Georges St-Pierre: One On One With An MMA UFC Legend

Everyone has a dream. Most often, it’s tales of rags to riches that give people inspiration, driving them to be like a heroic protagonist. For anyone whose dream involves becoming the Welterweight Champion of the UFC, there’s one man who knows exactly what it takes. Rising to the top with an already soaring career, Georges St-Pierre, also referred to as GSP, is the ultimate example of a winning warrior and a living legend.

Growing up in the humble parish municipality of Saint-Isidore, Que., St-Pierre’s early life was far from easy. Simple things like going to school provided big challenges for the young fighter, forcing him to defend himself as early as the second grade. “To tell you the truth, I was really concerned back in the day about my ego and my image,” St-Pierre admits during a telephone interview. “Even though I knew I was going to get beat up when somebody was trying Read more

Training Your Noodle

When it comes to staying in shape, most of us go to the gym. Whether it’s lifting weights or going for a jog, the benefits of working out result in the maintenance of our muscles as we look and feel good. But if there is one thing people forget about, it’s the most important biological structure in the human body – the brain.

We don’t realize that there are also ways to exercise the brain, and thanks to a new computer software, it’s now easier than ever. Unlike a simple game of a number conundrum like Sudoku, the NeuroActive Program® stimulates more than just a few brain functions. With 22 easy-to-do exercises, users are able to improve 16 separate areas. “Your brain is complex and requires more than playing a crossword puzzle,” explains Dr. Stephane Bergeron, the software’s developer. “You also want to work on your concentration, reflexes and
auditory memory.” Read more
