TrillAesthetics - Nutrition, training & healthy lifestyle

Have you ever felt like you need a break from training? After many years lifting weights, kicking ass on the mats and the ring, pounding hammers, medicine balls, and other fun pieces of equipment to the floor my body started feeling tired, lots of times I got injured from all of those fun but brutal exercises. Right after my 29th birthday, the doctors told me that I had to stop the lifting and the pounding if I want to make it to 40 years old with my original knees, Did I listened? of course not! Just two months after that visit I got an ACL injury , very common for an athlete my age, and in my case needed surgery, so there I was angry all the time because all I wanted to do was keep on training. THE WIFE INTRODUCES YOGA 6 weeks before my surgery my wife asked me to join her on one of her Yoga classes since I was not lifting or even throwing a punch to anything I said yes. At first, I was like any other dude trying to look cool doing Yoga posses thinking t...

All right, before you guys start all about veganism and why you are never stopping eating meat and stuff like that, please read this first. I am not vegan, at least not 100%, but for a while, I have had a hard time keeping my weight as I wanted, in fact, I actually gained 10 pounds in a three month period out of nothing, or so I believed, the truth was that the fact that I was eating meat did not make me gain weight, but the meats and animal products I have chosen help me to gain weight consistently. When I was heavier I made a few mistakes, the first one was that I was eating all kinds of meat and animal products, without taking in consideration that meat is composed of two major nutrients, protein and fat, everything looks alright so far but the problem is some types of fat can actually kill you like saturated fats, some studies even show that saturated fats decrease muscle mass and create more fat instead. The second mistake is that I was eating the cheap meat tha...
