If they told Trudeau that he would probably pay them out of his own pocket to have 3 kids.

Just made a post about the grope not realizing there’s a thread on the traitor already.

Cardio for long periods of time deteriorates muscle and decreases your testosterone just so you know.

Hey guys, whats your opinion of Omega 3 fish oil? I'm thinking about getting some but was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on a brand to get. I was gonna get either Nordic Naturals Ultimate or the GNC Triple Strength fish oil.

I miss it already.

You guys ever hit the sauna after a workout? I know idealy you would have an icebath or something to help repair but would the heat have the opposite effect of the sauna actually be bad for you? The other thing im worried about would be going to the sauna immediatly after lifting and not getting protein in me after the workout.

Anyone have any tips to improve my pullup endurance? Currently doing 4 sets of pullups about 8 reps each set.. Looking to hit 10 reps per set. Would doing weighted pullups have any affect on my pullup endurance? I've been doing regular pullups for months and seem to have plateud a bit, is there any way I should mix things up or just keep pushing it?

I need help chosing a protein powder from GNC.. The guy at the store recommeded GNC Mass I.V. or Mutant Mass but i'm not sure if I want just a simple protein shake or an actual weight gainer. I'm a slim hard gainer and I already eat 3-4 healthy meals a day normally so I wouldn't mind having some extra calories.. Here is a link to the stuff: http://www.gnc.com/G...ductId=12409765 He also mentioned that you want 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight, so if I'm 155 and want to get to 170 he recommended 170 grams of protein a day. Does this sound right? I'm thinking about just getting this Dymatize whey protein shake http://www.gnc.com/Dymatize-Nutrition-Elite-Gourmet-Protein-Milk-Chocolate/product.jsp?productId=3557101

Thanks a lot dude for your help.. I'm getting gains still so I'm gonna keep going by myself and just keep at it. I don't like taking supplements too much but besides trying to keep a good diet I'm gonna add the mega men sport multivitamin and the Muscle Mlk brand whey protein shake to my diet.. I feel as if a protein shake will be an important thing for me to take because im a hard gainer. Do you know if these are good products or would you recommend another? I can't shop online right now was probably just gonna hit up gnc..

Cool, thanks for the video.. Noone answered this but do you guys recommend taking a multi-v and if so, is GNC mega men sport a good one to take? Also, are the BCAA's that are in protein shakes enough to suffice? Lastly, how can I find a good personal trainer? I don't want some unathletic guy who preaches isolation exercises...

The games will come im sure.. So Netflix does work for PS4 in Canada? I honestly dont know much about netflix as all because ive been a Torrenter for countless years now. Is it worth it to get Netflix? $8 a month is pretty cheap.

So NBA 2k14 is good for ps 4? I'm gonna get a ps4 and will need a game to play. Also, Netflix is only 8$ a month?? I have always just torrented but with netflix you can get all tv shows and movies? Sorry I'm s netflix nub..

Thanks for your opinion and you're probably right. I'm going to have to experiment and see what works. I was thinking about hiring a fitness trainer for a month or two but I'm a little worried about finding the right guy. Any tips on finding a good fitness trainer? Does anyone have any experience with GNC Mega Men Sport multivitamin? I was thinking about giving it a shot. Right now I'm just taking some Centrum and I'm sure there is better multis out there. Also are the BCAA's that are in protein drinks often enough? I don't want to take any supplements besides a multi, some whey protein and possibly fish oil.. I took glutamine when I was younger and it may have helped too... Never in my life have I taken creatine before though.

I was doing the short session of hIIT before lifts for multiple reasons 1) it was the routine I followed when working out with a pro football player in his off season. 2) I noticed fast gains in strength, improved resting heart rate/ cardiovascular fitness and didn't have any ill effects. As well as improving explosiveness and burning fat. 3) sprints are a crucial part of sports.. I believe in an nfl combine they don't even test your squat strength they test your 40 yard dash and vertical jump. Basically I'm trying to keep the same routine I was doing before because the results we're amazing. Think about what an athlete has to do in the court/field, a basketball player has to sprint down the court and then do a explosive movement to either dunk or beat another player. A football player (depending on position) has to sprint then explode. I think the hIIT before lifting is to try to mimic this. Just because it's not the ideal scenario for getting strength gains doesn't mean that there isn't a reason for incorporating it into the routine. There's probably a ton of gym rats that can lift more than nfl players or basketball players but in terms of overall fitness and athleticism there isn't a comparison. I wish I had asked more questions and understood the routine better but I don't . All I know is the results I got from doing it for 3 months and that' it's a sports specific routine.

