    Help with a diet regiment.

    My mistake the first couple of days was that I was eating too much protein. Then I researched it and got the proper percentages and it started working much better. In those 7lbs in 2 weeks that I lost also included a a massive carb Nite on Saturday (about 4000 calories). The best part is that...

    Help with a diet regiment.

    I would recommend a Keto Diet or Carb Nite. Carb Nite has a built-in Carb refeed day per week. You don't need carbs for energy. Your body will use fats for energy. Just make sure you take MCT or Coconut Oil, which gives you the fast acting energy boost, similar to carbs. Anytime I need to...

    Anybody else drank the Crossfit Koolaid?

    CrossFit is good to get you in good general shape. The good thing is that there are different CrossFit programming that you can follow based on your goals. Some are more strength biased, like CrossFit Football, Invictus, Outlaw, CrossFit Strength. CrossFit Endurance is more for strength and...

    Social experiment; my wife's stupid fucking shoes

    It would be pretty funny if at the end of all this, she just told you that since you have do much time on your hands for this, why don't you have time to put them away for her, since it bothers you so much. Lol

    Diet Help Please

    If you aren't big on eating breakfast, then skip it. Check out the Renegade Diet, which is a combination Paleo Diet, Intermittent Fasting, and Carb Backloading. This will definitely help you with the fat loss. You basically go 14-16 hours without eating (you can have water or coffee with...

    Diet Help Please

    Protein is what feeds hour muscles. Carbs and fats is what gives you the energy (I'm talking simple terms here). At your weight, anything in the area of 135-200 gr of protein per day is fine. Don't be too anal about it. Just eat as much quality food as possible and avoid as much junk as you...

    Diet Help Please

    I'm 5'7" 170 and I'm eating 2250 calories a day and I'm still loosing 1/2 lb per week. You are feeling drained because you are eating like a 15 year old anorexic girl. Start tracking your calories with myfitnesspal and set it up to loose 1/2-1 lb per week. Do this for 3 weeks and readjust...

    Funny video with my son strapped to my back doing some crossfit

    I don't have a problem with you doing that if that is what you want to do. I'm talking about the people who hate CrossFit and see pictures and videos like that who then trash CrossFit all over the place.

    Funny video with my son strapped to my back doing some crossfit

    Thats fine that you don't care, but it is pictures/videos like that people trash CrossFit. You may not care, but others do.

    Getting stonger but can't seem to lose any fat.

    Thanks. I do compete in Powerlifting (nothing serious, just for fun), so I have to watch what I eat if I want to stay in a certain weight class. Not to mention that I don't want to buy new uniforms for work. LOL.

    Getting stonger but can't seem to lose any fat.

    it takes me less than 5 minutes to enter my food for the whole day. If you are serious about it, take a few minutes a day. Makes no sense to busy your ass working out, getting enough sleep, and screwing it all up because you are eating too much without even realizing it.

    Paleo diet "Caveman Diet"

    You don't have to go full Paleo. It is a great diet, but it has a lot of flaws (I did it for two years, so I know enough about it). You can have you coffee and cream, but I'd replace the sugar with some Truvia or Splenda.

    Funny video with my son strapped to my back doing some crossfit

    There was a guy that posted this picture on the CrossFit forum and he got destroyed for it. People actually threatened to call DYFS for child endangerment. I'm not going to pass any judgment here because that isn't my son, but I'd be very careful where I post those videos.

    Getting stonger but can't seem to lose any fat.

    Wow, all these replies and no one posted the obvious answer. If you aren't loosing fat, it is because you are eating too many calories/not burning enough calories. Start tracking your calories and if you want to lose 1/2 lb per week, eat 250 calories under maintenance. If you want to lose 1...

    LEO Help with Daughters ipod theft

    Depending on the version of the iPod, you should be able to track it with the "find my iPhone app". This is assuming the feature was actually turned on the iPod. If that doesn't work, talk to the parents and pastor and if that doesn't work, go to the police. Just don't lose your cool.

    Gun MFG's and distributors I will support with my money from now on

    These have been the laws since 1994. What has changed since then? That's my point. Read what Midway posted above. And I won't be enforcing any laws which will violate the 2nd amendment. Just like all of the sheriffs across the country have recently stated, so I have no idea what you are...

    Gun MFG's and distributors I will support with my money from now on

    This is exactly my point. These companies couldn't sell ban items to states before. Absolutely fucking stupid. Glad midway has some common sense.

    Gun MFG's and distributors I will support with my money from now on

    Why would you do that? I've been a cop in NJ for 12 years and one of the strongest supporters of the 2nd Amendment in my department. NY, NJ, and all of the other communists states have had the toughest gun laws in the country since 1994. The only thing that these laws are doing is reducing an...
