Fitness thread: All topics related to personal health and wellness
FAPTurbo replied to Suaviloquent's topic in The Lounge
Actual suggestion: Eat less and drink more water, fatty. I used to be a size 32 waist but became a 34, at 220 and 230 lbs respectively. My waist ballooned because my job changed, and I continued eating the same amount of food, even when I stopped working out rigorously. It's one of those things that's hard to correct but discipline, water and sometimes sugarless gum help. I carry Mio in my briefcase in case water gets boring, and when I go to Jared's, I'll often order a roast beef off the kids menu because the meal is satisfying enough and the accompanying jokes are fresher than Subway's veggies. These have helped considerably. Another suggestion: Yoga. I live in Vancouver, yogappropriation central, where libertarian pseudo-progressive white people took spiritual Indian stretching and turned it into a billion dollar industry on the backs of basic white girls. But the standard fare is useful for flexibility and relaxation. Depending on location, you can hit up a a couple classes for cheap, enjoy the sights via the see-through Lululemon pants and then do the exercises at home where nobody will have to know you're doing yoga. Bonus suggestion: Eat oatmeal. It's filling as hell and you can stir in egg white or protein powder. Get stuff that can be microwaved, and if you can get something that has dried blueberries and goji berries, even better. MEATHEAD GET SWOLE DO U EVEN LIFT BRA?! LET'S GO SON suggestion: Do not purchase pre-workout supplements or be tempted to. They're often too low dosed, have fillers and over-priced. If you want some perk, make your own for cheap: source 'Creapure'-type creatine from a bulk supplier, as well as Beta-Alanine and caffeine pills. Mix a scoop of creatine, 2 grams BA into 12 oz of water and pop the pill. Zen out for a half hour and prep for workout. You'll start feeling antsy or bouncy from the BA and then you're ready to either mass-murder people or have a fulfilling workout. Whichever helps you accomplish your goals! -

My grandkids will carry my folded, doughy rolls and if they don't, Grampy Fappy will eat them. -

The Vulcan S is built to be easily customized by the dealer to fit most people. It's also a really approachable bike, with good handling that belies the cruiser appearance somewhat and a linear powerband. My only hangup with Kawasaki is I've always felt the fit/finish and materials of their cruisers weren't as good as Honda or Yamaha. But there's likely some bias in there as well.

I'd vote a Honda CB500X. They're very good value, have a comfortable seating position that will accommodate two people, are wonderfully usable in the city or out of town, and importantly, have a decent front fairing. Also, Honda's reliability is peerless. The fairing is important because when you're riding with your friend, you won't become tired from facing the wind head-on. And if you're caught in the rain, you'll have some protection too. It's altogether a safe choice. The CB500X's suspension travel also means you can navigate potholed roads with a little more confidence. Your friend's bike is fast, but unless you're racing, it's not important. I imagine he'll want to flick around curves and corners and speed is less of a factor then. The Honda's powerband and geometry would help you stay confident around the corners, and you'd likely be able to keep up pretty well too.

Because RAM wins in appearance, which trades higher in suburbia than tradesman fundamentals such as reliability. Since Twister, RAM's had the 'edge,' featuring bulbous design and jutting grilles. Then the 02 RAM's appeared and Dodge traded on equal parts commercial Aerosmith'esque boomer machismo, and the mid-2000's hip-hop scene. Few brands could merge the 18 - 25, 25 - 34 and 34 - 55 gaps so effortlessly and RAM still reaps the residual rewards today.