Thanks for your input but I'm just wondering are you referring to general HIIT where it usually lasts from 9-20 minutes or are you taking into account that I'm only doing 3 intervals of 30 second sprints ? Not including the rest times in between its only a minute and a half of sprints. When I finish I feel light on my legs and Definitly have a sweat and high heart rate but I don't feel fatigued. So what I was doing with this football dude was, the short hIIT session (after light warmup), followed by boxjumps (not timed just 3 sets of 10 and different variations) then right into squats/deadlifts... You still don't think that's a good idea ? Also what's your opinion on the boxjumps before squats/deadlift as well? There's no way in hell I would do a full session of HIIT before lifting.

Did you get a happy ending?? What was the injury and how did it occur?

Well I believe that "functional" strength has real world applications, like athletics and stuff, where as isolation exercises, like bicep curls for example might make you look better in the mirror but probably arent going to benefit you in sports. I guess all strength can be considered functional but personally I'd rather get my strength from mainly compound excercises vs a bunch of isolation exercises. I don't know wtf I'm talking about really though, all I know is I can get great workouts from just doing things like Squat, Deadlift, bench, inclinde DB press, pull ups, chin ups, pushups, inverted bodyweight rows, DB shoulder press, DB lunges, Dips ext...... I do like doing shoulder raises every once in a while though. This seems like a pretty good article though for comparing Compound vs Isolation exercises.. http://www.aworkoutroutine.com/compound-exercises-vs-isolation-exercises/ Basiclaly it says that if performance and looks are your goal than compound exercises are the way to go. But there are still occasional situations where doing isolation exercises are a good idea. When I go to the gym I can just tell by looking at what the guys I grew up with are doing.. I have old friends that I used to play sports with that are focusing on intense compound stuff and I also see people who were far less into sports and just genuinely less athletic who are the bodybuilder type focusing on isolation exercises more.

It is HIIT. The recovery time should probably be about 45-60 seconds considering I'm just getting back in to training but a 30 to 30 rest/work ratio is not out of the norm in hIIT, my heart rate is hitting about 85-90% of my max rate and I'm definitely putting max effort in. I should also mention I haven't been doing the typical 9-20 minute hIIT sessions I do three quick 30 second intervals after a 5 minute walk so it's pretty damn quick. Also, it's worth mentioning that it was a professional athlete who I was working out with that originally turned me on to this routine. I don't have off days to do hIIT on so I wanted to try and get as much done in the 3 days a week I hit the gym. I'm mostly going by past experience right now since I'm not in the shape I would like to be in but doing hIIT before lifts before didn't stop me from getting big gains. With the intensity I want to be lifting at, I don't see hIIT being a possibility for post workouts. Usually I need to get out of there and refuel/rest (puke), And no it's not the hIIT that burns me out it's the lifting. What do you mean "doing box jumps for time"? I'm not doing them stupidly I do them after the short session of hIIT and before squats/deadlift. Jumping and sprinting are my bread and butter, as a lifelong basketball player it would be stupid of me to be afraid of jumping. I'm not strong right now though, I just started working out again 3 weeks ago after a long lay off. I'm using my past experience using this routine as my example of being able to do the short hIIT session before lifting and not have it drastically affect my lifting. Now that I think about it though, I always did the hIIT before squats / deadlifts anyways so I wouldn't be able to compare what it's like without it. All I know was the hIIT became easier and easier, even after reaching full incline sprints and the lifting gains were continuous. The shape I got in was nothing short of amazing IMO, I know that it works I was looking for some reassurance now that the person I was training with is gone. Maybe I will experiment, I Definitely understand what you guys are saying about using up your fuel before you start lifting not being a good thing but do you think that if you are still able to complete the routine and get gains that it could be a good thing getting your body used to that kind if conditioning?
