*.* 2013 General Fitness Thread *.*

Welcome to 2013! Now get your ass in top physical condition!

**From the 2012 Thread**

If you want to get back into lifting, or need a new lifting routine, START HERE:

http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wi...inner_Programs

If you have questions about the SS programs, look here:

http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ

Keep in mind that you're a novice lifter for a longer period of time than you think you are. Novice lifting can last anywhere from a few months to a year or two, depending on how hard you hit the weights and where you started.

Once you've reached the point where you don't make regular progress on the SS program, you are ready to move on to the intermediate stage, which can last you for a good number of years. Find it HERE:

http://madcow.hostzi.com/5x5_Program/Linear_5x5.htm

If you're a very advanced lifter (many, many years of CONSISTENT weight training), then there are lot of programs out there, and which one you pick is simply a matter of preference. If you're really that advanced, you should know what works for you and what doesn't by this point.

Not 100% true. Your body can only handle so much glucose at a time. You could be in a caloric deficit and consume large amounts of glucose all at once and some of that is going to go to fat cells for storage because your body physically can not process that much at one once.

How much is too much at once? I imagine you would need to drink a ton of Gatorade quickly to cause that problem.

When you are talking about sucrose (table sugar) or even worse ( HFCS) it can cause your blood glucose levels to jump very quickly.

This is why pop is so bad for you.

The best time to consume these types of sugars is going to be right after working out when your muscle are glucose depleted.

yeah... no. It has nothing to do with the body having a limit on processing or handling glucose, it has to do with storage space. For someone to drink a gatorade and have it all stored as fat right away, his muscle glycogen as well as liver storage would all have to be topped off. There is no limit on how much can be processed other than how much you can eat in a sitting. Myself as well as a bunch of guys in this thread have went carb depleted during the week and easily pounded a box of kids cereal as well as other 'junk' with no issues.

The problem with soda and crap sugar drinks in general is that people drink them all day long, leading to chronically high insulin levels when they arent even active to begin with.

Not trying to rant or argue with you bud, its just that there is a lot more involved than just 'too much sugar turns instantly to fat'.

Havent kept up with this thread but i lift 4 times a week and have over the past 4 years. Took two weeks off in the middle of june to acclimate to the heat( i work in the heat 58 hours a week). Ive now been back for two weeks going heavy to get my bench back to 350, and i keep getting nasty bruises and cramps in the outside of my right hand. Anyone run into this? Ive used gloves before but never cared for them much. Thoughts?

I love my Mio drink mixes.

Are you holding the bar correctly (tight grip, rigid wrist)?

You are partially correct in this. There is more to body chemistry than calories in vs calories out.

You, me, silock, and some others in this thread can do this because we are already in physical shape.

Day 27:

As expected, the change to all high GI carbs with a minimum of sugars kept me from bloating up, even though carb intake was very high. I used all that extra energy to really hit it hard in the gym. Two and a half hour workout, but it was GREAT.





Workout:

Bulgarian Split Squats (R&L) - 100% 5x2, 95% 6x3, Drop set 65% 12x1
Decline Bench - 100% 5x4, 6x1, drop set 70% 12x1
Deadlift - 100% 5x1, 90% 6x2, drop set 65% 15x1
Military Press - 100% 4x1, 95% 5x1, 90% 6x1, drop set 60% 15x1
Barbell Row - 100% 6x3, drop set 70% 15x1
Incline Bench - 80% 6x2, 75% 6x1, 60% 15x1
DB Curl - 100% 8x1, 95% 8x1, 90% 8x1, drop set 70% 15x1
Cable Crunch - 15x3
Tricep Rope Pushdown - 12x3

Felt GREAT. Weights were up where they should be all across the board.

Nutrition:

Weight Watchers ice cream bars
Myofusion shake
2 Sweet potatos
1/2 Homemade thin crust pizza with grilled chicken and fat free cheese
Ground turkey with scallions, onions and celery

Totals: 2,081 cals, 263g carbs, 37g fat, 201g protein

You do not look like you are 182. That would put you almost 20lb more than me.

Yea, doesn't look like it to me either but he is almost 6 feet.

I weigh almost the same as him now but with more bodyfat and much shorter!

Pretty crazy how different body structures hold muscle mass.
