  1. Crossfit workouts at a regular gym?

    Thank you for not being "that guy."
  2. Looking for high tempo workout music...any recommendations?

    "I Want Out" by Helloween "Ghost Division" and "Unbreakable" by Sabaton "Thunderstruck" and "Heatseeker" by AC-DC (much other AC-DC is good, too) "Tubthumping" by Chumbawumba "Spooks in the Attic" by Edguy "Ironhead" by Rob Zombie "Iron Man" by Black Sabbath "Iron Maiden" by Iron Maiden...
  3. Programming languages for total newbs.

    I'm amazed at the number of replies saying that C++ is a good idea. He might be able to get C++ up and running, and he might be able to learn a thing or two, but I disagree that you can make a strong argument that C++ is the best place to start. I started with it, and even Java was a breath of...
  4. How much did you make straight out of school?

    Started at $30k, raise at 6 months to $35k. May 2009 graduation, BS CS/Math. Edit: also, Western Montana.
  5. Martial Arts for exercise

    Sparring will burn about the same number of calories regardless of which art you choose. The conditioning will vary between individual classes and dojos: at the school I attend, bag work is the toughest conditioning, while conditioning for jiu jitsu is just randori. Not that randori isn't...
  6. Bad news strikes: systolic heart murmur (Updated with seriously good news)

    Damn, damn, damn. My sympathy and condolences. Are you sure you have to give up weight training completely? I know you're not a fan of isolation exercises (to say the least) but I'd be surprised if you couldn't be successful in spite of your condition by designing yourself a specific routine...
  7. C vs C++ for Embedded System Programming?

    A fair amount of guys at every school are completely worthless, which is why those of us who are marginally worthy are still employable.
  8. Do you lock your elbows at the top of your bench pressing?

    My elbows hyperextend about 10 degrees with minimal effort. I straighten my arms (maybe 5 degrees bend), but I don't know if that counts as "locked out" for your purposes.
  9. SQL - How to select a table column using a wildcard?

    Mark's right that there is probably a better way to do this. However, you can do: SELECT * FROM information_schema.columns WHERE table_name = 'foo' AND column_name LIKE '%suffix' This will get you a list of the column names. EDIT: That works in MSSQL Server. I don't know if Access will...
  10. Jay Cutler wins 2009 Mr. Olympia!!!

    IMO, this is really a problem: weight training doesn't allow for a level playing field. If you want to compete at the elite levels of bodybuilding, you almost have to lift, or you're at a huge disadvantage versus those that do, even if you're eating the same crazy amounts of protein. This is a...
  11. Jay Cutler wins 2009 Mr. Olympia!!!

    "Accomplishment"? Psh, everyone knows they could look like that if they did steroids. Genetics, nutrition, and training are immaterial. The only reason I don't look like a Kai Green/Frank Zane hybrid is that they do 'roids and I don't. Yep, that's all.
  12. Minding your Is and Ls

    8s and Bs wouldn't be so bad. This JPG had two vertical line characters, one of which was a lowercase L, and the other an uppercase I. Being as obsessive as I am, I took the image into Paint.NET and placed them next to each other. They're exactly identical. 8s and Bs are distinguishable, if not...
  13. brikis98's crossfit journal

    A similar argument can be made in favor of wild, uncultivated food: our fruits are much sugarier than their ancestors due to selective breeding, for instance. Of course, that's much harder to get.
  14. Minding your Is and Ls

    Paypal sent a client of ours a JPEG of his API keys. He just spent six hours of his own time and an hour of mine figuring out that this was the problem. Seriously, there's no reason to do that. Use a serif, monospaced font when the distinction is important.
  15. How to measure biceps?

    I (more respectfully than usually) disagree with measuring cold for most purposes. Boxers (and, I assume, other fight athletes) tend to be measured cold; bodybuilders tend to be measured pumped (they're also pumped on stage). Someone asking about measuring his arms is probably not motivated by...
  16. tips to remain fit in the jobs that need long hours sitting

    Isometrics all the way! Essentially, just sit there and flex various muscles. EDIT: If possible, bike to work. I'm sitting at a desk all day, too (programmer) so I sympathize. Between biking and kickboxing (2x weekly), I stay close enough to "in shape" to be only slightly dissatisfied.
  17. How to measure biceps?

    Pumped, flexed as hard as you can, bent to be as large as possible, at the point of greatest diameter. That way it's unambiguous. Really, you're measuring your upper arms, not your biceps. Your triceps and brachialis are important too.
  18. Displaying a small icon in a ListViewItem's text (.NET 3.5)

    So, I mentioned hosting a WPF control within our Windows Form, and that spiraled out to reworking the whole application in WPF. Now I get to be our WPF expert :)
  19. Displaying a small icon in a ListViewItem's text (.NET 3.5)

    The SmallImageList and LargeImageList properties control the images displayed in the ListView. Which is displayed depends on the View property, which can be set similarly to a Windows folder's view options (thumbnails (corresponding to large icons), icons(corresponding to small icons), list...
  20. Displaying a small icon in a ListViewItem's text (.NET 3.5)

    We have a ListView control which displays thumbnails and filenames from images and videos. The problem is that there's no good visual cue that distinguishes between the images and the videos; you get a ton of thumbnails, and the extensions are there, but don't "pop out enough." Things we've...
  21. What's your favorite muscle?

