I often see people here mention fat burners, pre-workouts, and other workout supplements containing stimulants and thought I'd share this news. Be cautious out there, ya hear?

Someone is stealing my lunch at work.
So today I went in the cafeteria.... I work on the 1st floor in a fairly large building and we have 2 refrigerators in there. But when I grabbed my lunch I noticed it felt light. The sandwich was missing. Lately I've been packing my lunch in a small Macy's bag.... you know the ones they give you for luxury items like…

Is this a useless exercise?
So rather than idle between sets I like to pick up a kettlebell and do these side bends. However, a trainer said to me in passing that "those are useless for your abs". (We've fraternized before and he's a cool guy... I think he was just giving blunt advice here.) Is it true? I go heavy as possible so there is constant…

How do young guys put on so much muscle these days?
Came across this chap on Instagram... he's only 21. WTH? Not that it's my goal to get that big but I reckon it would take me at least 10-15 years, if it were to happen at all, to put on that much muscle. Is there a secret I don't know about beyond just eating more food?

Who still eats at Chipotle?
I heard no one really goes there anymore since the Norovirus outbreak. Did they have an e.coli outbreak as well?! Yikes. In the past month I've received 3 coupons for a free burrito and I've gone twice. No lines at all. And just last week, a group of Chipotle employees near Boston came down with the Norovirus. :persevere:…

How often do you eat garlic?
I've been eating a clove everyday with various meals. Used to only eat it at baseball games (garlic fries). Garlic is like having a great dancer at your party, IMO. Does anyone eat garlic and how often? My great aunt was married to an Italian man from the old country and he told me he ate 3-4 cloves a day and never been…

How do you react when drivers tailgate you?
Sometimes I just don't understand it. How do you react?

Do you go for walks alone?
What do you think about? How long are your walks? What time do you like to walk? Where do you walk? Do you listen to music/audiobooks? Do you say hello to other walkers? Or are you too caught up in your own world to notice anyone else? Let us discuss the virtues of walking.

What were you eating at the age of 16?

Most calories you've consumed in one sitting?
I did 1960 last night at In-N-Out Burger. 1 double-double, 1 cheeseburger, 2 fries. Was a nice break from the kitchen. That's like 3-4 meals worth of calories for me.

Has anyone tried these new pizza places --- Pieology, MOD, Blaze
These are springing up everywhere (at least by me). They bake your customized, personal sized pizza in 3 min. in a high temp oven. Any good?

What are the best Oreos?
Ok, I had some "Golden" Oreos over the weekend and they were nothing short of incredible. I noticed on the website that Oreos come in like 10+ different flavors now. Where was this when I was a kid? What's another good flavor to try?

90g of fiber a day... is that too much?
I started preparing my own meals and not eating out and what I'm coming up with is 90g of fiber per day. Is that too much? At first it felt a little inconvenient (if you know what I mean) but now I'm getting the hang of it and feeling pretty good actually. What I'm worried about though is if I'm excreting too many…

Why do some people at the gym always look the same?
I went to my old gym that I hadn't been to in over a year and a lot of the regulars are still there and look the same. Now I know you're not supposed to think these thoughts and you are a very terrible person if you do but I am just curious to find out the science of why this happens? I don't wanna hit that wall when my…

Do you get tired of eating?
At 9:22pm last night I found myself needing another 500 cals to meet my daily quota (and that's only to gain 1 lb/week). I try to eat every 2 hours, usually 5-6 meals, and it feels like a full-time job plus overtime. It's real life stuff. It's one thing to get 1,000 cals from a take-out, but preparing healthy food at home…
