ah makes sense.

There was also weighing in with a different, less accurate scale for her final weigh in for her OOT weight loss bet and originally reporting only the lower weight (which would have had her win the bet).

The latest jugglife is really ****ing good. I'd never heard of this guy and he is a bit blowhardy/tedxtalky in the beginning, but overall had some really interesting things to say. I think the highlight is when they're talking about process orientation vs goal orientation.

The Don confirmed impressed with how well we keep brown people out of our country. Who's #1 now, 'murica?!?! Y'all playing racism checkers, we're playing chess.

Trump: Why haven't you let them out? Why have you not let them into your society?

Turnbull: Okay, I will explain why.

It is not because they are bad people. It is because in order to stop people smugglers, we had to deprive them of the product. So we said if you try to come to Australia by boat, even if we think you are the best person in the world, even if you are a Nobel Prize-winning genius, we will not let you in. Because the problem with the people —

Trump: That is a good idea. We should do that too. You are worse than I am

Heard him on the Mark Bell podcast a few times. Pretty OK but very blowhardy. Just kinda tired of hearing lifting weights talked about like it's some grand intellectual endeavor.

^ that will probably save me from listening. This is simple stuff.


Also, GoT episode 4 is out, leaked a few days early. FYI.

bros,

anyone have any comments on the form advice wrt dumbbell rows given in this candito video (don't really care about the other stuff). Is there anything terribly wrong with it?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iigix2yTxxY

Also, if anyone has any other ood links or form advice on db rows, let me know
08-04-2017 , 03:04 PM
DB row advice seems fine. Guy looks like he doesn't lift at all though, so there's that.

Don't overthink it.

Thanks.

Hope loco doesn't see your comment. That dude is like loco's god. Not sure two loco meltdowns in a summer is good for anyone.

However, in canditbro's defense, I do believe he has a very impressive wilks, even if he doesn't look it.

Lol. My boy is 100% natty and has like a 1500 total @165.

Spoiler:



The realities of natty training are based on guys like this. Yeah it's facking sobering but it's also beautiful, you can get strong natty and look decent. Plus big balls from all that CNS training. He is a hero.

I was busy with life, not trying to angle shoot.

The bet in OOT with 27: I was on vacation for almost 3weeks in December. I spent that time in Dallas and forgot my scale in East Texas. I got the flu and was in bed for days towards the end of the vacation, so I just went to Walmart and got a scale to weigh in. I never would have thought I would be called an cheater and said I was trying to angle. I think everyone threw a fit because I would have won the bet. Had I had my scale, I would have won and they would have come up with something to discredit me.

MLY,

Part of agreeing to a bet is being proactive about being able to meet the previously defined terms. That you were unwilling or unable to plan to do so isn't a grand conspiracy against you.

I didn't think weighing in a day later to start the bet was a big deal at all and I still don't think it is. The whole point was to see who lost the most weight. Making me use a fake weight defeats the point of the bet.
If anyone had life circumstances that prevented them from starting a bet with me, I would have no problem with changing the date and most certainly wouldn't be calling them and cheater. I just cannot understand the nittiness of you guys.

Gotta give this one to da loco. After G4S's comment I considered looking for some canditbro noodz, but decided I had like a ton of better things to do. However, it's clear he is jacked as ****. If that's not IEL, I don't know why would even bother.

His eyebrows are bigger than his biceps. Case closed.
08-04-2017 , 07:22 PM
That pic of him is actually in my phone camera roll. But I was at gym when I read disparaging g4s comment, so took me a bit to link. Drove me on full blown monkey tilt that I hit a 1arm incline bench with a 70lb dumbbell for 13 reps.
08-04-2017 , 07:24 PM
EV ROM or full ROM?
08-04-2017 , 07:42 PM
I have no idea who that is, so I wasn't out to tilt loco, lol.

I'll give it to you, his legs look good in that pic.

His upperbody from the video and him demonstrating made him look tiny. When you say he's like 165lbs, that makes sense to me.

Any solo pic without a reference is also hard to give too much credit too. I see some bros on IG who weigh like 150lbs, and look pretty damn good. I bet when you put them next to a 220lb dude in a pic though, not so much.

I suppose it's also perspective too. With both strength and size. If you don't train around big guys, competitive bodybuilders, strength athletes, etc... then I suppose you just don't know.

For example, my wife's best raw bench is 245x8, but she trained with girls much stronger, and she never thought she was strong compared to who trained around her. Same with her 112kg c&j. (Pro BB's and Olympic medalists in the gym). The environment dictated who was actually strong, and she wasn't at the top, and didn't think she was strong. To this day, she doesn't.

And I've never considered my that strong or that big.

Let's make sure we paint an honest picture... YOU had said you were sub-231 on June 28th, and YOU actually said you'd have been 230 on July 1st.

So Thremp agreeing to 231 was actually generous on his part. lol @ you acting like you're the victim. AGAIN.

But, I don't think there was a specific time we had to weigh in.
I don't weigh in yesterday, but I was 230.8 on Wed morning.

We already have your weighins from the 1st till like the 25th. It'd be easy to spot if there was any tomfoolery you were upto.

How about the day before that one? Surely you must've weighed yourself at some point in the past?

I honestly don't give a **** about your life. I'm not weighing in tomorrow and you're not angle shooting this weighin with some midday bull****. The contest has started. It isn't my issue that you can't follow basic ****ing guidelines. You can either choose you prior weighin, or deal with the fact that you are so irresponsible (scammy?) you can't even manage to follow the rules for a basic prop bet on the internet with no money involved.

I will agree to use 231 as a starting weight as you've been at that for basically the last 25 days, if anything that should give you an advantage since you, in theory, have been logging deficit days since then. It is really your choice, you're the one who ****ed up and should suffer the negative consequences.

As much as I agree with others regarding Mlylt being an angleshooter/cheater, it's all a moot point really as he absolutely destroyed her. I'm not too sure why she is banging on about being so hard done by. Thremp was extremely decent in choosing an undertitle especially considering the way she acted during the bet.
