  1. Kulap, it's impossible to 'spot reduce' fat. Which means you can't lose fat specifically on your belly or any other one place. It's all tied together and once you're losing fat, it's slowing melting away from all over. Normally the belly will be the last place where the fat will disappear from.

     

    I don't know what that list of exercises is from but it's likely they are the best at strengthening ab muscles rather than losing fat. Or it's straight up women's magazine style pseudoscience.

  2. Matt was absolutely right about Vince Carter. Sure, he has a reputation for having a bad attitude but it's totally baseless. It comes from a couple of things. First, during a play-off series in Toronto, in the morning of game 7 he attended his own college graduation in North Carolina, then in the evening he missed the game-winning shot. Sports media spun this into some bullshit about how he tired himself out needlessly and doesn't care about winning enough. His second 'gaffe' was admitting that he didn't try as hard as he could after he asked for a trade in Toronto. I don't think it's a big deal but I guess 'sports media' expects players to be complete psychopaths with no interests outside of basketball and deviant sexual acts(the only common thing between NBA superstars and ESPN 'personalities') like Jordan or Kobe. This is the reason Chris Bosh gets bullied by the media as well.

     

    Another reason why the media dislikes Vince Carter is probably that he got tagged as 'the next Michael Jordan' even before he stepped on an NBA court and guess what - he wasn't the next Michael Jordan. I suppose the media might feel some resentment that he 'didn't live up to his potential' and 'let them down.'

     

    Anyway, these are a bunch of words about Vince Carter. I hope you enjoy them earwolf comedy fans.

     

    Peace.
