    **** my back

    I hurt my back last week doing deads. It was stupid; I let the weight go forward and after having hurt my back a few years earlier (bad posture sitting at the computer all day) I felt a stabbing pain and BAM I was out of commission for a bit. Yesterday was the second day I had zero back pain...

    Tooth Extraction

    I would be careful. The blood pressure fluctuations might cause it to start bleeding again.

    Should I be worried if my scoliosis seems to be getting worse?

    I have no idea. The last time I had my back xrayed was a while ago (3 years?) and the chiro never mentions scoliosis even though it was apparent in the xray. I'm getting paranoid now. Might have to schedule an appointment :-X

    Otomix Shoes for weightlifting

    Spend 20 on some chucks, and with the extra 50 buy some protein or something. I love my chucks.

    Wtf is this how college group leaders act?(on facebook)

    I wouldn't apologize. Simple rule of girls; no matter how hot the girl is, someone somewhere is tired of her ****.

    Gym Confessions (yup, I have been that guy)

    This is why I wear a sleeveless shirt lifting. All the benefits, none of the possible douchebag status :P I hate wearing a tshirt though. Benching it rubs under my armpits, and it's just not comfortable overall.

    Should I be worried if my scoliosis seems to be getting worse?

    I took a few pics yesterday to keep track of my progress lifting. I was happy with my apparent progress, but I noticed I scoliosis I have seems to be getting worse. I've attached a pic so that you can see... it's usually pretty apparent but this makes it looks pretty extreme. The picture was...

    The Rant Thread

    Amen. Through all of my engineering classes I had to convert from imperial to metric. Eventually we pretty much only used metric and things were much easier that way.

    Student puts Obama on the spot

    Forgive my lack of understanding of the bible, but I always assumed that tolerance at least in some aspect was expected. "for whoever is not against us is for us" (Mark 9-40)

    Cell Phones and the Gym

    I don't see cell phones in most instances as a distraction that hinders my workout. I have very rarely seen them used in a way by others what hurts my workout. I give some people some slack. If I have to wait an extra minute to use the squat rack because someone is checking their phone, I chalk...

    Student puts Obama on the spot

    This country wasn't founded to be a christian nation. Sure, it has loose christian ideals at it's roots, but the majority of people who came here, came for religious freedom. That is why, by omission, there is no national religion. Had this been a christian nation, it clearly would have been...

    Bama campus shooting?

    Already have mine. Unfortunately schools are gun free zones. There are some loopholes but no way for a sane, law abiding citizen to carry in a school for self defense. I still take the opportunity provided by my country and state to legally carry for the possibility of self defense. Gun free...

    fitted shirts...

    Express shirts fit me very well, and I usually wear a large T or dress shirt. A large fits me like a medium though. Gotta get it a size big.

    Whats more relaxing/stress relieving

    Going to the gym or going out shooting? I say lifting, but the serenity of putting 400 or so rounds down range comes in a close second. Discuss.

    Cell Phones and the Gym

    I keep my phone in my pocket because it is my MP3 player. Plus, if something were to happen and I need to be contacted it's there. Plus during cardio I can watch a movie or something to keep my mind off the bike and let time pass. I've let myself slip and taken a call/texted someone while...
