It’s about that time of the year that I have to make quite a few changes. Time to improve this website and learn a few things. Career changes are coming soon too so I’ll update everybody soon. In the meantime, enjoy this great picture from Thailand.
Yes, I know. It’s been awhile since I’ve posted anything but you’ll see some articles pretty soon. If anything this whole site will get a pretty extensive overhaul. While the overhaul is going on you might as well enjoy 70% off of Skora Running shoes! I’m not even getting paid to advertise this at all…
Not everybody is a runner. There are a lot of people out there who hate running and would do any other type of cardio activity. I am one of those people. I didn’t always hate running however. I grew up playing soccer so I had to like it. As I grew up I started…
What are Macros? A lot of bodybuilders and trainers are telling their clients to pay attention to their macro nutrients or their macro ratios without explaining what that is. Most trainers over explain this concept and assume that all that information was necessary for the client to truly grasp it. What most fitness professionals…
There are quite a few great trainers out there who not only motivate their clients to go past their limits but also make it a welcoming environment. There are some trainers however who have knowledge down but can’t really grasp how to change their motivation styles to meet each clients needs. Why would you…
For some reason when I see pancakes, the first phrase that comes out of my mouth is “meh, no thanks”. It’s not because they taste bad, have a weird texture, or that I even hate them. Heck, I think it’s un-American if you don’t eat pancakes once in awhile. The main reason why I…
Have you ever walked into a library and the person at the counter behind the front door immediately greeted you with a genuinely welcoming smile? Have you ever even looked forward to going to a library? I did and so I went. Multonomah Whiskey Library was probably the only bar I’ve been to where the…
I sprinted, I lifted, and I jogged in these Skora Core shoes and let’s just say “WOW”. I’ve always tried to run in shoes like the Nike Frees and other stability shoes and I was never a fan. There were a lot of reasons why I didn’t like them but the main one was Piriformis…
Last time I was this sore was pre-season training before my high school soccer season. As I’m writing this blog my left quads are flexing due to some involuntary muscle spasms. Yes, that leg workout killed me and all I really want to do is go on a run with my new Skora Running shoes.…
While I recover mentally from the thought of my weak willpower to keep my vegetarian lifestyle going, I had to figure out a way to not only keep my posts relevant but also entertaining. What would be the best way to fuel my attention-cravings and my desire to get back into shape? I’m going to…
The bacon glistened, wrapped around the steak that was charred on the outside but nice and juicy as she cut through it. This was torture. He smiled as slowly chewed on each bite, looking at me as if to mock me. In my hand was a kale salad with cucumbers, strawberries, and on the side…
Can’t wait for my cheat day.
I usually don’t post recipes on TheActiveBaconNut.com but come on, imagine these dipped into bacon ice cream.
Day 2 #bacon2broccoli
It was my 15th non-stop pull-up and my 3rd set. I knew I could do more but I had 7 other exercises to do in two hours. I looked at the clock and smiled because this was my job and for the time being I was happy. I weighted 182 lbs, I was able to…
