In my experience after some fast initial gains OHP becomes very hard to progress on. Partly I think it's out of the 4 or so major compound lifts it's everyone's weakest. Adding 5 pounds to the press is a big deal % wise.. Even one more rep is a pretty big deal. In contrast, 5 more pounds on the deadlift....you might not…

Protein shakes are food. So just mentally review everything she told you and imagine the word 'food' being used every time she said protein shake. "Women are not supposed to eat food"

You can wear whatever you're comfortable in regardless of what others blahblahblahblah... Lets cut to the honesty: As a hetero male with a functioning sex drive I'm totally in favor of you wearing that.

This thread got pretty terrible around page 6-7, but you guys pulled it out of the fire. pls carry on with the snark.

Every few days. And track trend with Libra, an Android app. I can then see where I'm headed in general without getting distracted by the occasional random extra highs and lows.

If you're faced with several close matches in the database probably go with the higher calorie one. A lot of restaurant food is crazy calorie dense. It shouldn't be that big a deal unless you eat out a lot though. A few hundred calories this way or that over the course of a week won't make of break your diet.

Yes. Exactly this. At about that age I loved looking at beautiful women. I'd never even heard of sex. It's not an artificial society thing. For better or worse it's a human thing.

Can you please source the bleached and additive claims? I thought the milk fat was just extracted with a centrifuge prior to homogenization. That's pretty minimal 'processing'

I used to have this problem with diamond push-ups (hands together) Doing more push-ups in increasing volume, and working to get deeper will get you there sooner or later. It did for me. Though I second the suggestion of pressing if possible. Being able to load a similar movement with increasing weight is probably the…

I don't. Some guys do, others don't.

For all practical purposes if there are no consequences you can't do anything. eg trying to turn on a light. You flip the switch but the light doesn't turn on.. Actually, the switch didn't move. Actually your arm doesn't move.

The conversation went something like this as best I can recall. Doc: "You're overweight" Me: "Really? About 200 pounds doesn't seem that bad for a guy my height." Doc: "It's too much for someone of your activity level" Me "Oh..." I realized she was right. I was out of shape, wasn't exercising or engaging in sports, and had…

The short answer is yes I like it. The longer answer is that individual sessions range from mildly unpleasant to fun, and I generally feel happier afterwards than when I started. It can sometimes be a drag, and there's the occasional day when I just can't get into it. But I generally find that physical exertion makes me…

In for answers. I don't think hands ever occured to me as a feature to look for, or at, in particular. So seeing it here multiple times I'm curious and wouldn't mind hearing what women do and don't like about hands...besides not being dirty.

These are people who don't understand that physical condition requires maintenance and is not a once and done operation. Ask them if it's worth repairing a leaky roof if some day it might start leaking again if neglected.

Sure, this seems like a thing that is meaningful and merits lengthy discussion.

Food racists is my new favorite term.

You don't understand. Losing weight is easy. Gaining muscle is hard. This plan is like throwing away money because you can always earn more later. eta: argh necrothread.

Actually those threads all all suck too. But if you post in there complaining about it people would just rate you. Can't stop an avalanche by shaking your fist at it.

Plan meals around protein. So they have to include a quality source. Eggs, Lean Meat, Chicken, Fish, Whey. When filling out the rest of your meals try to include foods that have a significant amount in them too. Cheese, other dairy, nuts and seeds, beans. I really can't hit my goals without a substantial serving of meat at…

When are people going to figure out that just because a stupid argument is in some form of text it isn't news? I'm going to point out that the reason that this blew up is because the woman in question directed her friends to harrass him about it because he didn't care enough about her complaint.…

Start with an amount that does not cause significant problems the next day. This may be tiny at the beginning. That's fine. Work out every day or every other day. With very limited ability to do anything without flooring yourself the next day working on endurance exercise might be kinda pointless in the beginning. I…

Penguin plushies. Dozens of them.

Start lifting in your teens instead of your thirties.

Umm why? Assuming you have teeth why would eating mashed carrots or whatever be better than just carrots?

You pretty much nailed them. Except I don't really care about misspellings. Those others though get me every time. Oh threads with titles along the lines of "Hey Ladies I have a woman question - Women Only!"

I've got no problem with extremely obese people setting conservative goals. When they get closer to success they'll know if they want to adjust them.
