  • Sometimes I buy a jar of those not because I want to supplement my aminos, just because plain water gets fucking boring.

  • Its a pretty common unit when it comes to discussing dietary protein around bodybuilding and fitness because 1g per lb is a super easy conversion for people to remember. Its kind of the golden number because even for people not getting the best sources of protein 1g per lb almost guarantees anyone other than edge cases and steroid users are getting more than enough to support optimum growth and recovery.

  • Literally slapped?

  • Its the drawn out bullshit that I have no patience for, its a midseason game between two teams who arent going to make the finals... calm the fuck down.

  • Thats charitable.

  • My dad was a deadbeat, I have no idea what functional fathering looks like first hand.

    I have lost my temper at my daughter and thought "That wasnt very Bandit of you." Made myself go and apologise for raising my voice, talking about why daddy got frustrated and how she should do what I ask or listen better but that doesnt make it ok that I yelled.

    God bless that glorious blue bastard for setting me a high bar to aim for.

  • Dont worry bro, some of us got it.

  • You're right on the math front, what I'm saying is that the exporting company/country isnt going to take a loss to sell their goods.

    The question is "How do they think it works?"

  • A lot of them think that the country with the tarrifs levied against them needs to pay the country they are exporting to to sell the goods there like a "If you want to do business here" tax on the country exporting.

    But in all honesty even if it did work that way, the exporting country would just jack the prices up to cover it. The end result for US citizens would be the same.

  • The worst part is that I feel like sometimes in some cases they have a point.

    Some cultures have elements that just dont mesh with general western societies values. Take "Halal" slaughter of animals for example, I dont agree with it because it places unnecessary suffering onto the animal. I eat meat but I hope that the animal has a happy healthy life and then have a quick painless death. But I know plenty of people who just rally against halal on the grounds that its for "them" not because they understand what it is at all.

    You try talking about elements of some cultures (like forced child marriage or a man being legally allowed to discipline his wife) that you dont agree with being brought to and endorsed in your country and people try to brand you as a bigot or a racist for not accepting their culture, I dont oppose "them" I'm against "that".

  • I think that theres almost a "you get one pass" way of thinking among conservatives so long as you stick to the talking points, act white and straight. They will accept a black man as long as he isnt gay, they will accept a gay man so long as he is white and not flamboyant and they will accept a woman so long as she is white and straight.

  • Listen teens, I'm 40. I was a niteclub bouncer in a town popular with backpackers and partying, I also did a lot of traveling and partying. I was shameless, its a miracle it didnt fall off.

    When you say you fucked my mom, its childish and stupid. When I say I fucked your mom while its not likely its possible... and thats worse.

  • First they came for the communists and I didnt complain because I wasnt a communist...

  • So I was REALLY wrong. Lol

  • Correct me if I'm wrong as I'm an Australian but isnt Alabama the only state that doesnt have a NHL, NFL, NBA or MLB franchise?

    (Contiguous states that is, Alaska and Hawaii dont count.)

  • You start with "surely I need more than that" amounts of vegimite and "surely I dont need that much" amounts of butter and adjust inwards over time until you hit your preference.

  • Vegemite on toast is just good.

    Foreigners always fuck up the ratios.

  • Ok you need to separate this. You need food options and you need bulk calories.

    For breakfast, you need a decent hit of low GI carbs and a protein source. Whilegrain toast with whatever or oats is GOAT, add in a protein coffee (Cold brew/espresso and vanilla protein powder) and you have my breakfast. If you want some more calories and fats in breakfast mix the protein shake on whole milk not water. But this combo burns long and slow.

    For the calories at work onsite grab yourself some mass gainer protein and smash a shake with lunch. Lunch can be whatever the hell you want with one of those. One serve of most mass gainers is half of my daily maintenence calories. Unless your job is professional weightlifting, you probably wont out-work this. Although Id advocate for a big boy wholemeal roll stuffed with some meats and a lot of salad.

    I think it would be a really good idea for you to track your intake for a few weeks and get a good idea on how much you really need to eat. My Fitness Pal is ok but Macrofactor takes a breakdown of what you put in and your weight and over time dials in how much you need to eat for what physical result you want.

    In simplest terms for muscle gain in most grown men the rule of thumb is 1g of protein per lb of lean body mass is a good number to aim for spaced as equally as you can throughout the day in 3 to 5 meals. I could write more about the myths and legends that permeate this shit but for 99% of people 99% of the time - This will work.

    Take me for example. My 0% body fat weight would be 155lbs. So 1 scoop of protein in the coffee, 25g. Protein bar mid morning 25g, mass gainer at lunch 50g, even if your afternoon snack is pure carbs dinner only has to be 55g for me to hit the base markers for ideal muscle growth and theres 56g in a double quarter pounder.
