@SofaKingRad......unless your name is Kim Cao, that isnt your instagram username. haha What is it?

Also to answer your original question. You should use free weights. Everyone on here has already said why. Anything you can do on machine, you can do with a free weight. You will usually get better faster results with free weights. There is a lot to know about free weights to ensure an injury free workout. But same goes…

This guy knows whats up. Lift heavy. You want to make sure form is good first tho. So def start with lower weights to perfect the lifts you're doing. A lot of females are under the impression that if you lift heavy weights you will turn into a monster. As most everyone on here as already said, that is impossible. If you…

Ya man, I have a GT Timberline that I bought when I was like 14. So its a bit old. It doesnt not look like mountain bikes today.

Why can't we just call people their names instead? Thats generally what I do. Interesting discussion tho.

Pale skin used to be considered a sign of upper class. Peasants and poor people were tan because they had to work in the fields and outside for a living. Embrace your skin tone and tell your tan friends to go plow a field and suck it! I dont know when tan skin got so popular, (probably around the same time skin cancer did)…

Longest answer ever to a simple question!! I almost didnt take the time to read it.....I'm glad I did. Many, many, many good points. I agree.....use the bathroom like a normal human being and use a paper towel to open the door (if available) and you will have no more germs on you than if you didnt even enter the restroom.…

I hit my goal weight by running about 5 days a week. Since then, I have cut way down and focused more on strength training, with a little cardio thrown in. Right now I have been running about 3miles/2days a week. Sometimes less if I go for a bike ride instead. I have a couple races coming up in september tho, so I should…

I was at the game on tuesday against the Astros. Man, what a GAME!! I'm not a huge baseball fan anymore, but I'm am pretty pumped the Pirates are doing so well. Hope it continues and we can get this ball club back on track! We are the city of champions for crying out loud!!

So true. Still love The Office and Parks and Rec tho. The only show I can watch with a laugh track is Seinfeld.

My VW demands at least 92. I usually put in 93 because its readily available at most gas stations around here. It keeps my valves from tapping and I get better mileage than regular. Totally worth the extra $.20 a gal.

This season definitely started off a little slow....action wise. But it really picked up and had some very very emotional and powerful scenes. If you've read the novels then you probably know what I mean. The season ended with a shot of the prison....so I am assuming they will end up there. I personally cannot wait!

I agree with this to an extent. Those shows do, at times, glorify the teen pregnancy thing. And I think even more so the fact that they are now celebs, and are making a crap ton of money for doing the show, makes it seem more appealing to a teenager. However, I've recently read that since the airing of "16 and Pregnant",…

I love the picture you have on your tracker!! thats hilarious!

Like I said....I TRY to eat organic and local as much as possible, but you're absolutely right.....it is for sure hard to find farms that would meet the strict concerns of most vegetarians and vegans. At least the ones that do it for the sake of animals. I dont think I will ever give up eating meat all together, but since…
-
My girlfriend is a vegetarian (used to be vegan, but she was having a hard time getting all her nutrients) and I tried it for 2 weeks as an experiment. It wasnt too bad because I go entire days already without eating meat. I wouldnt want to ever become one full time because it is such a hassle when dining out or at get…

"I'll leave KAN-JAM on the front porch. Just pick it up whenever." I let my friend borrow it for a party he was having. KAN-JAM for those of you who dont know...is the greatest picnic/BBQ/tailgating game to ever be invented! I played at a cookout a couple weeks ago for 5 straight hours! It cost me $40 for the game, but…

at least he wasnt looking at crank sets or flip flop hubs! eeeek

OH! Goodie! I was going to lift tonight after work, but maybe i'll cut that a little short and throw in a few miles instead. My girlfriend is not going to be very happy about this. She loves lifting......running not so much. :wink:

If you're drinking miller light you might as well switch to water....but to each his own. I personally LLOOOOVE beer, but mostly drink craft beers which tend to be very high in calories. I put up a similar post not long ago because I do not want to give up beer. I think the best thing to remember is everything is fine in…

I used to shave my chest hair/stomach several years ago, but as most of the ladies on here have already said....it makes you look like a child. I'm not a real hairy dude to begin with, but what I do now is use a body trimmer to keep it short. I think it looks a lot better...you can see the muscle definition without looking…

Great Job, MARCIEEEEEE! You look fantastic! You and Trav both are an inspiration.

really? no one out there has any opinions on this? Its just a question....am I over or under thinking this?
-
I recently talked my gf into coming to the gym to lift with me. Like yourself, and I think every other woman on the planet, she was nervous and didnt want to end looking like a dude. She is doing great and likes doing it way more than cardio now. It's nice getting or giving some encouragement from a loved one when you…

Also like some others have stated...it is just as easy to use bad form on machines as is it free weights. If the machine seat, bars, handles...whatever, are not adjusted properly, you can very easily be forced to use poor form and end up really hurting yourself. Machines are not bad tho. You will still build muscle by…

This is good advice if you arent comfortable going in the weight room with a bunch of people watching you. There are an insane amount of variations to each of those body weight exercises too....so you can always mix it up and find what works the best for you. Push ups, lunges, and squats will work your entire body and you…
