    My wife's family trying to cause problems

    He works on an oil rig. Like 3 years ago he told us he made $73,000 a year, but now he moved up to some type of supervisor he now says he makes almost $200,000 a year. He says his hourly pay is $57.95 but he lives with his mom and dad, has no bills and he really doesn't buy much stuff at all. I...

    My wife's family trying to cause problems

    Yeah we have a son that is still an infant, but they won't let my wife talk about him. They claim they are too sick to come see him, but yet her other grandma that they despise had a stroke last year and still comes to see him. They hate her moms side of the family, but her moms mom comes to see...

    My wife's family trying to cause problems

    Thanks. I kind of had your logic when it started, but here recently it's gotten so out of hand that it's just driving both of us nuts. What's making it worst is I've been off the past few days and I still have 4 days left before I go back to work, so I've been having to deal with it and listen...

    New Split is dumb and over training?

    First of all, you seem to have a lack of understanding in what overtraining refers to. Overtraining doesn't refer to muscles, but systems of the body. The most highly recognized form of overtraining is CNS fatigue, and deals entirely with the nervous system and I can assure you you are NOT...

    My wife's family trying to cause problems

    Why would I let them determine where I live? They never come around anyway. Most of their BS comes over the phone or over the internet, or through the people that we talk to mutually. On the contrary, they live 30-40 miles from us. They moved to Tennessee after we moved and her dad claimed it...

    At what point do you say 'I give up."?

    I learned in the Marines, giving up isn't an option. If you keep your faith and keep pushing, eventually you'll get where you need to be.

    Workout program for size.

    This is the point that I argue when it comes to Rippetoe. The bench press, squat and deadlift are considered "the big three" primarily because they're the biggest movements and they are the tested movements in powerlifting competitions. Here's the thing, the bench press is no more important than...

    Anybody else self conscious about their height?

    This is a very bizarre thread. You seem to have an obsession with your height. Has this affected your self confidence and made you feel bad about yourself? Height is something that we cannot change as individuals. Focus on the things that you can change i.e. further educate yourself, get...

    how do you bros deal with breakups

    I see. I've also been in that type of situation before. If you feel by any chance that she might be the one for you, then maybe you should just focus on getting her back? Tell her you were wrong for whatever it is you done, and letting her go realized how much she really means to you. Yeah, my...

    Workout program for size.

    Rodja raises some great points. I'm an advocate of a lot of Rippetoes writings (some of it), but I'm not a huge fan of the routine. As mentioned, I believe assistance exercises can have strong placement into novice trainees routines. Another thing is the lack of horizontal pulling being such a...

    Workout program for size.

    That's the basic of it. You want to watch calories if your goal is to stay lean i.e. don't cheat often, eat healthy foods, maintain cardio, etc. There also comes in the balance aspect of things i.e. if you bench you should row, if you press you should pullups, etc. Then there comes the...

    how do you bros deal with breakups

    The best thing to do man is just better yourself and prove her she was wrong about you. Get stronger, get leaner, get faster, get more educated; focus strongly on advancing and starting your career if you're still young. Be the accomplished, wealthy, respectful, in-shape guy and then find...

    Workout program for size.

    For the most part you were correct. You were correct with the basics in understanding to focus on compound movements, progression, nutrition, rest, etc. I think if you continue to research how things work you'd be good with physiology, but a lot of people just don't like to learn in a lot of...

    Workout program for size.

    You've demonstrated beyond belief you have no knowledge of training. There's no point in further arguing with you. It's funny how you recommend a college graduate to go back to school and take english classes, when your use of capitalization, run on sentences, grammar, punctuation and ellipsis...

    Once again, if you have grow up and learn a little bit about training that you can actually have a discussion about it without making a fool of yourself, feel free to do so.

    how do you bros deal with breakups

    I remember dating this girl in high school. We were together for about 4 years and we broke up. She and her family decided that I would never make anything with my life, would never go anywhere or do anything, so we broke up. She cheated on me and turned into a bar hopper once we broke up...
