    They've had a good week against Atlanta. Maybe that pathetic "brawl" sparked a light under their asses. I do find it stupid that Farrell made a big fuss about the Rays stealing third in a 5 run game. The next day Boston was down 6-1 and came back to win. F'n Halos are the M's b!tches this year. The fact that the fat man still plays Ibanez makes me sick. I'd say the same about Pujols but with what they're paying him the only hope I got is retirement. Hopefully Hamilton gets back soon, suffered a setback in a rehab start. Anyway, I fully expect the sox to get back to their winning ways where I'm just hanging on over here in halo land.

    I roughly do the same thing. I just have a vector bar and a coffee as I drive to the gym. My body reacts better to coffee than most pre workout supplements (haven't tried a wide variety tho). I prefer doing cardio on a empty stomach as well, but if I don't put anything in my stomach I start feeling a little weak during my workout. So i just have a vector bar to give me a little energy. I usually have a can of tuna and some brown rice after my workout so I know food's coming.

    Hopefully Darrin Reaves can be what we hoped Barner would be

    Haven't read through this in awhile, hope everyone's doing good. Do many of you change up your workouts and diets for the summer? Just about beach season up north here! The great life of sandwhiches and pasta are coming to an end. Now it's chicken stir fry and cans of tuna for the next couple of months. Really going to try and keep alot of the muscle I gained over the winter but we'll see. As I do more and more cardio combined with my carb intake being lowered I do lose my muscle and strength even though I continue with my usual workouts. But it's just for a few months, summer here blows.

    @josephperson: Panthers expected to sign Canadian OT David Foucault, who was at rookie minicamp as a tryout player.

    I refuse to wear gloves, just a personal preference thingy. But I'm just gunna bring chalk in next time, not like ill make a mess so it shouldn't be a big deal. But I got 315 up 3 times... its a good start!

    Crappy thing about my gym is that he doesn't allow chalk. Chalk makes such a huge differene when benching or doing most things.

    Running is what help me cut weight the fastest when I slimming down to nothing to start fresh. But I've recently had a change in plans and have decided to bulk up again. Plus it's helps with me job if I'm bigger. But anyway, I don't have great knees to begin with and I ran the other day to sweat out some alcohol and for the last few weeks I've had to tape my knees. I'm 26 and walking around the gym with tape on my knees to hold them in place lol! I swear I have the body of an 80 year old man. But I've been going heavy again, and I've already put on about 20 pounds slowly since Xmas. I have a thicker build so it's easy for me to gain good weight as long as it's good calories I'm putting into my body. Starting benching again last week for the first time in forever. Going for 315 a few times today, pretty pumped to get there and do this. Miss benching, but had to stop because my chest seems to grow faster than all my other muscles.

    Slamming the weights on cables or machines is probably my number 1 pet peeve at the gym, right up there with the idiots that walk around like their lats are 10x bigger than they actually are.

    My buddy is on just about everything under the sun right now so I'm lifting heavier again to try and keep up. Kind of at an unfair advantage so I don't expect to win this. But I was able to hammer out 4-5 reps of Arnold's with 70's the other day. Was kind of pumped about that. My buddy is doing 80's not sure if that reachable but ill keep trying. Focusing on shoulders and legs lately. Doing Leg press just about every second day now. For OnlypantherfaninMaine I had the same problem with appetite and crap. But I literally just toughed it out for a month or so and my appetite decreased and my stomach definitely shrunk. I found it hard to start bulking again because I couldn't eat big meals. But I also know people that do the 2 hour thing like Mr.Belding said. All about finding what works best for you.

    Perfect, thanks!

    Read some of you guys take your kids to the gym, I have 3 foster kids and just got a family membership at my gym for them. My 13 year old enjoys it and has been coming with me everyday now for 2 weeks. The other two are loss causes, just keeping them out of jail is good. But he's concerned because one of his "pecs" is bigger than the other lol. But at that age typically which every side is dominant one is going to be bigger. He mainly likes to go for the scenery though, so he's the perfect workout partner for me.

