It has long been known that bodybuilders and strength athletes consume high amounts of beef to help build muscle and increase strength. The muscle building power of beef cannot be disputed. Ask any bodybuilder and they will tell you that they make their biggest muscle gains and feel their strongest ...
Cardio. Iron heads like us hate it. The thought of spending 30 minutes at 70% of max heart rate on an elliptical trainer sounds about as pleasurable as watching a Lifetime movie marathon or listening to Kenny G. However, as unfortunate as it may be, in my opinion, some form ...
So you think you have what it takes to be a movie star? Do you take pride in a bodybuilding regimen that you believe is rugged beyond belief? Then a day in the life of Mark Wahlberg might prove to be an eye-opening experience for you.

Forrest Gump is one of my favorite movies. Though I was only eight years old at its release, I've watched it countless times throughout my life. Every time I finish watching, I take something new from it. But most often I'm reminded of Mama's refrain,

defensive lineman Muhammad (Mo) Wilkerson, an aggressive, physical player who has elevated his ...
Here at ProSource, we live by the motto "Strength Through Adversity," and we've certainly had our share of adversity in recent days. SuperStorm Sandy roared in, making landfall right over our heads here at the Jersey Shore and leaving devastation in its wake. But we're happy to say that we've ...
Like death and taxes, strength plateaus are inevitable. It doesn't matter if you are a beginner, intermediate or advanced trainee; plateaus are simply part of the training process and must be strategically dealt with. Once you hit a plateau, how you choose to manipulate your sets, reps, and training loads ...
