I HAVE FUCKING HAD ENOUGH AND I'M NOT TAKING IT ANYMORE.

No, I'm not going to kill myself. Not yet at least. Sorry ilikesteak and Shlongy.

I've had enough of this namby pamby, whiny sentiment on Ubersite that reeks of resignation to video games, lethargy and general apathy towards being in GOOD shape.

Some of you don't even know what it's like to traverse more than 1 flight of stairs and NOT be seeing stars and reaching for the nearest guardrail out of exhaustion.

Most of you are sloths. But I am going to do what I can to change this situation.

After much thought and over 15 years of direct experience in the field of kinesthetics I have decided to compile a handy list of 30 (yes, thirty) tips that will help you become a healthier person. Of course I mean PHYSICALLY, as we all know that if I were to offer psychological advice it'd be a laughable effort to say the least.

In case ANY of you question my expertise in this field, suck AIDS and die. I know exactly what the fuck I'm talking about and if you endeavor to challenge my advice you will be immediately embarrassed.




So here is post #1, tips 1-6. Each subsequent post will contain another 6 tips until 5 posts have been created that YOU can refer to later and HENCE HAVE NO EXCUSE TO PUT DOWN THE FALAFEL AND PICK UP THE GYM BAG.

Not that there's anything wrong with Falafel.


Without further ado I present to you #1-6.

__________________________________________________


#1: Start taking your well-being seriously

Until you start seeing your physical level of fitness as a necessary component for overall happiness, you will remain that pasty, fat nerd at the computer. Hadley. I'm talking to you.

I will here posit the following theorem which I will be referring to later in this series:

If any person is not in their best shape, they are not as happy as they could be.

Seems intuitive, right? It's true. Becoming consistently comfortable in your own skin HINGES on your mind's connection to your body. The better suited your body is for maneuvering through this life, the more enjoyment you will see in your day-to-day.

I don't care if you're 60 years old and reading this, it applies. Shlongy.


#2: The level of discomfort that comes with physical exercise diminishes sharply after 1 week of a new exercise regimen.

Many people don't care to get involved with a workout routine because it just SUCKS to work out. AND IT SHOULD!! Why? Because your BODY is, in most cases, not prepared for what you'll be doing to it and will as such retaliate with aches, whines and other Indications of Change.

(Note the caps there. Indication of Change. An Indication of Change can be considered soreness, fatigue, joint pain and even insomnia. As your body changes, the transition period is often accompanied by lots of messages coming from your body that appear to say things like "Fuck you asshole" and "Wtf is this bullshit". Just be aware.)

After 4, 30-minute+ stints either working in the gym or doing something that escalates your pulse to the desired optimal heart rate (which we will discuss later) you will start to notice that 'working out' gets easier.

Soon, it will become FUN. Watch.

#3: Stop caring about what other people in the gym look like or what they think of you.

This shit right here pisses me off.

If you're going to work out, do it for you. Don't do it because there's a guy next to you who has bigger arms and you just HAVE to push yourself harder to get to his level. That's fucking juvenile and will only form lofty goals in your head that will frustrate you, as true body changes take time.

When you're exercising, there needs to be constant communication going on between YOU and your BODY. Not YOU and someone else's body. I suppose it's fine to engage in small talk in between sets but focus on why you're there at all. It's not to envy and it's not to showcase.

#4: Commit to eating a multivitamin. Every. Day.

This advice is probably the easiest to follow. Spend $15 or so and get a nice supply of Centrum, One-a-Day or other suitable multivitamin supplements. We're not talking about a handful of pills here, either. Just one.

Visit http://www.vitaminworld.com for some great options.

If taken every day, you will be giving your body what it needs to perform at the level I'm suggesting. Some of the minerals you get from supplements you simply do NOT get enough of if your diet isn't perfect.

Some important components of multivitamins:

Zinc.
Various amino acids required for muscle growth and sustenance.
Niacin (for efficient toxin processing during exercising)
Omega 3-6-9 acids (for cardiovascular health)

If you suffer from stiff or painful joints, consider adding Glucosamine.

My personal daily cocktail is 1 Centrum Complete multivitamin, 2 Omega 3-6-9 gelcaps and an L-Carnitine supplement (an amino acid).

#5: DO NOT THINK YOU'RE GOING TO GET IN SHAPE OVERNIGHT. OR IN A WEEK. OR IN A MONTH.

