I have a quick youtube video for you today that guest expert John Barban
made for us.

weight gain that can include a lot of fat?

P.S. I haven't mentioned John before but he's a good guy. He wrote a
thought provoking book on ideal body proportions that I read over the

If you don't know her you might know her boyfriend A-Rod of the Yankees
who was also training there at the same time as me. It got me thinking....he probably
has the exact shoulder to waist ratio that subconsciously attract Ms. Wilson to him.
(Or maybe it's his personality, millions of dollars or a combination of all three :)
