“It was character that got us out of bed, commitment that moved us into action, and discipline that enabled us to follow through.” Zig Ziglar The pain was excruciating… And I was only in my second of who knows how many sets. That’s the thing with the calisthenics at the end of boxing practice. No […]
Courage. The Most Important Virtue A Man Can Possess.
“Courage is not simply one of the virtues, but the form of every virtue at the testing point.” C.S. Lewis I watched a movie the other day. It made me think whether or not I would have the courage to stand up for what I believe, and what I stand for, even in the face […]
How To Develop Strength. Courage. And Look Good Naked.
Vulnerability. That annoying little thing that women want from us. They want us to expose our feelings. Share what’s inside. “Tell me what you’re feeling… inside.” “Express your feelings!” “Communicate!” So many arguments between men and women begin and end with our inability to express our feelings, and their abundant need to do so. It’s […]
A Real Man Won’t Let Time Run His Life
“Time is free, but it’s priceless. You can’t own it, but you can use it. You can’t keep it, but you can spend it. Once you’ve lost it you can never get it back.” ~ Harvey Mackay Are you going to let time beat you? September 9, 1985 was my first day at war with […]
Life is Good. But it Isn’t Easy.
Life is good. But it isn’t easy. 5:58 am. My eyes crack open. Then close again, unsure if light is what they want to be exposed to right now. Without a thought I sit up like The Undertaker (of WWF fame – here’s what I mean), unaware of the time or the fact that my alarm is […]
Man: A Carnivore Or Vegetarian?
A world without predators… No lions roaming the Serengeti, tigers scouring the Siberian tundra, or men standing at the grill, spatula in hand, waiting for their steak to hit that perfect blend of medium and rare. When you think of it in modern-day terms, man is no longer a hunter gatherer. But we were for […]
Why We’re Fat: The Missing Link
The hunt. Spear, firmly gripped in my hands. The beast stands proud, ears erect, unaware that he will soon provide my family with a much needed meal. The ground is dry. If I’m not careful, the twigs and branches beneath my feet can alert the animal at any moment. I lie waiting for the right […]
What it Means To Be A Man
You’re not a real man just because your balls have dropped, your voice has deepened, or you have some hair on your face. Just because you have a job, lot’s of money, or even a family – although the latter responsibility has turned many a boy into a man – doesn’t give you the title of […]
The 10 Best Supplements for Men
I remember walking into a weight room and seeing the jacked guys having their protein shakes – and who knows what else – and thinking that’s what I’m missing. That’s what they’re doing that I’m not, that’ll get me jacked. So I started taking supplements, all kinds of supplements. But nothing changed. Why? Because our ideal physique doesn’t […]
Do You Deserve What You Want? Shockingly: No.
Do you deserve what you want? You deserve what you have. Nothing more. Nothing less. The simple fact is that you haven’t done anything extraordinary to deserve that which you want but don’t have. Am I being a dick? Maybe a little, but no one is excluded from this, including myself, so don’t get your panties […]
the death of heroism
Are you a hero? By today’s standards, you may very well be. The modern day hero is the father who is there for his family. He’s the husband who stays faithful to his wife. The person who puts others before himself. The girl who has a crazy idea to help other people instead of simply […]
10 Unconventional Weight Room Mistakes
I’m looking in the mirror at the gym. My shoulders are about as wide as the girl standing next to me. My shirt, a medium, may as well have been a XXXL. To say I was skinny would be an understatement. I was a toothpick. I couldn’t find a shirt that would fit tight around my […]
How to Lower Estrogen Levels in Men
The skinny fat man, or more specifically, the man boob. Are they a product of fat, or of high estrogen levels? Well, the skinny fat man‘s life is kind of a revolving door of one thing contributing to another, all contributing to higher estrogen levels, lower testosterone levels, and a physique that doesn’t inspire a whole lot […]
Jeremy Lin, Ignorance, & A Unique Path to Success
Why You Need More Testosterone in Your Life!
So here I stand… …half way up a volcano in Maui. The lush greenery is like nothing I’ve ever seen – which is saying a lot coming from Vancouver. The weather on the mountain’s nothing to be desired. It’s cold and its wet. Goosebumps cover my skin like spots on a cheetah. But the smile […]
