The BS Thread!

Well here it is... this way if you just wanna talk about somthing, you don't have to make a new thread everytime..

I'm watchin the arnold classic in HD and I feel like a chump lol... damn them and there 'supplements' :mad: lol :p
 
LOL!

i recently had the misfortune of seeing some pics of greg valentino, i think thats his name. :(
 
I know, you work out for years, and then this guy pokes his butt a few times a week hittin the weights a lil harder and looks like the white hulk..

And to anyone not knowing who greg is, I have a pic on my comp bc he's my role model, lol seriously though, it's unbelievable.

That pic is gross as hell, why would anyone want to be like that....

(meaning, that is just TOO MUCH muscle imo, looks like he has tumors or something... NASTY!)
 
i believe his arms measure 27"

and damn, saw the picture again. :(

i also recently saw that show "supersize she". the open honesty was very good and interesting, but overall i still find it a little disturbing
 
Yes, I've seen that show, and it was way too weird. Not even the intriguing weird, just like, "Ow, my libido," kind of weird.

Anyways, I was thinking, what's the worst music to work out to? I vouch for Christmas songs. For me anyway, cause damn, I was listening to "The First Noel" by Nat King Cole and I was ready to decorate a tree, curl up on the floor next to a fire, and hybernate.

Come on Christmas is great. And what better inspiration do you have to run faster then the fact that you can't feel your toes..or your legs..or arms..and your pretty sure it's minus 102 degrees outside.

LoL.. speak for yourself, in FL it's a 80 degree Christmas every year.. :D

The worst music to lift to... hmm.. Christmas music is up there, but I'm gonna go with Classical, hands down.
 
Well when that harpsichord starts up, you can still lift...you can lift your cup of tea with your pinky high in the air while you sit in a wooden chair with your legs crossed and your wig freshly powdered.
 
Damn, I let you get ahead of me :p .


If I wouldn't have taken my 2 leaves of absence, I'd probably be up to around 1500 by now ;).

Worse music to workout to? Bluegrass.

Nothing motivating about a banjo :D.
 
i think that would make an interesting research study. have ppl of roughly the same size, strength, training background, experience but subject them to different types of music and see what effect it has.

LoL, that sounds like what would happen when researchers run out of 'real' stuff to examine lol... All I know is i won't squat or press w/o my chevelle :D
 
not what i suggested but not too far from it

Music can enhance exercise-induced sympathetic dominancy assessed by heart rate variability.

Urakawa K, Yokoyama K.

School of Nursing, Faculty of Medicine, Mie University, Tsu, Japan.

Many studies have been conducted on physiological responses of music, yielding controversial results. In the present study, we examined whether music affects the exercise-induced changes in the autonomic nervous system activity in twelve healthy female college students. On the first day, the subjects were asked to rest, exercise, and then rest for 15 min, respectively. On the second day, they were asked to rest with music, exercise, and then rest with music for 15 min, respectively. Heart rate variability was measured for the pre- and post-exercise periods. Music was given according to subjects' preferences using a vibroacoustic apparatus (body sonic system), i.e. a chair on which subjects laid and felt low-pitch sounds by their body in addition to listening music. With music, ratio of low frequency to high frequency component of heart rate variability (LH/HF) was significantly increased after exercise as compared with before exercise (p < 0.01). By contrast, the changes in LH/HF were not significant without music (p > 0.05). It is suggested that after exercise in which sympathetic nerve activity is dominant, preferred music synchronizes with the activated physical response, further promoting the response and increasing sympathetic nerve activity. Combining music with exercise is therefore not only enjoyable in terms of mood but also may promote physiological excitation and enhance physical activation.
