		<title>Exercise Outside of the Box</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When was the last time you watched the Olympics, saw a ripped gymnast perform on the rings, and thought &#8220;I bet he spends a lot of time on the bench press&#8221;?  When the swimmers came up next, did you wonder how much weight Michael Phelps squats? Gymnasts, swimmers, sprinters, and dancers all typically have extremely [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8220;Lean muscle&#8221; vs &#8220;Bulky muscle&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[To be blunt, muscle is muscle.  Many people refer to these as two different types of muscle, as if you can build one or the other, but this is simply not true.  The difference is all about body fat levels, and how much of the muscle you can SEE.  &#8221;Lean muscle&#8221; is just muscle with [...]]]></description>

		<title>What Should I Eat?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you have read my other posts, you will probably see a theme- no single solution works for everyone!  In the same way that there is not a one-size-fits-all exercise program, there is also no single diet that is best for everyone.  For starters, everyone has different goals, different starting points, and different foods that [...]]]></description>

		<title>How important is supplementation?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The key to answering this question is realizing what the purpose of supplements is.  As the name implies, nutritional supplements are meant to SUPPLEMENT your nutrition- not replace it!  Even though there are many great supplements out there that can help, your eating habits are exponentially more important.  Using supplements to make up for a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Should I exercise if I am sick?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is a question that comes up any time one of my personal training clients gets sick.  The answer depends on how bad the person feels and what exactly is wrong, but here is the general idea&#8230; If you are feeling like you are just starting to get sick or like you have something that [...]]]></description>

		<title>Should I exercise in the morning or evening?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Every personal trainer out there has heard this question!  My answer is that it depends on the person.  Most people who ask me this question do so because they have heard that it is better to work out in the morning, but are not sure why.  The main reason for this is that testosterone levels [...]]]></description>

		<title>Free Weights, Cables, or Guided Machines</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One is not necessarily better than the other two, but each type of equipment has its own advantages and disadvantages.  Free-weights are typically the toughest to control of the three since you have full control to move them in any direction.  This can be a good thing in the right hands, or a bad thing [...]]]></description>

		<title>Isolation Exercises vs Full Body Exercises</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There is no right or wrong answer here, it depends on the person, the goal, and the amount of time available.  If done correctly, isolation exercises have the most potential to build muscle- but even though this type of routine will typically only include working a couple of body parts per day, more days of [...]]]></description>

		<title>One-Size-Fits-All Exercise Program?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I’m sorry to say that there is no such thing.  The first thing that every personal trainer learns (hopefully!) is that what works for one person may not work for another!  There are definitely many elements of exercise that remain consistent in any exercise program, but each program needs to be tailored specifically to fit [...]]]></description>

		<title>Form over Force</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Always remember that how you perform your exercises is much more important than which exercises you choose! Most people who have trouble developing certain body parts will just look for different exercises to do and wonder why the results never improve. Without proper posture and body alignment, you will continue to bang your head against [...]]]></description>
