Did You Hear About This?
A Sacramento, CA radio station held a contest called "No Wee for a Wii." It was a water drinking contest to see how much the contestants could drink without going to the bathroom. Ultimately the 2nd place winner (Jennifer Strange) paid with her life! Yes, you can actually die from drinking too much water.

Muscle Milk Pudding Review
Being somewhat of a chocolate fan and having tried numerous fat full and fat free puddings along with other major "bodybuilding" puddings, I felt confident I would be able to give a taste test.
Let's start out with the fact this is marketed towards fitness individuals and bodybuilders who know the value of protein. And not just "protein" but the source it comes from.
Muscle Milk Pudding has more milk based proteins than other brands that target soy. This is higher biologically available protein and in most cases, more efficient for bodybuilders.

s a loss of strength, mobility, and functionality an inevitable part of aging?
No, it’s not. It’s a consequence of disuse, suboptimal hormone levels,
dietary and nutrient considerations and other variables, all of which are compounded
by aging. One of the greatest threats to an aging adult’s ability to stay
healthy and functional is the steady loss of lean body mass - muscle and bone
in particular.
The medical term for the loss of muscle is sarcopenia, and it’s starting
to get the recognition it deserves by the medical and scientific community.
For decades, that community has focused on the loss of bone mass (osteoporosis),
but paid little attention to the loss of muscle mass commonly seen in aging
populations. Sarcopenia is a serious healthcare and social problem that affects
millions of aging adults. This is no exaggeration. As one researcher recently
stated:

To lose fat, one must think. One must exercise their brain to change
their body and reach their weight loss goals. If you have a plan,
you'll succeed. But if you go in the gym and "wing it" everytime,
you'll make no progress month-in and month-out. If time keeps on
passing without any changes in your body, then you have to try
something new.

One thing we have to lose from our workout mindsets is the idea of
this "60-minute workout". Forget about spending that much time in the
gym. Instead, choose better exercises that are more efficient. This
will allow you to get your workout done faster, eliminating the "no
time" workout excuse.
To
do so, you need to eliminate irrelevant exercises. I know you want to
do an exercise for shoulders, and one for arms, and one for abs, and
one for this and that. But before you do, ask yourself, will these
really get me to my goal, or have I just been convinced by bodybuilding
magazines that I need 40 sets per workout to get results?
