How do I transform into a creeper?
I must just give off this non-creepy vibe. What should I be doing differently so the womens see me and be like, "OH, YUCK, CREEP"?

Why are EASY slow cooker recipes so COMPLEX?
Some of the ingredients, ugh. Not everyone lives near a Whole Foods. I live in Bumwater Minnesota, the ingredients I can find are lacking. So anyway, long story short, I leave for work every day at 7:15. My wife is a Stay-At-Home-Mom, and her + the kids sleep til 8:30-ish. Then after making beds, tooth brushing, etc.,…

Scared straight? HOPEFULLY!
WTF am I doing with my life? I have 2 toddler boys. My wife wants another kid. I've only been married for 4 1/2 years. And I'm gonna die! You ever seen a fat old guy? Nope. Why? Because they die prematurely. Heart disease, diabetes, early onset arthritis. That's all in my future. Unless I change. I want to see my kids age.…

5X5 stronglifts
I've made the decision to add a few more days of weight lifting to my workout life. Presently, I only weight lift with a trainer, so I'm still kind of a novice. As far as something that I can follow along on my iPhone and do, is Stronglifts 5X5 the way to go? Another? Simpler is better right now. Thanks!

Kettlebells
I think I want to get into kettlebell workouts. What do I need? Weights and a DVD I assume. Where do I buy that stuff?

5 minute pre bed workout
5 minutes before bed. Want to work out a little. What should I do? Go! (Already thinking bodyweight squats and standard-to-forearm planks). ETA...I hit the gym in the morning. This is just an additional supplement.

What's THAT WEIGHT for you?
Currently 300-ish lbs. Once I hit 285 lbs, where I haven't been in at least 5 years, I'll know I'm starting something. Until then, It's kinda been there / done that to be honest. What is your THAT WEIGHT?

Eating pre-weight lift
Lately I have had quite a few lifting sessions leaving me almost queasy. Should I be eating pre-lift? If so, what? Thanks! ETA: My lifts are early AM. Like o-dark-thirty early.

I want an exercise buddy. Someone who also wants to lose a lot. Someone to cheer victories. Someone to mock mercilessly when skipping workouts. Apply within.

Protein Powder
I only have protein shakes on LIFT days, not CARDIO days. And, since I'm new, I only LIFT once a week for the time being. My current protein of choice is ON Gold Standard 100% whey. It really touts great muscle recovery, which i totally what I need. But my fave flavor, Cinnamon Graham Cracker, only comes in the 3.3 lb jug.…

Anyone Knowledgeable about FitBit's?
Hey FitBit friends. It looks like the FitBit Force basically takes the place of your watch? Can you clean it regularaly so it doesn't get gunky and sweaty after a workout? I'm just very curious how many steps I take. Want to push myself!

Dude, how do you do a plank?
I'm a 35 year old dude in horrible shape. I keep hearing about the benefit of planks. How do you do one? Just get up on your toes and elbows and stay there? Do you suck in your gut the whole time, too? I don't get it!

Are Cheat Days A Myth?
I need someone to correct me if I am wrong. But I once heard said that CHEAT DAYS are one the the worst things for a diet. IE, 6 2000 calorie days and 1 6000 calorie day dows you know good. Instead have 7 2500 calorie days. That's the path to success. I'm sure there are people on each side of this coin. Just throwing it…
