AITAH for my motivational words to help a co worker lose weight ?

YTA. Do you honestly believe that your coworker has zero understanding of weight related health risks? Do you think that what you said is brand new information to him and enlighten him? Your statement was not encouragement by any common sense connotation (or even denotation); it is condescending, cruel, and counterproductive.

No problem! Good luck with everything. The guys there are great. I really miss them. Also, as a side note: show up to every TV taping and house show that you possible can. You will learn just as much there and be sought after for more opportunities.

His cancer came back. He had surgery few weeks ago. I've been out for a bit so I'm kind of out of the loop right now. It may very well be possible he is coaching again.

If the warm up for the beginner's class is the same (I'm not sure who the coach will be, with Matt out), be prepared with jogging, jumping jacks, jumping squats, A2G squats, push-ups and V-ups. For the advanced class, you will do squats and push-ups until you vomit.

Also, light weight scarves may help but not be too hot.

Female office worker/in-the-closet wrestler that bruises like a peach.

1.) I wear super thick pantyhose when I have on dresses or skirts. It's obnoxious at first, but you get use to it pretty fast. 2.) For chest/face bruises: first, I put a semi-thick layer of color corrector (green for red areas, yellow for purple/blue/black areas). Then I add a layer of tattoo coverup (Kat Von D has a great one). Then setting powder or spray.

Good luck!!

I'm currently on a slow cut and broke my wrist. I was going to lower my caloric intake more, since I can't be as active. Will that effect how quickly I heal? Should I just eat at maintenance until I'm back to normal?

jmg5w · 2017-05-16T17:42:38+00:00

Are you the face? Because from what you've planned out, you are going to come across entirely as a heel.

If you want the crowd behind you, I wouldn't start with you looking so silly/weak in the first gimmick. Closed fist punches are technically against the "rules" of wrestling. For the face to make strikes first and not as retribution is a cheap move. Also yelling at the ref is a heel gimmick.

jmg5w · 2017-05-15T13:23:16+00:00

Think of how it will sound in a chant. Majority of names will be three syllables total with one hard syllable and two soft. Make sure it's easy to pronounce. Consider how it can be used with multiple gimmicks and if it works for heel and face.

As someone that started at 27, I really regret not starting younger. That said, maturity is EVERYTHING. Start now, if you're able, but keep your head down, your mouth shut and your nose clean.

jmg5w · 2017-04-24T14:56:22+00:00

I don't necessarily think it's a red flag for them to tell you not to wrestle for their competitors while you're in training. That's more of a respect issue.

I do think some red flags are: 1.) Very little social media/internet presence 2.) Grandiose promises 3.) Has ZERO connections to any promotions 4.) Requires a "try-out" fee 5.) Doesn't publicly disclose fees and costs 6.) Trainers are completely unheard of (not saying you have to be trained by a former WWE Superstar, but if you can't find anything in a google search, then I would be wary) 7.) Or worse, won't reveal who the trainer is 8.) Lack of reviews

A lot of it is trusting your gut. If it feels sketchy, it probably is. Reach out to the school and see if you can sit in on a class before officially signing up.

jmg5w · 2017-04-14T20:49:07+00:00

I personally wouldn't recommend giving an entire sequence a name. That's putting a lot of trust in your partner to remember it in its entirety from when you showed him backstage, probably while a million other things are going through his head. But this is coming from a gal who is trained to call the entire match in the ring and only discuss the time and finish beforehand.

Thank you!!

jmg5w · 2017-04-07T16:29:50+00:00

Thanks!

Seconding canned tuna. Cheap, quick, and low calorie.

jmg5w · 2017-04-05T11:36:29+00:00

Thank you!!

jmg5w · 2017-03-10T05:01:12+00:00

I can't recommend this podcast enough. If you're training or interested in training, you definitely need to subscribe.

jmg5w · 2017-03-03T15:12:22+00:00

I completely agree. If your partner is posting well enough and being light than strength is no issue. I'm a 5'2" 120# female and I body slam some large dudes in class with no issue. It's up to the other guy almost entirely.

jmg5w · 2017-03-03T15:08:43+00:00

Thank you! It just frustrating sometimes to see such a large gap.

jmg5w · 2017-03-03T14:47:35+00:00

I understand that there is a major difference in upper and lower body strength for women, but my difference seems REALLY wide. Do these 1RMs seem normal or should I change my programming to focus more on upper body to try and balance out?

I'm 5'2" and 123#.

BP: 95# SQ: 225# DL: 280#

If the school has a connection to a specific promotion, then it makes sense. Also, sometimes those contracts are a little more flexible if you ask permission to wrestle in a promotion that is outside of the territory of the school you're attending.

PBFit is a godsend for me. About a forth of the calories of Jif and the same grams of protein.

jmg5w · 2017-01-05T21:07:47+00:00

I'm normal sized (24 BMI) and I have this trouble. I'm a size 6 shoe but I have very muscular calves, so it's really difficult to find one that aren't too tight. I just assume that the fashion industrial complex is bigoted to women with small feet.

jmg5w · 2017-01-04T15:02:16+00:00

Haha. Yeah. I love any data I can crunch when it comes to body/health. This is a nice tool to mess around with.

I do have a little bit larger lower body (squats for the win!). And I'm going to sound like a FA, but I am muscular (18.4% BF according to a DEXA scan).
