Not Just a Man's World

Winter’s on the way it seems.  Last night saw a massive thunder, lightening and hail storm and this morning was the first morning I considered putting the light on to read my book while I did my rolling.  Ho hum.  At least I won’t have to get up before daylight in January…! Here’s the links [...]

Here’s this weekend’s links. Melissa McEwan has been doing an interesting set of articles about the Vanuatu people recently.  The Vanuatu live on an island which is not abandoned (Jamie, That Paleo Guy, went on holiday there) but they do still live in a largely tribal and unwesterised way.  It’s interesting to read Melissa’s posts [...]

Tony Gentilcore has been doing some more Testosterone Nation articles recently and I particularly liked [...]

Here’s this weekend’s links. I was trying to find out a silly fact about RSI at work the other week (someone was jokingly trying to claim that the use of chopsticks by the Japanese and Chinese probably gives them a higher incidence of RSI – they weren’t serious, we were just all in a bit [...]

Here’s this weekend’s links. Alwyn Cosgrove brought a fantastic new study to everyone’s attention.  The study was looking at training and detraining effects of the resistance vs. endurance program on body composition, body size, and physical performance in young men.  What would you expect?  The resistance training benefits stick with you, even after 24 weeks [...]
