm often around 500 calories short. Meaning I get a net caloric intake of around 1800-2100 a day (depending on calorie loss- activity that day). Is this an issue? I think the reason is that since I started logging a week ago, I don't eat anything without…

Why the default macros?
Hey all. Just wondering why the default macros are set to 50% carbs, 30% fat, and 20% protein. Everything I've ever heard is that you want low carbs, mid fat and high protein.....so why the high carbs and low protein?