    Lats. They're visually impressive, full of utility, and it just feels so good to get a good pump going after some hard pull-ups.
  22. Joined an MMA gym.

    Indeed! Between classes is what makes the difference between fast advancement and non-advancement. Now, you can hurt yourself hitting the air too hard, but if you use your off days to practice form and technique rather than speed... perfect.
  23. Joined an MMA gym.

    Mexican wraps are so stretchy, though. It's almost like not having wraps (which is an option).
  24. Joined an MMA gym.

    Gloves serve to provide additional protection, that's for sure. I far prefer being hit in the gloves to being hit in the head(gear), and (as previously mentioned) a proper gym will make sure you work on your defense first. That said, headgear does provide additional protection, and you can't...
  25. Joined an MMA gym.

    Indeed not! And when he starts, he should wear headgear, even if he's been doing it for a period of months or years. You still get hit in the head, and your brain doesn't get conditioned and hardened the way the rest of your body does.
  26. Joined an MMA gym.

    I encourage you to wear headgear when sparring. Most of the local MMA clubs in my area discourage this (in order to make training more realistic), but repeated head trauma, however slight, is a recipe for brain injury.
  27. Help a noob with HTML pls (quick question)

    I have to admit, JMorton6, that I'm amazed you've received this much feedback. What is this email sig for, and what is your job? If this is really and truly the only time you'll ever need to write HTML, I'll gladly PM you the solution you need (and many others here would too); however, that's...
  28. Competitions every 10 week?

    In wrestling, that's for consecutive days of competition (so wrestlers don't stay dehydrated and starved for days in a row). It gets weird because it can "chain" together, so that although no team has been wrestling all week, you can get more leeway: A and B wrestle Monday. B and C wrestle...
  29. Duplicate rows in sql

    This problem will vary based on what exactly constitutes a duplicate. I doubt that firstname lastname is sufficient, since you'll have more than one "John Smith," but just from your example there are other changes between records. In any case, you will need to use a "select" statement with a...
  30. Pure Deadlift Day

    Best day I ever had in the gym was warmup + 10x5x200lb deadlift. Told my friends I deadlifted 10k lbs, just not at the same time. Nobody else thought it was funny.
  31. Is it worth my time to learn HTML?

    I suppose this gives me one less developer to compete with for work.
  32. Martial Art that is best workout?

    There's a difference between high-intensity and 100% intensity. Always training at 100% intensity is a recipe for injury. That said, yes, Krav Maga guys train hard (I suppose the guys I know always seem to be hurt, too. Hmm...)
  33. Martial Art that is best workout?

    I sweat harder and my heart rate gets higher during a good kickboxing bag workout or wrestling practice than in judo, jujitsu, tae kwon do, or karate. It'll vary by dojo (academy, school, whatever) and by instructor, of course. My current workout is Bushidokan Karate, which is very similar to...
  34. Valsalva maneuver - sore glottis or trachea?

    My initial thought was that you'd expect to see bruising elsewhere, or burst blood vessels in the whites of your eyes, cf bench press. But your head is probably higher than the rest of your body during a deadlift or a squat, so it's entirely possible that you'll see bruising elsewhere. If that...
  35. Valsalva maneuver - sore glottis or trachea?

    It can burst capillaries, especially in the head. World-record bench press can result in one scary-looking bloody-faced dude. So there's a lot of pressure there. The question is whether that pressure is applied to the area you're talking about, and causes that type of damage.
  36. Valsalva maneuver - sore glottis or trachea?

    It seems possible, but some quick googling reveals nothing useful (the most legitimate risk seems to be eye pressure, and here's stronglifts on that), and I've never heard anyone mention it. There's a chance you're just getting sick.
  37. Office Dweller Workouts?

    You might also consider one of those exercise balls like Dwight from "The Office."
  38. Office Dweller Workouts?

    Yup! I did Starting Strength. It's a better program than I've ever seen for achieving quick gains in bench, squats, and deadlifts for beginners. Heck, I added to my bench on it, and scary fast (caveat: I had also switched my diet to bulk). But I wasn't as "pretty" (my powerlifter friend's term)...
  39. Office Dweller Workouts?

    Now you're just lacking creativity. Let it go. The joke... it's dead
  40. Office Dweller Workouts?

    There is strong evidence that at least three posters disagree with you. (If this were L&R, now would be a good time to congratulate Deeko on his Stance of Dominance.)
