The Official Gym & Fitness Thread

The first time I ever cut a few years ago I got the headaches, but I was way way to low on calories and once I upped my carbs and water they went away.

 

Good to know, thanks!

 

A workout does wonders for my mood/attitude when I go at lunch, granted I'll be pissy by the time 5 o'clock gets here, but at least I reset the meter!

 

Sounds fun!

 

My girlfriends lab just did a 3 month study on crossfit and regular aerobic training.

They had a control group, a crossfit group and a group doing aerobics(running) for 3 months.

All groups followed a diet routine.

The Aerobic group had the biggest loss in body fat. And biggest changes in body composition.

The crossfit group did manage to gain muscle but also gained body fat and their body comp for the most part stayed the same or became higher fat content.

Conclusion: the crossfit workouts do not require as many calories as regular aerobics(jogging). There for the crossfit group did not lose as much fat or exhibit the changes in body comp.

This study will be published soon. They are finishing all the bloodwork and data now. Just thought some other guys may be interested.

I'm gonna go grab my umbrella and get ready for the shit storm on the horizon..

 

They had about 150 total participants.

Each group worked out 4 times a week. They were all on a diet routine.

The aerobics group lost weight. Their body fat went down.

The crossfit group stayed close in weight but gained body fat on average.

They are working on doing another study larger and maybe working with other labs. I'm not sure when the results will be published. I'll keep everyone posted.

 

had a banana, 2 scoops myofusion, and 6 almonds 45 minutes before my workout today, had lots of energy

 

i hate lifting with a headache

 

I am in castle rock Colorado for a day any of you Colorado guys want to let me come work out with you?

 

back at a local gym.... moved out of my condo so i lost access to the private gym but its alright. more equipment. did arms workout today. thinking about doing chest tomrrow, however my arms will get worked a fair bit during chest, and they need a rest day. maybe ill try legs instead, or core.

 

how do yall get rid of hair? made a bet with my mom and lost so she "waxed" me....she couldnt stand to see me in pain so she suggested i use nair to match the stips she waxed offf...now i have a stubbly red chest with burning nipples....but i like the look minus the stubble and sore nipples

 

I naturally don't really grow body hair haha. And no sideburns. Just a goatee like joe dirt!

People always ask if I shave my arms and legs and shit. I guess I was just born lucky.

 

Shave my arms. And I don't have much body hair thankfully lol

 

I just use hair clippers, keeps it short without having to shave. Shaved my legs once when I was big into cycling, won't do that again.

Itchy as fuck when the hair started growing back in.

 

i almost did a full muscle up 3 times the other day. I did about 85% of the motion.
