Creatine For Endurance   "Creatine has typically been promoted for its benefits for strength and
power athletes.  Interesting to see this new study indicating that it
may have benefits for endurance sports, through decreasing
the production of lactate."—Chris Highcock, Conditioning Research

The Danger Of Being A Woman    "I once coached a girl who could barely squat or bend down without her
knees touching each other. She had learned to keep her legs together
because it’s the “womanly thing to do” when wearing a skirt or dress.
After all, a womanly woman doesn’t want to have a Britney
Spears-like-hooha incident. The unfortunate result is that her muscles
adapted to this chronic application
of poor mechanics to the point of having non-existant external hip
rotators, shortened groin muscles, a lack of hamstring musculature, and a
lack of quad development. I’ve seen women who literally push their
knees together as a brace for standing up in the same way that your
grandparents use a cane."—Justin Lascek, 70s Big
