Fitness Questions Answered, Ask Doug is back .. :)

I’ve taken a long break from the internet, and honestly, it’s done me a lot of good. Sometimes it’s good to get away from something for a while and come back refreshed - and that was definitely the case for me.

Anyway,  I was reading through some of my old fitness posts today and it made me remember how much I actually enjoyed answering peoples’ questions and helping them out.

I just reconnected with some of the people I helped on Facebook, and I think I just may have made a difference.. Cool, right? Ha.

So, I’m bringing back the Ask Doug section out of retirement - at least for the time being.  This blog has changed direction a few times, but it’s time for me to get back to basics and write more about what I know.

• Losing fat quickly
• Building Strength
• Designing Quality Programs for yourself based on what you’re trying to do. (ie, look better, lose fat, build muscle, gain strength, etc)
• Preventing injuries

I know there’s already probably too much info on fitness out there, both on the internet and everywhere else, but I still get questions from friends all the time about tons of things related to fitness.  And, in my always humble and objective opinion, I feel I’m better than most people at analyzing and addressing specific, real world fitness related questions.

Feel free to write in your specific questions, and be sure to be specific.  Details like your current weight, current routine / program, your age, gender, injury history, and your experience with weights will help me deliver an answer that will actually help your current situation.

Anyway, hopefully I’ll be posting something up here soon, and, if the question is particularly good, I may even throw up a nice audio post like I was doing last year.

Until then, I’ll leave you with this post from the archives that I just sent to a buddy of mine with regards to approaching splits in your strength training program.
