I’m more or a trail rider myself and hoping to race again this summer at Kelso Conservation. That said, a bunch of the guys I hang with and respect are a bunch of lightweight spinners and road cyclists… yeah, you know them as “roadies”. So I hit the road with them on Saturday for my first ride on a road bike since grade 9. YIKES! read the rest and see the silver bullet http://empowerednutrition.com/are-you-a-roadie …

August is Awesome Muscle Month

OK so when you think about nutrition do you think muscle building or fat loss? August is Awesome Muscle Month The answer is BOTH because Nutrition is the key link to BOTH Muscle Building and Fat Loss. Wihtout empowered nutrition, you won't accomplish any of your goals. You won't burn fat and you won't build muscle. You certainly won't be able to build it up and cut it off and show that lean sexy body you'be been working so hard for. Just to remind you that muscles are sexy and fun, I included this cool video at the end you just have to see... it's awesome! So to help you I want to remind you to cycle your training and your nutrition for the Ultimate Transformation. You will want to build muscle as much as you can, as fast as you can and as effectively as you can. You will also want to cut the fat as fast and efficiently as you possibly can. That is why I am going to stick to a theme for you and keep reminding you that August is Awesome Muscle Month. Need I remind you that Muscle Building is for BOTH Men and Women. Come on guys, don't be so ego-typical and think I was writing this just for you. yeah right a whole month dedicated to…
