Give Your Exercise Program a K.I.S.S.
In the last few weeks, I've been reading a ton of exercise books. Fat loss, metabolic circuits, home exercise programs and how to administer a good old fashion muscular ass whoopen. To say I've been inspired doesn't quite do it justice. The one thing most of these books had in common was an exercise routine needs a K.I.S.S. to make it work. Now normally, the only kissing during exercise I see is when people at INTEGRATE plant one on the floor after a hard…See More

My Top Five Least Favorite Exercises
I recently worked out at a public gym for the first time in a long time, and it didn't take long for me to remember why I never go to one:
1) People doing things the wrong way.
2) Trainers "teaching" people to do things the wrong way.
3) The wrong exercises being done incorrectly.
