Balance Your Strength Training
This video shows Martin Rooney discussing the need for athletic movements in your program. It is not enough to just perform strength training movements. You have to be able to express strength, power, agility, balance, coordination and optimal movement as well.

Cellulite Reduction

The reason why cellulite is more apt to strike the female species is because the female fat is stored differently than the male fat. The men in your life have connective tissues with fat storage units that perform diagonally. The women have connective tissues that are vertical, structured like a honeycomb. It is because of this awful honeycomb feature that enhances our dimples on the leg, mostly the upper thigh.
