If you know your going to get totally trashed tonight...

What would you do? Take a few protein shakes before? I know im going to be drunk tonight

protein shake with 4 tablespoons of olive oil in it, and drink another protein shake after you drink and like 3 glasses of water. you'll be super duper a-okay

just mix 12oz beer with 1 scoop of whey and enjoy x 10 when i get drunk i remember to eat something, usually some cottage cheese or some sort of protien before i pass out, and drink one big glass of water and take another to bed with me.

^^

i wouldnt worry about it.. just get plenty of water before bed. maybe down some milk?

jonno i wouldnt worry about it.. just get plenty of water before bed. maybe down some milk? Im lactose intollerant.... thats why i switched from water to milk for my protein shakes.....

deznutz Im lactose intollerant.... thats why i switched from water to milk for my protein shakes..... scratch that then

honestly... this is all you need to know about hangovers etc. http://health.howstuffworks.com/hangover.htm

deznutz Im lactose intollerant.... thats why i switched from water to milk for my protein shakes..... soy milk!

Lots of water while drinking and lots more right before bed. Take 2 advil before you hit the sack as well. One of my most successful drinking nights happened when I was about 18 - I had 2 big macs right before my friend's party, and drank like a fucking beast and felt smooth all night (no crazy spikes and dips in drunkedness) and felt great in the morning. So drink lots of water and eat more than you normally do before the party and you're all set.

Children's Ped-A-Lite. Best stuff ever created for eliminating hangovers. Drink some before going to bed/passing out. Wake up and have some more.

im not worried about hangovers....more about the nutrition aspect... maybe i should eat less for dinner, that way i can have more cals when i drink?

1 beer is barely more alcohol than a shot = 100 - 150 cals 1 shot of liquor is barely less alcohol than a beer = 70cals, 0carbs,0fat,0protein. Alcohol is its own calorie.

I wouldnt even waste my time trying to eat right or goto the gym that night or the next 2 days...its pointless

Smoke a joint in the morning...

I am always fine to work out the day after I drink. Just eat good and drink lots of water and you are perfectly fine.

"Headaches result from dehydration because the body's organs try to make up for their own water loss by stealing water from the brain" man fuck that

Alcohol + Dairy = bad news For me at least

PurEvl I wouldnt even waste my time trying to eat right or goto the gym that night or the next 2 days...its pointless

Ru-21

As an experience alcoholic take my advice- protein slows the synthesis of alcohol, so eat that before you start drinking (usually a bunch of tuna or a steak or some chicken wtfever...). Before you go to bed, and if you are really drunk this can be hard to do, but try to get 4-5-6 glasses of water pounded. Thats all there is too it, if you don't drink the water you are fucked. Eating tons of bread won't soak it up or anything so don't bother. Another thing I found that helps out is to have pre-made healthy foods out for when you get the munchies, with your inhibitions down its easy to want to go grab fast food or something shitty...you will regret it the next day and feel like a fat ass. Just make something and put it in the fridge so later when you are stumbling around it will seem like a burried treasure and you can devour it

alcohol is 7 calories per gram, but the body doesnt use it for exercise. It's also a diuretic. Being drunk won't do anything do your muscles, just factor in the calories, and make sure you drink water and burn the Cals. eat less today so you are more easily affected by the alch...then eat more tomorrow after you've pissed it out.

Z PYRATE as an experienced alcoholic I can say that just chugging water before bed and not eating anything works just fine. fuck the protein you're body doesnt want to digest MORE while you're sleeping...its already working hard on the alcohol. and when you wake up with piss all over yourself, remember that

if you really care about the nutrition aspect of it, don't drink

I bet you can't make a workout for me.

I bet you can't make a workout for me.

I need a workout that is a 3 to 4 day split. I need compound exercises. This workout needs to focus on muscle tone more than actual mass.

