Okay, just gotta give a quick review/shout out to a product that I dearly cherish. Talk as much crap as you want about it…but I love it! Especially the chocolate peanut butter flavor- for some reason, the texture of that flavor seems creamier than the rest. Arctic Zero is…my ice cream. My “ice cream.” It’s basically glorified whey. It’s whey and water and fiber (chicory root, xantham gum, and guar gum to make it fluffy) so I can eat it ...

When they are quibbling about not seeing results after one workout and one clean meal…or people asking me about how effective L-Carnitine is or anything else…yet their diet is not 100%…I want to say “what’s the point??”…no supplement can counteract an inconsistent diet…Anyway, “ChickenTuna” has been a contributing member of BodySpace (associated with BodyBuilding.com) for many years now and her abs are more than memorable. Yes, I know ...

The trip over here was like 30 hours altogether from start to finish but thankfully it went by quickly and smoothly!
I am staying at a place called “Dream Village.” The owner, Tony, is an awesome guy (born and raised in Phuket) who has gone out of his way to help get me settled.
Others, such as The Fight ...
Well, my beauties, where do I start? So much has happened!
I guess I’ll just start by sharing a bit about my trip to the world famous OLYMPIA! I was very excited!

I was wondering if I could get through the whole day ONLY eating the MCBR + protein shake and I thought so, but after I took Monkey Conditioning class and ...
