best thing ever

Two of the best things ever in one post
Alright, let's get this blog abloggin':

Google is now hosting Men's Health magazine from 2006-2008.



New to Men's Health? Here's a summary of every issue in the last 40 years:

1. Cover: Black and white photo of an in-shape guy wearing a clingy black shirt set over read Grotesque logo. Single splash of yellow used to draw attention to baited headline.
2. Eat healthy: Almons, beans, spinach, dairy (but not too much), instant oatmeal, eggs (mostly whites), turkey, peanut butter, olive oil (in everything you eat), whole grains (in every other thing you eat), whey protein powder (soy is bad for men) and raspberries.
3. Workout: Progressive overload (incrementally increased weight for 5 sets of decreasing reps), German Volume Training (10 sets of 10 reps to failure) or circuit training.
4. Something: causes cancer
5. Women: like mature guys that aren't married to their jobs, are spontaneous, healthy and wear the same deodorant as their dad (Old Spice).
6. Toys: you should buy them. Typically fancy cars, new running shoes and whatever Apple puts out.

Men's Health is a very comforting read—it's filled with random, highlighted facts and overflowing with health tips—it reminds me of home in over-zealously-healthy Santa Cruz.

Next best thing?

The Sky planter. I swear I had this idea last year, and here it is! Now I want an herb garden suspended from my ceiling.