I hate to dash your hopes, but if you want lasting results you have GOT to temper your expectations. One of the biggest reasons people fallout from their workout commitments is because they don't see the changes they were expecting when they started.

Listen...depending on a number of factors (metabolism, diet, genes, existing level of physical activity) it might take as long as 60 days (~20 workouts) before you even start to see recognizable results. The idea is however that change WILL come with persistence. Just don't delude yourself into thinking you'll be in kick-ass shape by next Tuesday.

#6: Try every...last...method of cardiovascular exercise until you find the one you ENJOY.

Some people despise the treadmill. These same people might LOVE spinning on a stationary bike (I'm one) or rollerblading. Or rowing. Or swimming. Or what the fuck ever...the point is, the cardio activity you decide to do should be the one you ENJOY doing the most. Try all of the cardio options available to you at least once to determine which is the most palatable for you.

I'm partial to light rowing followed by intense spinning.



I'll continue on with this series and I don't care who likes or doesn't like that I'm even doing this. I happen to think there are many of you who could REALLY benefit from getting out there and changing your physical level of fitness for the better.

You can pay me later when you start getting laid and not waking up feeling like death.

And now, a picture of my new downhill bike:

About 5 weeks ago, the following things occurred on the same day:
1) I got a palmar wart (small, but painful)
2) I tried to give blood. Tried, but couldn't finish...the blood stopped pumping into the bag, most probably because they couldn't find a vein under my pudge.
3) My back gave out while I was brushing my teeth. Brushing my fucking teeth.

So I started using my gym membership after about a 6-week hiatus.

I think this is one of the better post themes around here in a while. A few of the tips hit home quite hard (namely, caring what the big dudes in the gym think).

Peak physical fitness is achievable at the expense of a decent social life, or other activities you enjoy.

Multi-vitamins are useless; your body can't metabolise that quantity of vitamins in one go. You'd do better crushing half of one into a soup at breakfast and lunch, but not much better.

You can say we need to get our nutrition from FOOD but our SOIL is fucked and worthless. I would pull up source upon source covering this but I am far too lazy.

On a side note, multivitamins aren't for everyone. Obviously people on dialysis and with severe renal dysfunction/failure for example have to be really careful of what they take. I'm not even going to get all technical here although I reaaaaaaally want to, because I could talk about kidneys all the live long day.

A multivitamin shouldn't be a replacement for healthy food. Using one as a quick (lazy) way to make sure you get everything you need is nonsense. If you can take the time to work out your diet to make sure your not going to be getting too much of a certain group, you may as well take the time to eat a balanced diet. People who do eat a balanced diet should have no need to take an all round pill. This is why i say not EVERYONE should take them. If you are lacking in a certain area, make your supplements more specific to YOUR needs.

I have worked and studied in pharmacy, and I am yet to come across a pharmacist or doctor who recommends that EVERYONE should take a multivitamin, I am certainly yet to find one that would recommend it as a substitute.

Other people have put the rest of my argument forward.

I thought this was a good post and moving in the right direction. I always have respect for anyone who takes care of his or her body and physical health. I just don't think this was the best advice you could have given. I would have expected you to put more emphasis on healthy, balanced eating.

That's all. I didn't mean to cause a ruckus.

You are remarkably ignorant.

"Very few doctors and trainers recommend multi-v's"

I've yet to meet one. And though I'm only 29 (just turned TODAY TYVM) I've had plenty of conversations with some pretty respected people not only in medicine but physical fitness and bodybuilding -- which, I might add, can be sources of great information just like a quick trip to webMD.com can.

Your arrogance is in sharp contrast to what you actually state is WRONG with what I typed here.

_____

*sigh*

I waded through your semiliterate response and am taking "I've yet to meet one" to, in legible English, mean "I've never met a doctor or trainer who HASN'T recommended multi-v's". If that's not what you were trying to say then you are in agreement with me and I don't know why you're being so offensive.

http://www.health.harvard.edu/newsweek/Multivitamins-Should-you-buy-this-insurance.htm

Harvard health showing how clinical trials seemed to show that multi-v's had no effect on preventing or reducing the risk of heart attack, stroke or dementia.
It also notes how those that take vitamin supplements are usually those with the healthiest lifestyle anyway, that are therefore in little need of them. This leads to the question, are the vitamins having any effect beyond the otherwise healthy lifestyle of the vitamin takers?

http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/short/297/8/842

An article by the Journal of the American Medical Association suggesting that antioxident and vitamin supplements may INCREASE mortality.

