As an ex high school wrestler I say a pox on all your houses. Oh god, I had friends that wrestled in high school, I mostly stayed away from them on weigh in days. You mean Thursday-Saturday? Lol. Sometimes we even had Wednesday meets <shudder> I didn't know their schedule, but I could always tell by how pissed off they looked at lunch. Or how they weren't eating anything.
Ahh, but the good ones would have stopped eating on Monday anyways

I have a female friend who's a weight lifting champion (on some collegiate level). The days where she was eating lemon water were painful to watch.
Then again she can lift 400 lbs. so I don't argue with her methods.

Hmm, maybe I could put on some muscle but that'd be a lot of work. My thinking is, I am just storing up my power for the upcoming decades. All these people get old and frail and weak because they use up their life power on physical activities when they were young, NOT ME THOUGH. I plan ahead and distribute my life power evenly for the whole duration of my life.

Following up this logic, scip will be bronze in the future while we will all be challenger woo!

Yeah... its not the tastiest thing, but still much better than real shots. Leaves a pretty nasty feeling at the back of the throat but if you immediately chase with milk its not too bad, and you do get used to it. Still, a shot can be about 400-700 calories (depending on the source), which is pretty nice. I think its a viable alternative to taking protein powder-- obviously doesn't have the nutrients, but you should really be getting nutrients from other sources rather than in such a processed form IMO. Or, you can do what I did sometimes and add a shot to your protein shake.
I just use whatever extra-virgin olive oil I have for cooking-- I'm home from college right now, so I have to check what it actually is. Make sure its decent quality, or the point of olive oil as a 'healthy' calorie source is defeated.

EDIT: Scip it doesn't work that way. Allow me to use a pokemon example.
So you get your starter (I'll say Chikorita because Gen2 is my fave), and you head out onto route 29. You encounter a wild pokemanns, maybe a Rattata. You order Chikorita to tackle it a couple times to weaken it, then you chuck your pokeball. Congrats you catch your first pokemon and are on the way to being a pokemon master.
So you go through the gyms and stuff and eventually you reach the Elite Four. For this special occasion, you use your Rattata which has been curled up in the ball the entire length of your quest to become a pokemon master. Lance pulls out his first Dragonite. You pull out your Rattata. You get one shot by dragon rage because you're level 2.

Actually, there's the semi-whacky but not entirely baseless theory that you have a decently specific number of heartbeats, meaning that if you exercise consistently you'll live longer, and if you don't at all, you'll live longer.
Edit: Stress and environmental factors are bigger though, and have scientific basis...

First day of classes. Hit some kind of giant ass vulture on my way to class. Dented the hood of my car + it left marks where it slid over the hood. And somehow my teacher made like 5 typos on our syllabus so the class's grading is a lot harder than it was made out to be. G_G

I'm jelly of you high metabolism folks. All skinny and shit, without having to do anything.

I spent 3 months in the Arizona wilderness backcountry camping as part of a bird study where for 7 hours every morning I walked around trying to find nests and surveying vegetation.
After all was said and done I was 150 pounds. Question is, did I gain weight or lose it?
+ Show Spoiler +I gained it, was floating around 138 pounds beforehand, I'm 5'10"
Also I'm playing pokemon white 2 and it's pretty fun but the battle train bosses made me pull my hair out and I would much rather continue stomping gym leaders than go back to that frustration. It didn't help that I had to play 20 more inane battles beforehand and had to completely redo one of them because I needed to put items on my pokemon.

You'd think you would lose that fat pretty quickly running from crazy environmentalists though

Fun fact: about 90% of the nests found get predated. There were plenty of jokes along this line.... at one point an bear or elk (they eat nestlings too) smashed one of our nest boxes and ate everything inside.
Nothing juicier than tiny naked birds evidently.

Are there Martins in Az? Those things massacre bird nests.

I'm sure there are some weasel species in AZ (it's a very diverse state) but in our area the chipmunks and red squirrels are the #1 nest predators (in general that's true for songbirds). And then there are house wrens which kill other songbirds' nests because they're tiny little super competitive devils.
