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:

http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wi...inner_Programs

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.

My man could eat pizza, ice cream, and pure lard all day every day and not gain a pound.

Merry Christmas.

The important thing is if they are happy or not.

No. They, and I, do not have the time. You are being obtuse.

He's pretty disgusting.

But a terrific reward for a hard fought life.

You are lying to yourself. If you really wanted to you could.

I mean, I could lose sleep and shit and stop doing household chores...but that's probably not a great idea just because I want to eat more.

Are you saying if I added lard to my diet I could be 6' instead of 5'8"?

OK... I almost threw out my jar of coconut oil and replaced it with lard.

Diet is the greatest factor, not time.

If I want to build, which I'm doing now, I cut the cardio in half and do reps. 3 days lifting with a one mile warmup, one cardio day at 4.25 miles.

If I want to cut and drop fat, slight diet tweak, 2.5 miles before 1 set of 20 at each station. 4 days full body lifting, 1 cardio day with an 8 mile hike to get some sun on my rocking abs. Thank you.

New study showing that skipping breakfast (and fasting specifically) leads to 27% greater risk of heart attack?

Skipping breakfast may increase coronary heart disease risk

July 23, 2013 — A new study from Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) adds to evidence that eating breakfast is important for good health. HSPH researchers found that men who regularly skipped breakfast had a 27% higher risk of heart attack or death from coronary heart disease than those who did eat a morning meal. Non-breakfast-eaters were generally hungrier later in the day and ate more food at night, perhaps leading to metabolic changes and heart disease. The study was published July 22, 2013 in the American Heart Association (AHA) journal Circulation.

The scientists analyzed food questionnaire data and health outcomes from 1992-2008 on 26,902 male health professionals, ages 45-82. During the study, 1,572 of the men had cardiac events. Even after accounting for diet, physical activity, smoking, and other lifestyle factors, the association between skipping breakfast and heart disease persisted.

“It’s a really simple message. Breakfast is an important meal,” senior author Eric Rimm, associate professor of epidemiology and nutrition at HSPH, told the Associated Press. Listen to a podcast with Rimm.

“Skipping breakfast may lead to one or more risk factors, including obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and diabetes, which may in turn lead to a heart attack over time,” lead author Leah Cahill, postdoctoral research fellow in HSPH’s Department of Nutrition, said in an AHA statement.

Other studies have pointed to a link between breakfast and obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, and other health problems seen as precursors to heart problems. While the study group was composed mostly of white men, the results are likely to apply to women and other ethnic groups, but additional studies should be conducted, the researchers said.

Other HSPH co-authors include Stephanie Chiuve and Rania Mekary, research associates the Department of Nutrition; Majken K. Jensen, assistant professor of nutrition; Alan Flint, research scientist the Department of Nutrition, and Frank Hu, professor of nutrition and epidemiology.

Does anyone else look at themselves in the mirror and wonder what they'd look like if they never touched a weight in their lives?

I often wonder what I'd look like if I hadn't started lifting when I was losing weight.

There's probably no more horrible sight than a former fat guy with no muscle on him.
