I guess we filled up the old one... http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=280149

Welcome to 2014! Now get your ass in top physical condition!

No one else started it so here it is!

**From the 2013 Thread**

If you want to get back into lifting, or need a new lifting routine, START HERE:

If you have questions about the SS programs, look here:

http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ

Keep in mind that you're a novice lifter for a longer period of time than you think you are. Novice lifting can last anywhere from a few months to a year or two, depending on how hard you hit the weights and where you started.

Once you've reached the point where you don't make regular progress on the SS program, you are ready to move on to the intermediate stage, which can last you for a good number of years. Find it HERE:

If you're a very advanced lifter (many, many years of CONSISTENT weight training), then there are lot of programs out there, and which one you pick is simply a matter of preference. If you're really that advanced, you should know what works for you and what doesn't by this point.

I'm also in physio but not sure it's working although I only just started. I'm tired of feeling useless and in pain even while sitting. ****ing suckssss.

My brother is 30 and is in very good shape. He recently had severe pain in his should, come to find out he has arthritis.

Do you really think I don't know anything about nutrition? Clay isn't the only ****er who can lose weight dip shit. I was at 298 when this started, now I'm at 273 as of this morning. Want me send you ****ing pictures. People lose weigth differently and have their own opinions on how to do so.

You don't even ****ing know me. I do know that 30 diet sodas in a month is more harmful to your body than 3 regular sodas a month. You're ****ing lame bro

No shit Clay isn't the only one who can lose weight. He's also not the only one who can lose weight and drink diet pop. Over-weight people tend to focus on the minor facts while missing the big picture. That's 90% of their problem. If you want to have a diet pop go ahead. Just focus on eating less calories and being active, you'll lose weight. Something like diet pop is not making you fat or inhibiting you to lose weight.

Congrats on the weight loss. I'd gladly help you with workout ideas if you try not to insist on knowing everything.

I never once said it'll make you gain or lose weight, so I don't know where you came up with that. I simply said 30 diet sodas a month is "not healthy" and it's not good for your teeth. I never claimed anything you just said.

I drink probably 60 diet sodas a month, plus a ton of stevia and sucralose in my coffee.

I'm telling you, invest in a bench and a set of free weights.

I ****ing love working out in the living room in front of my 60" flatscreen.

No wonder you are so fat.

[Silock]

Inorite? I need to get that shit under control.

So, back to serious questions...

For you creatine users out there, do you cycle it? I was talking to a guy who competes and says he never comes off the creatine, but I've always cycled it.

Also, do you wear headphones when working out? I never have (the cord gives me the heebie jeebies), but I've noticed that I'm in the minority these days in the gym. Everyone seems to be wearing some type of headphone. If you do, what type do you prefer - buds, on-ear, over-ear? Bluetooth? Cord? What brand? Why?

Also, I weighed in at 230 the other day (235.8 with clothes on). I had a goal of 235 to reach then cut down, but I was looking at myself at the gym tonight and I look small. I'm thinking that I could easily put 10 lb. on each leg and you'd never even notice and then I'd be 250 lb. and look small, which means I'll have to get to 275 before I cut down and that sounds really ****ing heavy for my 5'11" height. Have I lost my mind or what?
