Only 30 minutes time to workout today? Then focus on maximizing your time under tension doing one total body challenging exercise. Eg: do some tampering down body-weight RDL's and call it a day. BTW, that is working your way up to 3x (15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6 reps) = 315 reps total = 63,000 pounds for an old man like me. Try it but start with one set and see how you feel. http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1113/jphysiol.2011.221200/full

People often use the terms heart attack and cardiac arrest interchangeably, but they are not synonyms. The American Heart Association explains the difference between the two and what to do in each case.

Looking for a delicious hot dinner on a cold rainy evening? This spicy dish will keep you warm as well as provide essential nutrients, like vitamins A and vitamin C. Make it vegetarian by adding tofu or use whole grain pasta if you really want to boost the nutrient and fiber content. This dish is also great heated up for those long study sessions or a busy work-week when time is tight!

Food Hero Recipe

Ingredients
4 cups water
2 packages (3-ounces each) ramen-style noodles
1⁄4 cup peanut butter
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1⁄2 cup water
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut in thin strips
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh ginger (or 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger)
2 carrots, thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
1⁄2 large head cabbage, thinly sliced (about 6 cups)
1⁄4 cup green onions, thinly sliced

Directions
Bring 4 cups water to boil in a medium pot. Add noodles, cover, and remove from heat (do not add flavor packets). Wait one minute, drain noodles and set aside.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat (350 degrees in an electric skillet). Add chicken and cook until no longer pink when cut (3-5 minutes).
In a small pot, combine peanut butter, soy sauce, and 1/2 cup water. Heat over low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat.
Add red pepper, ginger, and carrots. Cook 2 minutes.
Add cabbage and green onions. Cook 2 minutes.
Add cooked noodles and peanut sauce; toss and serve immediately.
Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours.

Notes
To avoid peanuts or peanut butter, try sunflower seeds or sunflower seed butter.

Exciting study in the making at Oregon State University: Three groups of moderately active individuals. Intervention: teach a squat. Group 1 learns by watching a video (visual learning) - Group 2 gets an internal cue (internal focus) - Group 3 gets an external cue (external focus). Who will learn the best after one week of practice and who will retain their skill the best after 4 weeks. Gianni Madallozzo, Bryan Miller (OSU head strength coach), Nick Winkelman and myself are collaborating on this. This is going to be great.https://www.nsca.com/ContentTemplates/PublicationArticleDetail.aspx?id=2147486592
