It’s been said that you shouldn’t rely on motivation, but rather discipline, because motivation is fleeting, and being disciplined will keep you on top of your game even when motivation is lacking.
I agree with this statement, and often times you will find that starting doesn’t come from motivation, but rather motivation comes after you start.
However, sometimes we all need a little jumpstart in the moment to get us going, and there’s nothing wrong with that.
“How much does a barbell weigh?” To those of us who are into lifting, the answer to this question might seem like common knowledge. But to those out there who are brand new to this gym life, this is something that they may not know or have taken into consideration when figuring out how much…
The idea of working out at home can be a very enticing one. Not having to travel to and from, no crowds, and having your own space can be enough to make you want to cancel your gym membership and start working out in your garage, basement, or even right there in your living room….
I think many of us at some level know that working out and exercising is something that should be incorporated into our lifestyles. But I also think that there are many people out there who don’t know where to start, see exercising as something too large to get into at the current point in their…
It’s given me that commercial gym feel in the convenience and comfort of my own garage gym.
It’s held up to the elements thus far from being kept in a cold garage and only has minor scuffing on the shaft around the area where it sits in the cups of the barbell stand on my rack.
I train in a garage gym, and I really like that this doesn’t take up a huge amount of space, and is also very easy to move around as long as there aren’t any plates stacked anywhere on it.

But with all of these flavors to choose from, how do we avoid option overload and choose a protein powder that both tastes good and provides us with a quality protein source?
That is what I’m hoping to help you do by trying different protein powders one by one and offering some info on them as well as my own personal opinion.
In this article, I am going to be talking about Optimum Nutrition Whey Protein Double Rich Chocolate.
This is a protein powder brand that I expect many people to be familiar with and seems to be very popular.
Protein is responsible for helping us recover from our training and build the muscle tissue we work so hard for.
Protein also benefits beyond just helping us recover and see results from what we do in the gym.
Protein is also involved in bone health, carrying important nutrients through our bloodstream and helping to strengthen our immune system.
Another perk of protein is its effect on satiety and helping us feel full after eating protein-rich foods. This comes in handy for anyone who might be trying to lose or maintain their weight, as eating foods high in protein can help us control our appetite by helping us feel fuller for longer.

As stated, this is a whey protein powder and it comes in a very large variety of flavors to choose from.
