discussed gaining weight......

with one of the janitors here at my work. I was kicking it in the lucnh room feeding my face. I told him that i was trying to gain some weight, so I was feeding my face every few hours. he went ahead and told me that if i really wanted to gain weight that i should just eat one huge meal before bed and do lots of low impact bench press I did not argue. i just got up and left

unless the janitor is billy blanks from whatever the hell movie that was, he probably is full of shit.

I know this guy is full of shit.

Chewing Gum

Chewing Gum

Are there any negative effects on the body from chewing gum? I am wondering about the chemicals that are released from the actual gum that are mixed in with your saliva and eventually swallowed.

chemicals like sugar or aspartame? i chewed gum everyday for years. it made my jaw weird so i stopped

jesus christ, stop worrying so much

ok now i'm convinced. this guy is an AE. there is no way anyone can actually be as dumb / paranoid as he is

you ask the stupidest shit i have ever seen

christophers it has to be an ae its not, I checked all the ips

my benchpress is the same as my squats

my benchpress is the same as my squats

why is that?

my squat > bench press

because you have been benching longer than you have been squating

I don't know why my squat sucks, I rep 410 on the leg press but can barely do 225 when squatting.

Kozzy McKoz I don't know why my squat sucks, I rep 410 on the leg press but can barely do 225 when squatting. i think squat uses more muscles and you have stabilzers and shits

jonno because you have been benching longer than you have been squating tru.dat but i mean i walk and run and stand up and shit, i think i should be able to do more than 115

yur weak

My squat sucks balls (lower than my bench press) but that's because I've squatted < 5 times in my life. And in the few times that I have squatted, my max reps (4-5) went up about 100 pounds.. in like a 2.5 week time period. So if I continued to squat, I am sure that it would be above my bench in no time.

squats are fun....so unless you want chicken legs there is no reason to not do them

Kozzy McKoz I don't know why my squat sucks, I rep 410 on the leg press but can barely do 225 when squatting. Bent you dont do a full ROM leg press.

My squat numbers are impressive. my benching is weak like a little girl. god I need to work on triceps

Ilyusha My squat sucks balls (lower than my bench press) but that's because I've squatted < 5 times in my life.

So if I continued to squat, I am sure that it would be above my bench in no time. why the hell arent you squatting then

Your legs suck is the simple answer

and why the hell would you post this in both forums

Its probably more that your body isnt used to the movement rather than your legs arent as stong as your chest. If you keep doing it your numbers should go up.

sans_pants why the hell arent you squatting then he's a weenie

Ceaze he's a weenie

my squat #'s are awful too..im starting to go parallel now instead of ass to grass

Kozzy McKoz I don't know why my squat sucks, I rep 410 on the leg press but can barely do 225 when squatting. that sounds about right, maybe just a little low on the squat. it sounds like you don't do them often.

christophers if wrx squats everyone should squat

Squats rock

Aluyminyum that sounds about right, maybe just a little low on the squat. it sounds like you don't do them often. Well yeah, the first time I've squatted was about a month ago, and I've done it like 7 times since then.

Kozzy McKoz I don't know why my squat sucks, I rep 410 on the leg press but can barely do 225 when squatting. That's not that bad, I've seen people load up the leg press with 700lbs rep that and can't squat 225 parallel. I've always had strong legs but I recently partially tore my patellar tendon squatting 405.

my benchpress is the same as my squats

When you read all the debates and all sorts of studies and shit, you realize how much of this stuff has been known for so long. People just keep rehashing the same shit over and over and try to make different theories and stuff, but it all boils down to tried and true stuff from a long time ago. Whether it be techniques or nutrition or what not. I guess thats why Lyle doesn't want to keep writing all the time anymore.

Questions Reguarding PH's

Questions Reguarding PH's

I know they are banned, but how do they continue to have anabolicminds.com PH forum up ang going still??? Are they illegal to buy them still? Not from retailers but can you buy them off teh street???

Jaccordan I know they are banned, but how do they continue to have anabolicminds.com PH forum up ang going still??? Are they illegal to buy them still? Not from retailers but can you buy them off teh street??? why would you take the risc with a pro hormone, might as well just go for the real shit. It dont make no sense to even fuck with em.

Im just asking questions about them. im just wondering how they continue this stuff when its illegal

its nto illegal to discuss them and how to use them, just illegal to buy, sell or possess

Well wheres everyone getting them if they are illegal??? Canada?

Jaccordan Well wheres everyone getting them if they are illegal??? Canada? just liek any other drug dude...

someone pm me info on where to get some

a lot of people bought and stocked up before the ban. the only one that i know you can buy is superdrol cause its not on the ban list yet. dont even bother with ph's now they are just as illegal as steroids might as well go the real deal. will probably be around the same price and better results

Jaccordan someone pm me info on where to get some Why? If you are going to buy and possess an illegal substance you might as well go for the juice.

PH's aren't for joo

you could have a forum about murdering babies if you wanted to

Sgt. Ownage you could have a forum about murdering babies if you wanted to What do you mean "could have"? I will send you a PM if you want in.

