Here is Some Holiday Bullshit From NYSC
Deck the Halls with NYSC Bullshi’t! I can’t see the humor in this because my sense of smell is overwhelmed with bullshi’t. I guess it’s true what they say about your senses. I can’t care less about their distasteful advertisement. Howard Stern has done that for years and it’s worked. What bothers me is their […]
The Perfect Thanksgiving Turkey
The best thing about Thanksgiving is that it can be a healthy, delicious, filling meal. Get rid of the mashed potatoes, bread, cranberry and you’re good to go. A buttery turkey with gravy, Brussels sprouts, pumpkin and mixed green vegetables makes for a brilliant Thanksgiving dinner. I’m not going to put up a recipe this […]

It’s a shame because calorie counting is unscientific, misleading and even dangerous to some people. There are plenty of studies actually showing problems with the calorie counting theory. Hopefully this bullshi’t can die in the near […]
Is Muscle Maker Grill Healthy?
After the gym, I would love nothing more than to go to a place that has everything I need to properly fuel up after a hard workout. Unfortunately, Muscle Maker Grill was a huge disappointment. Not only is the food dry and tasteless, but they claim that they’re “healthy”. Here is an illustration of why […]
Is Walking Exercise?
Is walking really exercise? The short answer is NO. Walking is transportation. Very slow, but convenient (and free) transportation. Unfortunately, many doctors recommend a “brisk” walk for exercise or weight loss. In fact, even NYC recommends walking for health and weight loss. Before you get the wrong idea here, I’m not bashing walking. Walking is […]
