Nice thread ah. Lol Anyhow, I like women with decent amount of muscles. I like skinny ones too but not too much! checked out Erin Stern and Marzia Prince. IMO, they're lovely! Too hot to handle.

I am not aware about the 3 DVD Series. You know the Title of the series? I am a fan and admired Bruce Lee's JKD, his training skills and discipline. Got copy of almost all of his movies. Can you tell us the titles so we can it out as well? Thanks in advance.

Elliptical Trainers was designed for heavy weights or obese trying to shed unwanted body fats/weights without causing excessive pressure to their joints, hence decreasing the risk of impact injuries. While Treadmill is a device for walking while staying in the same place or for running or walking in one place. Now, if you…

This. And IMO, it is necessary especially if you're into weight lifting. You don't get stronger in the gym but outside the gym. That's why proper nutrition and recovery is vital IMO.

Agree with anyone here. I'm on my 4th week on SL5x5 and so far so good. Anyhow, I have been lifting for nearly 3 years now so I decided not to follow Medhi's workout plan. Now, I didn't change anything but I added one isolation per body part like reverse flys for Flat Bench Press [would alternate with inclined barbell or…

This.

Agree to this suggestion. In fact, I am on week 4 SL5x5 program now. So far I am enjoying it though I revised it with some isolation work and added Tabata Protocol on non workout days. The result is just phenomenal. About your question on strength training and cardiovascular, I suggest you do both but on separate time of…

Awesome thoughts. Thanks for sharing. :-)

BUMP

Thanks for sharing this. ;-)

Count me in and add me up to your friends list. Want to lose FAT FAST? Try Tabata Protocol http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1608/is_5_20/ai_n6011850/ http://honewatson.com/og/guerilla-cardio-tabata-sprints/ http://www.laststopfatloss.com/tabata-workout Hope this helps. Good luck and have fun! ;-)

Totally agree with you Steve. In my opinion, the best inspiration is not to outdo others, but to outdo ourselves for our toughest opposite is the one looking back from the mirror.

Awesome post.

Yes, definitely. But I don't spend most of my time chatting with them during my session though. I always make sure I stay focus in my workout and I don't try to talk or disturb my friends while they're busy pumping iron as well. I believe that there's time and perfect place for everything. We only get to chat at the bar…

This. :-)

Yes, counting calories in and calories out each day works for me. You can't expect to drink lemonade when you squeeze an orange.

This. :-)

I suggest you go back to water. I take two glasses of 12oz water upon waking up. Say NO to powdered or ready-to-drink flavored beverages as they just filled with SUGAR. If you must, get a real fruit and eat with moderation. Just my two cents. :-)

Agree to this. Or you can use lifting strap or wrist strap. Used to have this problem and even if I use strap the bar still slipping out of my hands but now I can DL 400lbs with bare hand using over/under grip.

This.

I don't do sit ups just crunches. :-)

Interesting thread here. DL is one of my fave workout. I usually incorporate DL on my back/lats workout as opposed to some doing it on their leg workout. To avoid lower back pain I always warm up with weighted hyper-extensions and pull ups. I can lift twice of my current weight now - 180lbs.

It's inevitable not to get your shins scraped especially when you are pulling heavy weights. Wearing a knee-high socks is one of the best option. Luckily our gym has this 4 inch tube-like rubber/foam thingy [like foam roller] that everyone used to put on the squat bar to protect their traps. I use this thing to protect my…

Small world after all then.. Simon Walker here from The Queen City of the South - Cebu City!

Change your mindset, eating habits and lifestyle because our mental attitude is the most important part of staying fit and healthy.

Awesome thoughts. Kudos for posting/sharing this to us. I'd like to share this to my colleague in the office. Thanks again.

Tea is definitely great, especially green tea. Enjoy it without any additives. If you must, add honey.

Agree. :-)

Hmm, I don't think so. 1 gram of alcohol contains 7 kcal (= 29 kJ) and 1 shot glass contains 1.5 fl oz. If you convert this 1.5 fl oz to grams, you will get 42.5242847 grams. Now 42.5x7 = 297.5 right so if you're taking about two shots [that if you don't get carried away], that's about 595 cals total. Not to mention the…

Our human body contains anywhere from 55% to 78% water depending on our body size. To function properly, the body requires between one and seven liters of water per day to avoid dehydration; the precise amount depends on the level of activity, temperature, humidity, and other factors. Most of this is ingested through foods…
