Disappointing. They kept showing all those tourist landmarks and then didn't climb up any of them.

The question is, what the hell kind of gym installs a non-adjustable rim that's not 10 feet high?

Nota bene: Journal log changed to "a fast and explosive donkey!" Inspired by the introduction to the paper "Effects of Strength Training on Muscle Fiber Types and Size: consequences for athletes training for high-intensity sport," by JL Andersen and P Aagaard, which states, "Thus, both coaches and scientists know that it is not possible to turn a donkey into a racehorse by means of exercise and training. Hard work will, at the most, turn the donkey into a fast and explosive donkey!"
My friends, I may not be a racehorse. But I will be god damned if I can't turn myself into a fast and explosive donkey. HEE HAW!

« on: October 27, 2010, 10:05:51 am »no way man, unnecessary insulin spikes from candy/sugars is just going to put fat on you.. look at how lots of natural BB'rs train, of course they go on their bulks, but the good one's rarely eat junky sugars throughout the day, they keep it to complex carbs and then keep the simple sugars for the PWO shakes etc..
candy/sugars is holding your body composition back for sure, it really screws with your insulin, you end up storing much more fat than if you replace those simple sugars with something healthier, like a glass of milk, some kind of protein mix, etc.
getting your caloric surplus from junk sugars = bad, getting it from complex carbs/protein and fats is better, it really comes down to the insulin spikes and how those in excess end up turning you into a jaba the hut.
peace manYes, it's cool. As long as you're getting enough protein and fruits and veggies, it's fine for the surplus to come from cookies and chocolate and other things packed with <gasp!> HFCS. Just monitor yourself and if you're getting too fat, cut back on the sugary stuff some.

LOL, I hadn't even seen adarq's response. Well, if he wants to fight, we can fight. I should perhaps moderate my comment by saying that I'm not advocating for the ENTIRE surplus to come from junk food. But it's not going to kill him to get some of the surplus from it, especially if he's having a hard time eating enough to reach a surplus at all.

« on: October 27, 2010, 09:30:47 am »I can't eat too much so I eat a lot of sugars and stuff and carbs to be on a caloric + while strength training... is that cool?
I mean, I eat protein - eggs, chicken, fish, protein shakes but I also eat cookies and chocolate and stuff like that just to be on a caloric surplus...
I kind of want to gain weight this winter and then in the spring lose the body fat (because I have a lot to lose).

« on: October 26, 2010, 10:46:31 pm »I didn't notice it until second period. By the time I got a chance to go home, I was almost out anyway and I was already feeling better. The whole day was kinda strange.
Also, while I'm talking about school. I have to write an essay on subcultures for English 1010. I've been allowed to use this forum, so I may be sending some PM's out with questions of your opinions and such and I'll be reading through everything I can for the next few weeks. That is of course if you are willing. I'll make sure I ask permission before using any info from journals or posts before I use it.
Word, that actually happened to me at work last week, except in reverse. Felt blah in the morning and just worse and worse as the day went on. By the time I was full-blown sick it was like half an hour before normal leaving time and I had a shit ton of work so I just stayed for a while more. Then I went to the gym but didn't do anything but stretch and roll and by the time I got home I was shaking and had chills and a fever. My point is, that sucks man.
Also, cool about that paper. This is an interesting subculture, for sure.

Yeah, I have a bit of hypermobility in my knees: they go back a bit too far when I extend them fully, as in, you know, an explosive triple extension. The extra poundage just got to me last night, I think. SI joint is hypermobile, too. I can put my palms flat on the ground with my legs straight. That doesn't seem to affect anything, though, just saying.
