My life tip:
Don't listen to people who call language primitive relative to body language. Probably they are better friends with gorillas than humans.
Seriously though, most of his life tips were OK. Some of them I think are like those folksy wisdom things that sound nice but are ridiculous. If a girl looks at you then runs her hand through her hair she's interested? What!?
My life tip for finding women: Be active. Enjoy your life and participate in a wide variety of activities. You're far more likely to find a woman who you share things in common with and can develop a real relationship with than by approaching random girls who smile at you.
|
@pja
you will be amazed how much we act like gorillas sometimes. especially men who are getting ungry / upset by territorial issues.
about getting girls i absolutly agree with you.
and about the wisdom newager stuff. i only say things i experienced by myself, which do work. our world is full of misinformation. its not easy to collect true information within al this gargabe of info-overflow. hell, we even need stuff like wikileaks to have a small window on unfiltered knowlegde about whats truly happening on our politics. whom can you trust? who is right? i stick with my personal experience which cannot lie.

First, I stopped drinking soda so much (two liters or more daily down to rarely more than a 20 oz. bottle) and started drinking a lot more water. Second, I stopped eating such large portions (instead of having a full plate and going for seconds, not even filling the plate in the first place). I've been busy and had a hectic schedule, so finding time for cardio wasn't easy and I decided I wanted to do it on a routine, and not just whenever, so I just gave up.  I'm going to go to a gym soon and do cardio there, as my joints and shins hurt if I run/jog on streets and such. Any suggestions on what I should or shouldn't do for cardio at a gym? I'm told running is the best cardio there is, so I'm not sure if I should just use a treadmill or if other cardio machines are worthwhile, too. A lot of what blitzkrieger is saying is correct, except for the stretching part which is complete bogus (stretching is very good for you, regular stretching like yoga is also very good for you), sorry to not sight any sources but google it and form your own opinion. Step one to weight loss is making sure you have some endurance, if you can't run for a mile then you really need to work on that, strictly doing HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) can help with that. If you can already run then just jump to step two. Step two is strength training, your body naturally burns fat at rest, but muscle burns fat 4-5 times faster than fat does (yes indirectly fat burns fat). So you want to gain muscle find a good weight regiment that works good for you, you just want to make sure you are gaining muscle; the way you know you are gaining muscle is if your muscles that you focused on are sore after your workout (and at the start maybe a day or two after your workout). Do not combine HIIT with weight training, like blitzkrieger said when you do HIIT training you are actually breaking down the fibers that your body uses for muscle building (or something like that, not sure on the exact details but I do know it is counter-productive to combine the two). If you still feel the need to get your endurance up while weight training then do an HITT session no more than once a week. While you are weight training you can also do cardio work (but make sure your heart rate does not go into the endurance ranges that HIIT puts them in). cardio work just burns fat if you have your heart rate in the right range (The range is different for everyone, I'm 21 and my fat burning range is 150-170, any higher is training endurance). The best cardio work is something that you enjoy doing that you can do for about an hour without having to take breaks, if you like running with music do that, if you enjoy basketball do that, or participate in one of the many classes your gym likely has for free. Once you get some muscle on you you can go back to HIIT and cardio work combined, this will get your endurance up and help you lose a lot of weight, you will also burn off some of that muscle but that's fine, just make sure to go back to weights every now and again. I'm no expert on this but I am very confident in what I've laid out, I got all my info from talking to different instructors and doctors at my gym, and google.
This is a good base, but I would not suggest much weight lifting. If your goal is to lose a significant amount of weight, then weight lifting is really not going to help. It is very difficult to lose weight and gain muscle at the same time. To lose weight your body needs to take-in fewer calories than it uses. To gain any significant amount of muscle, you need to take in more calories than you use, which would be counterproductive. Sure you would gain muscle, but you wouldn't lose much fat.
If your simply trying to lose weight, then a combination of cardio and HIIT with some weight training (mainly to attempt to maintain strength) is your best bet. Remember with weight training use high reps (above 10 or 12) and compound lifts. Isolation lifts are literally pointless for losing weight (ex. bicep curls)

This works because Mcdonalds doesn't have order no. or paperwork for a cup of water, so you'll almost always get the person behind you's food.
Note: works only if there is a separate pay and pickup window. Also I tried this once in a town that didn't let you order a cup of water at the drive-through and only let you order bottled water (thus it didn't work.)
I work at a McDonalds, and yes, they don't have a cup of water thing, but the Order taker usually yells out to the person at the front "A cold water for the (colour) car" so it would probably not work most of the time, also is a huge douchebag move too.

