Simply put, intermittent fasting works for me. This morning I weighed in at 211 pounds (down from 218 – goal of 185). I don’t have to schedule fasting like a trip to the gym. Fasting requires no extra time from my day. And as Dr. Jason Fung says, it’s free. Even so, a lot of […]
Fitness Guy
TAKE TWO
So my last day of physical therapy was Friday. I got a clean bill of shoulder/elbow flexibility from that guy Mike. Is there even such a thing?

HOW I DROPPED 10 POUNDS IN 4 WEEKS

I’d probably be down more, but the healthy eating part is a work-in-progress. I have an affinity for craft beers and fine wine! […]
