I take pride in being a gym rat, but when I’m deep into a consistent training routine, convenience often wins out over carefully cooked meals. When I’m already dedicating hours each week to the gym, the last thing I want to do with my downtime is spend more time prepping, cooking, and cleaning. As a result, I end up relying heavily on protein shakes and bars to hit my macro goals.All of that is to say: I’m a fan of shortcuts. So when I was offered the chance to try a week’s worth of Factor meals to complement my training,…

You have come a long way, and you’re still learning and growing. Be thankful for the lessons. Take them and make the best of things today. For my 18th birthday, many moons ago, my grandfather on my mom’s side gave me four lightly-used flannel shirts that he no longer needed. The shirts were barely worn and in great shape; my grandfather said he thought they would look great on me. Unfortunately, I thought they were odd gifts at the time and I wasn’t thankful.

But the man’s blatant racism is also impossible to ignore, especially since it often finds its way onto the pages of his stories. One of the most notorious is The Horror at Red Hook, which follows Detective Thomas Malone as he uncovers a sinister cult in the titular Brooklyn neighborhood.The Ballad of Black Tom is a retelling of…
