I thought you might find this interesting. WATER #1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. (Likely applies to half the world population.) #2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is mistaken for hunger. #3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as 3%. #4. One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of Washington study. #5. Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue. #6. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers. #7. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page. #8. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%. Are you drinking the amount of water you should drink every day?
I don't know what you mean by "practical". Gymmanstics isn't practical. Gymnists are strong but so small, they don't have a lot of practical strength. I doubt most of them could move several grand pianos in a day or lift 80 lbs boxes for 9 hours. WRT Strength-to-weight ratio, power lifters are stronger than gymnists.
You're right, I shouldn't have just came out and said this without explanation. I post over at a few fitness sites and sometimes the AAS talk just slips out, I need to not do that here. A few points 1) Oxandrolone hardly stresses your liver. A beer puts 10 times more stress on your liver than 20mg of anavar. 2) Oxandrolone does lower your HDL cholesterol but it does not excessively raise your LDL cholesterol. 3) I have seen some women take 5-10mg of anavar per day with amazing results. I love how everyone is strung out by the media of how 'scary' anabolic steroids are. You should be more scared of all the high fructose corn syrup, partially hydrogenated soybean oil, and second hand smoke you are intaking. I will hault the AAS discussion, as, nothing good ever comes from it.
This is a solid post! NEVER cook legumes in the water they have been soaked, I mean NEVER. Beano is a great product. I have used it before and was quite happy with the results.
Just google search "alkalizing body" and you will find PLENTY of information. www.snyderhealth.com is a good place to start.
Lol, i forgot all gymnasts are midgets I meant getting the most out of what you've got, not trying to out -deadlift a heavyweight. I used to do some damn hard work, climbing scaffolds, shoveling, sqautting, hurling around 35kg drill heads, jumping, shoving, lifting, clambering around like a monkey on a drilling rig. Because of dodgy joints/injuries, i had to keep in shape as well as i could, and i found that heavy weight routines, like most bodybuilders routines, (or powerlifters workouts) just didnt seem to give me the extra power, and strength i needed. I was lifting progressively heavier weights easily, but out in the feild, i couldnt really use the extra power, i presume because most lifts only go through a certain motion, leaving some of the muscular structure/overall joint integrity etc lagging somewhat. Everyones different, but i found switching to quite light weights and much higher reps, as much bodyweight stuff as i could handle, (hindu squats, chinup bar exercises etc)combined with the occasional blast of static lifts/exercises for the power (instead of just heavier weights) i got much better results, power i could actually use, and more of it. Thats what i meant by usable, or practical strength, and i agree, gymnastics is dumb, but id like to see the average fitness freak try and do a crucifix, and i sure wouldn't have any complaints if i was built like one of those guys. Of course, im a lardo now, so maybe its redundant, but thats what i found.
Hi Matt I had asked earlier about alkaline effect of Apple cider vinegar. Is it safe to take this product? Please comment. Thanks