you're right, i can't

day 1: upper body 1) flat bench- 4-6 sets of 4-6 reps 2) heavy triceps - 4-6 sets of 5-8 reps 3) barbell rows-4-6 sets of 8-10 reps 4) rear/side/front raises-4-5 sets of 10-15 reps 5) biceps - pick a movement and do 4 sets of whatever reps day 2: lower body 1) full squats-4-6 sets of 4-6 reps 2) romanian deadlift-4-5 sets of 8-10 reps 3) reverse hypers, pull through's, or back raises-4-5 sets of 8-12 reps 4) heavy ab work 5) optional extra quad movement if you want "burn", but 100% not neccesary day 3: upper body #2 1) dumbell bench-4-5 sets of 8-12 reps 2) volume triceps-pick an extention, 1/4 dips, etc-4-5 sets of 10-12 reps 3) chin ups/pullups-4-5 sets of 8-10 reps, weighted or not 4) overhead pressing once every 2 weeks-3-5 sets of 6-10 reps 5) biceps, pick one movement for 4-5 sets day 4: lower body #2 1) deadlifts or sumo deadlifts - 5-6 sets of singles, or triples. dont deadlift every single week. for those weeks you don't, take it easy. 2) step ups, single leg squats, lunges-3-5 sets of 8-12 reps 3) leg curls-3-6 sets of 10-12 reps 4) heavy abs

What's a reverse Hyper? Wouldn't that be almost like a situp?

TrickyDick8806 What's a reverse Hyper? Wouldn't that be almost like a situp? No.

If he really wanted our help, he would ask F&N PROPERLY instead of " " I bet you can't ... "

Now that I think of it. I feel like an idiot because this is probably a parody or something. Right?

OH NOES!!!11 Your advanced reverse psychology is too advanced for our feeble meathead minds.... clever boy!

Gutrat Now that I think of it. I feel like an idiot because this is probably a parody or something. Right? no, the guy just wants a brad pitt look

TrickyDick8806 Very tasteful. i will shit on your chest

SteveO no, the guy just wants a brad pitt look What? Brad Pitt? Well, then he'll have to get a leg double also.

Sgt. Ownage i will shit on your chest cleavland steamer style ??

If he really wanted our help, he would ask F&N PROPERLY instead of " " I bet you can't ... " Yeah, lets treat every new person like shit.

oh.. if you want to tone just do 63 reps of every exercise

By the way, for the record, he edited his post after I replied. If I saw the whole toning thing in there, I wouldn't have helped.

jonno oh.. if you want to tone just do 63 reps of every exercise and make sure you keep track, any more or less and teh workout will be worthless because of over/under training

Day 1: 1 hour of elliptical Day 2: 1 hour of running on treadmill Day 3: 1 hour of running outside Day 4: 1 hour of HIIT running outside Day 5: 1 hour of running long jump exercises Day 6: 1 hour of running through the sand on a beach Day 7: 1 hour of jumping off highest building you can find Make sure to take 7200 steps (2 per second) to get maximal toneness, there's your weekly routine, repeat as needed. edit: Oh damn you're a tricky one mr dick.

Enova(DAG) oil?

Enova(DAG) oil?

anyone have any opinions on it? i picked some up today to try and i cant distinguish it from other oils taste wise... 1. DAG's suppressing effect on body fat accumulation through long-term consumption in daily diet Kao, in conjunction with the Japanese Red Cross Society Kumamoto Healthcare Center, conducted a clinical trial in which 312 Japanese male and female volunteers consumed either DAG-rich oil or TAG-rich oil by replacing their cooking oil with the test oil at their homes for 1 year under double blind conditions. As a result, the DAG intake group showed significant decreases in body weight, BMI***, and subcutaneous fat thickness as compared with the TAG intake group, thus demonstrating DAG's effect in suppressing body fat accumulation. Percentage of participants who decreased or maintained their body weight after one yeariacylglycerol (DAG) intake group, 56%; Triacylglycerol (TAG) intake group, 42%; p<0.05 Percentage of participants whose BMI decreased by 1 unit or moreiacylglycerol (DAG) intake group, 21%; Triacylglycerol (TAG) intake group, 9.8%; p<0.05 Furthermore, analysis of a questionnaire on lifestyle habits, including dietary habits, showed that DAG was more effective in groups with sound dietary habits, i.e., dine out less, have less irregular meals and less instances of missed meals. This indicates the importance of keeping sound dietary habits in daily life. 2. DAG suppresses postprandial increase of serum TAG levels through daily meals The postprandial increase of serum TAG levels is regarded as a risk factor for arteriosclerosis. The trial was performed on 43 adult Japanese men and women using a double-blind cross over design. After ingesting one average Japanese breakfast meal (sandwiches, salad or consommé soup: 500 kcal) made with DAG-rich oil or TAG-rich cooking oil, blood samples were collected periodically for up to 6 hours and changes in serum TAG levels were examined. Among those with fasting serum TAG levels at or greater than 100mg/dL, 76% of subjects consuming DAG oil showed a lower postprandial increase of serum TAG levels compared with those who ingested the TAG-rich oil. In regard to remnant-like particle cholesterol (RLP-C)**** which relates to the acceleration of arteriosclerosis, 72% of subjects consuming DAG oil showed a lower postprandial RLP-C value compared with those who ingested the TAG-rich oil. Note:?In each trial, a composition of fatty acids in the TAG-rich oil, was adjusted to reflect that of DAG-rich oil, and participants were not informed which oil they had taken. Primary care by improving habits of eating and exercise plays an important role in the prevention of lifestyle-related diseases. Kao expects that DAG can play a part in it. Terminologies *Diacylglycerol (DAG): General edible oil contains 1-10% DAG in addition to the main ingredient triacylglycerol (TAG). TAG has a chemical structure in which three fatty acids are ester-bonded to a glycerin structure, while DAG has a chemical structure of two fatty acids ester-bonded to a glycerin structure.

