ChiefsPlanet - Poop The "I just got back from the gym" and this is what I have eaten thread.

Exactly, which is pretty much Bittman's whole philosophy on everything.

The taking any new nutritional study/information to the extreme is the cause of the swings of the pendulum.

That's still twice the recommended maximum number. Max recommended is usually 1-2 cans.

Alternatively, you can eat as much canned salmon as you like, as it's mercury-free.

Is that 1-2 cans per week? I've been eating 3-4 per week. Maybe I should cool it...

Also, I read that albacore tuna has more mercury than chunk light.

I could "press" 185 for working weight, but I never actually touched the bar to my chest, instead stopping 4 inches or so above my chest before pushing the bar back up. This is probably because I have really long arms, so going down all the way to my chest never felt natural.

Anyway, I restarted bench press a couple of weeks back, and I decided I was going to relearn the exercise with actual decent form. As such, I've been pressing really low weights and feeling like a weakling as I retrained my body to actually press correctly.

Today I got back to working weight of 185. This time, though, I'm actually doing a correct bench press instead of the bastardized version I did before.

Sweet.

Nice! :clap:

Again, devil in the dosage. Some is fine, too much is bad.

Same with LSD. Some is fine, actually fantastic. Too much though, and you are jumping through a two story plate glass window with nothing on but a Superman cape.....err.... so I've been told.

Albacore has like 3:1 ratio more, iirc.

Tried new bench press form today. Seemed to put more pressure on my shoulder and made it hurt worse... and I went way lighter than normal.

I renewed my license at the end of April and fudged on my weight by almost 20lbs. I'm under my licensed weight now. :) Low side of the 270's, and if I work hard I'll get into the 260's next week. It's so ****ing awesome wearing 2XL shirts that are getting too big for me. It's crazy.

Anything wrong with boiling my water before adding the protein powder? I want a little faux hot chocolate. :)

Good workout today, 23 hrs into my fast. Can't wait for 9:00 though, I'm going to eat a nice small bowl of spaghetti.

OT: There was a guy at the gym today working out in cargo shorts, button up shirt, and loafers. Instead of water, he was drinking pepsi. Really, WTF. How do you drink pepsi at the gym?
