    Let's talk about sex redux

    Ok, so what are the best spots for sex in public? One site suggested the "Employee Only" areas that connect the stores in a shopping mall. I am going to be in a shopping mall later, anyone have any idea if this is a good call or not? If not I'm thinking the top of one the multi level...

    I liked creatine when I was doing Starting Strength, I feel like it definitely helped me. Beyond that just whey, and even whey is only maybe a scoop or two in my oatmeal or milk. Fish oil was all the rage for a while but I stopped with that.

    Speaking of cock rings and porn... I just ran across this site:http://www.yourbrainonporn.com/ tl;dr as far as I can tell is: Fap to a lot of porn and it may lead to ED or other dysfunction.

    Same. I like the boot cut fit personally. They are weird though because I've ordered different cuts from them and the material is different for relaxed indigo as compared to boot cut?

    I like Brooks Brothers as well. I tried looking at those style forums and others in the past but they seem to like the hipster, tight pants, weird looking shit.

    Yeah the guys now with gear are just massive. They make Arnold look small. I personally dont like the look. My ideal build is like the old time guys like Steve Reeves. I believe he is 6'1 and 215 here:

    Arnold was ~230 at 6'2 when he was winning Mr Olympia's, just as a reference point. Trying to get lean and trying to gain mass will just be a frustrating cycle for you if you do it at the same time. A lot of people do cut and bulk cycles, and I'm seeing a lot of people deciding to stay...

    So any info on who this guy is yet? I'm curious to see what kind of nut he turns out to be since the location seems so arbitrary. Not a government building or military base. No financial institution, religious ceremony or abortion clinic. I suppose it's similar to the Times Square attempt a...

    That was the one thing I liked, it was obvious she was getting off. This girl could put out small fires with the amount she was releasing. Like a cup of warm water poured on me. A lot of clean up required. Meanwhile other girls are telling me they want to learn to do it because guys are into it.

    Get your testosterone levels checked, get more sleep. What's anyone's experience with girls that squirt. This suddenly comes up a lot. My only experience it pretty much felt like she peed on me in one big shot. Twice.

    Paleo 101: How and why you should eat like a Caveman

    Carnitine among other things causes bacteria in your stomach to produce a chemical that your liver converts into TMAO which may lead to higher risk of heart disease. Carnitine might also be a cardio protective. Or neither, or both. So nobody understands it, although some pretend to. They...

    Who claimed that though? Feel free to eat oatmeal rice pasta bread and anything else. Yes you can still be lean.

    Most crossfit gyms are full of jacked guys and girls. I'm actually surprised by how many girls do it. You wont find many huge guys though. A lot of similar physiques to Celebrindal's buddy, which I think it's pretty ideal, assuming he also trains legs.

    Waist is always last to go for me. Just based on previous experience I lean out everywhere else then get to the stubborn fat, and finally kill that. From everything I've read eating enough protein, taking it slow and continuing to lift heavy weight will mitigate muscle loss as much as...

    A friend of mine does this too. He blends veggies up and drinks them for rather than taking vitamins. I would think it's a pain to have to keep using and cleaning the blender though. Unless I guess you can just throw it in the dishwasher?

    Yeah valsalva maneuver, basically hold your breath. Although I dont push in on my stomach, if I wear a belt I'm told you're supposed to push against it. If I dont have a belt then I just fill with air and keep it tight.

    It's a good framework for eating good foods, it's not the only approach that works. Not fearing fat and questioning grains is something that sets it apart from other approaches. I find it makes things easier for me. I could post pics if you wanted but it doesn't prove or disprove anything.

    You will absolutely get stronger and fitter doing Crossfit just like P90X, Insanity, or any other routine you care to name. Try doing that workout and tell me you didnt use any muscle groups. Sure it's generalized. If your goal is to focus on strength, then there are much better ways to...
