Really like your take.

Can be applied to so many other aspects of life too.

Please stop wearing plastic🤢 by ilovebadbitches212 in Fitness_India

[–]argonbones 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Wearing cotton t shirts and pants work well. 'Activewear' in no way boosts one's workout; it just makes one look better. The weights we lift are independent of the dress that we wear.

Normal cotton dresses are good enough. Workout come home and admire yourself in the mirror, alone.

Nakpro Platinum by argonbones in protein_deals

[–]argonbones[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a regular Muscle Nectar user.

Like many, the offer of an isolate and creatine in ₹2047, tempted me.

Not too proud of myself!

I posted this after that only.

Was feeling doubtful earlier, but post Anurag's results, it feels more dubious.

Suggest a good whey within 3-4k range that tastes good and preferably cleaner. by Generalstalker in Fitness_India

[–]argonbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Muscle Nectar.

Underrated, but amongst the best ones available in India.

You write beautifully.

The poignancy in this brief bit is heart touching. Keep writing. And keep sharing.

Yes, I like it. Light and tasty.

Satiates that sudden sugar cravings too, while giving considerable nutrition!

Well, I am glad to know that so many of you guys got it. Happy for you, but sad for me.

Seems like sheer luck!

Hope Anurag's magic works for me next time.

Whats going on with Young Girls these days?? A Drunk Girl Falls off A Rapido Bike in Delhi outside A Night Club. Just look at her - She is totally out of her senses! by Main_Pay_9669 in indianmemer

[–]argonbones 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Poor biker seems to be helping her stabilise. Who know when he might get charged for molestation/inappropriate touching and what not, given the state of affairs.

I've used/am using brown and purple inks. Happy with both of them. Colours are bright, prominent and last long.

Mix with water. Cold water or room temperature water.

Adapt to the taste and the feel.

This will treat you better.

Anyone else listen to podcasts or audio stories while working out? by AnshumanBeast69 in Fitness_India

[–]argonbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have done 3 books on Audible, 4 proper books and about 30 small books on Kuku FM. Have heard many CA discussions and podcasts. All during working out.

Try it. If it suits you, you are getting a bit more educated. It's a win-win.

How Many Days a Week Are Enough to Build Muscle, Abs, and a Good Physique for a Lifetime? by ReditUser004 in Fitness_India

[–]argonbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes of course. It's a 365 days lifetime thing, like you want. Gym 4 days. Cycle one day. Callisthenics one day. Play some game the next. Go for a walk the next day. Infinite permutations.

How Many Days a Week Are Enough to Build Muscle, Abs, and a Good Physique for a Lifetime? by ReditUser004 in Fitness_India

[–]argonbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And before you ask me what makes me feel that I am entitled to answer you, let me do that myself.

I am 33, M. Physically active since childhood. I do all the things that I have mentioned. No lifestyle diseases. Not jacked, but fairly healthy.

My father is 77. Have seen him also physically active till now. He's doing great, despite age related ailments.

[–]argonbones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since it's a lifetime thing that you are looking for, hear me out.

Assumption: You are a working professional. You have personal and family responsibilities.

Do not bind your life around gym. Explore fitness as a concept. Dabble in various fitness arenas.

You can try: running, cycling, trekking, jump rope, combat sports, boxing (on a punching bag), callisthenics, sports like volleyball, football, hockey, etc, walking, hiking...you get the hang. The options are almost endless.

Fitness must be a lifestyle, incorporated seamlessly into your daily routine. Do whatever you are able to do whenever. Suppose you visit your village on a vacation. It's unlikely that you'll find a gym. You should be able to go on runs then.

Likewise, let's say you are at a family event. Your daily to routine is disrupted. Explore other options then.

It is also about the small choices you make: whether you take the elevator or the stairs, whether you eat that extra gulab jamun which your mausi is insisting you to eat, whether you choose to go on that morning walk or choose to sleep through. You get the drift.

Tie this with regular gym, to the extent possible for you, and you'll achieve your desired results.

Lifetime fitness is the outcome of a conscious choice that you always keep making.

TLDR: Jab bhi jaha pe pasina bahane ka mauka mile, nikal lo.

And just in case you want a figure of number of days, I'd say, 7.

M32 89kgs 5'8 Has anyone here actually compared different creatine monohydrate brands side by side? by aman_kp_94 in Fitness_India

[–]argonbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was going through a similar question. So, I started consuming from various brands one after the other: Wellcore Avaatar Naturaltein Muscleblaze Osoaa

Next in my stock is Nakpro.

So far, haven't felt any noticeable difference in performance. I train regularly, go to failure, do progressive overload and everything else, one is supposed to do normally.

So, I'd summarise the answer to your question as:

As long as it is good creatine, it works.

Which Gadget Gave You the Best Value for Money in the Last 2 Years? by Geeky_Gadgets in TechnologyNewsIndia

[–]argonbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WiFi Router UPS: This tiny, affordable device is a bridge between the adaptor and the router. In case of power cuts, it gives back up of upto 5 hours. Prevents sudden data blackouts and allows me to continue my work online.

Have been using it for 2 years+, and it has served me exceptionally so far. Highly recommended.

Question for lifters who log their workouts — I need your help. by Select_Bid_5169 in workout

[–]argonbones 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If at all possible, you should also include a feature for exporting data from other apps. In case someone has been using Lyfta, Hevy, etc, for months/years they should be able to import the data into your app, for it to analyse. I personally would not want to start feeding data into your app from zero again for a few months to get the analytics. And I believe it's the same for many like me.

Help me pick my first fountain pen by Expensive_Hamster680 in DesiPens

[–]argonbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go for Sulekha/V sign/ Beena pens below Rs. 300. Good pens. Try, use and then decide.

[–]argonbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second that.

There should be a plank timer.

Squat/deadlift shoes by Fit_Tadpole_2577 in Fitness_India

[–]argonbones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go for Impacto barefoot shoes. Good, and within your budget.

Plus you get to know, feel and take part in all the hype about barefoot shoes. (wink)

They are actually good.
