I would agree with this point and ...
Also with this one. I don't know any of the top posters/top rep holders but how much of those posts/rep come from cracking jokes and how much from actually helping someone(fitness-related)?

I try never to help anyone anymore as there are too many know-it-all but achieved nothing little ****ers on here prepared to role out the Pub-med extracts to prove anything from lifting causing back problems to protein killing your kidneys because of a study once run on 10 obese men over 50 who had never trained before.
The problem is that good advice gets lost in the noise and people end up listening to the person telling them what they wanted to hear in the first place so what's the point?
I generally use this place to keep in contact with some great individuals who I share some common interests with.
BTW, I think most of my rep comes from being abusive and the odd sexual favour every now and again to oil the wheels

proteini killing kidneys??? do you make this stuff up?? because that's the greatest thing I've ever heard. I read or saw somewhere that lifting is bad for bone growth and strength.
Agreed, but its not the only ingredient in the personal soup.
No one is advising to eat the same things forever.
Again, I agree. Education is Key.
I agree and disagree. With some this works. With others, it doesn't. The bottom line is that the person has many respectable approaches to choose from.
Not all trainers are good. Their answers could suck.
Trainers are like selecting a cereal to eat. They are not all good for you.I have no problem directing a new person to the stickies on this site in the event they do not see them, and do not see this a huge deal. I have literally done this hundreds/thousands of times. Sometimes I hit and sometimes I miss (dependent on what they do), but if one gets assisted, this is too cool.
This comment proves you haven't been on the board long. I have seen posts by new members stating their navigation skills are poor. By pointing out a weakness, does not default to an insult.
I agree and disagree. It depends on the person, their personal goal, etc, etc. A FBW just may fit some and be very beneficial, with others (with their lifestyle and what not) it may not be the right choice.
Persons have received great results performing a "variety" of training approaches. And, to rule out FBW's, and considering them a way not to train, is simply not logical.
Don't have a problem. You haven't stated any facts, yet.
I disagree.
Self image plays a influential role, but again its not the only factor in maintaining consistency and persistence within dieting and fitness.
What is important is one's health. In the end, when crap hits the fan, all the vanity wrapped up in one's diet and fitness isn't going to matter much, if their health is failing.
Health is the closest thing that can lead to your death, and since we have only one shot in this life, this is no game were are playing.
Eat right. Stay fit. Die slowly or quicker anyway.
Don't eat right. Do not stay fit. Die quicker or slowly anyway.
End result?
We all must die.
The path we take isn't "always" up to us. Though we can try to alter it, improve it, delay it, etc, what trumps all, is the little biological beasts inside us all.
Its called the efficiencies/deficiencies inside us (and family history) , and how this is processed within our bodies. And each of us are different. There is no guarantee that you live long and prosper eating right and staying fit.
Odds increase you live longer? Maybe, maybe not. But I like the "odds" on the diet and exercise side of the equation, despite the potential biological factors that play a role within me.
But death is a guarantee. This is going to happen.
There is simply no guarantee that if we try to eat right and stay fit, this is the absolute key to a long healthy life. Some attempting to eat right, and be physically fit, have died well before the average, to the average, and above the the average. Likewise, persons who do not eat right and are unhealthy/healthy have died young, and lived to the average, and above average.
However, its rare you see "a morbidly obese" person at the average age of death (say for men) around 76 years old.
As I fight eating right, and staying fit at 48 years old (or near 48 years old), I still know its a "high probability" I will not live beyond 75 to 80 years old.
Am I increasing the odds I may? Possibly, but no guarantee.
Age is going to get me at some point. Age will get us all at some point.
The point is I do not know when. If I do not experience death by an outside source (like a car accident, etc), what I can do is attempt to improve the "quality path" that leads to my inevitable death.
And, this is simply proven to be diet and exercise. What else can I do? I cannot control how my body processes food (whether so called clean food or dirty food), nor the genetic/biological factors that are critical in this process, but.....I can control what my body has to process, and this is through diet and and exercise.
This has already taken place. Its far better on my heart (arteries) to carry less fat weight (exposing the abs is just a side benefit). It is far better to slow down the degeneration/degradation that comes with age through exercise, than allowing it to fester on its own. I will increase the "odds" of getting around physically better as I age (barring injury), but still its not really a guarantee I will live longer.
Most of us know research shows if you exercise, eat right, and keep body fat at healthy levels people "tend to live longer", and its supported by statistics; however, despite this, we do not know where we fall within the statistics even IF we try to eat right, exercise, and keep Body fat at recommended ranges. We simply attempt to do our best with what we have, and attempt to increase the odds. Despite eating and exercising, there is a very powerful (and individual) biological factor that plays a silent role, on how long one lives. And, for most, they can have far more control on their diet and exercise, than their internal biological factors.
So we try to do our "educated" best as we work within the perimeters of diet and fitness, and simply control the actual things we have control over.
Best regards,
Chillen

Why not a
I'm gonna work my way up to this by competing in a mistress carrying contest.
It's the same idea but the weight is usually about 40lbs lighter
Unless your wife ate all the pies how is that over-training?
