A recent study has finally made the point that needs to be made: drinking drinks with high fructose corn syrup is a really bad idea. They raise blood sugar worse than practically anything. It amazes me that the shelves are loaded with these drinks. Unless you are in perfect shape and plan to be that way well into the future you are making a big mistake by drinking these drinks. If you wish to prepare the way for adult onset diabetes, you are on the right track with these drinks. If you like the ones that taut their vitamin content and the label says they have fructose in them, you are wiping out the value of the vitamins. They are often called "sports drinks," which they may be. They are not "health drinks".
Arnold was recently asked in one of those retrospective interviews what it was that gave him such huge baseball sized biceps. His answer was that he considered supination the key.Supination? Its from a Latin word that means flat on the back. What that means for your biceps is that turning the wrist as you do a curl until it is facing the shoulder(flat) at the top is the key to a bigger biceps. That is what NMF was trying to tell you in the last post(Biceps of Intermediates).
I think it is worth repeating that quad training is an absolute must if you are going to get the most out of weight training. More and more of what I read is about the importance of all out training for a limited time to expand the heart and lungs. If you train quads and do not end up going all out for a brief time you are not training quads. The overall conditioning that quad work produces cannot be duplicated by any other body part or combination of body parts. I talk alot about intensity and quad training is intense. Your heart and lungs get the message. I realized this when a quad workout recently left me gasping and spent. It had taken all of 15 minutes.
Shaq is getting the message about our blubber afflicted younger generation and the impotence of the ossified public schools to do anything about. I don't watch reality shows but tuned in on the big man one night lately and there he was getting the full dose of the state of our kids and the refusal of the educational system to deal with it. It really isn't their job if the parents are opting out of responsibility... and they are. If you check the NMF archives you'll get my suggestion on this topic and it could be done,if the government's schools could get into shape first. One half hour a day could make a huge difference, if the community demanded it. It won't. Your servant, as always.
