    Honestly I think the big draw zyzz had was that he went from being a forever-alone WoW addict to an aesthetic dude who lived a life without doing things he wanted. The steroids are bad, but he still made impressive physique changes nevertheless.

    Well I've been trying to make gains lately. I notice that a lot of people complain about eating right, but honestly I find it entertaining. It's amusing seeing other people look in disgust at what you're eating. Lately I've been eating some oatmeal squares mixed with chocolate whey and peanut...

    How is your bench higher than your squat/dead? My squat is 215, dead 225, but only bench 145. o_0

    I had that in Feburary. It is indeed golfer's elbow. I couldn't play tennis for a month an a half, and they sent me to physical therapy. Strenghtening your forearm muscles will help a lot with it. They had me doing a lot of gripping weights, wrist curls, riding on an arm bike, and light...

    No wonder you hate tuna so much. Bagged tuna? Sounds disgusting. I get chicken of the sea tuna light cans.

    I'm a big fan of microwave cheese omelettes. Sometimes I'll also use whey to make my own sort of homeade protein bar goo (lol). But yeah, for me oats + whey + fruit or peanut butter is a staple; it's cheap and relatively efficient. You can also try mixing greek yogurt with whey; it makes like...

    I do a 3-day full body split. Bis/chest, shoulders/back, and legs/triceps. I was aiming to not do chest/tris, because I've heard it was more effective to have them on separate days to better exhaust each one, so I did chest/bs, because I didn't want to squat and deadlift on the same day or...

    Well some good pectoral exercises would be cable cross-overs, flies, pec dec, and incline/flat/decline bench. My chest/bicep day looks like this. 3x8 Incline bench 3x8 Flat Bench 3x8 Decline smith Bench 3x8 Hammer curls 3x8 Cable Curls 3x8 Barbel curls I'm thinking about swapping in some...

    Mix some cottage cheese in it. I know it sounds morbid, but try it. To me that tastes far better than either alone (it also is far more protein!)

    Well after today I finally know why people say squats are good for your core. Before I never really felt them much there, but today I went from a 155 squat to a 185 squat. I was a little hesitant to try it, but the weights at my gym only go from 2.5>5>10>25>35>45 and I didn't feel like adding...

    Have you been making gains? I don't really know about SL, as I don't follow it at all, but if you're increasing your weights higher than you could do before, you should start to weigh more. I gained about 4.4lb in around a month and a half from what I do. 150 > 154.4 :D I'm 5'10" for the...

    What I fail to see though is that if you have shit form to begin with, how will doing tons of shit form squats/deads at lower weights help you as you're building up? Aside from being less likely to kill yourself I mean. I don't know about you guys, but I've been watching rippetoe vids on...

    I gotta say, the one reason I don't really do stronglifts is because I think it's a bit odd that you have to start so low. I don't know about you guys, but squatting and deadlifting has come pretty easy for me so far. I started at about 135 on both and moved up to 155 in less than a month...

    I would definitely not try to do leg extensions instead of squats. Leg extensions are terrible for your knees as are leg curls. If you squat and deadlift that should basically cover your legs unless you want to do a bit of leg press after squatting sometime. (don't have to) Also, if your...

    I get that machines are bad, so I don't use those, but in my opinion cables are kind of like the little brother to free weights. To me, the reason that machines suck is because you aren't using any stabilizer muscles. With cables though, you have the ability to move the weight around still to...

    Alright guys, so instead of some corny workout program that I have to adhere to for 60 days or whatever, I'd decided to try to make my own sort of thing. I joined a gym and I'm trying to start going about 3 days a week and play tennis in between. I'm trying to do a full body workout program...

    When I used to be in track, they told us to breathe in our nose and out our mouth. Breathing in your nose helps keep your lungs from having spasms because your nose works as a sort of air purifier. Don't know if it's true or not, but for me at least when I run in the cold I have less asthma...

    When I was at physical therapy for golfer's elbow, I used one of those. It helps strengthen your forearms and hand muscles a bit, but don't expect it to make all that much of a difference. I might be wrong with that though, since I already had really strong hands and forearms though from...

    I have looked into it a lot lately actually. I like his workouts that he has put on youtube, they seem better than what I've been doing... It seems the basis of it is that they do more compound workouts than p90x but also using HIIT. I'm sure you know a lot more about this type of thing than...

    Any of you guys ever hear of athlean x? I'm pretty sure that I'm going to try it, because it seems like it'd be relatively easy to go on with good results likely. It seems like it's similar to p90x, but takes less time and allegedly gives better results. http://athleanx.com/ They have a...
