bump. nice post. thx

:bigsmile:

Oregon: Ore-GONE instead of Ore-gun. As for "axe" a question, only used to hear that from Indian co-workers.

Bwahaha!!! Only trouble is, when I'm there with the kids, I gotta practically lock them in the carts to prevent them from rushing the sample stands. Even worse is if I've now gotta find a drink sample to quench their thirst :ohwell:

Moss Adams?

Well, I think the easiest chocolate croissants ever are Trader Joe's :bigsmile: Let them sit out overnight, then bake in toaster oven for 20mins. They come out just like the kind you would get at a pastry shop. So GGGOOOOOOODDD!!!

Uh, you don't need to spend $$$ (e.g. P90X or Insanity) to do plyometrics. Exercises that generally enhance quickness and help jolt your nervous system (the neurological component). It's not really traditional cardio, which involves mainly your slow-twitch muscles. There's a wide variety of plyometric exercises out there,…

1st, luv the site Mike. Mad props to you. Suggestion: since most of the drama is centered around the "Chit-chat, fun and games" forum, why not just exclude such threads when someone clicks on "recent posts"? If someone would like to stay current on the community message board topics without entering a potentially "hot"…

This. I chalk up muscle soreness (DOMS) as sort of a good thing--the only minor drawback to a tough workout as long as I don't injure myself. What works for me (and a host of others) in reducing muscle soreness is taking in some BCAA's (branch chain amino acids) during workouts. Won't eliminate them, but I've noticed…

Schweddy Balls...sounds like it comes with a salty cone

How often do you vacation in a year? If seldom, go splurge. Eat a key lime pie...or several. Pound a few drinks. Get back on the MFP plan when you get back. 3 days ain't gonna kill your progress.

Sounds good. Keep it up for a few weeks, and if you sense little to no progress, then switch it up (e.g. weights before cardio, HIIT). Thing is...keep the body guessing and undergoing new or increasing stress in order to grow muscles and lean out: body recomposition.

Good advice. Thanks.

Me too. Love Trader Joe's (strawberry or pomegranate) and Lifeway as well.

Hey! Not Everyone hates skinny biatches. That's a ridiculous over exaggeration. I for one apparently love skinny biatches. I fall for them all the time.

bwahaha!!! I used to use "growing old" as an excuse. But as probably the wisest man ever in the U.S. said: ""We do not stop playing because we are old. We grow old because we stop playing " Benjamin Franklin

There's only been 1 movie that has ever made me cry (I bawled a puddle of tears) and that was when I was a kid...The Champ. Some movies may have brought a speckle to my eye: E.T., Bicycle Thief, Old Yeller. Old classics. Nothing recent that I can recall. I tend to cry more from laughing too hard during comedies.

+1. Vodka Redbulls (sugar-free) was pretty much my diet for this past weekend in Vegas. Just enjoy the weekend, have a great time with friends, and then get back on the MFP plan once you get back. No need to feel guilty at all.

Haha. There's no secret. Just a lot of damn effort, food intake discipline and patience. I've been trying to get a 6-pack over the last 6 months (starting from over 20% body fat) and I'm finally starting to see some definition, though my stomach area still resembles more of a keg than a six-pack. I do a combo of JM's 6…

He's gotta understand that he can't hog up several stations, so just politely ask him if you can work in to finish out your workout. He should be understanding and say yes of course. If he's a *ick about it, then you may need to find another exercise/station to hit your back...traditional deadlift, mid-row machine, incline…

Though I'm generally a happy, go-lucky person, I'm pretty focused at the gym so people generally don't approach me. Either that, or I may look uptight cuz I'm trying to hold a load of gas from bursting out.

bwahahaha!!!

Under Armour... ...cuz I like to pretend I'm fit!

+1. It's strange how much your hamstrings affect your lower back. Also agree with stretching. Cat and dog stretches helped me out a lot; it may help you.

Aaahh, the dreaded DUCKFACE. It screams out "I'm stupid!!!" Or *uckface for some guys.

I like how it lists the natural sources.

OH!:love: Now pump it up. And back it up like a Tonka truck!!!

The back of my fingers. It's the only spot on my body where the skin feels taut, without a lot of flab.
