Oh... last one I promise... Gyms that discriminate against people that have built their bodies... whats up with that..! Damm planet fitness. Commercials are a bit funny but still :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAXo3Wr_nYU

LOL yep sounds like 24. More of a meat market than a house of pain... I changed gyms.

Ohhh one more, loud grunting and throwing the weights down, then looking around the gym like your trying to pick a fight, after an isolation exercise...I can see if your squatting but doing a concentration curl...try again, no one is impressed.

Creepy...but could be flattering... I get alot of folks staring at me, even had one come up to me and apologize just saying they were new and I looked like i knew what i was doing lol. Maybe he was checking out your form ;)

Not racking your weights, putting away your plyo boxes, or tires Interrupting me in a set Interrupting me between sets (if the headphones are on, they are on for a reason) Wearing so much perfume or cologne or perfume that I feel like im back in the CS chamber at boot camp "Bears" working out without a shirt on Not wiping…

Welcome back!

So true...do them holding a BOSU and add a pushup at the bottom... hurts so good!

Here is a good link... http://liftforlife.com/content/bodybuilding-fitness-diet-health-articles/diet-articles/727-protein-bar#Meal_Replacement_Bars: I usually get my sups from amazon (subscribe and save)...free shipping and i dont have to think about it

Camping, thats a tough one...and sometimes you just need to to enjoy it. Keep in mind, most tend to be more active when they camp... Moving gear around, walking the dog, etc so that will help. Other than that, leaner meats, more greens,liquor or wine instead of beer lol. If your really worried about it you can do a meal…

It shouldnt, but not all protein powders are created equal...read the labels.. If your physically active they recommend 1g per lb of bodyweight.

Well guess that depends what works for you, If you dont have alot of time I would recommend a home workout program. Beachbody is the most popular, sets you up with a exercise program and a nutrition plan. They have a program for just about everyone... P90X, turbo fire, slim in 6 etc.. There are others too, the Julian…

Ill second that... Green tea specifically

That flavor is my second choice !

I would have to go with Optimum Nutrition. (doing a 10 pound bag of vanilla ice cream now) It got 25G per serving, not alot of extra crap and the vanilla flavor is most flexible for making shakes, homemade protein bars, etc. It also mixes well in just a blender bottle and is available in the 10 pound bags and that can save…

Welcome...thats a good first step on a rewarding journey!

May want to try intervals, most gym treadmills have a button for it too. start with a jog//walk (2 min ea). Then work up the speed. Intervals are great for weight loss too, which will make running more enjoyable.

Yep, I can relate... I go hypo and have completely passed out at the gym a few times (I go full out at the gym)...here are some tips * Test your sugar (you can get meters for free and a thing of strips will last you a while if just testing once a day), dont hit the gym if your under 90. * Keep a can or box of OJ in your…
