Train wreck was hilarious Cena fuckin killed it in that movie

 

Yea, I was contemplating watching the movie but Amy Schumer...meh

 

She's kind of annoying but Cena made that movie worth it for me. LeBron James and Hader were good too.

 

I may give it another shot solo just for Cena

 

The shit Cena was saying was just too funny to me. He was like the typical insecure bodybuilder dbag.
Like me! Except I'm not swole.

 

I have a class with a lot of women studies/feminist. Today we talked about men and competing. Pretty sure everything was directed at me

 

There's 2 things in this world I hate: people who are intolerant of others' personal beliefs and a fucking feminist






Get it............

 

Lol, I dont mind most feminist and generally agree with many of the topics brought up. This one just constantly talks about gender identification and how it explains everything about everyone. We were discussing why being a cowboy would appeal to recently freed slaves. She believed it solely had to do with men trying to compete with each other. While it was as simple as being appreciated for the hard work they contributed and the skills they obtained. The discussion was completely derailed and seemed very direct at a select few in the class.

 

I would not survive in that class lol. That's like all the people getting up in arms about race issues. You can make anything a race/gender/equality issue if you try hard enough.

Also, I was kidding about getting mad about intolerant people. I'm all about free speech, but I'm also all about not being an asshole to people for no reason. I hate everyone equally

 

I'll just leave this here

 

I have no idea what I'm looking at lol

 

how to train for desired outcomes
For instance. Higher rep range grows sacroplasmic aspect of muscle better which is great for growing big. However it helps little to increase your strength or power and vise versa

 

Oh okay, I gotcha. So for the best combo of size and strength, anywhere from 1-20 reps is what you wanna do, correct?

 

Not sure if serious.

 

Well, for strength it says the best is 1-3 reps and for sacroplasmic hypertrophy it says from 13-20, so for a combo of the two, you be between 1 and 20 (minus reps 4-12, though)

Edit: so, if you did 2 chest days per week and did one day of reps ranges 1-3 and the next day rep ranges 13-20, you're getting the best of both worlds, unless I'm just missing something...

 

I always love when the fitness guys show their workouts on YouTube and always are like "do this exercise 4 sets 6-30 reps". Like Dah fuq, that's a pretty wide range to get your results.

 

I guess, but I'd shoot for the sweet spot in the middle instead if you're going for the best of both worlds. I think the chart helps you more if you're leaning one way more then the other. Example- A bodybuilder doesn't need the strength to go with the size so for him, training in the 1-3 rep range is rather pointless but 10-20 would be rather beneficial.

 

There's some guy in the gym right now doing legs in leggings or some kind of yoga pants and one of those 3xl women's shirts with shit written across the shoulders. I shit you not.

 

Pics or it didn't happen

 

If I run across him again I'll snag one. He's with (what I assume to be) his girlfriend, who's clothes I'm pretty sure he is wearing