But there is evidence the other way. In fact, the subject is so convoluted that the National Institute of Health reached consensus in a May 2006 meeting that:

"The present evidence is insufficient to recommend either for or against the use of MVMs [multivitamins/minerals] by the American public to prevent chronic disease."


I have one question. What information were you privy to that led you to a more determinate conclusion than the combined knowledge of Harvard, the Journal of the American Medical Association and the National Institute of Health?

For someone who knows exactly what they're talking about you got an awful fucking lot of this wrong.

Very few doctors and trainers recommend multi-v's, preferring that you get the nutrition from food itself. The ONLY consistent support i have seen for vitamin supplements is the Omega group and even then just get on the oily fish.

As for "best body = best happiness", my personal experience has taught me that a pretty good, pretty healthy body is better than a 'perfect' one because you're dedicating so much effort into physical improvement other parts of your life suffer.

That's all i had a problem with, but i only skimmed it.

A huge problem with multivitamins are that they, for the most part, have an extremely low absorbency rate. This depends partially on the individual, but mostly with the vitamin/mineral itself. Many times you will just poop out vitamins WHOLE, still being able to read "Centrum." That is of course if you have some kind of poo fetish and like to handle and mill around in your own feces, which I do not recommend. So I would say spend more and get more out of what you're consuming instead of paying less and not absorbing anything fully into your bloodstream.

Riding down a mountain takes MUCH effort. This is because it's never a straight line to the bottom and the runs are typically 15-20 minutes of pulling on the bars and steering the bike with your torso.

It's actually quite exhausting.

90% of people will not need a multivitamin if they eat a balanced diet.

Don't give out advise to people like that.
---------------------
LM is right. Most people just eat shit all day and then feel weak because they don't get enough of certain nutrients. If you prepare your own food out of real ingredients you'll feel stronger, any skin problems will probably clear up, and the food will taste A LOT better.

The vitamin comment above is NOT correct. Even if you eat a balanced diet all the time you will not take in the proper nutrients for OPTIMAL health.

At the New England Open I went intermediate for gi and no-gi. I took a silver and a bronze respectively so next time I'll go advanced. The fear will make me train harder.

===
A lot of people don't get their vitamins/calcium/iron simply because they don't eat right. Some of my best friends are thin people who eat like CRAP.

If you choose convenience foods instead of fruits and vegetables and drink soda instead of fortified juice, where are you getting your vitamin C? And women who forgo dairy products for diet reasons probably aren't eating enough calcium-rich non-dairy foods to get what they need. I eat dairy, and I still take calcium supplements. I don't always eat enough iron-rich/fortified foods, so I depend on my multivitamin to get it.

Alright...more commentary on supersetting:

http://www.bodybuilding-supplement-guide.com/weight-training-super-sets.html

The TRUE definition is simply two or more exercises that work the same muscle group done back to back.

What I term 'superset' however involves two or more exercises that work the same muscle group yet increase in weight and lower in rep.

Semantics.

Consider your membership to the steakhead brotherhood revoked.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_training

"Supersets
Supersets combine two or more exercises with similar motions to maximize the amount of work of an individual muscle or group of muscles. The exercises are performed with no rest period between the exercises. An example would be doing bench press, which predominantly works the pectoralis and triceps muscles, and then moving to an exercise that works just the triceps such as the triceps extension or the pushdown."

http://exercise.about.com/cs/weightlifting/a/supersets.htm

"Supersetting is an advanced training method in which you do two exercises, one after the other, with no rest in between. The exercises can be for the same muscle group or two different muscle groups, depending on your goals. The idea is to do one exercise and, instead of resting and doing another set, doing a different exercise and alternating those exercises for your desired number of sets."

If they are for women on mats they probably aren't focusing on a single body part but still want you to do them without a rest in between so you get more of an aerobic aspect to the workout.

Technically, a superset (or 'pyramid' set) simply means starting a certain exercise with lower weight/higher reps (i.e. bench pressing 100 pounds 16 times) and then adding weight/lowering reps at each set until 4-5 sets have been completed.

