I’m always a little surprised when training in different gyms and people park themselves next to me and start staring. Or when I’m deadlifting and they stand right in front of me while I’m trying to pull. Learn your manners. If you must gawk, be discreet. If you want to know why someone is doing something a certain way, go ask. Don’t be an asshole and silently criticize when you really have no idea what their program is. If you see someone doing something completely redunkulous and moronic, go grab your camera and send it in. We love that stuff!

We were in Costa Mesa, California this past weekend for a Starting Strength Seminar and took advantage of some downtime Friday afternoon before we clocked in. We had just finished our meal at the Beach Pit BBQ and chilled a bit in the California sun. Getting a chance to relax on these seminar weekends is a treat. We ate very well in Newport Beach. Excellent goat cheese burgers at  Crow Burger Kitchen (along with Flying Dog Raging Bitch beer); ribs at Rib Company in Newport Beach; and back to Crow Burger on Sunday night for another burger. We missed In-n-out this trip, we’ll make sure that doesn’t happen again.

Eat more of it. This tasty chunk of double smoked Belgian bacon came from Bunzels Old Fashioned Meat Market.