no but its said to be significantly more healthy for you?

Enova(DAG) oil?

front squats vs regular squats

front squats vs regular squats

i've been doing front squats alot.. i love them discuss

Mike McDermott define "regular" squats bar on back. stance wider than shoulders

back squats > front squats at least in terms of comfort and the amount of weight I can use. When I first started they were almost the same but now I can almost back squat twice as much as my front squat.

Mike McDermott how deep? parallel

KetchupKing back squats > front squats at least in terms of comfort and the amount of weight I can use. When I first started they were almost the same but now I can almost back squat twice as much as my front squat. yeah i only get 150x5 on front squat.. going slightly below parallel

Mike McDermott so a PL squat? yes.

front seem to hit teh glutes better

Mike McDermott i'll utilize chris's sister's glutes

Mike McDermott i'll utilize chris's sister's glutes ohsnap!

I do back squats to parallel with a wide stance. I do front squats to below parallel with a narrow stance. Fronts seem to hit my quads more and toast my lower back.

Mike McDermott damn, too late to edit

Mike McDermott do front squats all the way down, ya homos what do you front squat? ibmorethanme

no ATF squats no care.

Mike McDermott i haven't done them in awhile 275? i don't remember jesus

did front squats this week as opposed to rear, was a good change. I feel more comfortable with front squats(form wise) than rears.

you guys use pads for front squats? the bar hurts the shit outta my shoulders with just 135 if i dont

No pad on front squats. I'll admit to wrapping a towel around the bar for heavy Zercher squats though

a pad would make it feel really akward for me

pads are awkward front squats is a machien right? if so they dont have them where i go. either squats, or plate loaded squat machine which is kinda like a leg press, but its on a hinge, not a straight bar going up and down. hack squat too.

christophers we use a front squat harness so haw haw Lucky . My gym sucks.

i dont rest the bar on my shoulders when i do them, i actually hold the bar with my hands, wrist pain? hell yes 111x3 best. (kg) i guess i formed it as a habit doing power cleans instead of squat cleans.

oh front squats is where hold the bar on your shoulders in front of your face right? i like those.

Mike McDermott damn, too late to edit Its ok, what is that babyfaced, gaming nerd gonna do?

Driver's License Weight vs Current Weight

Dumbell vs. Barbell press

Dumbell vs. Barbell press

Which one do you prefer? How does one translate into another? ie. 100lb dumbells = ___lb on barbell...is there a rule of thumb?

this has been covered extensively - probably every other week do a search

i swear by the DB, and i think im the only one...but alternate db and bb

DB myself, but every 3 workouts i'm on the BB

I can't control my lifts as well as I'd like so the bigger weights are usually BB, lever or smith.. But I prefer DB for certain exercises

Filmboy44 DB myself, but every 3 workouts i'm on the BB me too

Perplexed This forum is starting to get annoying it's the boobs, isnt it? i told them to stay at home

Perplexed This forum is starting to get annoying Blasphemy.

db press fucks up my left shoulder. i prolly bring the dumbells too low. i do bb

I prefer DB because i like to go to failure and i rarely have a spot and it's easier than searching the gym for someone who can spot me everytime i want to do a set but if I have a spot I like BB because I can move more weight and i feel better about myself How does one translate into another? ie. 100lb dumbells = ___lb on barbell...is there a rule of thumb? Generally people DB press less than they can BB press, but there's no general rule of thumb for how much...

I do bofe. Barbell for teh power, dumbbell to fill in the blanks.

i stick to db's because bb hurts my shoulder, but i'll screw around on it every once in a while with really light weight for old times sake.
