[penguinz]

Welcome to 2014! Now get your ass in top physical condition!

No one else started it so here it is!

**From the 2013 Thread**

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

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:

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.

How far do you plan to run during an average cardio workout?

The **** I don't, anyone gets big by consistently lifting heavy, matter of fact YOU have no idea what you're talking about.

I don't need any advice from any of you guys quite frankly, what I do has worked over and Over and OVER... did it in the Army, did it as a civilian, bout to do it now.

I've read more fitness and muscle mags than you and Clay combined and have put it into practice with quick results... so shove it, I don't need lectured on this.

I've never added it up quite frankly, but if I had to guess its about a mile of jogging to loosen up and from there who knows... it all depends on the size of the hill or set of stairs and how many times I go up them.

It depends on how many sprints I do before I'm gassed out for the day, lets just say I was heavy into working out before you and as for Silock he can kiss my ass.

No, they don't. A simple Google search can tell you this much. If muscle building were THAT ****ing easy, everyone would be walking around looking like the mother****ing Hulk. It's difficult for guys, let alone women, who don't have the testosterone levels we do.

Also, nice "I'm rubber, you're glue" comeback.

I don't need any advice from any of you guys quite frankly, what I do has worked over and Over and OVER... did it in the Army, did it as a civilian, bout to do it now.

I'm not giving you advice. I'm just telling other people to ignore yours. Big difference.

I've read more fitness and muscle mags than you and Clay combined

Well, **** ME, then. We're dealing with a goddamned ****ing PROFESSOR right here, bros. Might as well give up.

so shove it, I don't need lectured on this.

I'm not lecturing you. I'm just telling you that you don't know what the **** you're talking about.

Let's just say you give bad advise and are somewhat knowledgable from "all the fitness magazines you've read", but you have more to learn. Starting with smoking is bad for you and really doesn't work well with fitness and weight lifting!

Man, you've got this thing with steroids.

You know, some people just get big(ger) because of their physiology, not because they are doing PEDs.

I've known a couple of girls that could get absolutely ripped by working out hard without drugs. My brother got singled out for testing all the time when he was competing in power lifting because people thought that he looked like he was on roids and he never touched them.

I was dating a girl for a little bit that had real definition and muscles. She got "roid" comments all the time.

Sure, the Mr. & Mrs. Olympia level people are most likely using them as well as having superb genetics for building such muscle mass, but not every relatively big and somewhat ripped person is juicing.

You're coming off like a real winner here. Keep it up. You're really showing everyone just how awesome you are.

Truth be told, you're right about women lifting heavy apparently, I never spent any time looking into womens physiology... but it does hold true for men.

Doesn't ultimately matter to me, I damn well know what works for me and didn't just start working out last week... come out slinging turds and I'll throw them back.

Jeeez, just trying to talk fitness and this is what it comes to.

I mentioned steroids for women because testosterone builds muscles. Some girls have more than others, and will build bigger muscles. Welcome to genetics.

But by and large, the vast majority of women simply cannot build muscles like you see on a man without medicinal help. That's just how it works.

Yes, women can "bulk" like men, by eating lots of protein and lots of calories, but it's still physiologically different. Too many women are afraid that lifting heavy will make them look like She-Hulk, when the opposite is true. Higher weight with less reps will give them the desired outcome. Just because they lift like a man won't make them look like a man.

Yes, I know.

I didn't "sling turds." You were spreading misinformation and I corrected you.

Jeeez, just trying to talk fitness and this is what it comes to.

Dude, YOU started this whole thing. All the name calling and cussing started with YOU.
