    Sad state of affairs gentleman

    Hmm I missed this topic. But watching it I love the quote he gave “Emotional self control in a situation like this is key, or you’ll lose the message in the screaming and the yelling.” It resonates well with me, I generally try not to talk about these subjects with people as I lose my temper...

    Get where I want or die trying Banned comeback

    You know how you wish you knew the exact words to say, to just turn people’s lives around? If I had them I’d give them, and would still encourage you to stick with a log cause I’d love to see your progression. Just know you are not on this fight alone. Every single day for me is a struggle of...

    NPP smell from bottle

    Isn’t benzyl alcohol used as a preservative? I know that can give off an almost subtle floral odor, or cheap watered down cherry liqueur. Even in the smallest of amounts.

    Naw, I’m not bummed about it that much, I find it to be kinda interesting experience. It confirmed more of how much I should avoid restaurant food. And next time I end up in a similar situation I can be better prepared. Might just ask for chicken and rice, I’m sure they can manage that.

    Never an excuse to not train

    Great words of wisdom. I had a bit of a reflection moment last night, and came up with this. All challenges will involve enduring discomfort and pain. That is the fight all of us face in the gym, and can be applied the same way with other challenges. My challenge right now? It’s a mental block...

    Tack's gotta lose some fat, training log

    I was out all day celebrating a friends b-day, I wasn’t expecting to be out so long, and also wasn’t expecting such a dense sandwich. Been kinda hating on myself all day about it, but it was delicious, and I’ll just take the break. I tried quantifying the ingredients best as possible. My cardio...

    When I get back to my sheets, I will do some of my own math for the macros, but I think the calorie reference is good to run by.

    Tack's gotta lose some fat, training log

    Highly active, cutting phase, low fat. Generally I find myself on rest days still being fairly active, and even when I’m not working out, I’m still chasing my dogs and doing yard work. So my energy level is constantly high.

    You know, next week I’ll raise my calories to 2200 instead of 1800 to see how things work out. The site recommends higher. But I also don’t want to dramatically shift my calories too much without evaluating the effect. So here are the metrics I will try to achieve by increasing my calories. I...

    Bananas are the closest tolerable fruit, and it’s been a while since I’ve tried in a shake. But after 30 years off and on trying fruit, I’m not the most optimistic 😛 . I can snack on veggies all day though. It’s really odd, and only one other person out of my life has understood exactly what I...

    Admittedly, I keep forgetting to eat. Like seriously, I will have to walk into the kitchen multiple times to remember I was half way into trying to cook something, or I left something out from the fridge cause I was going to cook something just to have it sit out half the day. I even do the same...

    I had a late start to my day, and kinda did procrastinate to the very end getting my workouts in. But it was worth it. You know that feeling, when you know you’ve maxed out on your last rep, and it’s a struggle to push through, but every breath you take, gives you another inch, and you pace...

    I'm gay, and conservative, dating really sucks

    That would be awesome. And ironically enough, not to long ago, I was a repair technician for said machines… So I have my own opinions about what happen too.

    About to start grilling a bunch of chicken before they go bad. Deciding on whether I want to put the effort into snapping a bunch of photos for another recipe guide.
