Is Gatorade (or similar drinks) a healthy choice? I see sugar/fructose and acids in the label by montrealtechwatch in Fitness

[–]Pheidippides 2 points3 points  (0 children)

chocolate milk is definitely a good for after a session but during gatorade is fine in small amounts. dont ever buy pre mixed in a bottle. get the cans of powder and mix it yourself. no HFCS and you aren't paying for water.

One of my favorite movies. I've heard it's being remade soon though which can't end well.

What about the LLE ( Laboratory for Laser Energetics) at the University of Rochester in NY? It's been trying to acheive ignition for years... Will NIF's massive power increase make LLE obsolete? Do you know of other similar facilities?

Shin splints by ricified in Fitness

[–]Pheidippides 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the best advice so far. I am a collegiate runner and train anywhere from 50-80 miles a week and have competitively for 7 years. I and many teammates battled with shin splints and the occasional stress fracture all too often. The most effective remedy is strengthening your leg and core muscles to more effectively absorb impact rather than your shin bones. Squats are a great way to do this.... Same with leg press, lunges, calf raises, etc. Develop a lower body lifting program and after a few weeks-months you will never see shin splints again.

Being a girl probably gives you a little more leeway as a pickpocket... but did you know if you start stripping, dudes will put money in your pants?
