  • I have a high acuracy scale at home that I use for reloading shells. I will have to weigh one of the pills some day and see. You don't round 1.67 to 1.0 For the record, I don't track the calories in my supplements, I was just using it as an example.
  • WOW. All questions answered. this article should be required reading when registering to this site. Thank you!
  • Meh, I never understood why we don't just eat the maintenance calories for our "goal weight". Your body can only maintain a certain weight on a given amount of calories. Why is my calories to get to 180 about 1000 less than what I will eat to maintain 180?
  • Of course they are coated. I would understand if they were 15 total and 9 from fat but it says 15 for both.
  • 1 lb is 453.5924 grams. Each gram of fat is 9 calories. That makes 1 lb of fat equal 4082.3316 calories. Where does the 3500 come from? My Fish oil pills contain 1 gram of fat but are 15 calories each.
  • That was "Sixth Sense". And he wasn't dead the whole time, he was alive in the first few minutes of the movie before the guy shot him.
  • In "What Dreams May Come", Robin is searching heaven/hell (one of his wife's paintings) for his dead wife. Not and alternate reality. He also doesn't get there right away, it takes a while before he dies in the movie.
  • Done mine every day so far. I went to sets long ago. Some days I can get more in a row than others. Yesterday I did 13 in a row, that is the most so far and that was after doing my workout that included bench press. I will be doing today's in a little while and will still be shooting for as many as possible in the first…
  • Full Burpees. They incorporate everything. A full burpee has a pushup in it, a jump squat and move similar to a mountain climber.
  • My satellite TV provider has on demand movies for rent. When I checked them out last, there were a few workout videos for FREE. If you can get on line, google M100 exercise. That will take the stir crazies right out of ya.
  • Working out again makes my muscles feel better when I have the DOMS. Flushes them out like the above poster said. Just make sure that you are giving the muscles time to repair, typically 48 hours between similar exercises. Most of the DVD routines say something about not needing to do anything extra. The DVD should be…
  • Did my 17 for today before my workout. I just did 17 sit-ups too. I Haven't been doing the sit-up thing but I am going to start today.
  • If it is arthritis, you need to keep the joint moving. Not sure about the fluid. My knees make a terrible crunching sound when I bend them so I have been taking the same supplements that you are planning on taking. The grinding is not getting worse and I have no pain so I guess it is all good. I have told my doctor about…
  • I just did mine for the day. Days 1-15 in the books. The last few days I have been doing small sets with lots of power, trying to build up. Today I managed 10 in a row but I did 12 all at once on the 12th. I probably could have made it to 12the but I didn't want to struggle to get them. I think I will stick with sets of…
  • Find videos by Mark Ripptoe on Youtube. He shows the correct bar placement and grip.when done correctly there should be no pain. EDIT: The pic above is correct. Keeping the elbows back will hold the bar there. Note the positioning of the wrists and thumbs too. Ripptoe's videos explain all of this.
  • 3pm during the week and 30 min after breakfast on Saturday. I hit the gym on the way home from work, it is about 4 blocks away so I can't talk my self out of it before I get there. LOL.
  • My workout shirt rubs my nipples raw when I run, I thought I was the only one.
  • I just wanted to let everyone know that I do not plan on finishing this challenge... if civilization ends on 12-21-12. If that happens, I will have enough to worry about without taking 20-30 minutes to do pushups, LOL
  • One gallon of pure water weighs 8 lbs. I would chalk it up to water weight. I gained 1 lb in 5 minutes this morning, after drinking 8 oz of water.
  • Makes me wonder how he chisseled out his arms.
  • Did all nine of mine today. Still doing them with my feet elevated. These have been personal bests since day 7. Prior to this I had only been able to do 7 standard push-ups in a row, let alone the feet elevated thing. I am going to continue doing them with my feet elevated and will strive to do as many in a row as I can.…
  • Julian calendar. Google it.
  • This must be working. My 6 today were easier than my 5 yesterday. I think I could have done more. Still doing then with the feet up on the couch.
  • Ever wonder why your backside is near frozen after being outside shoveling snow but you are sweating? Fat is an insulator. Add to that a presumed inactivity while "sitting" in the house and you have what the OP said about your body becoming accustomed to your surroundings. Your body is diverting blood flow to internal…
  • You can change your macro goals. I set mine to 40, 40, 20% of my total calories. If you know what works for you, you can change your goals to match that so that you aren't going "over" all the time.
  • Unripe Mangoes taste kinda like a carrot. The same thing makes both of them orange, beta carotene.
  • I just found this, kinda corroborates what as been said about it absorbing minerals from the body.
  • Even worse, they sell it right next to the drinking water. I know it is bad for fish too, my girlfriend killed her Beta fish with it once.
  • A few years ago, My sister, Father and I were losing weight so that we could go to Sandusky together. My father was the only one that had ever been excluded from a ride for his weight but we all knew were prety close. We didn't want to make the 18 hour trip and not be able to ride everything. My sister is gone now, she…
  • When I hit 200lbs, I am getting a heavy bag for the garage. When I reach my goal, I am getting a kick *kitten* pair of MMA shorts I saw in Mens Fitness a few months ago. Of course, by the time I reach my goal, they may not be selling them anymore.
