Almost without fail, women at gym do extended cardio first, then lift. Men, assuming they do both on same day, almost always lift then do cardio (supposedly better for men for lot's o' reasons). Anyway, why do dey do dat? (They ain't all blond, either.)

60 in August. Hey, GW. . .stay out of Ferguson or you'll never make it to 60.

No, just the sensation. I am getting elbow pain, though, since I've been able to increase number of reps doing pull-ups. Not related any way I can see, though, to the vibrating thingy (never both at the same time or even same day). Did finally see my brother-in-law, the surgeon who did both...

Phone on vibrate, and inside my (moving) elbow. That's what it feels like a couple times a day, and just a second or so of the vibrating feeling; but not every day - maybe every 3rd or 4th day, and doesn't seem to matter if I've done bi's or tri's or whatever that day. Zero pain or other...

Yep. Just the other side of the same coin.

I seem to recall reading front squats were much safer & better to perform than back/rear squats. Any comments?

The Bears "prevent" defenses that year were all-out blitzes. Never saw anything like it.

Chicago schools are finally starting to teach practical math that these kids can use in real-world situations! (This related to my post a few days ago about the shoot-em ups here...) NAME__________________________ GANG/CREW _________________ CRIB________________________________...

Any advice on the best way to fold fitted sheets?

Curious, since I'm in Chicago; what gym?

Wish I could answer; would have had to have done all I've done in the past 5-6 years without the BCAA's and the shakes, and compared the dif. I have put an s-load of muscle on, though, in the last 5-6 years. Something clicked. . .

Trying to save some money; and, listening a bit to folk that say BCAA's and post-workout shakes are not really needed if one eats well. FWIW, I've been doing both for the last 5-6 years; BCAA's intra-workout, and protein/creatine/L-glut/dextrose shake post workout. Going to cut out (at least)...

The folks at my door just told me Jesus died for my sins. WTF - I was right in the middle of the book, and they spoiled the ending. . .

If you do, pass on the fingerprinting for the background check and save the $50.00. They say that can add a month to the three month *expected* period to get your permit. No fingerprinting, and I got my permit in just under 2 & 1/2 months.

Only 14 dead, though. Wish they'd take aiming classes. Lo & Behold, what's in my mailbox today? My concealed-carry license! Yep; the State of Fucking Illinois issued me a concealed-carry license. Last state in the nation to issue. I now weigh about 1.7 pounds heavier. . .
