steelcity_ballin wrote:For anyone that lifts regularly, lifting is not only cardio, it's better than cardio with respect to fat burn over a 24 hour period. When you're done running you're done burning. Healthy is a relative term really. I like aesthetics, size, and numbers. I want it all
DancinJack wrote:This is actually a huge pet peeve of mine. People these days very frequently reply to their own inferred implication of what someone said rather than what was actually said. You can do this to some degree in person, because you have body language and other things on which you can base an inference, but doing it online is just a huge problem and I really wish everyone everywhere would stop it. If I say I like Samsung phones, that doesn't mean I think they're the best, that doesn't mean I hate Apple, and it doesn't mean I think Koreans are the master race; it doesn't mean ANYTHING besides "I like Samsung phones."I wasn't saying to focus solely on running. (I didn't even say running, just cardio) I wasn't saying quit lifting and start running alone. Nor was I saying that he needs to focus solely on weight loss.
DancinJack wrote:Lifting is cardio. If you mean aerobic exercise, then there's a different argument. If you're lifting properly though, that's all the cardio you need.Eating right and cardio are a huge part to being healthy. You can lift all you want and get as huge as you want, but to me, that alone doesn't make you healthy.

Thanks brewy <3
It's pretty amazing so far
That's good to hear. Which island are you on? Would be starting to get a bit chilly now. We're in the last stages of warmth here, got to about 33C today which is pretty warm for April here. Looking forward to bit of coolness as I'm getting sick of the warmth now.

This led to much wasted time as the whole stream of "Things I Won't Work With" is absolutely hilarious for anyone who has any chemistry background:

It's not an age thing; I'm terribly prone to alcohol flush reaction or "asian blush", my low body weight makes me extremely sensitive to the stuff, and I have poor self-control. As a result of those three, er, "conditions", I avoid it like the plague.Just go lick some wood, roughly the same taste as whiskey and doesn't have an age limit.

auxy wrote:I really enjoy the taste though, especially of some of the fruitier drinks my girlfriend mixes up. I suppose that's weird, to enjoy the taste of alcohol, but I also love the smell of gasoline and adore the scent of body odor, so I think I just have a weird sniffer. Hehe.

The one guy (asian) had a single shot and within a minute looked completely wasted, and was SO red-faced. Funny dude. Also, unfiltered saki has a gross texture and taste IMO. Not a fan of saki in general. I rarely drink these days. If I do, Chimay Blue please.
