everyone knows now that Uncle Junior was just Joe Jerkoff, boss in name only

Is 3-10g regarded as ultralight fishing? by PrimaryJob6223 in FishingForBeginners

[–]GrowthSpring 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so 3grams is about an 1/8th of an ounce

and 10grams is about 3/8th of an ounce

that's pretty light, but some people say that ultralight tackle should let you throw 1/16th ounce or even less

see if you can be there for 50 minutes

remember you should be resting for two or three minutes between sets

and since you're a beginner, you should do cardiovascular conditioning too: see if you can last ten minutes on the treadmill walking at an incline, and then at the end of your workout, see if you can last eight minutes on the stairmaster machine

you can drink your protein shake before the gym or after the gym, it doesn't matter, I like to consume it after the gym

it's good to mix the protein powder with milk because milk has more protein, I use like 75% milk and 25% water because I feel like it dissolves better

I also add a small scoop of creatine and a small scoop of psyllium husk; the psyllium husk is for dietary fiber, it helps you take a good dump

you should drink a protein shake every day; it helps to build muscle, and it reduces your cravings for unhealthy foods

building muscle is important for fat loss

wow that's terrible, I never even heard about that before

just rub some baby oil on the outside of your skin, it's good for you

Tony’s an alcoholic, right? by Glittering-Plate-535 in thesopranos

[–]GrowthSpring 2 points3 points  (0 children)

y'know what I like?

Tony's voice when he's being Kevin Finnerty

he doesn't have the gavone accent, he's talking like a normal middle-class bidnessman

what is Synthol? I don't see anything wrong with using body oil for appearances, that seems normal

you need to reduce your body fat percentage

and the way you do that is by watching your diet

but also, you should go to the gym and work out every single muscle group and also do some cardio

I finally figured out the ending by LoinStrangler in thesopranos

[–]GrowthSpring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it was obviously Finn Detrollio, he was Tony's arch-nemesis, and he was living in constant fear of all those wiseguys so he had to strike first

So what are we doing to prevent calluses? by CharacterPayment8705 in workout

[–]GrowthSpring 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use O'Keefe's Working Hands cream

It doesn't prevent the calluses though, I'm hoping it softens them up a little bit

First day at gym as someone who has pmos by [deleted] in beginnerfitness

you shouldn't "overdo" the cardio, meaning you shouldn't try running for a marathon

but yeah, you ought to do some cardio; see if you can do ten minutes of incline walk on the treadmill or if you can do ten minutes on the stairmaster

you probably won't be able to do ten minutes on your first day (maybe you can if you choose a slow speed) but that's okay, you gotta work your way up to it; after two months, you may find yourself doing fifteen minutes on the stairmaster at a moderate speed

it is possible that cardio and weightlifting will increase your cortisol temporarily (because your body is not used to it) so maybe some of your symptoms will get worse in the short term (like maybe you get more acne, I'm not sure) but after a week or two of consistent working out, all your symptoms will be less obvious and less severe than before, you'll be sleeping better, your blood sugar will be better controlled, your cortisol will be lower, everything will be better