The thing is that eating more often less food and you wont be hungry if you eat only 3 meal at the end of the day the last one will be way bigger because you are hungry like hell and u wont make much exercise after it so u get more weight

Not trying to sound like a douche or whatever, but urges to over-indulge in food hardly ever happen to me and I would say they are pretty easy to control as well. (I went without eating for 2 days and had a normal sized meal at the end to prove this point to an untrusting girl) All you do is think about something else and drink water whenever you start feeling hungry.
Also, if you're going to exercise, do it before a meal, or a few hours after (it might just be superstition but I do it anyway)

Putting a fragile sticker somewhere on everything you ship at the airport or whatever will make sure the ground crew treats it nice and good.
If you buy one drink at McDonalds, then you can get a "Free Refill" every time you see the golden arches.
Try to buy things that pay for themselves over time, and make sure you don't indulge in stuff that doesn't too too often.

TL, I brought up the brushing your teeth in the morning topic to my dentist during my check up.
You brush after you eat, I almost felt stupid for asking. Don't know where you guys got that information from.

Even if you were meant to brush before you eat, I don't think my dental hygiene is worth my breakfast tasting shitty.

1. using middle mouse button on a link opens it in a new tab.
2. if using chrome and have two monitors, here is how you set it up so you can full screen one monitor while doing whatever on the other (those with 2 monitors know what i'm talking about). I know the methods for firefox and IE have already been posted but the way to do it for chrome is a little "different" for lack of better words .

"The world is meaningless, there is no God or gods, there are no morals, the universe is not moving inexorably towards any higher purpose. All meaning is man-made, so make your own, and make it well. Do not treat life as a way to pass the time until you die.
Do not try to "find yourself", you must make yourself. Choose what you want to find meaningful and live, create, love, hate, cry, destroy, fight and die for it. Do not let your life and your values and your actions slip easily into any mold, other that that which you create for yourself, and say with conviction, "This is who I make myself".
Do not give in to hope. Remember that nothing you do has any significance beyond that with which imbue it. Whatever you do, do it for its own sake. When the universe looks on with indifference, laugh, and shout back, "Fuck You!". Rembember that to fight meaninglessness is futile, but fight anyway, in spite of and because of its futility.
The world may be empty of meaning, but it is a blank canvas on which to paint meanings of your own. Live deliberately. You are free." -Existentialist @writesomething.com

Haha, no. Seriously. No. Chances are they'll treat it even worse just to fuck up some guy because they hate their work.
I know folks who worked at the luggage department at an airport and trust me, a "fragile" sticker is just asking for trouble.

When McDonalds or any fast food demands you pay for sauce offer to pay with a debit/credit card. Most the time they will just give it to you. If they do try to accept the card I usually let them as they will lose money processing the card. (I f'ing hate when they try to charge for sauce)

When you are taking public transit, try to get the seats that are facing the sides, why?
Because you can train your core while you are getting to your destination. Sit up straight and away from the back of the seat, and the stops and accelerations will be the resistance for your abs.
Don't know if its been posted, but yeah, I read and do this at the same time. Its actually working.
(Might as well turn that boring commute into a couple minutes of ab training right?)

1. When you cry but you don't want people to know, tell them you have allergies.
2. If you forget the name of your friend, act normal, call him by ``yo`` or ``buddy``. Ask his name if he forgets your`s too.
3. To save time: when you go to sleep, skip the ``wear the pajama`` part and go straight for: what am I wearing tomorrow?
4. Set one alarm 30 min. before you have to wake up and another one 5 min. before.
5. I love you in french: Je t'aime. In mandarin (chinese):Wo ai ni. In korean: Sarang hae.
6. Learn your geography, there`s a country above US: Canada. (Can`t find the survey where x% of Americans didn`t know that)
