There was a time when I would only train in the evening, generally after 4 pm. Then I tried and fell in love with lunch workouts.

Many other aspects of my training and nutrition have changed over the years, but this is a big one. Take a read below to learn what a 20-year-old thought about getting exercise during lunch and working for an employer. Things sure do change.

Do you often wonder exactly what is creatine? We see this supplement everywhere. Millions of athletes use it since it is a safe and legal performance enhancer. But where does creatine come from? What does it do?
Creatine is made up of the amino acids arginine, glycine, and L-methionine, which are synthesized in the liver and kidneys. Some creatine is obtained naturally from meat and fish in the diet, particularly those containing high levels such as beef, tuna, and herring though some are destroyed when meat is cooked.
An average human has approximately 120 grams of creatine in the body at any one time and this is broken down into creatinine at the rate of 2 grams a day and excreted by the kidneys.
At the most, athletes usually use doses of 3-5 grams of creatine supplements a day. This seems to be the most effective, maintainable regimen. Now let’s take a look at what creatine is and why you might consider using it.

Part of living a healthy lifestyle is getting the proper amount of rest. Without rest our bodies can not recover from stress, and we end up getting sick. One method of relaxation that I frequently use, is watching movies. I love the horror and sci-fi genres, but a good comedy is always welcome, and when the holiday season is here I have a great assortment of Christmas movies and Halloween movies to work through when I can find the free time to watch.
During the Christmas and holiday seasons, I love to watch the traditional holiday movies that I grew up with as a kid like The Christmas Story, as well as some of the excellent newer flicks like Bad Santa, and some unpopular films that I love like Ernest Saves Christmas.
Updated for 2016!
Warning: some of the videos below (like Bad Santa) contain R-rated content. Don’t view them if you are easily offended.
