This myth is bogus. And I am going to tell you why right now...

I am not going to lie. If I were an athlete, I would be kicked off the team. Because of my fear, it has taken me 3 months to fully get over my broken ankle. It just makes me think of Terrel Owens when he played for the Eagles.
He broke his ankle, or maybe it was a sprain, but it took him maybe three weeks before he was playing again. That is truly incredible. Being an Eagles fan, I think I...
This is not a joke, a piece of equipment, nor a magic diet... the powerful combination that is spoken of is simply diet and weight training.
