A ratio over two seems like a lot to me. I'd be waaaay off that benchmark as well. I know a lot of guys work towards a goal of 300/400/500. I used something around those ratios for my own training, so my deadlift should be around 1.6 times what I can bench. I can max bench 265lbs, but my deadlift is only at 405lbs, so I'm still pretty far off my own standards.

Kickoffs are extremely boring, but that would remove the possibility of an on-side kick occurring. Last minute on-side kicks are incredibly exciting,

Ohhh baby it's football Sunday!

Lol. Pats played really bad tonight, though I can't imagine it stays that way throughout the season. It was only this morning I was reading an article about how they were poised to finally have their 19-0 season though. Maybe next year.

12 team. 3 keepers. Standard scoring. Kept Gordon, Howard, Evans from last year. Only guy I'm not crazy about is Mixon. Picked him in round 1 (6th pick) as the RB group available got decimated pretty quickly and I didnt like any available WRs at that spot. Bit of a reach but I'm hoping that he'll take control of that backfield soon enough and emerge as an RB2 a few weeks in, and with any luck even better as the season moves on. Hopefully he'll be worth keeping for the next few years as well.

QB: Dak Prescott RB1: Melvin Gordon RB2: Jordan Howard WR1: Mike Evans WR2: Kelvin Benjamin TE: Jimmy Graham Flex: Ameer Abdullah K: Cairo Santos D/ST: Texans Bench: Joe Mixon Bench: Jacquizz Rodgers Bench: Alvin Kamara Bench: Jamison Crowder Bench: Kevin White Bench: Cooper Kupp

Events in Vancouver are truly not worth the money. I'd rather do 1 event in Seattle than go to 2 in Vancouver.

Just got back from a month vacation, ate a ton of rich food and hit the booze pretty hard nearly every day. Gained 7 pounds despite walking an average of 20km a day and doing a few day hikes. Going back to the gym again this morning, going to be interesting to see how pathetic I got

A really intense episode that really moved the story along. Only critique is that it played out exactly as you expected it to. Nothing that happened came as any surprise.

An eternity.

"You're done bud" "Just gonna seeeend it" "Oh man" "Fer the boys" Yeah, I'm a dbag.

Paradiso and Tommorrowland all coming up in the next month in a bit. My body is ready.

A 19 inch vertical jump is pretty weak. That's just over a foot and a half. I remember way back in high school fitness classes testing I was getting close to 2 feet, and I was not the best at it. I'm sure their agility times would absolutely wipe what I could do though, and I'd probably keel down right beside you during the vo2. I expected Hischier to not be so strong, but figured Patrick would have a bit of strength behind him.

Thought it would be interesting for some people to see how they stack up against the NHL's top prospects this year. Granted they are only 18, but I gotta say both of these kids seem to be relatively weak and un-athletic (I mean they obviously aren't un-athletic but) for top athletes given these results. PATRICK TEST RESULTS Standing long jump - 99.75" Bench press repetitions (70% body weight) - 12 Pro agility test - Left: 4.76 seconds; Right: 4.75 seconds Vertical jump - 19.49" Pullups - 11 HISCHIER TEST RESULTS Standing long jump - 105.75" Bench press repetitions (70% body weight) - 7 Pro agility test - Left: 4.75 seconds; Right: 4.53 seconds Vertical jump - 19.37" Pullups - 13

First one was arguably my favourite game ever (close tie with Skyrim). Haven't bought a non-sports game in years, but I can't imagine I don't pick this one up.

Mike Trout out 6-8 weeks. As someone who considers themselves more of a casual fan and stat tracker, that sucks to see. As dominant of player as there is in any major sport right now.

Yeah I generally follow a IIFYM diet for the flexibility and the fact that it's worked wonders for me so far, but I've always liked trying other methods of dieting just in case I found any that suited me better. IF is just one that I haven't been able to wrap my head around. Was I missing something? Or is everyone doing it suffering as much as I did? Huge hats off if they are.

@CaNuCkSLoUiE23 @RRypien37 When you guys are doing IF, what do you guys do to like, you know... survive? I've tried doing it a couple times but just feel so drained and useless. If I tried fasting on a day I had to work I truly don't think I would be able to do my job.

For me personally I generally try to keep my caloric intake around 30% protein, 30% fat, and 40% carbs. Has worked well for when I was trying to lose weight and for when I have been trying to add, so I just try to stick around those percentages all the time. Hitting 30% for protein isn't always easy, and on a week by week basis I'm usually hovering around 28%. Also while I don't know how your body metabolizes or how much you are exercising, I feel like you will need to consume more than 2500 or 3000 calories a day to bulk when you are already sitting at 235. I was consuming around 2700 calories a day while I was cutting down to 180 a few weeks ago, and I ultimately achieved that goal. The past 3 weeks I've been at around 3000 a day and am sitting steadily in the 177-180 range (daily variances). Of course, I'm far from an expert. That is just what I have found to have worked for me so far.

Get the Mrs. to join up and come with. Me and my girlfriend go to the gym at some point practically every day we get to spend together. Some days she will make me go when I don't want to, other days I make her go when she doesn't want to. It's a lot easier to get in the habit of going when you've got somebody who will get mad at you if you try and bail

I use an app called LoseIt which essentially does the same thing. Being able to track what you eat does wonders for your eating habits and your ability to adjust your weight. I've cut down nearly 40 pounds in the past 8 months from a high of 215 to 177 currently, and am still mainly focusing on strength training with limited cardio, and still drink and eat like crap on the weekends pretty frequently. Losing weight and cutting really isn't all that difficult so long as you put the time and effort into it. You don't need anabolics to get results in that regard.

Niners with a heck of a round one. Trading down, and still ending up with the 2nd best player in Allen and a top 10 talent in Foster is phenomenal. Hopefully we just keep on going the BPA route with the rest of the draft. A lot of holes to fill still.

Based off this post, your other post, and what others have told me, I definitely think I'll err on the side of caution and try a trial lol.

Yeah, I've heard similar things but only from a couple friends who I would consider casual gym goers, so their likes/dislikes are probably a bit different from mine. If anyone here goes there I'd love to hear what you think.
