Blow Up Your Biceps with This Bicep Rope Finisher
I do a small amount of personal training here in my facility. I am lucky enough to have found some guys who will literally try anything I challenge them to do, and they often end up performing the exercises just as well if not better than me.

CDC: Teens Don’t Eat Enough Fruits and Veggies
Nov. 23, 2011 — Many American teenagers may be eating fewer fruits and vegetables each day than nationwide guidelines recommend for this age group, a CDC report suggests.
In 2010, about one in four high school students ate fruit less than once a day, and one in three didn’t eat vegetables more than once a day.
Although diets rich in fruits and vegetables can help control weight and are also linked with a lower risk of chronic diseases and some cancers, most teens are falling short of the recommended daily levels.
To find out how much produce teenagers were typically eating, the CDC reviewed data from the 2010 National Youth Physical Activity and Nutrition Study.
For this study, students attending both public and private high schools across the country were asked to complete a survey describing the kinds of fruits and vegetables they had eaten in the last week and how often they had them.
The survey of 10,765 high school students showed that teens ate both fruits and vegetables an average of 1.2 times a day.
