The idea of understanding, and being educated, goes beyond remembering and reciting a concept. In order to completely understand how to do something, one must also be able to apply it as well. Proper education teaches people how to apply their knowledge. So yes, real education is the whole answer.

Machines don't work stabilizer muscles or secondary support muscles. To simplify it as best as possible, you'll end up over stimulating and over training a big muscle and under training the little muscles that also help with the lift. You won't get "real life" stronger by using machines, as in, very rarely in your life…

Dropping a frozen turkey into a vat of boiling oil is like chucking gasoline on your gas stove.

If you drop the bar for OHP it isn't going to land on your neck and heart. You can step back. Suicide grip is a big deal no matter how you do it and at no point should it ever be done. Someone with shoulder issues should look into other pressing techniques. Never give yourself a chance to mess up because that one time you…

Proper form and safety overrules amount of weight you are able to lift.

Please, please find another adjustment. It isn't a freak accident that happens once in a while. Never hold hundreds of pounds over your neck with an open hand.

It is one of the most dangerous things you can do while weight training. There must be other adjustments you can make for your shoulders other than to risk some sweaty hands ending your life.

I was gonna say, anyone who uses a suicide grip deserves it. I always suggest people who bench alone to never use clips on the bar so if anything happens the weights can be tilted off.

It is the other way around. With Death as your spotter you'll get that adrenaline boost to rep your max at least 5-6 more times.

Eat :| :p

When I was in high school I used to nap after school for hours and hours. Now that I am 23 and a busy grad student, I very much still do want to nap, but I don't actually NEED to do it. It probably has to do with the medication you are taking, specifically the antidepressant. Talk to your doctor about it. Naps are…

Just get a big ol' bowl of lettuce and dump hot sauce on it.

Pound out some pushups. Then sit down and find out why you are stressed, how you are going to deal with it, and how you are going to go through the action of actually dealing with it.

Your caloric intake is all over the place. Assuming things are accurate, you should be eating more than 900 calories.

You have to select it as main image for it to show up on posts.

Golden Grahams are the tastiest cereal ever.

**** happens to our bodies that makes no sense sometimes. Just keep losing weight and make sure you have a lifting routine and you'll be fine.

What if you are overestimating though. :|

I say at 21 years old I wouldn't worry about a 185 HR. If you want to talk to a doctor go ahead.

I tried the photosynthesis diet, got me some serious gainz.

Love dat meat and nuts.

Only fruit I need.

You cannot make any healthy noticeable changes in a week, really. Just do some sort of working out and you'll be fine.

Your 11 year old brother benches 455? Light weight. :|

You should try lifting bro instead of trying to impress girls in a thread about what kind of man they like.

I'll generally play basketball on days that I do not lift. If I lift before playing, I get blown by all the time because I am tired. If I play before lifting, I can't maximize my strength because I am tired. So I alternate days.

Any start is a good start! :)

So you're saying that non smokers talking about smoking is like the Eagles talking about winning in the playoffs? :|

They don't seem to understand that.
