by Chris Lopez December 5, 2011

I have some affinity to the number 23.  Maybe it’s because I was a huge Michael Jordan fan growing up. So when I write lists like the one below or the 23 Random Things About Me post, that’s the defence I use.  It could be that my simple mind can only think of 23 things. [...]

Perfect Post-Workout Nutrition

I hate protein shakes. When I was young and was caught up in the whole “supplement thing”, thinking that if I didn’t consume 1g of protein per pound of bodyweight that I was going to shrivel up and turn into a skinny, non-muscular piece of nothing, I drank protein shakes until the cows came home.
