    Advice for a small laptop/netbook

    I've been looking into this for my brother (similar situation/budget) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834115822 found this while looking for the Acer Aspire 1410 which Anandtech reviewed quite highly as cheap notebook at netbook-esque prices but with good performance. The 1410 has...

    Squat form check please- made videos

    hopefully then by moving to a low-bar squat this won't be as much of an issue, since that will keep my knees back to within a couple inches of my toes?

    Squat form check please- made videos

    Thanks all. Yesterday we changed up and tried the low bar form. We started low weight and went to a working set of 205lb (would have done 225 with linear progress on the high bar) The actual motion of SQUATTING felt good; it was easier to correct the other things ya'll had brought up when...

    Squat form check please- made videos

    Thanks a lot guys! -I'll have to just deal with the mirror for the next two weeks, won't have one at school. I'll try looking down slightly or closing eyelids halfway. -I'll work on pointing the feet out a little more/ not rounding my back. Hopefully I can figure out this low bar position...

    Squat form check please- made videos

    Hi guys, Here are 4 links. First 2 are me, next 2 are my brother. We included the first 2 sets, from different angles. I have been really struggling with the "sticking point" about halfway up, it feels like I lose all momentum but it doesn't look as bad in the video. But I'll keep trying to...

    Hard to say, but based on what just got said and based on the thread title, I wish either Socially Challenged or thepd7's nutritionist had been the OP. ():)

    Fatness leads to inactivity, but inactivity does not lead to fatness.

    Pretty sure Kipper DID say it on page 3. It's not an assumption. Based off that quote, kalrith's point about Jay Cutler seemed valid to me.

    I get similar problems with imbalances... My left pec is noticably bigger than my right one, and same with the ab muscles, even though i'm right handed. let us know if seeing the chiropractor helps.

    A few reasons I am still Proud to be an American!!

    you make it sound like the first interaction between America and Germany in WWII was in 1944 on DDay. Pretty sure if it was Germany and Italy vs. Russia with no American involvement, the Russians would NOT have taken over France after defeating Germany because they wouldn't have defeated...

    Deadlifts. Once a week or twice a week?

    For my Starting Strength workout 3 times a week, I deadlift every OTHER workout. So, that's between 4 and 5 days per deadlift. Not quite twice per week, but a little more frequent than 1x per week.

    high-bar vs low-bar squat *updated with pictures of bar*

    Update: I got some pictures It was hard to know what you meant by below "spine" of scapula. VulgarDisplay's description was the closest to what I seem to be doing, but I don't know if thats high bar or low bar. First picture: what I have done in the past: (bar at base of traps, on back of...

    Any tips on dealing with existential crisis

    Following Christ brought a lot of meaning to my life. Since this isn't in a religion forum, :), consider a few other things, some of which are mentioned above. Get into some new hobbies. One thing I would heavily emphasize is to give back - get involved with things that serve others in your...

    California welfare recipients withdrew $1.8 million at casino ATMs over eight months

    high-bar vs low-bar squat *updated with pictures of bar*

    Hey ya'll - Until this last week I hadn't put much thought into where the bar sat on my back. (doing SS) After reading this article, http://startingstrength.com/articles/squat_rippetoe.pdf I began to wonder if I had been using high bar, when Rippetoe really is saying to use the low bar. I...

    Squats, deads, bench

    Yeah, try deadlifting 1 set of 5 every other workout. Try increasing by 20lb each time until it either gets very difficult or until you get to 170-175lbs. Then go up by 10lb each time. I guess for starting out that weight is fine, but theoretically you can deadlift a lot more than you can...

    How much do you weigh and how many pull ups can you do?

    185lb, 3 sets of 8 with sideways grip (palms facing each other) not sure if those are the right type of chins/pullups to do but they seem to have a nice balance between working my back and my arms. Chinups go straight to the biceps and pullups seem to be more back/shoulders, I combine the two.

    Squats, deads, bench

    Try the Press (also called overhead press) Alternate doing that with doing Bench Press This is outlined well in the Starting Strength program Also something is probably probably wrong with your deadlift. I'm in the same squat range as you, did 180 monday and 185 yesterday. Squatting makes my...

    jlee's GOMAD thread - 8lbs in 11 days, photo update 7-3-10

    at least for me, if you go within 1 chinup of failure on the first set (you'll know what that point is haha), the next sets are usually pretty bad even if you rest for 5+ minutes. it's like everything is already fatigued.

    S.C. poised to elect black GOP Congressman

    I'm surprised this fact is even considered that newsworthy... As a white republican, I wouldn't think twice about voting for a black congressperson. Unless they happened to be a progressive or liberal like many, but then that would have nothing to do with skin color and everything to do with...

    Upcoming Intel Price-Cuts

    Is this E6700 different from the Conroe E6700 from a couple years back? My dad's computer has an old E6300 (1.86GHz I belive), if these new one's are good/compatible, I wouldn't mind dropping one of these in his socket for a little speed bump. Would that work?

    jlee's GOMAD thread - 8lbs in 11 days, photo update 7-3-10

    Nice work man...definitely smart for you to start the weight pretty easy so you can focus on form first. I've been doing SS for 1 month this coming Wednesday...at this point i'm barely able to get my 5 reps on everything. (squat 180, bench 130, deadlift 195) :\ However it's been pretty easy...

    Starting Strength-Substituting Bent Rows for Power Cleans?

    well, ya'll have inspired me to attempt learning it again. i'm still debating on whether to skip chinups and do it now, or wait until school starts in august. the main reasons for waiting: - i'm bad at chinups and have been improving at them - lots of good lifters at school that could help...

    Starting Strength-Substituting Bent Rows for Power Cleans?

    I tried power cleans and just couldn't get the form down without legit help, so I tried the rows and frankly it sucked. didn't feel like they were helping much. so now i'm doing chinups, 3x8, weighted as needed, it's a good exercise.

    on a SS bulk... skinny-fat?

    thanks for the replies. you guys were on track with them... basically I'm not planning to get much bigger in the next month or two. 5-10 pounds is fine, I'll still look skinny, that's okay as long as the "beginning gains" in strength are happening. I'm not quite sure if what I'm about to...

    on a SS bulk... skinny-fat?

    Long-ish background first: Tried SS last fall for a few months, saw some nice results. I went from 165 to 180 (at 6'4, age 20) The 165 was like 10lbs lower than usual though, because I was coming off surgery and inactivity. Anyway, I started feeling more confident about the squat, deadlift...

    Buying a new car with cash

    one potential reason for all the deals available on financing right now is simply the low interest rates. because of those, paying cash might be a good idea. 1. car companies don't have as much profit while financing their cars 2. financing the car and investing in a CD or money market has an...

    12 Weeks to Put on Some Weight

    Yea just go with the milk. Don't try to do gallon-per-day right from the beginning. Have a full glass with each meal for a day or two, then jump to 2 glasses with each meal. Then start working in more throughout the day. GOMAD is great for reasons you already mentioned - you are trying to eat...

    How do I get in shape if I'm fairly thin to begin with?

    Well the OP did mention trying to avoid spending money if possible. While the Starting Strength or Stronglifts 5v5 would be very effective...at this point I'd contend that almost anything could help! Beev You may want to throw in something for cardio fitness since it seems that you don't move...
