T-Nation has been great for me in this regard. Your ordinary trainer might be exposed to 20 different clients in a week, and a typical [...]

I got this email last night and thought you’d all (or at least everyone who doesn’t live in New York) would enjoy it:
A man in Topeka, Kansas decided to write a book about Churches around the

On an average day, I get between 75 and 100 emails - probably 1/3 of which are random inquiries about training, nutrition, supplementation, corrective exercise - you name it. Let’s assume that each email takes three minutes to read and answer. That’s 75 minutes per day answering random emails - doable, although it [...]

Q: A PT recommended me to do foam rolling on the IT band for the clicking sound on my knee. I’ve been rolling for quite some time but the clicking hasn’t gone yet. I read your article on the subject at T-Nation and figured you’d be a good person to ask.
