bigguy99: how the hell do you not shit yourself from two scoops of protein powder? It was my first day using a supplement in March, and I had a date later that night. Terrible idea. Don't do it, kids. I've recently adjusted to the protein increase in my diet. Unless it was something else.
Anyways, I tend to focus on all my muscles (except legs because running) just because I feel weird when I ignore a group/muscle for a while. "A while" means like four or more days. I try to do core every workout, but I just do it two or three times a week. It's about 30 minutes long, and I hate being at the gym for longer than an hour to an hour and 15 minutes.
Do you do light sets before going onto the next workout?

Well I play Basketball everyday at school, During winter I Ski and I sometimes ride bikes.
Im neither fit or unfit.

I use Optimum gold standard, and two scoops really only constitutes about two cups of milk so it's not that bad. I've been doing it for some years now and I've just kinda gotten used to it, but I remember starting on one scoop and I felt horribly bloated. It's just the easiest way for me to get protein.
And no, I don't really do light sets before moving on. Depending on the workout I'll either go heavier with each set or stay close to my max. The former is for something like the leg press, but when it comes to bicep curls I don't like going 10 or 15 pounds more than what I know I can do a few sets of.

bigguy99: That's how I am. Depending on the workout, I do light sets. But I tend to stay within my max or increase weight.
bijschjdbcd: I recommend weight lifting. It's one of the best decisions I ever made. I've been doing it for two years now starting in sophomore year in high school. I've just recently gotten serious about it about five months ago. There's not a day I look back. It helps with everything. As long as you keep a steady diet (everything in moderation) and workout regularly, you'll be good to go. It helps with stress, self-confidence, that whole shindig. You don't have to be serious about it, but just going every now and then might make a difference.

I'm 16, but I get mistaken for a college student all the time.
"Yeah I'm a junior"
"Oh cool, what's your major?"
"....in high school"

Someone mistook me for a high school senior when I was in eighth grade once. Beat that.

ThisIsBullshit: that happens to me all the time when I'm working at the grocery store. It's a struggle having to tell everyone you're a senior.
Unfortunately I can't beat that one.

Probs a good idea Pants.
Motivation is another thing though.

@bijschjdbcd: Honestly, I found that once I started lifting, the actual act became motivation enough. If you get a good pump and you're determined to see results in your physique, energy levels, and overall physical/psychological health, then you'll very likely keep going with it. You don't even need to lift "impressive" weights. I'm stuck in a very low range until I build up my foundational strength, but the pump feels great and I can ride that for hours.
Work it into your routine.

What would you do if you only had 24 hours left to live?

I may try it soon, Improving my psychological and physiological health sounds appealing.

Derp: fuck shit up, drive around like a madman, steal a motorcycle or some shit, and then light all my textbooks on fire.
May 5, 2015 11:13 p.m.
Epoch's right, the pump - for everyone that doesn't go to the gym, it's the feeling you get after lifting and is weird to describe - is worth it by itself. It's a rush. It makes you feel like you could be president of every person that goes to any gym. You're Phil Heath, but ten times stronger and bigger.

DERPLINGSUPREME says... #20
hmmm...
good answer.
I'd fuck a lot of people.
like, A LOT of people.
lots of sex, lots of 5 hour energies, lots of mess.
probably lots of rape, too, but I'd leave that for last, afterall, by the time they'd find me I'd be dead with a sign around my neck saying "respawning in 5"

not even joking.
If I'm going to die I'm going to try EVERYTHING.

Its fucked up, I know, but I only have 24 hours.
on second thought, I retract all statements I've posted involving the word "rape"
May 5, 2015 11:25 p.m.
24 hours to live huh. I'd prob spend it all with my parents, brother, gf and pets honestly. Not super exciting but it's what i'd do.

I DO NOT APPROVE OF YOUR DECISION BECAUSE IT ISN'T THE EXACT SAME AS MY PERSONAL OPINION!!!

I hope everyone realizes I'm not serious.
May 5, 2015 11:34 p.m.
24 hours to live? I'd probably spend as much quality time with those closest to me. My brother mainly to be honest.
May 5, 2015 11:40 p.m.
So Vend Clique seems to have dropped to $55 from $70. I'd honestly recommend you guys pick up a couple now if you want em. People are selling cuz they think they are gonna tank to like, $45.. when in reality, they will prob bounce back up a bit. They are being reprinted at mythic so it's not like they are gonna be easy to come by. Get em now if you want em.
May 5, 2015 11:40 p.m.
...I should not have looked that card up, now I really want to buy a judge promo. Which I really, really shouldn't do.

24 hours to left to live huh ...
That would be spent spending the entire day with my daughter.
(I'm STILL watching Buzzfeed. Just finished the Try Guys try male stripping. I gotta get myself into one of those shows.)

Guess my age now! I want to know what you're thinking of me :p
May 6, 2015 6:53 a.m.
I'm going to go with 19. I believe I've told how old I was in the past, but if you either haven't seen it or don't remember, how old do I come off as? I'm curious as well.
May 6, 2015 6:59 a.m.
You are applying for higher college. You must be around 17.

Lama, based on the image, I would say like 18-22 age range.

NoPantsParade says... #44
Just curious, how old do you people think I am? Granted I haven't been active the last couple of months so it's hard to tell, but it doesn't hurt to ask.
May 6, 2015 8:25 a.m.
ThisIsBullshit says... #45
16-17, you just took the AP chem exam so you're somewhere in the vicinity of junior or senior
May 6, 2015 8:29 a.m.
NoPantsParade says... #46
I'm 18 and have like 5 days until I'm done with high school.
Speaking of chem, I have good news. Our chem final got canceled. Words can't describe how exciting this is.

How old would you have guessed I am, assuming I hadn't told you?

Sparda1127 says... #50
I'm only 17, and people regularly mistake me for (what I've been told) anywhere from 23 - 35.
I think it's in part the full beard, but 35 is insane.
bijschjdbcd says... #1
I suppose certain characteristics are more prolific in younger years but it isn't a trait exclusive to youth.
What age would you put me at?
