Let me just say that Phil Heath is looking absolutely awesome. He seems to be training with real intensity and loving his time in the gym. Before delving into his physique or his level of training, I think it’s very important to note that he’s having fun. Whenever you talk about a living legend in bodybuilding, I think where they are, mentally, is huge.

CoQ10, also known as Coenzyme Q10, is a chemical made by the body that is present in every cell. It is synthesized by the body and stored in the mitochondria (the powerhouse) of the cell. CoQ10 is responsible for producing around 95% of the energy in the body by promoting ATP production. It’s common for people to look to use CoQ10 supplements if they need more energy throughout the day as well as other health-forward benefits.

I’m not sure why, but Americans refuse to focus on their health for some reason. They seem to have this “Superman” ego that nothing bad can happen to them, and if it does, they’ll be just fine. Unfortunately, this type of thinking generally ends badly for the individual, and there are severe consequences to their lack of prioritization with their health.

Just recently a new directive from the NPC International Office made it clear that only competitors 18 and over could compete. This decision rocked the fitness industry, as teenage competitors have long competed at the local, regional, and national level. The crown jewel of events for this age range has always been the NPC Teen Nationals.

If you follow my content, you’d know that this is a topic I’ve spoken about in the past and one that I really feel is incredibly important to all businesses. I recently read an article about the DoorDash CEO telling all his employees, including the c-suite executives, that they will all be making at least one delivery each month regardless of their position and role in the company. Personally, I think this is brilliant and good for him for enforcing such a policy, and I believe all supplement brand CEOs should follow suit.

It’s a no-brainer that the brain is a vital organ, but have you ever thought about what you can do to keep it healthy, such as brain healthy foods? The thought probably never crossed your mind, right? After all, most people only tend to focus on things after something terrible happens to them.

The world of bodybuilding and fitness mourns the passing of one of its most outspoken, most beloved competitors, coaches, and influencers. It’s hard to put Bostin in a category because he was really into so many different things. Whether he was prepping people or competing, he was always all about muscle and the pursuit of it. In many ways, he could be compared to the late, great Dan Duchaine.

Kevin Levrone, King Kamali, Jay Cutler, Dexter Jackson, the list can go on and on. There’s so many guys who the fans would love to see take the stage in a competition that would put the best Masters competitors on one stage. These would all be real comebacks. So many guys will take a season or two off, then “come back,” but that’s not quite what I’m talking about here. When I say that the Masters Olympia could be about comebacks galore, I’m talking about guys who have long hung them up. I’m talking about greats who ruled physique-based sports but moved on to other parts of their careers.

Rowing is an amazing cardiovascular exercise that has added benefits of acting as a full-body workout. Unfortunately, not many of us own a boat where we can hit the water and sing Row Row Row Your Boat for exercise. But there’s good news! Some gyms out there have rowing machines. You can also purchase a rowing machine for your home.
