... Bodybuilding was but a memory back home.

Spring rolls around and you are back home for the summer. But wow have you changed? Heavier, smoother and where did those muscles go? You return to the gym for the summer to get in shape. You find it is next to impossible to return the body to its former ripped state much less building up this summer.

My point here guys, bodybuilding is not for the weak willed. If you want to continue to be in shape you must plan the discipline of working out if you are going to have the better body. Bodybuilding is tough. Dont kid yourself. If it was easy everyone would be in shape.

So what should you do? Well if you are college bound do the following:

-During campus visit check out the gym facilities. Determine if the equipment is suitable to meet your bodybuilding needs.

-Do your campus visit during the normal school year to get a feel for the people that are going. Is the gym too crowded (undersized for the campus)? What is the attitude of those training, motivational or passively active.

-How close is the gym to the living quarters? Is it convenient?

-What are the food choices at the cafeteria? Can I get the high protein foods? Is ...more

The Direct TV Versus Dish Network Dilemma

...Eenie meenie, miney mo - to which satellite TV service shall I go? Choosing between Direct TV (it is really called Directv) and the Dish Network is like deciding which political party is more corrupt than the other. It is all a matter of your perception of the programming and preference. Is one really better than the other? Not really. They even have similar marketing promotions like a free satellite TV system when you purchase their satellite TV receiver or buy a certain programming package.

If you go by the number of customers alone, Directv would the outstanding choice. However, that is not necessarily true. They just have a lot more money to spend on advertising. How about price? Should you go by price alone to decide on a satellite dish net...more

3 Keys To Finding Your Natural Running Stride

...the tread itself is helping your legs' motion, rather than you actually pushing yourself forward. Similarly, if you run downhill, it's much easier because you don't have to push yourself up in the air as much to gain the forward distance you need.

So add a little incline to you run - not much, just enough that you can feel the extra push. Not only does this simulate running on flat ground, it also makes your motion more natural. Running downhill and running on the flat produce variations in your stride that make you more or less efficient. So by increasing your incline, you induce a more natural style to you movements.

3. Remember to focus on your breathing.

The final key is related to the other two. As my stride increased, and my effort increased, I found that my rate and de...more

A set of custom golf clubs is a dream of most golfers. However the reality is that unless you are a professional golfer or someone that is totally committed to the game you are not going to lay out the money that is required for a custom set of sticks. Let's face it you can go to just about any golf pro shop and pick up a very good set of golf clubs at a reasonable price. In addition most golfers will not be able to play to the full ability and design of their golf clubs. The down side of a production set of golf clubs is that they certainly are not unique and just about anyone can have exactly the same set you are playing with. Golf is as much mental as it is physical and a set cu...more

The Masters Golf Course Brings Golfers To Their Knees

...part by shooting 18 under par in 1997, the Masters golf course has been criticized as a relic of the past.

The golf course at augusta hosted the first Masters in 1934. Bobby Jones called the tournament the "augusta National invitational tournament" until 1939.

The most notable changes involved lengthening the course, adding a rough, additional trees, and deepening bunkers.
