BIG MAN! BIG MAN! LET'S HUMP THIS SHIT UP!

Tube

Here is my awesome weightlifting program which you should do because it's great and I'm great.

I am in a "bulking cycle" and am eating a ton of food and am always super hungry but I am lifting things and RAWR. I think I'm going to have to join a gym because things like calf raises and shrugs are just killing my grip, and I have little girl legs because I can only squat however much I can clean, which isn't much.

Good, I was hoping you'd make a second thread once the first closed.


So uhhh... what are the chances of just plain sticking this, you know...

Since it's good for info and whatnot?

Tube

I dunno, it's never been stickied before, and I think the enemies post is more important. Just keep it bumped by posting rocking information every time you work out. Here is today's food what I done eat

26/1/08
10:51 am Shake interrupted
12: 05 rest of shake and apple
14: 00 omelette
15.08 3 chocolate rolls
Note to self, do not buy more chocolate rolls
workout
18: 25 two chicken breasts, two carrots
20:30Packet of crisps and pint of coke
21:30Nando’s Half Chicken with rice and soft drink
Orange juice
01: 40 Shake

Lets see, today I had;

8-15 cigarettes
water
a pill
3 bites of a gyro

and as for workout, I can't.

I don't have time or means too today.

So it's been a really shitty day regarding workouts and nutrition.

Zonugal

I ate:

1. A slice of cheese pizza
2. Two small Sprite sodas
3. Two pieces of Bubbalicious gum
4. A turkey BLT
5. Two small cartons of chocolate milk

Dinner is soon approaching.

Do you guys think I'm eating enough? on paper it seems like a lot of food but I'm still often hungry. I never thought I could eat a full fuck off nando's and be hungry later in the evening

I thought the big FLIES next to the title was so it wouldn't have to be stickied. It makes the thread easy to find.

My girlfriends dietician said that when you have an 8-small-meals-a-day diet you're metabolism works a lot harder, I don't know the reasoning behind it but I experienced the same thing as you did: 3 big meals would fill me up and several smaller meals would not.

I guess the best thing you could do is have a breakfast that is higher in fibre instead of just the omelette and drink a lot of water between meals.


Some days I'll just eat like ten weet-bix for breakfast so I can pump a huge shit in the afternoon.

okay i got my gym membership today

i'm alternating between these two routines

Workout A
3x5 Squat
3x5 Bench press
1x5 Deadlift
2x5-8 dips
3x5 incline weighted sit-ups
3x8 hyperextensions

Workout B
3x5 Squat
3x5 Standing military press
3x5 Bent-over rows
2x5-8 pull-ups
3x5 incline weighted sit-ups
3x8 hyperextensions

based on the routine from starting strength

i'd do tube's routine, but i only got two days a week and i don't know a couple of those excersizes

plus mark rippetoe knows a lot about lifting and such

Starfuck

i'm going to be PSMF'ing it up for the next few weeks starting sunday.
i am a horrible beast when i am hungry, people will suffer

Stale

I'm doing a lot of cardio on the treadmill


then I play DDR for like... 3 hours.

Starfuck

is it upskirt DDR?

the wook

okay so I managed to salvage most of the skin on my fingers with proper bandaging technology

i'm hopeful that i'll be able to lift again by Tuesday

Dhalphir

do you fine chaps not wear lifting gloves?

i used to think "rawr, toughen the skin on my hands" but after i had to go two weeks without a workout because of my skin being red raw, i changed my mind.

Starfuck

no gloves
but i will use chalk

When you eat a lot of small meals a day your metabolism never stops working so therefore you're constantly burning calories and whatnot. The only reason I know this is because I USED to eat a lot of small meals a day until my doctor said I needed to GAIN weight. I bet my metabolism is fucked, I've not had it checked in a few years.

Now, though, I'm getting ready to do some hardcore working out to get into the Police Academy so I dunno how that's going to affect it.

I.. uh... lifted a bunch of fucking heavy boxes for 4 hours this morning. Thats about the extent of my exercise every day.

so there's that

Kusuguttai

Mark Rippetoe is better than me on every level that a human being can be better.

Using gloves is actually not great for you.

redhead

what is wrong with it

Tube

You can't get as good a grip on the bar, and by putting a piece of cloth between you and the bar you're increasing the bar diameter and making it harder to get a good grip.

redhead

I see

so are you just totally against gloves forever in every situation or are there times in which they are appropriate

I ate today:

3 weetbix with honey and a ham and cheese roll for breakfast

A bowl of rice with the usual additives for lunch

Then I got home and ate half a bowl of rice again, then I pigged out on the equivelant to a packet of chocolate.

I will get this right dammit

redhead

today I was gonna eat dinner but instead I drank it

I'm not used to that

Defender

I used to use gloves because it seemed to increase the maximum amount I could bench press. I guess because I wasn't distracted by the bar pressing as hard into my hands?

Now I don't, because grappling pretty much means you want tougher hands, so building callouses is to my advantage. Not that I'll ever have strong hands, anyway.

Perdurabo

God damn have I had the worst cold this week, not done shit - next week will be better. A workout before work always gives me a load of energy during the day, which makes no sense. Always wake up with these horrific boners during the night when I've been to the gym, too... not that anyone needs to know that.

Hopefully when I go back on monday the new years resolution retards will have gotten bored and fucked off - doing curls in front of the squat rack is asking for a kick in the nuts

Defender

Thanks for telling me about those boners.

Critical

I lift big fuck off boxes for four hours each morning five days a week. Since I started the job, my strength has probably increases at least 50%. I used to be a little girly man, now I'm a stronger little girly man.

Zombot

I think I have the flu.
Looks like I won't be working out for a while.

if you work with radioactive materials, go ahead and use gloves. In the gym, don't.

I hate biking, man.

Today I ate mostly canapes and crisps

Defender

I am really enjoying lean ground turkey. Today with some orange/yellow peppers. Mmmmmm good!

Would a chicken caesar pita fall under the category of "healthy food"?

what if you walk on your hands?

or use them as brakes?


because when I was still in the chair or on the sticks, I wore awesome gloves.

Caesar dressing is often pretty unhealthy. Look at the ingredients and nutritional data.
