Bodybuilding/Workout/Diet thread

So this thing that I've been doing has improved my strength a lot (bench weight increase of 20% or so, leg press weight increase of over 30%, bicep curl weight increase of 25%, etc) which is fine, but I'm not any bigger so I might start switching things up.

No one cares.

More interestingly, the dude that inspired all of this (Tim Ferriss of The 4-Hour Work Week fame) just released his second book called The 4 Hour Body which predictably chronicles his experiments in doing various experiments with his body.

No one cares.

I ran 5 miles in 35 minutes or so last night, wanna fight?

I haven't worked out since July. Right now I have the flu.

No one cares.

I ran two miles last week and it was the first time I've run in about 2 and a half months. Took me slightly under 14 minutes. So yes, I would like to fight.

I hope none of you sluts are as disgusting as this farg I encountered the other day...

The little batch of trailer trash was running on the treadmill without a shirt on and sweating like a pig. I mean, I sweat like one too. But the difference is when I am finished with a machine I use the disinfectant wipes and also towel myself off throughout the exercise.

This fargin guy gets done, steps off the treadmill and leaves it drenched in his sweat. Goes and picks up a face towel, wipes himself down and drops the towel on the floor by the door on the way out.

Actually I did. And he had earphones in so did not acknowledge. But today I caught him without and told him to quit being a disgusting pig because other people would like to use the shtein too.

His response...chill out man, I'm sorry.

[PhillyPhreak54]

I thought about it and wished he would fall off the treadmill

I just finished reading The 4 Hour Work Week and, in addition to being fairly inspirational for those of us who are 9-5 cube-jockeys, the author talks several times about his experiments in muscle gain and weight loss (the dude has tons of time on his hands and frequently does these types of 'what can I make my body do' types of experiments).

The site that he maintains in conjunction with the book has these three posts about weight loss and muscle gain. Fascinating stuff:

Science.

Losing fat.

Gaining muscle.

Anyone looking for a great farging diet try the losing fat one. The foods you can eat are great, I have a ton of energy, and you get one cheat day where you can eat anything you want. Today I had a double cheeseburger and fries from 5 guys and a large ice cream (Peanut Butter Cup) from Cold Stone. Lost 6 lbs. this week.

i'm down about 25 pounds since my gall bladder melted in august.  it's hard as hell to eat right all the time and i really need to get some more cardio in, but i feel 100 times better than i did when i was fat(ter).
