![]() Some of you are amazingly fit, and congratulations on your efforts and enjoy your bodily rewards.
I have lost quite a bit of fat weight, then put put a bit back on (but not nearly as much as I lost). I need to get back at it and lose more. And I need to get into weightlifting. I'm sure I could get pretty strong if I just tried at it but I hardly do and I need to stop being lazy about it. Also I hear they're pretty much conflicting goals -- fat weight loss and muscle building since you need the calories for muscle building (well, at least lots of protein and stuff with protein has calories) vs trying to cut calories and more exercise for fat loss. What I've done is severely reduced high fructose corn syrup intake (I don't buy foods with it, but if I'm out somewhere or at somebody's house, who knows -- food probably has it), eliminated sodas entirely, and go for long walks a lot. Unfortunately I haven't been able to do the long walk thing for a while due to roadwork/construction in the area and closed-off sidewalks and I really hope they finish that soon because I've been putting on weight in the meantime. |

![]() Wasn't feeling well today, but decided to workout anyways. Turned out to be a bad idea as I threw up. Still finished my workout though.

Creatine shouldn't have side effects typically. Besides water retention. Possible though. Keep running it, if it continues, try coming off.

![]() Like SCWolf said, keep at it, if you keep getting sick, then you know...
But if you feel bad, dont go into the gym. Don't try to "sweat the sickness out". You'll set yourself back. It took me a long time to figure that out... |

It's also amusing that you assume I didn't read the paper because I (ostensibly) disagree with what you believe. The entire body of physiological research on fat storage and usage agrees with my statement. Negative energy balance leads to fat loss. It is an inexorable consequence. Research has shown that fat people burn more calories than their thinner counterparts. The larger you get, the more energy you need to consume to maintain your size. Getting fat is therefore no accident. I don't really get the issue here; I'm not disagreeing with the existence of genetic factors or obesogens. A million and one factors *contribute* to the obesity epidemic. Obviously they exist, but they are not in any way causal factors. The causal factor is ultimately self infliction. I have shoulder tendinitis. This makes it incredibly hard for me to train shoulders, so I'm at a disadvantage in that department. So, I could chalk up my weak shoulders to an inherent disadvantage I have or, you know, actually put in some work to fix the problem. People that claim to be fat because of factors that are out of their control are uneducated on the matter and lying to themselves. There are always choices. It just happens to be the case that sometimes they're not the easy ones in life. Making smart dietary choices can be very difficult, especially when you're surrounded by other unhealthy people. It often takes systematic changes to everything you do in life, and let's face it, many people aren't willing to do it.

![]() I just started that insanity workout today. Oh boy, did that suck. D: Hopefully I keep at it. (For reference I used to go to the gym about 3 days a week(Nov-Mar) but 70hr work weeks took over, leaving no time for the gym. 5'10'' 165.5. I didn't read through 10 pages, but I assume everyone gave there quick description of their build.

![]() Thanks. Eating clean maybe a problem. I eat very abnormally. On an average day, I eat 4 pb&j/deli meat sandwiches for lunch, and then for dinner I either don't eat, or eat a crap ton. For example, I can usually eat a large combo from McDonald's AND a happy meal. It doesn't matter how much I eat, half an hour later, I'm hungry again anyways. =/
Edit: That's sick Senip. I show no veins whatsoever. D:

Wow, that's a good find. Definitely a good read for anybody getting into lifting (or a good refresher for those of us that feel like we know everything already--Seeing a couple of those again were definitely good for me). I'm bookmarking this one...may steal it and make a flyer of it for my gym lol. If you're having a hard time with creatine, ingest a few more carbohydrates with your doses. Creatine is best absorbed when insulin levels are elevated, and I believe that some people even have a tendency to become slightly hypoglycemic if they just take it straight. I've forgotten the exact physiology of this...just take it as accurate broscience from personal experience at the mo' though lol. Mixing it with fruit juice or eating something like a half a bagel or a slice or two of bread before/immediately after may relieve any nausea. That's how it works for me, at least.
