I'm about to start a round of P90X. It just works for me. I don't buy into all the bro science bullshit about "muscle confusion" and all that mumbo jumbo. It's basically just a diet plan and a circuit training workout schedule with rest and recovery built in by focusing on different muscle groups. It's just a regiment that works for me because it's laid out in simple form and requires very little equipment. Just follow the plan. It's not rocket science. If you watch your diet and track your nutrition while working out at a good pace for 45 minutes a day you're going to rapidly improve your physical condition.

I can agree with this. I literally need someone to list step by step what to do and I'll follow it. Makes it easy and takes the thinking and mental roadblocks out of it. I've done a full P90x once, and some other Beach Body offerings here and there.

That's why, for the past few years - I've literally just ran 3 miles 2-3 times per week as a means of maintenance. It' simple, takes under 30 minutes and I can do it by walking outside and taking off.

Stop eating/drinking processed sugar.  I did it to help inflammation in my joints.  Lost 10 pounds in like 3 weeks.  Diddnt have much to lose but I became pretty ripped.  Simple and easy way to start.

 

Basically drink water and black coffee.  Plain tea.

And just don't eat anything that comes in a wrapper.

Truth. The one common thread between all the different extreme and/or fad diets is avoiding sugar, processed foods, and simple carbs. Makes sense to pretty much just start there since those are the things that virtually everyone can agree on. Keto, vegan, vegetarian, carnivore, Mediterranean, whatever... they're all trying to avoid or at least significantly limit sugar, processed foods, and simple carbs.

Yea im not a health nazi or anything.  I really was just trying to find a solution to all the pain I wake up in everyday thats not in pill form.  Read that any non natural sugar is just horrible for you so I laid off.  I was not looking to lose weight at all but did pretty quick.  If I can go from 170 to 160 and not really look any different I would imagine it would work great for anyone trying to drop 30, 40 or 50 pounds.  Its the easiest diet in the world really.  I do still drink beer on Friday and sometimes Saturday night tho.  😬 

 

I did notice for about 4 days after I cut it out I felt extremely tired.  Then once that period ended I started to feel 10 years younger and thats not an exaggeration.

      DJ Moore trade talk

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Yes, he's a tier above them, but you also touched on the money side of it.  With T-Mac locked in as our #1 on a rookie contract for a few more years, I'd much rather use that money that would be needed for DJ on our defense and develop Coker into our #2.   Especially given his contract situation as an UDFA, as his contract is up at the end of this year but we can keep him around for a 3rd team controlled year on the real cheap.  Which means we probably could get him to sign a very reasonable extension this offseason to give him a little more money while giving us a bargain contract for what he provides. DJ's contract is north of $20 million for the next 5 years, why pay that for your #2 WR with the needs we have on defense and you have guys like Coker, XL, and Horn on rookie contracts who very well could combine to be a serviceable 2-4 WRs behind a stud in T-mac? I love DJ and he'd be a great fit on this team as our #2, but the money side of it just makes absolutely zero sense, that's all it comes down to for me on this one. And no, I don't see the Bears wanting XL back in that trade, because they drafted Burden, who is essentially a better version of what XL provides, a player you want to get the ball into their hands and let them go to work.

      This has to be bitached about, those biased refs

      By fanpanther · Posted

      I didnt see that many bad calls in the panthers cowboys game, but the chiefs especially in the playoffs were getting every single call they could get then the refs when it didnt matter would throw a call towards the other teams.  That I believe was the taylor swift effect.   But its crazy just thinking about how easy it is to change a game.  You dont need but a single ref to make a few close calls go towards one team over the other and in the nfl that is the game.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By CRA · Posted

      I don't think it's unrealistically blaming Bryce Young......to say has been a reason, sometimes a big one, in why our pass offense overall has been extremely week over the past 3 collective seasons.  I think that bothering anyone, is just being overly invested in some Bryce Young argument.  It's just a reality.
