no way man, unnecessary insulin spikes from candy/sugars is just going to put fat on you.. look at how lots of natural BB'rs train, of course they go on their bulks, but the good one's rarely eat junky sugars throughout the day, they keep it to complex carbs and then keep the simple sugars for the PWO shakes etc..

candy/sugars is holding your body composition back for sure, it really screws with your insulin, you end up storing much more fat than if you replace those simple sugars with something healthier, like a glass of milk, some kind of protein mix, etc.

getting your caloric surplus from junk sugars = bad, getting it from complex carbs/protein and fats is better, it really comes down to the insulin spikes and how those in excess end up turning you into a jaba the hut.

peace man

Yes, it's cool. As long as you're getting enough protein and fruits and veggies, it's fine for the surplus to come from cookies and chocolate and other things packed with <gasp!> HFCS. Just monitor yourself and if you're getting too fat, cut back on the sugary stuff some.

LOL, I hadn't even seen adarq's response. Well, if he wants to fight, we can fight. I should perhaps moderate my comment by saying that I'm not advocating for the ENTIRE surplus to come from junk food. But it's not going to kill him to get some of the surplus from it, especially if he's having a hard time eating enough to reach a surplus at all.

I can't eat too much so I eat a lot of sugars and stuff and carbs to be on a caloric + while strength training... is that cool?

I mean, I eat protein - eggs, chicken, fish, protein shakes but I also eat cookies and chocolate and stuff like that just to be on a caloric surplus...

I kind of want to gain weight this winter and then in the spring lose the body fat (because I have a lot to lose).

I didn't notice it until second period. By the time I got a chance to go home, I was almost out anyway and I was already feeling better. The whole day was kinda strange.

Also, while I'm talking about school. I have to write an essay on subcultures for English 1010. I've been allowed to use this forum, so I may be sending some PM's out with questions of your opinions and such and I'll be reading through everything I can for the next few weeks. That is of course if you are willing. I'll make sure I ask permission before using any info from journals or posts before I use it.

Word, that actually happened to me at work last week, except in reverse. Felt blah in the morning and just worse and worse as the day went on. By the time I was full-blown sick it was like half an hour before normal leaving time and I had a shit ton of work so I just stayed for a while more. Then I went to the gym but didn't do anything but stretch and roll and by the time I got home I was shaking and had chills and a fever. My point is, that sucks man.

Also, cool about that paper. This is an interesting subculture, for sure.

Now it's time to fulfill your destiny and become a distance athlete like you've always truly wanted, deep down inside.

4:15 mile
13:15 5k
1:05 half marathon
2:15 marathon
8:30:00 Ironman

GO GET IT.

But first, a twohander of the dribble.  :headbang:

Yeah, I'm with my twin on this one. If you're going to deny your destiny, at least get this.

Yeah, I have a bit of hypermobility in my knees: they go back a bit too far when I extend them fully, as in, you know, an explosive triple extension. The extra poundage just got to me last night, I think. SI joint is hypermobile, too. I can put my palms flat on the ground with my legs straight. That doesn't seem to affect anything, though, just saying.

Monday 10/25/2010:

Got sick sometime Friday night I think. Hit bottom today. All during school I had a pretty bad fever. Got home and started coughing. Felt weak in every sense of the word. Sickness drained my energy today. I'll be good tomorrow though. I'm already starting to feel better. Just need some good sleep tonight and I'll be good to go. Hoping to get 200 lbs. for 3x5 on squats.

Why the hell were you at school if you had a fever?

Yes. Right hip is buggin and left knee tweaked during the jump squats but this workout felt very good.

neutral focus
SH:SP:SR:SH:SP:SR:SH:SP:SR:SH:SP:SR:

power focus
SH:SP:SP:SR:SR:SH:SP:SP:SR:SR:
speed/reactivity focus
SP:SR:SR:SR:STIM:TEST

warm up
shoot hoops -- hot and cold
core stretches fast

work
tuck jumps x10
pogos 2x10
15y sprint x4
1-step jump x15*

REA squat 2x3x95
jump squat 3x3x95
squat 3x2x285 -- first rep was awful but rest were pretty good
OHP 3x5x95 -- super light but hadn't done these in a while, so
chin 3x10
core circuit x3, no rest between exercises, 60s between sets
--Pallof press x10x80/ea
--crunch x18x45
--leg lower x12

cool down -- took about 35 minutes, felt great
foam roll
stretch

*These felt as good as jumps have felt for me. Was consistently hitting 30-30.5, when last workout I think I might have hit 30 once. I was just amped for them at the beginning and got a knuckle on the rim on my first jump. I think the sprints helped with that. Dropoff was pretty clear after about the 12th jump, but that's okay. Will get better as work capacity improves.

I wonder what it would be if everybody was to post porn dreams so to speak... but heck, I won't because they're wayyy to twisted to be posted :ninja:

You mean other than your fantasy about your mom sucking on a lollipop?

In Atlanta for work. Thought I was gonna have time to work out down here but they've got us planned down to the god damn minute. Oh well.

that sucks, the day of the business trip vacation is over.

Haha, it's not over, I hope. But this particular trip was packed and exhausting. Back to work (the gym, I mean) tomorrow.
