Better Abs, Better Sex
Fitness Rx for Men|Spring 2017

It doesn’t matter if you were naughty or nice; better abs and better sex did not magically appear over the holidays.

Better Abs, Better Sex

Both are hallmarks of a youthful, vigorous, physically active and healthy body. Unfortunately, as attributed to humorist George Bernard Shaw, “Youth is wasted on the young.” Not only that, but changes in lifestyle and social trends now encourage obesogenic behavior, and body types that are associated with metabolic disorders and other increased health risks.

Consider the motivation to trim the waistline and improve torso tone if the results weren’t just a “beach body,” but also allowed for better sexual function and satisfaction! Is it wrong to pursue a healthy goal if part of the intent is to receive pleasure? No, reinforcing a positive behavior generally improves participation and compliance. So, get ready to crunch, plank and Kegel your way to better sex.

Muscle-Building Research Review: Best of 2016

ENHANCED PERFORMANCE WITH CREATINE AND REST-PAUSE TRAININGThe right combination of supplement and training techniques can vigorously boost muscle size and strength. One combination suggested in 2016 involved the joint use of creatine monohydrate with the rest pause training technique. Rest-pause training typically involves the use of a weight that you can lift for a specific amount of repetitions. Yet, instead of lifting the weight uninterrupted for a complete set of repetitions, you rest between repetitions. This approach will typically allow performance of additional repetitions, providing a substantial training effect that boosts muscle size and strength.

Don't Find Influence in Others

Joe, i love following you on instagram (@joedon- nellyfit). You seem like a person of intense and con- sistent motivation. My question to you is how do i prevent lulls in my levels of motivation? I find things to motivate me, it runs its course and then before i know it i feel completely unmotivated. How do i fix this? What should i focus on or stay away from when looking for consistent motivation? Thank you in advance.
