too much running chews up muscle? i didn't know that. but i don't think i could convince myself to walk for excerise. what about biking? i like to mountain bike a lot and once the weather improves around here (CT), i'll be going every other day.

should i focus on changing one thing at a time (cardio, weight training, diet) or change everything at once? like chaning my running schedule is easy; i just do it. but for weights and diet, i actually have to think about it before i do it. i guess i kind of answered my own question there.

Currently, I'm 6'3" and about 200lbs. I'm somewhat lean, i suppose. I'd post a pic if i had a camera. Normally, I'm pretty good wtih keeping my weight down and staying healthy, but over the last couple months, i was unable to work out because of a broken wrist, and now im really starting to see...

I'm more interested in the surfer-style flat chested look. So does this mean I should focus more on decline bench presses? What i want is for my outer and lower chest to look muscular, just to give me that "look." I suppose I should do incline, decline, flat, and flyes, but should I focus on any...

In the last 3 or 4 months, i have gained a lot of weight all over my (thighs, stomach, chest). I want to lose a lot of it or all of it, or at least enough so that I can gain muscle and at least look a little skinnier. What should I be eating? Currently, I work out whenever 3-4 days a week, and...