ACURA TL-S Why? If you are going to buy and possess an illegal substance you might as well go for the juice. Its not for me. One of my old partners emailed me and i told him i would look into it for him.

Jaccordan Its not for me. One of my old partners emailed me and i told him i would look into it for him. So? As was said, might as well go for the real thing since they're both illegal. And right before the ban, a lot of people stocked up on PHs.

only 3.5hrs of sleep - would u still hit the gym

Because of my crazed obsession of working on my car till the wee hours of the morning...I literally had about 3.5hrs of sleep last night. I was a mess at work and was falling asleep on the phone w/my girl earlier. I am kinda awake now, a tad groggy, but conscious. If you were in my situation-would u still go to the gym today? I try to go 7 days a week, just because I can since gym is soo close to me and its such a habit not that when i am forced to skip a day, i feel super guilty. **EDIT: I would do elliptical for 30-40min, no lifting.

Shaolin_sword36 i'm pretty sure it will overtraining one day, i doubt he would overtrain.

i wouldnt

princess0fdiabl0 one day, i doubt he would overtrain. he already goes 7 days a week (assuming medium to high intensity) that is overtraining as it is

I wouldent I am lazy and really like my sleep

no

Shaolin_sword36 he already goes 7 days a week (assuming medium to high intensity) that is overtraining as it is my bad, should have read the post closer, 7 days

you're not going to get much benefit until you actually rest and let your body recuperate, so why bother

getting used to my new gym... pro grip "rubber" db VS. full iron b

getting used to my new gym... pro grip "rubber" db VS. full iron b

[since google dont work, i can show the pics of the two] anyways, in my previous gym (2 years old---basically brand new) the dumbbells i used there for 2 years was the "rubber type". now in my new gym (same franchise) they have older weights, and the db and even plates are the old full iron ones. i dont know if its just me but the older full iron weights are heavier than the rubber type. for example, with the rubber type, i can do 90lbs db incline 4-6times. while with the full iron db, i can only do 80lbs 4-6 times same i notice with BB bench. anyone here ever had this kinda change?

they're steel, not iron

The YMCA near my house, where i work out during summer or when im home on a weekend from college has the steel DB's...they are not that heavier from the University Rubber DB's...

Ceaze they're steel, not iron ok, steel it is but yea, 45lbs rubber != 45lbs steel

deznutz The YMCA near my house, where i work out during summer or when im home on a weekend from college has the steel DB's...they are not that heavier from the University Rubber DB's... i also notice that, the higher the weights off the ground, the heavier they get

LS Boy i also notice that, the higher the weights off the ground, the heavier they get What?

45lbs = 45lbs I've never had problems with different dumbbells.

my gym has a mix of rubber and metals. the rubbers seem more heavy for some reason. I noticed that the grips on some of the metals are much fatter (i have long fingers) which I like and can lift a little bit more of

im thinking its the grips also..coz the rubber one has fatter grip compare to steel. all in all, weights is weights

seems like every time I use the steel weights, they are always loose and rickety, I like the rubber weights.

maybe the listed weight of the rubber DBs are the total weight, whereas the listed weight of the steel DBs only include the plate weights, not the handle?

heres the pic difference: rubber = steel =

I just hate the busted ass steel ones because they get shit all over. I always end up with powder/metal shavings/whatever all over me

KetchupKing maybe the listed weight of the rubber DBs are the total weight, whereas the listed weight of the steel DBs only include the plate weights, not the handle? That may be one of the dumbest things Ive read on this forum. wtg

iwishiwascool That may be one of the dumbest things Ive read on this forum. wtg Sounds like a reasonable explanation to me. stfu.

Boomer Sounds like a reasonable explanation to me. stfu. no, no it does not... why the fuck would someone sell u something gheavier than it actually is...

tize Big deal, get over it. Man up

iwishiwascool That may be one of the dumbest things Ive read on this forum. wtg Actually one of my gyms has the plate loaded ones and the "40's" have 4 10lb plates on them.

cavefish Actually one of my gyms has the plate loaded ones and the "40's" have 4 10lb plates on them. Same here, that's how my gym's are. I'm gonna see if I can take one of them on a scale and see the actual weight.

vettedude no, no it does not... why the fuck would someone sell u something gheavier than it actually is... kids these days.

nathanbx Same here, that's how my gym's are. I'm gonna see if I can take one of them on a scale and see the actual weight. i was gonna say, if you really think the weights are more or less than the actual weight of the dumbbell... go take it over to the scale and measure it. simple process. if you find that both weights weigh the exact same... then it's all a psychological factor of thinking "metal weighs more than rubber, this'll be harder".

iwishiwascool That may be one of the dumbest things Ive read on this forum. wtg

It depends on the manufacturer. Some are off 5-6 lbs. We actually were screwing around one day and put different plates on the scale. Some of them weighed 45 and a couple weighed 40. I believe Ivanako was true weight and the other plates under different manufacturers were not true.

Intellex I just hate the busted ass steel ones because they get shit all over. I always end up with powder/metal shavings/whatever all over me If I hit the rubber ones together they normally bounce off to much.

You shouldn't really be hitting the dumbells together that hard.
