The point is that girls are fragile little things that @DangerousDUCK needs to protect from their own inherent ignorance of things outside of the kitchen. So, he'll be there to help him with his expert knowledge, expert because he claims its expert.
Clear? He's here to help them, because they are incapable of helping themselves. Oh, and he's begging for adds, so it's obviously so he can creep.
negging for adds and nudz!

lol.

Awesome troll post, I think your technique is familiar and the d-bag pose reminds me of an MO I've seen before so I don't think you are really new here. BRAVO, boy, you are an elite troll and I bow to your greatness.0

If she's a girl, she lied about her age and should probably be on a site like sparkteens.yopeeps025 wrote: »

Hair will sprout in strange places, and you'll get a little acne. There's a good chance you might need to get a bra. Eventually, you'll get a job, move out on your own, go to college.
At that point, you'll have a little experience, a few miles on you, and a sense of self respect that would cause you to be offended by being referred to as a child.
One day kiddo, one day.
Check her age?
Oh man, well I must thank you for the laugh of the day. I am continually amazed as to how crazy people are.

http://startingstrength.com/
Probably the best site/author on the foundations of lifting on the net and widely quoted/used by virtually everyone seriously into lifting...
Also, I would note that most guys and girls-er, gals?- in the gym have not a damn clue as to what to do, so this is equal opportunity advice....at least women seem to be up to admitting as much while men will go one yr after yr working nonsensical programs that don't have much in the way of perceptible results.
Startingstrength is a great website an book, Mark Rippetoe really goes into great depth about form and technique, you really have to love the subject, not everyone will go that in-depth I think.
I'm not sure I would recommend everyone pick up weight lifting without providing the indepth resources they need to prevent a lot of injuries. And since I was terrified of killing myself and having no clue where to start, I read everything I could. Not doing so is rather reckless...
I agree to a certain extent but very few people will read a 350page tome on barbell training, It would be nice considering how dangerous it can be but very few if any at most gyms will be that well informed
I never did myself, but read a lot of the info on his site, etc.
You are aware his site does/has more to offer than a sales pitch for the book you are referring to, right?0 -

If people are offended I don't care as that wasn't the intention of the post. Like them or not I'll give my opinions an observations on a different topic next, I haven't done because I wanted to be able to respond to the posts here.
I think what bothers me the most is that you don't know the word "and" has D at the end. Just an observation based on my experience here.
way to contribute...

The manual, yes. Terms and conditions, not so much. They all say more or less the same thing. However, when using something that can burn you as much as this thread is (though your blatant ignorance is definitely shielding you), then it's wise to read the instruction first.0 -
A woman lifting weights is incredibly sexy, not just to watch but the knowledge she is lifting to improve herself.0

I would break mine a lot at the gym honestly- how those fitness/figure girls do it- I have no idea- they all have long nails.
I can't be bothered- for reals- 1.) maintaining fake nails is to expensive and 2.) I chip my nails from my aggressive typing within days of painting them. SO all in all- to much work- and I can't maintain them with my hobbies- bike- lifting- sewing- to much damn work.
I mentioned something about 2.5 hours ago on my wall and guessed 10 pages.How long til this thread gets shut down, anybody have a guess-timate?0 -

I'm referring to the book because its one I have read myself and learnt a lot from, I personally like how in-depth he goes into the subject but I also know its not for everyone's tastes.
