No but if you drink sugar water (most soda pop is this, with carbonation) while you exercise. Then later when you can digest again some salty snack. You're golden.

Give or take, pretty much.

When I was a student and training pretty hard for track we used to drink Raro (you guys call it tang I believe, powdered fruit juice that is cheap as chips) and add a little salt to it.

Saxitoxin is a deadly shellfish poison, not to be confused with artificial sweetner.

I have no problem with people wanting to be fit and whatnot but I DO NOT GIVE A FUCKING SHIT. STOP POSTING PICTURES OF YOURSELF FLEXING OR TALK ABOUT YOUR DAILY GYM EXPERIENCE. ITS ANNOYINGLY OBSESSIVE

Man my head would explode with lolz if you turned out to be a powerlifter.

Nah powerlifters are a specific type of fuckwad (ideal thread to discuss this...). They are likely the type who post about their lifts on facey etc (along with the weight loss tossers and a myriad of other wankers - one of whiich I probably am... i posted a about rowing occasionally... but at least thats competitive).

Doing weights is fine (in fact pretty much mandatory if you want to be good at most types of sports), but those morons who live just to lift heavy weights, to me, are fucktardely stupid. My favourites are the guys who can bench like 300 lbs but have tiny little twig legs.

Yeah I hate those guys. I was at this party once and there was this obnoxious guy named Tiny (he was like 5'1" but absurdly bulky) who told me prolly 7-8 times throughout the night that he could bench over 500lbs. Drunken power lifters bragging about how much they bench gets annoying after a while.

Yer 500 lbs is pretty amazing, depending on how big this little fucker is thatd be close to pushing a world record for his weight (you would struggle to be much above 200 odd pounds at 5'1).

100% sure he'd also be a total tosser, but thats beside the point.

haha. I'm sure he was exaggerating, although he certainly looked capable of lifting quite a bit. He ended up getting kicked out of the party for being a douche.

I hate how nobody makes jackets that fit me. Buncha short-armed fatties out there.

I hate how nobody goes to tailors who make custom jackets for long-armed lankies out there.
