The path and direction in which the muscle fibers are aligned is genetic. Gravity does have a significant effect on muscle growth, however. Muscles grow in response to resistance, and gravity provides that resistance. Astronauts follow specific exercise programs when in space for long periods of...

I like this topic. Nice post bro. We are all different and we all have individualistic genetic predispositions. That is what makes our sport special. It is the epitome of an "individual sport." I think that a bodybuilder should look at his physique as a sculpture. The way Michelangelo would...

I would assume that this is a combination of mental and physical issues. 9/10 recreational lifters completely alter their lifestyle for weeks that they do not train, without really knowing what they are doing to themselves. It is as if they subconsciously say to themselves "If I am not working...

What is the widely accepted protocol/dosage for Dostinex during a Deca cycle as a preventative measure?

You have to be careful with areas such as your hands (knuckles and palms especially), knees, elbows, and basically anywhere there is extra layers of keratinized skin. One coat with the ProTan is enough for these areas as well as the face. Be sure that your face matches the shade of the rest of...

Over the past few months I have grown fond of Gaspari's products. Some of them anyway.