    I seriously have about 4 bowls of cereal a day. I love cereal and milk and there's no chance I stop eating it. Usually eat mini wheats if I wanna keep it clean, Vector or some Almond oatmeal crisp for a treat. Vector is heavy so I won't eat that after dinner. Might have to try out your recipe though. Does it taste ok? Obvious answer would be "yes, or why would I eat it" but if you're like me, if it tastes good that's usually a bonus.

    No.... But seriously those stair climbers are a hell of a workout. Sometimes I find those stairs harder than actual running.
  16. *FreeFua*
    Yep, it's all about getting in a good routine. Eventually after awhile you'll feel crappy for not going to the gym.

    I love chewing gum and actually can't workout without it. But I remember someone telling me that chewing gum triggers something blah blah blah and your body thinks it's getting food when it's not (which isn't good). I'm guessing you have a bit of a stomach ache after chewing gum all morning before eating lunch?

    What time do you workout at? I cut out bread for a whole year. Honestly the hardest thing I've ever done. It was easier to cut out junk food. I love breakfast, I try to have mini wheats or a vector bar before the gym. I need something or I just feel weak and tired at the gym.

    Yogurts good, I forgot that used to be my snack inbetween breakfast and lunch. If you don't mind Greek yogurt it's high in protein. Took me about a month of choking it down to finally not mind eating it. Yeah, ill try and eat a little more for dinner just so I don't end up roaming around the kitchen later in the night. Bananas are definitely something I need to start buying, there a good filler and good after a workout.

    Curious to know what some of your guys meals look like during a regular day? Last year when I was cutting like crazy I was on the good ol chicken and spinach, egg whites, and more chicken diet. Now that I'm just trying to maintain my weight and don't drink protein shakes or any of that stuff. I usually have a vector bar before the gym just for energy and just to get something in me since I work out first thing in the morning. Then I usually have a sandwich on whole wheat bread with spinach and chicken or I will have pasta with a decent amount of extra lean ground beef in it. Dinner ill have eggs and some toast or which ever one of my usually 2 lunch thingys I didn't have. I also eat alot of Mini Wheats, I love cereal and milk and I always will. I often get lazy and just have Mini Wheats for many meals since there's no sodium in Mini Wheats. Oh yeah, and sometimes ill just quickly pop a can of tuna in my mouth for lunch if I'm feeling really lazy or just want some protein. I rarely eat junk food and if I do I designate a day of the week to do it (cheat day). With Xmas just passing, I had my fair share of crap and haven't craved anything like candy or chocolate since. I'm not a calorie counter and never will be, but I do watch my sodium intake and always checking the amount of sodium in something before I buy it. I hate cooking and have no issues with eating the same crap daily. Just curious what some of you guys eat?

    Merry Xmas Gym Rats! It's ok to cheat for the next 48 hours... As long as you make it a Tredmill Thursday!

    Good call, legs will definitely tire you out for the day. Yeah, I think ill start taking Saturday's off instead now. I get so restless just laying around the house watching football all day. Not like those pre game shows are any good anyway, so its not like we're missing anything.

    Sunday is usually my day off but Im going to try something new today. Gonna go to the gym right now and hopefully exhaust the crap out of myself so Im too tired to yell at the TV this afternoon.

    Ah hadn't seen this thread or forgot it was here, normally just stay in the main forum. Nice to see some of you hit the gym. I'm in the gym 5-6 times a week for the better part of the morning. A few years ago I was all about getting as big as possible (naturally) and was benching 315lbs 6 times in a set. I was 6 foot and roughly 225llbs. Some of that 225 was fat due to being done high school and not playing sports anymore. So 2 years ago I cut out almost all sodium and carbs for a whole year. Got down to 175lbs, and was running every day. I wanted a fresh start and wanted to re shape my body so I figured just completely starting over was the best way. I'm back up to 200lbs, I eat clean as hell and do everything naturally. I work out because I enjoy it and need to release stress and helps tire me out. Those days of going to the gym and lifting with spots and that crap are over for me. Don't get me wrong I still work out hard as hell but it's a different kind of work out now with more reps and cardio and super setting.
