I don't follow an ultra strict diet, I use counting calories as a tool to enable all the things you mentioned, and do them more accurately. I know which condiments are high in calories and which ones are better, I know which restaurants are lower in calories, I know how big to make my portions. Counting calories doesn't mean you have to eat broccoli and chicken breast exclusively, it just means you have better information to play with. And if you crack once and go to McDonalds once, it's easier to figure out how to get back on track rather than writing off the entire day. Tracking my progress closely helps keep me motivated because it establishes a direct link between my work and results.

3 weeks is a very long time to go without seeing results weight loss wise. Perhaps cuttind down to 1 cheat day per week would be a good idea. Counting calories is also essential (at least for me on a cut) it removes the guesswork and allows me to be somewhat more flexible as if I get invited out to dinner or something I know exactly how much to adjust for it later on.

Same with Seguin, claimed he was 3%. Probably wasn't lying, just got an inaccurate reading. 3% would be freakish.

My experience was that the bigger I got, the less attention I got overall, but the attention I did get was from hotter women. Women get intimidated too. But regardless, if your goal is to get as big as you want regardless of what anyone thinks, that's okay, you can do that. If you want to lift for the girls, that's OK too. Having said that I don't think the average natural lifter is in any danger of looking too freakishly big, especially if they stay lean.

I would guess that Costco knows full well that people will exploit their lenient return policy, and chooses to keep it that way anyways in order to keep other members happy and attract potential customers (which they believe will ultimately benefit them long term). You really think such a large, successful corporation wouldn't take this into account? They probably have mathematical models and everything. Not saying that guy should do it, just that there are thousands just like him/her and Costco knows it.

It's easier to just blame it on the corporations or leave it to the government rather than change our lifestyles in any meaningful way.

Anyone here have experience with intermittent fasting? I've heard a lot of good things and may give it a try. Looking for tips and testimonies.

Actually if you're paying for a personal trainer, group led classes, or any type of instructor I would put the responsibility on them to educate you on proper form. The whole reason people seek fitness training is because they know nothing and are seeking expert guidance. So now it's up to the company to make sure their trainers possess the proper knowledge to help customers. Also, for some people, part of the attraction of crossfit is the competitive, "group motivation" factor. This can be dangerous if the group pushes a person to do what they can't handle. Working out isn't a competition to see who can do the most pullups or the most snatches in a minute. I don't wanna make it sound like I'm hating on all crossfit boxes, I'm sure there are plenty that are very good. Crossfit boxes are independently owned, without proper quality control that opens up the potential for bad apples.

I wouldn't do it. It obviously depends on your box, but I get the impression that cross fit encourages simply going as hard and fast as you can for a certain period of time with less regard to proper form and safety. A lot of doctors have spoken out against it. It is good in the sense that unlike most fitnwss trends it actually encourages hard work rather than a quick fix. By joining cross fit, you will get in shape. However, there are other, better ways to get in shape that are less taxing on your body and finances. Granted, everything I know about cross fit is bases on news articles and stereotypes. Just proceed with caution.

Yeah it's not perfect, but it's better than being in the dark completely for me. I found it helped me to divide things up into portions as soon as I got back from the grocery store, that way you can use the exact weight on the packaging and divide it by how many portions you have. On a day to day basis this method isn't exact (on Monday and Tuesday you might log 100 g of chicken per day even though you ate 120 and 80) but over a week or so it averages out to the same which is the end goal anyway. I went through a lot of sandwich bags and my roommates thought I was weird but I'm swole so I don't care

You realize Osaka is in Japan, right? That's almost 5,000 kms away from Nepal. I know earthquakes can be felt far away, but that's like asking someone in Cuba if they felt the recent earthquake off our own BC coast. Japan has enough earthquakes of its own.

I use myfitnesspal to track all my calories when cutting, I find it gives me peace of mind and allows me to make adjustment on the fly. That way if I eat a McDouble for example, instead of writing off the whole day, I can just eat a little less for the rest of the day, and I can still end up withing my planned amount of calories. Obviously you don't wanna do this too often, as you just end up eating junk food for half the day and starving yourself the rest. But once in a while it's fine for a cheat meal/cheat day. Also it's more motivating this way, as just using guesswork to lose weight is like playing a sport without knowing the score to me.

