First of all… the whole term “lose weight” is false. Even when people really really mean it, no one actually wants to lose “weight”. They want to lose the fat. Unattractive, jiggly, mushy, gross fat.

Product Name: Phix Sleep Aid Company: Phix MSRP: $9.95 for box of 5 sticks Availability: Low (Form What I Know… Website Only) Ok, we all know that the energy drink market is over-crowded and ever-popular, so if you’re in the beverage business, what should you do?

My pep talk for this week is below. As always, be sure to drop by Wendy’s Blog for some awesome recipes and to complete the entire “FJ Friday” experience… If you’ve read my stuff in the past… then you know how I feel about “information” and “knowledge”. There is plenty of it out there, but no one is doing anything with it. Knowledge isn’t power, applied knowledge is where ... more.

When you are nervous, hesitant or have self doubt in your mind… what should you do? What do most people do? Well since we are social beings and we are always seeking for some encouragement and validation, so we try and get advice from our family and friends. And when you seek advice from people who already admire/like you, what type of “wisdom” do you usually receive? “just be yourself ... more.

So here is volume two of my verbal ramblings for your hearing pleasure. After getting my feet wet with the first one and getting some solid feedback I decided it was time to apply the lessons learnt and bang out another one (give it a minute to load). I'll try and make podcasting a weekly occurrence so you can get more content and I can get more practice in front of the mic. If you have fitness... more.

Product Name: Whey Crisps (Chocolate) Company: BPT Technologies MSRP: $34.99 [Click For Lowest Prices On Whey Crisps] Availability: Medium (Most Major Online Retailers) A while back I reviewed the Original Whey Crisps and I absolutely loved that shit.

This week on FitJerk Fridays I'm going to share a really intimate little post. Well, as intimate as my outspoken crazyness can get. It's about your workout buddy, or why you should get one if you don't currently have one. You can call them your partner in crime because together you can seriously run shit with super tight efficiency. Then Wendy from Simply Me shows us a basic, yet delightful Roaste... more.

Sup fellas and fellalitas? Today I'll be sharing the interview I did with a dude named Jordan Cooper over at NotAProBlog. This guy is SO not a pro that I just had to site down and talk some smack with him. But it was good smack, it was smack with without the whack. That means boat loads of content with a little bit of hilarity. Here's a little taste... Q: You seem to give very practical tips on ... more.

(image cred: http://paxarcana.wordpress.com/) I deliver results, so I shouldn’t be trusted. I speak the truth, so you should pretend to hate. I have passion, so you should respond with ignorance. I’m a giver, so you should never take. I’m always upfront, so you should bask in suspicion. I curse and yell, so you shouldn't be reading between the lines. I practice self respec... more.

So if you recall, last week I wrote and article which mentioned 5 solid reasons why you need amazing abs. I got a pretty good email response from that one. A few guys were trying to be sneaky little bastards and asking for the promised ab routine before the masses could lay their eyes on it. Pfft… nice try doods. I don’t break that easy. But fear not, because today the wait is over. I’ll ... more.
