Dear Mark,
Been eating primal for a few months now, loving it, but I just started doing some workouts and the soreness that comes a day or two later is just killing me. Does it get better? Maybe I’m doing them wrong?

If you go out and jog the same two miles at the same pace, day after day, you will never become faster, stronger or have greater endurance. If you stop lifting weights when your muscles start to burn, you won't feel sore on the next day and you will not become stronger. All improve ...

Last week found me kicking the laundry basket down the hallway with my foot. No, I’m not making my household chores into sports (although there’s an i ...

I think there’s a big difference between wanting to get a massage and having to get a massage. Personally, I’m a huge fan of wanting to get a massage. But having to get a massage? Not so much.
