1. Are you a guy or do you know one close to you over the age of 35?
2. Have you or he looked at your/his bare chest lately?
3. If so... did you see them?...The dreaded....
"Manboobs"?
Obviously if you are female this is not an issue. But for us men, "gynaecomastia", often jokingly referred to as manboobs (we can thank "Seinfeld" for that) is anything but funny.
From this point on, I'll refer to it as "MB" if that's okay by you.
MB is not an age thing. It can occur at almost any time in life. However, for those of us over 35, it is more common.
This is just one of the many symptoms of "andropause", or "male menopause."
When you age your testosterone levels decline...and more than that the testosterone gets "weaker" due to an imbalance between it and estrogen.
When you combine that with our modernized "estrogen-rich" environment that Dr. Holly Lucille frequently lectures on, you have a problem.
A big MB problem.
MB is associated with lack of drive (you know what I'm talking about guys) and excess bellyfat due to the estrogen.
Even more serious: Excess estrogen has been positively linked to prostate cancer.
Yep. MBs are not so funny after all.
Check out Dr. Lucille's NaturaPause Audios. There is an entire audio dedicated to male menopause and natural solutions that really work.
Most do not work worth a darn.
Hers does.

I just received this article from Jon Benson and HAD to share it with you.
It really opened my eyes to what is possible.
Let me know what you think, okay?

How To Gain Muscle And Burn
Bodyfat At The Same Time
by Jon Benson
What is your "big dream?"
I have two:
-- To make an impact on the lives of over 10M people before I die;
-- To have a family that's mobile so I can live in many places.
Not bad, right?
Want to know a "third" dream of mine? One that I saw become a reality a few years ago?
To gain muscle AND burn bodyfat all at the same time.
It's like a pipe-dream that somehow worked its way through the pipes and into my gym.
It is not easy, granted, but you can do it.
Almost anyone can do it.
You just have to train and eat in a very specific way.
Listen: You do NOT want to just "burn bodyfat" or god-forbid "lose-weight"... that will not give you the body you want.
You absolutely MUST shape your muscles, tighten and tone, and burn bodyfat.
And you can do it at the same time.
Most pros disagree with me. They think it is metabolically impossible to gain muscle while in a state of low-calorie dieting.
They are wrong.
Here's an article I wrote on this topic. I hope you enjoy it.
To save you time, I put a link to the online complete version of the article below...
- - - - -
I remember a friendly argument with my co-author of Fit Over 40 Tom Venuto. It all started when I told Tom how I was eating and training for my last peak. A peak is where you lower your bodyfat and try to maintain as much muscle mass as possible.
"There's just no way I could ever get in shape eating and training like that," says Tom. "Sure you could man...what are you, a mutant?" Tom fires back, then me, then Tom....and so it goes. (I really didn't call Tom a mutant. That was creative liberty.)
So why are so many fitness pros like Tom freaked out about my training and nutrition plan? Simple: I claim it burns fat while building muscle at the same time. Every time I read an article by some doctor or expert claiming it's "biologically impossible" to gain lean muscle mass on a hypocaloric diet (a diet low in calories) I just laugh.
I do more than make claims--I have proved this to be true many times. I've had my bodyfat hydrostatically measured during several peaks. In all but one I showed an increase of muscle mass and a decrease of bodyfat during a 12-16 week period. The one time I didn't show an increase in muscle mass when was I was training the most in the gym. That may not make sense right now, but it will in a moment.

The Secret to You...A Gift from the Secret Scrolls Movie
The Secret to You...A Gift from the Secret Scrolls Movie: "The Secret has been passed down through the ages... coveted, hidden, lost, stolen, bought for vast sums of money, and known by some of the most exceptional people who ever lived: Plato, Galileo, Da Vinci, Beethoven, Edison, and Einstein, to name but a few. Everything is possible, nothing is impossible. There are no limits. Whatever you can dream of can be yours, when you use The Secret."

Improvement
"If it isn't measured, it rarely and usually never, happens. Conditioning teaches you to gamble and hope you're the lucky one who improves with haphazard guesses to your growth. The power of prior habits blurs progress into deceptive shades of gray. However, if you do measure your development, you can, very simply, improve it. One minuscule victory every day accumulates an avalanche of greatness." Scott Sonnon.
As with everything in life without some form of metrics it is difficult to measure improvement.
