ne1 heard about this exercise theory ?
I know a lot of americans who use prohormones and a few that use steroids and just sit on the couch building muscle :) I like to think its more down to psychology and determination. At the end of the day nothing is healthy, it has been proven I think that oxygen leads to aging and subsequently death due to the free radicals it produces at a cellular level.

ne1 heard about this exercise theory ?
Thats why I don't do HIIT :) Im currently 160 at about 13% Bodyfat after droppping to 138 at xmas after being quite ill for 8 weeks due to stress and a few other things. I am aiming for 180 with 10% body fat in the next 18 - 24 months. My metabolism means fat drops off me quite easily though. I don't know much about it though, i guess someone like roy is 10^2x more experienced

Eat less calories than you burn and you will loose weight, with HIIT it is a short routine but your body is fooled into bruning calories for upto an hour after you finish.

ne1 heard about this exercise theory ?
yes but it also means their programme will have as much effect health as any other routine, you have to control that 20% with proper intake of food and a regular exercise routine. I will probably have a heart attack by 50, it runs in the family and I have high level of stress heh.

ne1 heard about this exercise theory ?
for maximum hypertrophy slow reps are the way to go, anyway, a lot of that article is crap, cholesteral the number one cause of heart disease is 80% genetic 20% lifestyle thats why a lot of fit people suddenly drop down dead. The main problem with cardivasular activity is that after 60minutes you produce cortisol (stress hormone) this can eat away at muscle and also causes fat belly thin leg syndrome (thats why so many office workers have fat bellies and thin legs - stress) Most people get injured from running because they have incorrect technique and wear ill fitting shoes and socks, warm up incorrectly or run at wrong periods of their lives. When I ran a lot I was growing quickly, (9 inches in 2 years) and I subsequently injured my right knee which still hurts. This article contradicts the previous one but i know it works http://www.musclemedia.com/training/hiit.asp

They will analyse the photo and if you havnt gone through then they won't even get a ticket, they will probably just send an engineer out to check the camera

banning boy racers
I sometimes drive down in the afternoon when the sun is out to kill some time, there are some top motors down there and some cool people but its not my cup of tea anymore. Police usually shut down the roads at around 11 which generally means possibility of overheating in summer grr.

The sea front [southend] has been restructured so it is difficult to "cruise" down there now. I think the thing to stop is the rudeboys with all their modifications and no insurance for them, the people driving without liscenses, the arseholes wheelspinning their novas up and down the gravelpit. The seafront is meant to be a venue for families, instead its full of pissed up 14 year olds and xr2's with exhausts I could fit my head in, cars driving in a circle do not make money for the businesses down there. Once every few months they should close the place down and have an organised cruise if so many people like it.

Matrix Reloaded answers
its all about how the system inperprets the binary. the machine deals with on off impulses we just tell it to take certain values for certain pulses, these impulses are purely at our own discretion. If I build my own basic machine I could tell it that 010010110 = chicken :)

radix set after 6th bit 00000110 = 000001.10 = 1 + 1/2 =1.5

Matrix Reloaded answers
you can do fractions in binary :) I agree with some of that, there are parts that are wrong though heh, its all based on assumptions, only the writers of the film know the truth and it will all be explained in time.
