  1. International Customs

    Well I won't be ordering any in any case, but that sounds like a fun declaration to give if I did lol :D Thanks. I'll just stick to food and vitamins for now. The legal vagueness of this stuff is killing me, lol.
  2. International Customs

    Anyone have any information on this? I know most of you are in the USA, but anyone outside the USA or know how this works outside? See, where I live, like 1 in 10 orders I will get a letter from customs, and you go there and say what it is... They have you declare it if its not some...
  3. Prioritizing BodyParts (extreme prioritization)

    Why is that whenever someone asks "How do I do get result A", there's a bunch of replies "I think you shouldn't get result A, because". It tends to be the norm on forums these days. I have been training for 8 years, have been at ever bodyfat level imaginable, and know which groups are lagging...
  4. Prioritizing BodyParts (extreme prioritization)

    Both actually. My arms are in fact always behind, but I also want them to look freaky. I'm not looking to compete and am actually looking for a more 70's look: Thinner legs (in comparison to the rest), and larger arms (in comparison to the rest). Pretty high actually by BB standards. Around...
  5. Why I Don't believe in natural bodybuilding

    And your point would be? :) J/k But, seriously, I get what you're saying, and I agree with it... and it still doesn't change anything. Polygraph testing isn't perfect ---> And? :laugh: We don't have any better tools in society, and its always used in combination with other tools. IFBA just...
  6. name 2 things that drive you insane at your gym.

    1) Drama-Queens (and I'm talking Men here actually). People who go to be seen, rather than to workout. There are these guys who make every single movement larger-than-life and as if on display. Like literally (look at me enter the gym, look at me pick up this weight, look at me lift it, look at...
  7. Why I Don't believe in natural bodybuilding

    On another tangent, I truly feel sorry for people who cheat in natural bodybuilding. That's one sorry person if there ever was one. Why the heck would you go into the organization where its banned, when there's plenty of organizations that are not tested? To win? Well, what POSSIBLE enjoyement...
  8. Why I Don't believe in natural bodybuilding

    1)There is an assumption made here, which is that everyone tested gets the exact same 4 questions. And that the athlete knows ahead of time which 4 questions these are. (they might be 2-general high-reaching questions and 2 random substance ones) 2) In medical testing (for example) as of late...
  9. Prioritizing BodyParts (extreme prioritization)

    Well ya, the question is a bit confusing. Let's forget the arms for a second. My question is more this: Is training once every 2 weeks, enough to preserve my other bodyparts? p.s. Thanks for the routine, I like it a lot, I'll actually use it.
  10. Prioritizing BodyParts (extreme prioritization)

    So basically I've pretty much reached my BB goals in terms of just about every muscle group EXCEPT arms. In other words, my arms are only half of the progress I want, with every other bodypart over-shooting the mark (my personal mark, not looking for competitions any time soon) So... For...
  11. Who here works out with gloves?

    Only reason I'm not using gloves right now is that I have a wrist injury that's making gloves uncomfortable, plus mostly I use submaximal weights (hst training), plus super-slow repping. If I were doing HIT or something like that, gloves for sure. The calluses are too bad. But yeah, the...
  12. McDonalds

    Golden words. Too bad most activists don't get that. Most "hippies" today subscribe to the "ends justify the means" thing lol. If the goal is "noble" then lying and manipulating to achieve it is ok.
  13. McDonalds

    Thanks for that snopes link. I got tired of retarded relatives forwarding me stupid stuff. For most of this stuff (99%) of the time its clear to me from plain common sense. But I think people so much want to "contribute" that they'd just forward a "good deed" email without actually seeing what...
  14. Have this great girl... and don't want to give up just yet

    Kudos, hope you are strong enough to stick with it, which I think you will. Good luck.
  15. Have this great girl... and don't want to give up just yet

    Lol, what does this post have anything to do with what we were talking about? I agree with everything you said (balance and perfection is subjective), but we were discussing the book, which is something else. In fact, its the opposite of balance. Have you actually read the book we're...
  16. Have this great girl... and don't want to give up just yet

    Yeah, but they don't tell you to walk-away if you're with a jerk (which is so common sense, do you need a rich hollywood playa to tell you that)? You didn't know that already? The book is either common sense (if he's beating you up or cheating on you, walk away)-----> I feel sorry for women who...
  17. Have this great girl... and don't want to give up just yet

    That movie should be banned lol. All it does is re-affirm women's insecurities. Not actual fact. Most of the best men on this planet WILL NOT track you down, make every attempt to contact you etc... Good men have been taught to be respectful and give you space. Its very individual. Kinda like...
  18. Calipers vs. Formulas

    Same here. I call myself a mini tom-platz lol. I have 28 inch thighs and they carry little fat (not competition ready obviously but like a lean person's legs)... plus I exercise them like 5-6 times a year. I was more asking in terms of the actual caliper measurements. Like, is it normal for...
  19. Calipers vs. Formulas

    Yeah I should have mentioned that, knowing its the ussual (and very good) advice-have someone else measure it... I don't have that option. No bodyfat measurements in my country. I might be the only one who even knows what that is. So that's what I'm asking these questions to make due with what...
  20. Calipers vs. Formulas

    Ok, so I been measuring myself with the calipers, and they say I'm 17.5%. My bodyfat formulas say I'm 20%. (navy, using neck and waist tape measurement) Miror/Photo of my upper body says 20%, but here's the dealie... My suspicioun is that I tend to keep most of my bodyfat in my upper body...
