    losing motivation

    well this always happens to me, 3 months of dedication and now its started to get screwed up. with exams and everything i was not gettin much sleep so i couldnt work out, and this past week ive not worked out at all except chest, and my eating hasnt been great, you think this is going to have a bad effect on whatever i actually gained?

    1 week....nope. If you have alot going on this week or the next couple of weeks, try and keep your diet in check and maybe 3 times a week in the gym. Once your schedule calms down hit hard again. Good luck.

    if you're losing motivation to work out then you're obviously working out for the wrong reasons. working out should be for yourself so you'll feel good about yourself, not to get pussy.

    Hey Domestic....before you start jumping on the poor guy, did you read his post. Some peoples schedules get crazy time form time and it's hard to get to the gym. I've been there before and understand where he's coming from, so try "reading" what he said before making comments like that. Thanks.

    man fuck you both. he didn't say shit about not having the time to get to the gym... he just says that he hasn't worked out and didn't get much sleep and blah blah.

    so next time, both you fuckers try "reading" what he posts instead of talking shit to me.

    First off...do you listen to music while you are working out? I don't mean what they are playing in the gym either. One of the best ways I've found that helps motivation is being able to listen to certain songs that really get you fired up while you are working out! I have an MP3 player and I frequently change up the songs and I've found it really makes a big difference. Whether it's Limp Bizkit or Metallica - whatever gets your juices flowing can really push you through a workout!

    Dumbestic whats wrong you cant read......i think he means that with exams and everyhting it was drawing alot of energy out of him and he had a lack of sleep most likely b/c he was studying (which i can relate) ........and even though he wasnt gonna be working out would it affect his gains..............so chill out man and read the thread a little better and give the man a little slack........how old are you 12



    DrJay is right with the music i bought an MP3 player it really gets me pumped with no distractions

    In the first line of his post. To be 19 years old you act more like a 12 year old. Not really sure what your problem is but your posts are pretty ignorant.

    You better recognize brain, this guy is 19 years old, 234lbs@6'2", 11%BF,
    and has been training for a whole 9 months. Oh yea, and he lifts over 300 pound according to one of his posts, not sure on what exercise but its over 300 pounds. He is a stud.

    LOL, sarcasim is my friend

    Man, Domestic Violence if you get anymore tore up by the locals here at AR there be nothing left of you!!! Relax and just chill-out......no need to lock horns with people that can help you achieve a personal goals. We are all cool customers here.......try not to make enemies so early in the program.

    Anyhow, the issue at hand here is motivation.........Now if you mentioned finals........ That takes priority over the workouts (you spent good money on school fees dont waste them!). You just need to get your ass back in the door brotha! It is hard to get back working out but after the first week back things will return to normal.
    Oh, and what Dr.Jay said about the MP3 player......its totally true! Helps a whole lot.

    Peace

    Your right solidj55 he might even tell his mom on me ......yeah he lifts 300 lbs every time he gets his fat butt out of bed and judging from his reading skills i would say he is gonna spend a couple more years in high school too

    plus how do i know thats really you in the pic....i read a post you submitted earlier and it said you liked to jerk off and you wouldnt have to do that if you had a woman and if you look like the guy in the pic i dont think you would have problem finding a woman....unless they dump you b/c they find out their I.Q. is more than triple yours........and you say "and uh" in between each word...

    actually bro - i'm smarter then what you give me credit for. i would much rather goof off and have fun then to act all smart & shit. my SAT scores speak for themselves. and btw, i'm 18 - not 19. and if you don't think thats me.. PM me on Yahoo Messenger sometime and i'll get on webcam. i have 1000018374908712348907 pics also.

    and the fat jokes, i don't take kindly too cuz i use to be fat. when i was 15 i was 250lbs and i was pressing 185lbs. thats pretty much when i started working out. just recently is when i started taking it serious and commiting myself to it. now i'm 234lbs and i press 375lbs max.

    and about the woman thing - yea, i've had my share of pussy but i ain't interested in that. i want alittle more from a girl then just her ass cuz that shit ain't hard to get at all. and plus, i just got out of a relationship and i'm not interested in fucking another girl or being with another girl so masturbation works fine for me now. =)

    This needs to stop now. Flaming won't be tolerated on this board by anyone.

    HiFi,
    I wouldn't stress over it. I usually take a month off every year to recharge. Big Texan had the right idea on this one.

    Rickson domestic is a punk and he needs to learn respect not that he will learn it here but I think he needs to know that as long as he is a member around here you dont tell Senior members to shut the fuk up when they are giveing good advice or anybody for that matter .

    DUMESTIC has some seriouse Issues if he thinks that a dumbass PIC of him with a gun will intimidate people here. Sorry, you are in the wrong board and the more you try to be stupid with us the more you are going to get labled by the more seroiuse members of AR! Go try to fit in the "I am a over-masterbating Teenager with issues" board.
    GET OUT OF HERE!

    Am I the only one who saw what Rickson wote? - go back and read his post and then make sure everyone does that - that goes for everyone! - and get back to the topic at hand

    Domestic - might want to stick to pics with a BB theme - sounds like you have a right to be proud of what you have accomplished - dont screw up what respect you should earn around here by "I wanna be a punk thugz, look at my gun" pics - you arent the only one here with an arsenal and the willingness to use it - after all, we arent all Canadians on this board

    Yeah....stupid Canadians...they think they're all high and mighty because of there strict gun control laws and the fact that they're good at hockey and geography. There's too many friggin Canuks on this board if you ask me

    And guys, back off of Domestic, he may have snapped a little but he's still new and getting a feel for the board. If you read his threads you will also see that he nutted up and apologized "anyways, i apologize bout that cuz i didn't see the "exam" thing in there or else i wouldn't have commented." So lets all be friends.

    anyway I heard that the majority of 17 inch TFT screens are not bullet proof.
