If you remember, not too long ago, I wrote an article about Bill Phillips mentioning he was bringing back EAS.

I was tagged in a story by my good friend, Kevin Grech of EvolutionOfBodybuilding.net, that seemed to be about 2017 Arnold Classic champion Cedric McMmillan. I knew Cedric was out of the 2022 Arnold Classic, but I wasn’t really sure why. To be honest, I didn’t really care, and I know that as a member of the media, I should.

I’ve always been a fan of Victor Martinez, and when I would travel to New Jersey on business, I would always make it a point (even if it were out of my way) to drive to Edgewater to eat at his Muscle Maker Grill location.

Let me just say that Phil Heath is looking absolutely awesome. He seems to be training with real intensity and loving his time in the gym. Before delving into his physique or his level of training, I think it’s very important to note that he’s having fun. Whenever you talk about a living legend in bodybuilding, I think where they are, mentally, is huge.

CoQ10, also known as Coenzyme Q10, is a chemical made by the body that is present in every cell. It is synthesized by the body and stored in the mitochondria (the powerhouse) of the cell. CoQ10 is responsible for producing around 95% of the energy in the body by promoting ATP production. It’s common for people to look to use CoQ10 supplements if they need more energy throughout the day as well as other health-forward benefits.

Unfortunately, this type of thinking generally ends badly for the individual, and there are severe consequences to their lack of prioritization with their health.

If you follow my content, you’d know that this is a topic I’ve spoken about in the past and one that I really feel is incredibly important to all businesses. I recently read an article about the DoorDash CEO telling all his employees, including the c-suite executives, that they will all be making at least one delivery each month regardless of their position and role in the company. Personally, I think this is brilliant and good for him for enforcing such a policy, and I believe all supplement brand CEOs should follow suit.
