If you think we are so advanced, so tech savvy, so head of our time, you are too in love with your iphone. Paleo means going natural. Eating things that we have always eaten, things that our bodies have evolved over more than several days to eat since we started this journey with the dinosaurs. Then we started making chemicals and we thought they would help, we thought that they would make things better, even easier. Well Ive got news for you; it ain't gonna happen. If you decide to read these Muscle and Fatness or Huge Guy or Sexy Girl "fitness" magazines you should notice that there are more advertisements then there is informative information. Promises by products, by companies, by "scientists", by people, that we want so badly to believe. (When you see fantastic claims — that's generally what they are.") How bad? So bad we will experiment with our bodies and foreign chemicals that can screw things up for the rest of your life. How bad? So bad we will die for it.

Here is another good look at it from Mark Twights perspective of not only supplements but globo gyms and hard work.
During a recent trip Maximus and I visited a supplement store to marvel at the various OTC products promising a variety of results. One assured the user of "skin-tearing muscle pumps and road-map vascularity." While I am certain I don't want my skin to tear, I know that one consequence of consistent hard work and attention to dietary detail is increased vascularity - when muscular contraction shuts down blood flow within the muscle the pipes move to the outside to maintain a constant supply of oxygen, nutrients, etc. But if one isn't willing to do the work or pay the attention he (it's usually a male that falls for this shit) could simply buy a product to "achieve" the "same" result.
---Josh V was willing, did the work, and the fat pipes are a consequence of fitness -- not the objective.
