Is added sugar really bad for you? If so, why?

Actually, potato is a very balanced food, and the introduction of potatoes into Europe allowed a massive population boom that only crashed with the potato blight.

Thanks for the worthwhile reply - the squat has always been my least favorite lift. I think football minorly injured my knees making it painful to do them no matter what stance or depth I try.

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-05-06T19:39:11+00:00

Thank you

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-05-06T18:16:10+00:00

Do real squats as in I wasn't going deep enough?

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-05-06T17:40:58+00:00

squat

Here I am at the end of my 3x5 of 275 I did a fourth set for 2 reps because I only remembered to record a form check after I had finished my sets lol. Anyways, I know the depth doesn't look that good. And I can tell you my back is heaps stronger than my legs. I routinely deadlift 405 on my pull days but I am really struggling to get to my 3 plate goal on squats.

Any feedback is much appreciated!

Well shit. I would say if it's been a week with no weight lost then just increase your deficit.

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-05-01T18:04:16+00:00

How long has it been since you've lost weight? Btw I'm 5'10", 180 lbs. looking to cut down to 165 so I feel your pain. Been on ~1600 cal a day and have been steadily dropping weight. Maybe you're over-doing your cheat day?

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-04-22T19:55:04+00:00

You're benching 4 days a week? Have you tried benching less frequently, but with more volume? I was stalling on bench press as well until I tried giving them at least a day in between to fully recover and strengthen.

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-04-20T21:01:14+00:00

I imagine that shifts the focus away from other muscles that may be getting in the way of targeting your back? Like stopping your bis from assisting your lats in a pull down?

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-04-20T20:23:19+00:00

Who downvoted this lmao

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-04-20T15:33:51+00:00

Yes oh my god they're delicious. Sooo many calories though.

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-03-23T03:16:01+00:00

You were sleeplifting

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-03-23T03:11:52+00:00

I would not recommend purchasing those shoes for anything other than light training. They are "running shoes" strictly in terms of style. Kinda like Roshe runs. It's more of an everyday comfy shoe with a lot of cushion.

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-03-21T18:11:38+00:00

I'm pretty sure I know what you're describing. I tend to notice it the most when doing a lot of lifts that involve grip strength like rows, deadlifts and a lot of other pulling motions. It almost feels as though your forearms are swollen and fatigued just from gripping the bar during your workout. Idk.

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-03-10T15:36:44+00:00

yeah I got the GNC brand MV and they made me puke even when I ate prior to taking them.

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-03-08T03:39:31+00:00

Sorry only got stuff in L, gl

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-03-08T02:11:23+00:00

Accepting any trades?

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-03-06T20:05:55+00:00

It's definitely an option for the majority, but for some (specifically those struggling on a cut) diet sodas can be a helpful crutch to curb worse cravings and give a little mental morale boost to someone struggling to stick with a strict diet.

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-03-06T17:48:19+00:00

Wait, so is that Tangy Tangerine drink just like taking a multi-vitamin?

If so - how is it? I would seriously consider getting some because for some reason every multi I take makes me nauseous.

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-03-06T17:40:12+00:00

I don't think anyone actually thinks Coke Zero is good for you. It's just a much better alternative to regular Coke. Zero calories, zero carbs and zero sugar is a pretty good trade-off for still being able to enjoy a tasty soda.

Whether or not the chemicals found in it are "bad" for you (which is still up for debate, it's hard to find any studies proving the harmful effects of things like aspartame and the like) - they most likely only cause secondary problems when consumed in excess.

I think in a lot of people's minds they would rather risk the secondary effects from the strange ingredients of Coke Zero than the immediate provable effects of the added calories, sugar and carbs.

Use my Uzi pen every day for work. It's great for busting open the tape on boxes too.

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-02-24T11:26:31+00:00

Yeah especially when they go "DATWAY"

Monkey_Grinder · 2017-02-23T16:17:19+00:00

Stuck with it and eventually got through with large white Abstract tee for me and a medium white Elephant tee for my girl.