I superset on bench starting with 135 lbs x 20 reps, then 185 x 14 reps, then 225 for 8 reps, then 275 for 4 reps.

Supersetting is excellent for adding mass...I wouldn't recommend it for adding tone or losing weight.

-----------------

Oathy, what the hell kind of meat head are you?

A super set would be doing bench, then immediately moving to wide grip bench, then switching to fly's. The idea is that you do two (or more) exercises that focus on one muscle, and don't break between. Sometimes you do the same exercise with lower weight, but the main idea is that you don't rest between them, and each exercise should be to failure, so you would never go up in weight, just down.

the easiest formula I've seen is to divide you dinner/meal plate in quarters....place meat/protein in 1 quarter, whole grain in another and vegetables in the last two....tada....good meal.

And what FG said about Glycemic index is on point....people have no idea how much up and down swings in their blood sugar affects their moods (and sexual performance...AHEM SHLONGY)

I dunno, this appealed to me for some reason. Probably the apparent sincerity combined with just a pinch of hipocrisy (had a prof who once said that it was hipocrisies that define people). Speaking of hipocrisies, you forgot lucky #7: BE SURE TO SPEND LOTS OF TIME ON INTERWEB FORUMS GRIPING AT FATTIES AND GIRLY-MEN AND POST PICTURES OF YOUR BIKE SO THAT THEY MAY WITHER IN E SHAME.

i didn't start paying attention to any of this until after I developed Diabetes at the age of 31. Now I can't walk by someone eating McDonalds without thinking to myself "think about what you're doing to yourself"

10 or so years of eating, drinking, smoking whatever the fuck I wanted landed me Blood sugar levels in the 400's


a year and a half later....I'm off of meds altogether and healthier than I've been since I got out of OSUT.

But srsly, what if someone is completely content being out of shape and not getting laid? I'm pushing 350lbs and my mom's basement is perfect for me to dwell in for the next 30 years or so. Vagina's are gross. I hope I never see one again after that time my grandma fell down near the pool.

Nice. A little slanted towards the males, but that's understandable considering a male wrote it.

Although the same basic principles apply, female fitness, and the mechanics of it, can be a little different.

For instance, often women don't get enough lean protein in their diets. Blame it on nearly exclusive salad-eating and too much caloric restriction, but I've noticed that it's a considerable problem for women seeking to lose fat. Notice I didn't say weight.

Combined with moderate exercise, eating lean sources of protein (soy, fish like Talapia, skinless broiled chicken and turkey) are essential to stoke the fat burning process in women.

I get a lot of flack saying this, but carbs (except for a few) hate women, yet we tend to crave those the most.

Stuff like whole grains and legumes are great, and stuff like refined flours and starches are the devil. The thing is, refined flours and starches are everywhere.

The Glycemic Index is a handy-dandy thing to read up on and apply to one's nutritional choices. For instance, a lot of women eat those rice cake thingys for a low calorie snack. Those things are evil. Foods with a high Glycemic reaction in the body (even though being relatively low calorie) can sabotage someone's weight loss effort faster than a Thanksgiving dinner.
Curse those naughty insulin reactions!

Meh. I'll shut up now.

Nice bike, but you'll find that gravity will take it downhill without any effort on your part. I mean, where's the exercise in that?



_________________

Riding down a mountain takes MUCH effort. This is because it's never a straight line to the bottom and the runs are typically 15-20 minutes of pulling on the bars and steering the bike with your torso.

It's actually quite exhausting.

90% of people will not need a multivitamin if they eat a balanced diet.

Don't give out advise to people like that.










__________________________


Firstly, your statistic is completely unfounded. Cite a resource. Until you do I refuse to believe that number.

Secondly, those who DO eat a balanced diet very rarely ever do so every day. We all falter...a multivitamin is an inexpensive, convenient way to maintain healthy levels of ALL the essential vitamins and minerals your body needs.

Your assumption that there are people out there for whom a multivitamin every day would not be of any benefit is, in my opinion, grossly incorrect.

You only think that people are mostly obese and lazy because you lived in Georgia, the capital of lazy fat fucks. Most people are in better shape than you think.

After a week of jogging I realized it would come down to either giving up smoking, which I have been good at for half a decade, or giving up jogging, which I had been not very good at for only a week, plus jogging just felt kind of unhealthier for my lungs
