LS, for instance, has too much. Makes him look goonish and clearly compensating for a tiny hindu pecker."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

But there is a massive difference between carrying an extra 20lbs of muscle with symmetry and the guys that win bodybuilding contests.www.my-piano.blogspotComment

There's also a massive difference between people who do cardio to stay in shape and those looking for a marathon runner's build."The French caused the war [Persian Gulf war, 1991]" - Ned

Most people go to the gym to lose weight, they could care less about gaining mass of any kind.
And I think the normal progression would be to lose the extra pounds, and then try and put some good extra ones on. Though people underestimate how much fat you can lose lifting.
The weight room is also intimidating for people who haven't used it before. There aren't any marathon winners using the treadmill, there are some pretty buff dudes in the weight room."The DPRK is still in a state of war with the U.S. It's called a black out." - Che explaining why orbital nightime pictures of NK show few lights.

If you're looking to lose fat, you've got to incorporate resistance. If you're looking to lose weight (fat and muscle), then go ahead and do all the cardio you want, but the muscle you lose will slow your metabolism.www.my-piano.blogspotComment

That's why i go. Besides, i'm there @ lunch time, so i only have time for cardio. That's what gives the best return for the time i'm there.Originally posted by Zkribbler

Most people on the treadmill I see don't have much muscle to lose that way. When I gained pounds on deployment I quickly lost the weight by running, and then a month in the weight room and I had whatever muscle I lost running back.If you're looking to lose fat, you've got to incorporate resistance.
