well, I'm not sure you can make it that far, but you can satisfy a long-running Korean tradition and your own desires by changing your English name! How about that? How would 'Chip' do for you? Is that white enough?

I think "charly" will do just fine

Why?

What would you rather be?

What aspects of your asianness do you hate?

You guys are a pretty sad bunch of tossers. I'm guessing you arent Korean so you have some of those inferior, washed-out asian genes.

actually, I'm a full-blooded korean..

I'd rather be german or something along those lines

alright bro, we can help you bro, welcome to the house of alpha omega delta. please grab a can of keystone and unzip your pants bro.

that might make it worse.. way too many of them at my school are in the "asian frat".. they actually came up to me and asked me to join. seriously.

I hate the fact that I'm asian.

those sammies look fantastic!

I hate this

but the "rap" part brings me to a whole new level of hate I can't even describe

whiskey dick is probably, simultaneously, the best and worst thing ever.

price?? (10 char)

oh dear god this is too much cute to take

feifei - those look perfect on you!

really wish those arcs were still there.. nice price regardless

If by "high", you mean "pissing out of your ass", then yes.

hahahaha I owe you a rep

anyone else here who eats particularly clean notice that when they cheat or eat something high in refined sugar they get "high"?

im cheating a lot more these days but a few months ago the only simple sugar i EVER consumed was post workout (didn't even eat fruit, drink milk, etc) and when i snapped a few times throughout the year and ate a litre of ice cream i was literally euphoric while eating it

shits crazy

but yes I know what you mean.. after every workout, I have my post-workout shake which is basically 60g whey protein, 35g dextrose and 35g maltodextrin. when I drink it I definitely feel a little "fuzzy" inside from all the high glycemic carbs

measurements??

This last one I'm not sure on, because it's my current car and would be kind of hard to part with it.. but knowing me, I'd probably ditch it for a '69 Camaro

Subaru Impreza WRX STi

One thing to also remember is that barely any amateur (esp. standard college student) will put on only muscle. With the 10lb of muscle, you'll likely gain some fat (not sure how much) and retain more water. Overall, you'll look bigger, though.

All the different types of lifting suggestions are great. Personally, I just do my own powerlifting workout. The one thing you HAVE TO DO is lift consistently and intelligently. Don't lift so much weight on your 2nd set that you only get half the reps on your third set. The more perfect your form becomes, the more weight you'll lift with less pain.

I hate it when people skip lifts and then wonder why they don't get results. I see it all too often. Don't become one of those people.

agreed with all of that except "Don't lift so much weight on your 2nd set that you only get half the reps on your third set." I feel that all depends on the person. some people benefit from high intensity (failure or near failure) sets.. some don't.

a lot of my sets are to near failure and I think I have done pretty well for my weight and age.

oh MAN i wish i could down cottage cheese,

i have probably bought 5 containers of it in the past couple years and never eaten more than a spoonful of it.. and itd be the best thign to eat at night

if you're looking for a slow-digesting protein source for bedtime and you hate cottage cheese (or lactose-intolerant, like me), you can always turn to micellar casien or calcium casienate

He will have noob gains out the ass tho, keep that in mind..

true on the noob gains. but honestly, 10 pounds of pure muscle is still on the high end by december.

5x5 routine is a great suggestion. might I throw out westside barbells for after the 5x5 routine.. might be a good thing to build up to since it's not really the right routine for novice level lifters

took the day off work today to show a foreign friend around LA.

Kelly Clarkson, Levi, Rayban, Aldo, FCUK

this has to be a fucking joke.

started working out again for the first time in seven months.

currently a skinny bitch. used to be big(ger).

currently 5'9 @ 130 lbs. goal is to put on fifteen pounds of pure muscle by the end of december.

current pictures:

i guess i'll post "after" pictures whenever it is i hit my goal.

kunk75: i'm looking at getting some isoflex whey protein isolate and take that shit while on a strictly power lifting regimen. i want to see results fast, but i can't be assed to cook my own meals since i'm up on campus four days a week (without a kitchen) so i'll be on a diet of shitty cafeteria food. what do you think? also, is cardio something that will stop me from seeing quicker gains when all i want is mass?

let me answer one of the questions directed towards kunk (I'm pretty sure he'll agree with me).

"i'm looking at getting some isoflex whey protein isolate and take that shit while on a strictly power lifting regimen. i want to see results fast, but i can't be assed to cook my own meals since i'm up on campus four days a week (without a kitchen) so i'll be on a diet of shitty cafeteria food. what do you think?"

shitty diet = shitty results

How Much Muscle Can We Really Build?

The origin of the problem lies in the belief that our bodies can build a lot of muscle fast. Simply put, the average trainee has unrealistic expectations when it comes to building muscle.

I can't state a precise number, but the average gym rat (especially the younger members of said group) believe that gaining twenty pounds of muscle in three months is ''normal." In fact, I've seen many young lifting aficionados complaining about only gaining ten pounds in two months of training! I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but your body (if you aren't using growth-enhancing drugs) can't build that much muscle that fast... not even close.

Normally I don't have any problems with people who have high expectations. However, in that particular case, the belief that it's possible to grow that fast can often lead to erroneous dietary approaches or even drug use (both out of frustration from not gaining twenty pounds in two or three months of training). So I'm here to set things straight. Many of you won't like what I'm about to say, but it's the truth.

Under the best possible circumstances (perfect diet, training, supplementation, and recovery strategies) the average male body can manufacture between 0.25 and 0.5 pounds of dry muscle tissue per week. That is the amount your natural body chemistry will allow you to build. So we're talking about around one or two pounds per month. It may not sound like much, but that can add up to twelve to twenty pounds over one year of training.

Understand that it's possible to gain more weight without adding fat because when you increase your muscle size you also increase glycogen and water storage in those muscles. More muscle equals more glycogen.

A trained individual can store up to 40g of glycogen per 100g of muscle tissue. So if you're gaining ten pounds of new muscle (4545g) you'll also increase glycogen storage by around four pounds (1.8kg). So if you gain ten pounds of muscle, your scale gain will actually be closer to fourteen pounds (if you didn't gain any fat).

Chances are if you're gaining more than three pounds per month, you're gaining some fat.

I like to flush just a few seconds before I am done peeing, that way all the water goes down just when I am done, and it shaves a few seconds off my time.

thought I was the only one that did this. I feel much better knowing there are others out there.

I like to start off a couple feet away from the bowl and aim for the center of the bowl. and I close in inch by inch, so I don't have to restrain my stream.

no sudden movements while doing this. it can get very messy. definitely practiced on public bathrooms first.

^^^ agreed. those are simply amazing

^^^ haha straight up dbz steez
