  • A question to men and mostly women answer. Depends on the man, and give me Curvy everyday. However, there are a couple of definitions of curvy. Some women take the idea a bit too far. Big difference between curvy and overweight.
  • No, it's not illegal if both parties aren't informed, it depends on the state. New Jersey is what they call a one party state, meaning only one party has to consent to the recording. I'm sure they slipped something into your employment paperwork about recording conversations. Also, if they put a tone on the phone every…
  • I have a ton of them. Lugging around a gallon jug of bright yellow liquid. Not good. Not re-racking your weights. Dropping the weights. Really? We know you're a big muscle head, we get it, you have to prove you're a jerk too? Sitting on a machine endlessly texting. I need to finish my superset! How are these?
  • You can't push someone into healthier habits without the use of abject humiliation, which is probably better left for his friends to do than his spouse. It's difficult to have these conversations between husband and wife. To a much greater extreme, I tried to have a conversation like this with my ex-wife once. Read,…
  • You don't use the same amount of core stabilizing core muscles with a Smith Machine as you do with the free weights. It's a cheater. Stick to just the squats.
  • I've heard kettlebells are the bomb, a great workout. Keep going!
  • Yeah, my suggestion is DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT. Make sensible but delicious choices. (E mail me for the best places to eat. We go several times a year.) You will be there during the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival, which is fantastic. You walk, on average, 4 - 6 miles a day when you're in the park. You'll burn through 4,000…
  • When you first start working out, covered up. After a couple of months, less and less clothing. It's our natural inclination to show off our hard work. As to body temperature and moisture barriers, I'm sure the difference is negligible. The colder it is, the more calories you burn, but not by a lot.
  • Oh, I forgot to mention it, I work as a police officer when the fishing isn't good.
  • I'm from New Jersey as well. The Jersey Shore in fact. I worked in the town they film the show in, Seaside Heights. I fished there this weekend, but that's not me. I'm more a fan of the Jersey Shore's proudest son, Frankie 'The Answer' Edgar, the UFC Lightweight Champion of the world.
  • It would be tough, that's for certain. The math makes it tough to swallow. An pound of body fat is about 3,500 calories, so you need to consume 3,500 more calories more than you use in a day to gain a pound. Three pounds, or 10,500 calories in two days breaks down to more than 5,000 EXTRA calories a day. That is possible,…
  • Make friends, use this site. What works for me is setting goals; short, medium, and long term goals. My short term, or daily goal is to stay under my BMR and work out for at least 300 calories My medium term, or weekly goal is to work out 5 times this week and have only one cheat meal. My long term, or twelve week goal is…
  • There's a lot of speculation about the meaning of dreams with no definitive conclusions. The general consensus is it's just the subconscious working out the events of the day. I've never put much stock in it.
  • Absolutely. Like so many blogs here, my own included for the most part, it's only interesting to you, but it is interesting. You're a different person from day to day. It's eye opening to see who you were 15 pounds ago.
  • I love the idea of a one day calorie boost with the exercise jump and water. It will work, I've done it myself. The exercise boost is augmented if you do something you haven't done before. If you like your cardio, switch to some strength work outs. (There's some good ones you can do at home with no weights. I have a couple…
  • I restarted last week. I thought I was heavy but I had no idea until I got on the scale last Monday when I found out I was 12 pounds north of my worst estimate. I wish you the best of luck.
  • Obstacle number 1 for this week, I worked 3 hours of overtime last night and didn't make it to the gym. After 11 hours on my feet I was tired and hungry and had run out of time for the gym. So now the schedule will be, at best, off kilter. At worst the schedule will be screwed, so to speak. Since my job is one where I…
  • 130 is a big goal, and not one you'll be able to achieve quickly or without adversity. Hell, my first 50 pound weight loss was rife with adversity as I'm sure everyone's journey is. You can do it.
  • Cleanse programs are all b*llsh*t, there's nothing to them. A healthy diet with fiber will do the same thing. There's no such things as the 'nooks and crannys' of your colon, it's a smooth muscle and not an English Muffin. There isn't one scientific clinical study performed by doctors that show these have any positive…
  • There are plenty of books to help as well. Strength training has a lot of subtle nuances to it that takes a while to dial in. There are workouts geared toward all kinds of specific goals.
  • Use this everyday.
  • A couple of classics that work out great, depending on your commitment: If there's a private office you want to prank, cover the doorway (if possible) with clear plastic insulation sheets. You can smooth them down so they aren't even noticed. A person walking headlong into that will bounce back out. I work in law…
  • Always my face, then the belly. C'mon belly!
  • I will check it out. I've been using some of the machines at the gym and I've been getting a good burn out of those. I'm only in my second week here, so I'm fine tuning the workouts I want to do. I'm on a 12 week program for myself, and I'm going to use a calorie deficient / protein dense diet along with strength training…
  • Add Justin Bieber and Twilight to that list. I didn't take it, but I know I am. It's a human nature / genetic thing. I know I automatically associate obesity with laziness, apathy, self indulgence and entitlement. The big question is, am I wrong? Stereotypes exist, as the genius George Carlin pointed out, because a large…
  • I guess this set of pics best displays examples of my question, and I DO find these women sexy.
  • What kind of core workout do you do? I have to do Legs / Core today.
  • Arrogant *kitten* rules! The Pumpkin Ales are coming. Weyerbacker makes one of the best. Anything by Cigar City Brewing has my attention, but right now it's all about Brooklyn's Concoction!
  • As a matter of taste, I have to admit there's something very sexy about these very muscular women to me. I don't know what it is. Maybe it's just because that part of my brain is on overdrive, I find a lot of different body types sexy. The sexiest, of course, is my wife. She's HOT, glad to say.
