stage 1 of 'dynamically updated content entered..

- if you keep the main page (adarq.org/forum) loaded in your browser.. it should now 'auto update' the 'active users'.. this is the first stage in starting to make the page more dynamic/updated.. i plan to auto-update at least everything on the bottom of the page, ie: recent threads, active users, users in last 24 hours.. the recent threads one is kind of important... this will allow me/us to just leave the browser on the bottom of the page and let it poll for updates (if we want).






1RM CALCULATOR WORKING.

anyone have any requests?

i'm using:

v_res = 1rm = wei-ght/(1.0278-(.0278*reps))

then for the percentages:

$("#custom_calc_1rm_fres").attr('value', v_res);
$("#custom_calc_1rm_fres2").attr('value', v_res*.95);
$("#custom_calc_1rm_fres3").attr('value', v_res*.90);
$("#custom_calc_1rm_fres4").attr('value', v_res*.88);
$("#custom_calc_1rm_fres5").attr('value', v_res*.86);
$("#custom_calc_1rm_fres6").attr('value', v_res*.83);
$("#custom_calc_1rm_fres7").attr('value', v_res*.80);
$("#custom_calc_1rm_fres8").attr('value', v_res*.78);
$("#custom_calc_1rm_fres9").attr('value', v_res*.76);
$("#custom_calc_1rm_fres10").attr('value', v_res*.75);


icons are now in post form too.. so if you want to calc something faster, it's there for you to use.

peace

Boxing / great boxing tonight - lots of beatdowns
« on: September 30, 2012, 12:31:40 am »
good stuff.. that last fight on hbo was nuts.. dude's ear was bleeding (from internal?).. i can't believe he made it past the 1st round.. he was wrecked yet managed to survive until round 6 or so? each round he was getting destroyed but would fight back just enough for it not to get stopped.

wtf is up with marquez/pacquiao 4... i seriously would rather watch them fight other people at this point.

It supposedly comes with a device within the shoe that can measure one's vertical.  Now that has got to be the sickest shoe ever made because a jump mat costs $500 and can't measure your running vertical.  This shoe has other features too and is also a solid basketball shoe.

300 bucks? damn

wouldn't it be smarter to get one of those portable devices/phone which can measure vert pretty accurately.. sounds more cost effective in the long run.

portable device = initial investment
shoes = purchases every ~3 months

i know when i played basketball, i tore up shoes so fast, especially since i played outside on concrete..

which reminds me i need to buy some new waffle racers tonight.

seriously this rice and beans platter with double grilled chicken (marinated), plantains and pita bread is just legit as f**k.. $11 but it's huge and well made for a semi-fast food place.

what a failure of a website though, they don't even have any food p*rn.

i'll have to take a pic eventually.

Nutrition & Supplementation / Re: Pre and Post Workout Ideas
« on: September 29, 2012, 08:08:29 pm »
Now I know I "could just use" Gatorade but they're really expensive and I don't know whether they are actually effective or not.
Do you have any ideas of what to use before and after workouts. Do I just buy powders and stuff to mix in to make a shake? If so, which ones work well.
I mainly need it for before and after tennis, basketball, or lifting.

Thanks

everyone gave you good suggestions.. being that you're 14, the biggest thing is just eating the right foods.. you need meals packed with protein and veggies.

if you wanted to go the supplements route:

morning: milk (chocolate milk even better) + 1 scoop of whey
pre-workout: a mix of gatorade powder (1 scoop) and whey (1 scoop) + water (8-12oz)
post-workout: milk (chocolate milk even better) + 1 scoop of whey

that'll do it..

but really understand that it's the REAL FOOD that is most important in this stage of development... veggies + chicken/beef, whole grain pasta/rice/breads etc... limit or completely eradicate the junk/junk carbs/sodas from your diet.

peace

For me they destroy my knees... I can even feel the kneecap "move around weirdly" when I do them, and tremendous pressure on it and every ligament etc in there.

i've felt some weird stuff in my knee too on a few occasions.

we need a natty-ghr hate thread.

Not sure if sarcasm...

But if sarcasm, then I have to say - it's too bad atg squats ruin your hips.

no i'm dead serious.. for me personally, i have no intention to ever play with natural ghr's again.. they've tweaked my tendons quite a few times.

I wish I was 7 feet  :-[

You really do? Imagine having a partner for a 69!

No but seriously... 7 feet is pretty big and "unusual" in your everday life. Plus you probably wouldn't jump for shit except if you're Javale McGee or Coward.
