Sometimes your gut is resting on the towel rod.

So I bought this book on the Kindle Store called Starting Strength because it had glowing reviews and is apparently a must-read for strength training, and it was only $10 (instead of $30) if I bought it as an e-book. It's quite good - I'm already a couple dozen pages into the first chapter, which covers the squat (that should tell you how in-depth the book is) when I turn the page and see this:



Best $10 I ever spent.

That is hilarious.

In other news: Lunges are simply an absurdly good workout. They leave me with that "oh god, I exercised and am going to ache for a few days, but in a good way" feeling.

So does sex though.

But then again, having a little less helps you think more like a woman. <,.,<

So, you're losing weight because you've never had girlfriend, then?

Ummm... Where did I say that?

I meant saying that having a little less testosterone helps you think like a woman some. Men.who weigh more, do produce some estrogen as well. Idk the if the source I got that from is credible though.

There's a correlation between aggressive behavior and testosterone, but it isn't causal. It can cause acne, boners, and perhaps enhance anabolism, but it wont change your personality.

Last time I checked, it was an inverse correlation.

If this is supposed to be a good thing, you have clearly never had a girlfriend.

How would that say I never had a girlfriend? Anyways, it would help you be more emotional, and show your emotions more as well.

A lot of guys have their emotions, they just don't show them. If they see something cute, they don't go Awwwww, they just look at it, and shrug for fear of being labeled as gay or something.

But... For what I came to post... I couldn't as I didn't have a change to, and the website kept going down when I tried.

Day 4: Woke up, refreshed, no pain, no nothing. Was a nice day out, cool, sunny, yet breezy day which was a nice change. Went outside to jump rope, went for a while longer this time around. Went 9 minutes straight until My legs got too tired to do any more. Shins, bottom of my feet, calfs, were sore after I had stopped, almost fell a few times as well. I sweated almost nothing... I only really sweat when its hot, when I run or something... I don't. -Shrugs.- Weighed my self today, was 287. Gained some weight, from when I last did. Probably because of all the water loss the day I started.

I have noticed that my endurance has gone up, as well as hand eye co-ordination, and it takes me more to get tired, not much more though, but still an increase. Other than that, nothing else physical.

Emotional though... I have noticed that I am in a better mood from when before I started. I am not as mentally tired either.

I will still continue. Will the soreness of my legs go away after a bit though? I keep jumping, and After I got 12+ in a row, my legs just hurt so badly that I have to stop, take a second to rest, then continue, and I am really short of breath as well. Even though the pain is there, it actually makes me feel better that I can go 12 jumps before I gotta stop. So, its not just physical, but emotional.

That's a cultural thing more than anything else.

Mmmm... I would agree with that actually. Now that I think about it more, I agree. Its mostly here in the US that people are labeled as that. If any guy shows a feminine side, they are labeled as gay...

Just like if they stare at some one's breast they are called pervs, and if they don't... They are called gay. Wtf? -.-;

I'm not sure if it's my height "or lack of it 5ft 6in" but I never seem to be able to talk to a woman while looking at her face. instead I'm sort of top boob/neck area. At times I thought they must think I@m a perv. I just dont find it comfy to talk to somebody looking up like I'm trapped down a well.

Move to Asia?

Actually this is the solution to around 92.6% of the issues I see every day.
