Tip of the Day

You Can Cut Calroies the Easy Way:

You can improve your power-to-weight ratio without training any harder by drinking less of everything except water. According to a study of 46,576 American adults, during the past 37 years the number of calories adults consume from beverages such as soda, juice and booze has nearly doubled, to an additional 222 calories per day. That's enough to pack on about half a pound a week or 26 pounds a year. And vice versa, eliminating those calories should reduce 26 pounds a year.

disclaimer: that last line was mine, the rest was totally plagerized from Bicycle magazine, Sept 2008, p 36!
