I typed up an appropriately smartass response, then remembered that I am on restriction.

An article regarding the video missladyj posed eariler (or maybe yesterday, IDK). It was made by some media students in Montreal, pretty well done if you ask me but it did seem weird that the baby had no marks on it at all.

It did look super real....also thought it was weird there were no marks on the baby or at least stuffing coming out of his jacket from where the talons grasped him. I've seen an eagle grab a goat and drag it off of a cliff though so definitely thought it could be possible...

fukkin negged...

Yet he's only 21 and can't spell

Brb, repping out overhand pull ups at 350 pounds. 8:40

U mad? Yeah U mad.

Haven't been in here for a while..
Took me a minute to realize a new thread was made D:

Interesting theory of fiber recruitment. Anyone have a take on the theory?

I think stuff like that doesn't matter.

Work your muscle, eat the food.

Work it hard enough, eat enough, 100% success.

Edit: I felt the need to elaborate so some smart-ass wouldn't come up behind me.

It only matters for people trying to be the best in the world.

[softpounder]

Holy, and I can only do 8 pull ups with my current body weight. I feel like a failure T-T.

You most likely aren't on steroids or have been training for years either.

Pullups are easy with frequency

I do 10-15 going into and leaving work. I'm just short of twenty, sooooon.

The other is itching to pick a fight with his in-laws.

With good reason too. The wife and I talked with them yesterday and they admitted to alot of what we had suspicions about ... and then some. No need for nanny cams

Truth here. Marine Corps bootcamp had me go from 12 up to 21 in ~10 weeks just by doing 1-2 sets every single day.

Go jesus, go!

Finished all my Christmas shopping.



How's everyone doing with theirs?

"Evil Russians push-up program" can be applied to pull-ups too if you want to get your number way up.

Going good so far...luckily my man and I want the same thing for Christmas so we're ordering this: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/produ...0&shopFor=true . Makes it so much easier that he's into being fit too. Nice cheap gift that we'll both like, won't use Christmas as an excuse to waste money. Saving feels good.

So, in Connecticut today and NYC tomorrow for my final round of interviews for the new gig. Should be fun.

Keeping my fingers crossed...

Glad it's not no trouble for you. It's always really stressful for me because my family is so hard to shop for. Last year it was so bad I almost donated all the money to charity (OxFam emergency toilets, lol http://www.oxfamamericaunwrapped.com...ergency-toilet )

Good luck and knock 'em dead!

Thank you, ladies! I've been nonchalant about it so far, but now that I'm close to the finish line, I am realizing that I'd really like the gig. Plus, it's like half hour from NYC, which is awesome.

Same here, gone from 5 to 13 pullups in about 8 weeks by doing it alot , packed on a extra 10 lbs since starting bulk (water weight ftw) so the frequency of it definetly help.

Those american prices always makes me jealous, cheapest version of that here is a china copy and it is still twice the price

[bevans100fitnes]

to the OP.... IF meaning intermittent fasting? That's interesting... you think it helps lose fat while preserving it in the boobs?

Is that from personal experience?

I would be interested if IF has an affect on estrogen levels.

So, on that note, here is one that's probably been beaten to death: do you go with reps or with weight?

With AP's, I was going with 8-12 reps at a slightly lower weight. Now, I go with 6-8 reps with a higher weight for the main ones (squats, bench, deads) and higher rep ranges for the rest. What builds strength and what builds size?

I would imagine that if you are not going to failure, going with a lower weight and higher reps would allow you to better gauge when you might potentially fail, and choose a more appropriate weight. Thoughts?

across a spectrum....
lower reps=more strength, more CNS/motor unit recruitment, myofibrillar hypertrophy

higher reps=less strength, less CNS/motor unit recruitment, sarcoplasmic hypertrophy

You cannot have one without the other, but at one end there will be less of one than the other.

[krete77]

15 pullups is my max..

[matman1813]

Can't even do a single chin up. feelsbadman

Tried doing assisted chin ups / negative chin ups to get started ?

Quick cliffs of the data on the points being discussed on fiber and motor unit recruitment. Recruitment of all available and upperthreshold fibers can be done in several ways.

Intensity - loads of 90% intensity or more recruit all fibers on every single rep.
Hypertrophy rep ranges - loads of 70-80% instensity usually recruit all motor units once the initial fatigue sets in by rep 5-6, so any set taken within a couple reps of reaching failure with these loads will recruit all motor units
Metabolic fatigue - using weights below 70% but using high reps and several sets to exhaust metabolic pathways and lower threshold fibers so that upper threshold fibers must be used to move the weight (GVT works off this method)
Dynamic effort work - light weight being accelerated for very high bar speed (standard powerlifting speed work for example) recruits all motor units and available fibers on most or all reps.

There is no scientific data showing conclusively that you can chage the ratio of sarcoplasmic to myofibrillar hypertrophy that you are genetically prone to through training style.

[kingnickandnate]

Can only do 4 pull ups max, i know the feel...
