Stress won't help. Take a deep breath. Alea iacta est; if you weren't prepared, you won't be prepared, you so might as well make the best out of the situation. I'd wish you good luck, but you don't need it.

Guys, I went and played basketball for like 2 and a half hours today. It was epic and fun, but I got huge blisters from it. Like I am limping and hobbling when I walk! XD

Any recommendations on how I can get them to heal ASAP?

Anyways, I was in man-mode today so after basketball I went and did my lower body workout at the gym. It was tough, and my lower back feels so stiff/sore, but I feel like it was worth it!


Maybe put some lotion on it and take a bath to soak it. Don't really know much to help you with that, but I guess eventually your skin will just heal over it.

Hi, I'm back.

Not dead, just really lazy, full of injuries and non-sense.

Watching the Starting Strength videos again, and watching some Pyrros Dimas awesomeness.

I shall start again, and I shall be slow and steady. But will ultimately get there.

Lol, there's just pictures of this dude all over the site. Weird.

A man's balls fill his underwear. They slap against his legs in exercise. Steroids make a man's testicles shrink in size. They become smaller and his underwear becomes looser. But usually the shrinkage is not profound.

ahahahaha

You don't get enough love for your quality posts. Sometimes I listen to "gym" when I need motivation.

I may do that one or the one in Michigan. I'm hesitating on dropping the money for it but I really want to a do a double mudder and I have a feeling things will get more complicated in my life by next year haha.

Regardless, need to start running again lol.

I posted this in a blog but someone said it would be relevant here.

So, I was in a thread the other day that reminded me of the topic of weight loss. Early in my life I was very overweight for my age. I was very sickly as a child and had to take steroids for medical purposes; even then I could hardly leave my room. A lot of people associate steroids with athletes nowadays and believe that steroids help you put on muscle. While taking steroids can help people put on extra muscle mass when they work out a lot, a more sedentary person (i.e a sick person) who takes them will put often put on weight.

So all through my childhood I had a lot of extra weight packed on. As my body grew I never kept putting weight on, but my shape never changed very much. Around high school I was very self conscious about my image because of the weight, and I started trying every diet/exercise thing I could find. Nothing ever worked. At the end of the day I always ended up cheating or giving up; it was just too hard to maintain.

A year or two later I heard this in a song on an album my friend asked me to check out...

"Heart throb never, Black and Ugly as ever; However i stay Gucci down to the socks, rings and watch filled with rocks and my jam knock in your Mitsubishi. Girls pee-pee when they see me, Navajo's creep me in they Tee-pee... I got that good love girl you didn't know?"
- Christopher Wallace; RIP

I always loved literature class and I analyzed every song and book I could get my hands on to see what little things I could get out of them. This line just completely changed how I thought about my weight. I realized that the reason I was always trying to lose weight because of OTHER people. I wanted girls to find me attractive, I wanted to look "attractive." At the end of the day, I wanted to impress other people; it was never about me, it was about them.

This sample from "One More Chance" made me realize that my weight, the thing I obsessed about constantly, wasn't really that important. I was me, and I liked who I was; I was smart, interesting and funny. Christopher Wallace was rumored to have had a weight of 380 lbs, had a lazy eye and isn't really what most people would consider attractive, yet he was still a sex symbol and someone a lot of people looked up to. He knew who he was as a person and was comfortable with it; he oozed self-confidence and was a charismatic person.

From that point on, I was me; no reservations. I didn't buy baggy clothes to try to hide my weight, I didn't bathe with my shirt on, or any of the things I used to do because of my weight. I held my head high wherever I went. When talking to women I no longer felt like I was going to make myself look stupid or worried about weather she thought I was gross because of my weight, I just came as a person and became very successful in the romance department. I was no longer the shy, self-conscious kid who was a little overweight. I was Brandon.

Some time later I picked up rock climbing and was frustrated by how much slower I was because of my weight, so I decided I wanted to be a bit slimmer. I started a very modest diet and exercise program and the weight just fell off. The thing that was keeping me back from losing weight was because I was doing it for other people at the end of the day, not myself. Once I was comfortable with myself and didn't need to lose weight, it became so much easier.

hopefully this could help some people with their weight loss goals. Cheers

I think most people start working out to impress the opposite sex, but that rarely lasts. The ones who stick with it I think are the ones who enjoy it for it's own sake, like you.
Excuse me hun, but what is your name? Vivian? I woke up next to you naked and, uh, did we, um?

I second this, and thats also why I feel that strength training is way better than training for a six-pack. You can actually feel the difference in your everyday life. That goes to any gym program, really, but I doubt the difference is as big. Personally I get a ton of joy because with just a little bit of training, I KNOW that I'm able to do many things that I could only dream about before. And thats just the beginning of it. I hope to keep training for the rest of my life, now that I've actually experienced some results and I know how awesome it is.
When your whole life seems to be shitting on you, nothing is more awesome than a heavy ass barbell on your back when you squat. Or when you deadlift. It feels like all my worries just melt away, and I can forget about the negative things for the day.

For me the gym is a playground. A big fucking serious ass playground. Just so fun. And I really enjoy doing all sorts of exercises...I like to imagine I am filming my own DVD like Branch Warren or Kai Greene haha. Hey...whatever works

Also, yes, in a world where stability and reliability are at a premium...the fact that the iron will never change is always comforting.