That being said, though, is eating nutritious food not better for your general health? You can lose weight eating McDonalds every day, but you probably won't be getting the nutrients you need.

You will only gain weight if you eat enough food. Weight lifting does not make you gain weight by itself, you have to make sure you eat more calories than you take in. You might be able to get away with a weak diet at when you first start though, due to noob gains.

Gonna bump this one as I just moved back to Vancouver and I'm looking for a gym to join A$AP before I lose all my GAINZZZZZZZZ. I live in Coquitlam, work in Richmond, so I'm looking for something close to home or work (preferably home). I don't care about state-of-the art machines or saunas or steam rooms, but I absolutely demand a good selection free weights (with enough benches, squat racks, floor space for deadlifts etc.) along with a reasonable price.

Interstellar 8.5/10: A lot of my friends were saying it was one of the best movies they've ever seen. Overall it was excellent to watch, they clearly pulled a lot of elements of 2001: A Space Odyssey. Visually it was excellent and the plot was dramatic. The score was absolutely brilliant as well. However there were too many obvious flaws for me to consider it one of the greatest. I still gave it a good score though because it's definitely worth watching.

Iginla and Linden likely go way back so perhaps they are just hanging out. Or maybe Trevor wants the D

As far as management goes, the Canucks have made all the right moves. The hirings of Linden, and Benning, and Desjardins all appear to be smart decisions. They may not be the most experienced, but all the 3 of them are intelligent, hardworking men who have proven themselves at the lower levels. They are already well on their way to turning around the disaster that was last season, and if they can find the right players, it won't be long before this team is once again ready to win championships.

Definitely a troll thread, just looking at OP's more recent posts. Either that or it's a very clever parody of people like OP. Brb, taking my Kwantlen BA in English Literature to Goldman Sachs and demanding 200K a year, I'm sure they will give it to me just because I ask for it. I mean, I'm the only person in the world who desires to make lots of money and have a hip lifestyle.

Keep in mind this is for an Engineering degree, which is probably the most valuable Bachelor's you can get, and much more valuable than a marketing degree. Very few people make $100,000 straight out of college, unless they start a business, go to an Ivy League school, have great connections, etc. It's great that your ambitious and want to make lots of money, but part of that means being willing to work your way up. Before you go in demanding a high salary, you have to prove that you're exceptional. There are tons of communications majors out there from school like SFU, I'm sure you're good but if want to make salary demands you have to show that you are a genius. Otherwise, they're not gonna think you're "assertive" or "high value", they're just gonna pick someone else.

I can see where Torts is coming from, and he's entitled to his opinion. I would give Burrows another chance due to injuries, but he does have a bad contract, and I would expect Tortorella to have got a bad first impression considering this is the first he's seen Burrows play. However, some of the other stuff is pretty suspect. The Weise thing is pretty ridiculous and not talking to our farm team's coach is absolutely nuts. You'd think it would be important to stay in touch with the guy who's charge of developing your young players. I was on the fence about the firing before but these reports (if true) make me glad he's gone. Obviously there was a lot of behind-the-scenes stuff that must have factored into Trevor's decision.

Typical Bruins. Gotta love Lucic complaining about Weise making it public, as if he expects Weise to do him any favours after what he did. I can understand that trash talk happens in the heat of the moment during game action, but everyone knows that by the time the handshake line rolls around it's expected that you put the last series behind you and show some sportsmanship.

If it's only white people that are offended, why did his own players wear their jerseys inside out in protest? Why did the president of the US condemn the remarks? Why did the majority of NBA players (who are mostly black) support the ban? Who wants to work for a boss who thinks you are an inferior human being purely because of your skin? The "black jokes" on the internet are just that, jokes. When Donald Sterling discriminates against black and latino renters, and non-Korean renters, it's not a joke. IMO they should have banned him after that whole incident incident (which you conveniently seem to be ignoring) instead of waiting until now. They also should have made it clear that the ban was about his overall racist character, not just a few comments.

No one is saying he should go to jail or be charged with a crime. The NBA has its own separate rules and expectations, as does most of society. He broke them and now he's paying the price.

Just because AV is moving on to the second round as coach of a completely different team in a completely different division than us doesn't mean he wasn't part of the problem. There are millions of other factors, number one being the players.
