The average caloric intake in the USA: 3540 kcal/day The average daily physical activity: less than 20 min But there are people out there who believe oatmeal, fruits, vegetables, & polyunsaturated fats are what is making us sick

No one believes in you because every time you said you would do something, You never did it. That time you said you're going to go to the gym every day? You stopped after 2 weeks. Your New Year’s resolution? You broke it in 4 months. You said you would find a way to make

The anti-aging secret no one talks about: Resistance training reverses aging in human skeletal muscle If you're not doing strength training, you're aging faster.
