The Official Gym & Fitness Thread

Thanks! I cycle on and off jack3d. I train hard and diet well I'm just a little guy and a hard gainer!

 

ya that jack3d stuff is nuts man....get your ready for some work outs lol....i been trying to gain weight to no avail.....gaining weight is harder than i thought it would be

 

I've been dojng jacked for about a year. Love it

 

you guys want a workout do crossfit...ive lifted with members of team usa powerlifting..trained with the strongest pound for pound bencher in the us and done mma for 3 yrs.....crossfit is the best thing you can do...intense cardio combined with heavy as weight....your body will change an youll get stronger ,harder,leaner,and faster then ever before...i highly recomend

 

Just keep in mind, Jack3d will give false positive readings for amphetamines...from info I received while in the military, they are about to restrict its use. Just be careful with it!

 

gaining weight prior to indoc is the last thing you want to do... muscle dont float

 

very solid lift bro. nice job

have you seen the vibram five finger shoes? you should get some, wont have to expose everybody else to your smelly ass feet

once you try them, you wont lift with out them

side note: what you do in CSAR?

 

Mon - Legs (box squats, romanian deadlifts, calves till they burn like hell)
Tue - Chest (bench press, incline, cable flys, dips, whatever I'm feeling at the time really)
Wed - Shoulders (front & side lat raises, shoulder press, reverse flys, extra core workouts as well)
Thu - Back (chin ups, deadlifts, bent over rows, dumbell rows)
Fri - (pretty much whatever I feel like I slacked on that week, extra arm and core stuff)

Eat tons of great food, focus on protein and vegtables (IMO) Take a multivitamin twice a day (no iron in it!) If you're gonna constantly destroy your muscles you gotta give your body what it needs to rebuild them.

 

Thanks matt. Vibrams....boo that. Because it seems to be the trend at my gym, I refuse to wear them. I do the shoes off thing at the beginning so my feet aint stank yet. Lol. Im a crew chief at nellis afb. I dont know any j's that would have been around your time frame. Though, I probably know some of your instructors at indoc. Maybe, even the commandant.

 

lol... i understand not wanting to confrom... but they really are kick ass shoes.

now that you say you're at nellis i seem to remember already asking you that question...lol

when i was in indoc my commmandant was msgt thompson... you know him?

he's at least as senior by now... maybe cheif...IDK

keep up the heavy ass lifting man!!!

 

Speaking of not wanting to conform, I got some Merrell True Glove's today. Same technology as Vibram's and Skele-toes but without the funny toes. They still look goofy, but are very comfortable. Haven't done a leg or back workout in them yet but I'll post up how it goes here when I do!

 

agreed
love it

 

For those of you who work out. I'm looking to get into a little better shape but dont necessarily want to go to the gym. Is there any workouts at home I can do w/o equipment?

 

Run, push-ups, pull-ups (you can find a door jam pull-up bar for like 15 bucks) crunches/sit-ups, jump-rope

 

I finally joined a gym about 2 months ago after working out in my basement. Much better gains with better equipment. Plus going with my roommate, we can motivate each other. I've gained 6 pounds which for me is a lot with my metabolism. Small genes in my family, I'm 5'11" and 140.

 

ooppsss thanks for the heads up

good point.

 

Yea but you've been working out since birth lol
