Not Just a Man's World

Lots of bits and bobs this week, although it’s pretty much all on-topic.  Hopefully there’s something for everyone (though I’m not sure if the hot pants link will be of more interest to the men or the women)! Years ago in our evolutionary past women would have wanted to find the strongest males to mate [...]

So I wasn’t ill this week.  In fact, I did a whole week of work in the office and I managed to follow my new “evening relaxing and rolling” protocol.  I’m determined to stay chilled, eat well and keep the sick bugs away from me for as long as possible. A mixed bunch of links [...]

I’ve been unwell this week.  Surprisingly this didn’t give me much more time to do my reading since I couldn’t stand concentrating on print on the screen for long periods of time.  When I did it all rapidly turned into nonsense and incomprehensible shapes on the page.  However, I did find a few interesting titbits [...]

There seems to be a running theme of me writing this in hotel rooms on Thursday evenings!  In fact it’s pretty late right now because I had to write up some slides for work first, already an hour past my bedtime, so apologies if this is a short list this week.  However, there’s been so [...]

I managed to find some time before I went on holiday to put together a proper links post for this week, making up for last week’s poor showing.  I hope you enjoy these. You all know how much I rave about Bret Contreras, hip thrusts and most other things glute-related.  You’ve probably also guessed from [...]

I’m writing this on Thursday evening while sat in a hotel room.  Before I get started with the links I wanted to share something amusing from the room service breakfast menu.  It has a “Fit a la carte” selection section as follows: Option 1: High protein: Steak, mushrooms, poached eggs and tomato.  I usually follow [...]

I heard something utterly ridiculous on the radio the other week.  It seems that scientists have found a correlation between the gum disease in people who brush their teeth only once a day or even less frequently and heart disease.  The researchers have apparently said that “more work is needed to confirm if poor oral [...]

I went to see Iron Man 2 last weekend.  It wasn’t bad, though perhaps not as good as the first one.  However, the film was really ruined for me by the two leading ladies, namely Gwyneth Paltrow and Scarlett Johansson (isn’t it odd that Microsoft Word spell-checker recognises the spelling of Ms Johansson’s name but [...]

A whole batch of random links this week covering everything from a crazily obese woman with a weight gain goal through to a super product review from Eric Cressey. Donna Simpson weighs 600 lbs and she is purposefully trying to eat her way to weighing 1,000 lbs.  Her food bills get covered by the money [...]

Lots of women-specific information this week in one way or another but I’d be most worried about the cats… There are women out there who are IT geeks and gamer girls.  They may be a rare species, much like women who do powerlifting, but they do exist.  However, what are the chances of coming across [...]
