Not eat at a deficit. You have to eat at least at maintenance or, preferably, a surplus to gain mass unless you are still considered overweight or obese. You need the extra calories to facilitate protein synthesis and muscle growth. Cut back on cardio and hope you have good genetics.

The problem people have with stripping is usually related to prurient beliefs or religious beliefs. There have been dancers (nude and clothed) since the dawn of mankind. Nudity wasn't really an issue until more modern times. I think the real problem that most people have with strippers (besides religious ideals) is the…

Your premise is that Western culture (magazines/beauty market) is what influences and not the other way around. The market puts forth what sells and eliminates what doesn't. If there were not a market or appeal for women with shaved armpits, not amount of marketing could make it so. My opinion on the matter is that women…

Actually, I was looking at old data. CDC data puts the number of US population doing the recommended allowance of strength training at 20.8% but has generally increased over time since 1997.

That may be true about gyms, but the statistics show that there has been a gradual increase in the US of those people that report doing some level of strength training (69.6% in 1999 to 74.3% in 2002). True, many people may not use a gym but that doesn't mean a good portion of people (in the US at least) do some form of…

I wouldn't say that BMI is a good indicator for health anymore for varying reasons: 1. The advent of gyms and their usage, along with strength training, which has increased in various countries. 2. The diets of different Western cultures have changed. Meat is more plentiful and eaten on a regular basis much more than it…

Gotta have the Miracle Whip, especially in tuna/chicken salad. Regular mayo has no flavor and has the consistency of congealed lard with all of the fatty flavoring.

I actually think it was the stirring motion while getting the soy milk. It's that come hither wrist motion and the hint of a reach around with the passing of the cream.

The passive aggressive breakup is a learned skill for guys. It's a lot easier than dealing with the insanity that is demonstrated by a lot of women with a more direct breakup.

Women aren't insane, just different levels of crazy. They can't help it, it's in their genes. Heres an article on why women are crazy: http://brobible.com/life/article/why-women-are-crazy/ Guess what, it's all men's fault. Here's an article on the craziness of women, from a man's perspective:…

Removing your rings is the safe thing to do. Most likely you won't deglove your finger or loose a finger while lifting but it can pinch the heck out of your skin. I don't wear rings doing any kind of manual labor or at the gym and when I did, I wore gloves. I don't care how much of a *kitten* people think I am for doing it.

If I do drink soda, which isn't very often, it's typically diet. Lets just say that it's better for you than a fully sugared up soda but worse for you than just drinking water. It's not the diet soda that's supposedly bad for you, it's the sweeteners. Studies have shown to do crazy things in animals but what happens in…

Wow, all humans are complicated, have emotions and feelings. Males just seem to have an easier time controlling them. Sounds like someone has a lot of hatred for men in general. I recommend counseling.

Go under food, settings and there is a section where you can change the names of your meals. It gives six slots. I think you can only do this on the website.

Probably thinks it some guys name. lol

My recommendation is to get over your anxiety. Guys have to deal with anxiety on approaching a woman all of the time. You have to either get used to rejection or used to not getting what you want. However, the first part of my post was replying to the comment that men are just dicks with attached bodies. Not every guy…

Huh? What? This is so sexist. What kind of guys have you been dealing with? Anyway, women check out men as much as men check out women, they're just not as blatantly obvious about it. If you like a guy, you better make the first move if he doesn't or someone else might. A guy likes a confident women just as much as a woman…

The idea of being "hot" is subjective. Loosing some weight may/may not make someone physically attractive but that's only part of the equation.

Chocolate facts: 1. The average adult human would have to eat about 11 lbs of chocolate to die from ingesting too much chocolate. 2. Chocolate is the perfect vehicle to deliver poisons to an unsuspecting person.
