Author: Klint NewtonSurely by now we have all heard of the placebo effect and know how it affects mind and muscle. I wrote a decent post about this that can be found on my blog. The placebo effect is usually found in the in medical practice. It’s when a patient is given a substance, aka “A Sugar Pill,” and told that the substance is an actual drug. When the drug is ingested, the patient is aware of the drug’s healing abilities, believes that he will be healed because of the medicine, and is healed. Upon further investigation, we realize that it wasn’t the sugar pill that healed the person, so the question remains, “What healed him?” I wasn’t the sugar pill that healed him, he healed himself. The human brain is simply amazing with its power. It created your body, and it can heal it. What really healed the individual was his strong, unwavering belief that he would be healed. Even though he thought it was the pill healing him, he believed he would be healed. There is an opposite reaction to this called the Nocebo Effect. This is quite simply the opposite of the Placebo Effect in that someone believes they won’t be healed, regardless of what medicine...more

Shoulder muscles can quite easily be neglected especially because of the huge fuss over ripped abs and biceps. Ladies will want to flatten their tummies and tighten their asses and thighs but rarely will you see a lady wanting to develop her shoulder muscles, unless they are professional body builders. Shoulder muscles are very visible and can alter the way you look quite greatly. You can have a very well toned body, but the fact that your shoulders are weak and sluggish will greatly negate the whole look. So you may be working so hard on your abs, triceps and biceps, all for them to be toned down by your sagging shoulders. If your shoulders sag naturally, pumping them will make them look a lot stronger and more attractive. It may even take someone a third look before they realize that you actually have sagging shoulders. Since most exercises involve the use of the arms to some extent, your shoulder muscles are used quite a lot. This means that the stronger they are, the easier it will be for you to do those exercises that involve them. So here is how you can build up baby boomers.First and foremost, the workout won't be effective if your diet is a drag! Not literally, if your diet...more
