Never been a fan of the rowing machine, but I might give it a try just to spice things up a bit. Thanks for the tip!

What is your cardio routine? If it's something consistent, you might want to switch it up a bit. I used the elliptical machine for years and at first, it helped shed some fat, but my body got used to it and eventually all I could do was maintain. Lately, I've started taking the cardio...

No drugs here. I do enjoy a beer every now and again, but I've cut back severely over the last couple of years. You get tired of spending hours in the gym the entire week only to ruin any chance of progress in a couple of hours at the bar. Still, I don't abstain entirely and it's going to be...

Assuming you're talking about alcohol?

Back of the neck and shoulders, yes.

Not yet, but I'm thinking about snagging one on e-bay.

Yeah, there are straps you can get that will put the bulk of the pressure on your wrists and arms instead of your hands. I've thought about getting some.

After seeing this line at San Diego, I had to start picking these up... got my first one today...

My hands give out on shrugs before anything else as well.

I work them into my routine every now and again. They're not bad. Everything helps from the perspective that it's good to change up the exercises you use for different muscle groups. Much like cardio, your body can become used to weight exercises if you do the same ones repetitively. Variety...

I suppose I should explain that I was not a healthy 205. I'm only 5'8 and I'm working on my body fat percentage right now. Once the Fall & Winter roll around, I'll fo more to increase my mass (in a good way).

I have a friend whose wife is using P90x and she's doing very well with it. I might have to give it a look for home too. I have a membership to two different gyms (one at work and one near home), but the only equipment I have at the house is for boxing/MMA workouts. Oh, and I'm down to 174...

I have a somewhat, but not exactly, similar issue in that I have a severe peanut allergy which makes it hard to find protein bars and such that I can take as meal replacements. Here are some links to articles that might help you get some answers...

Hey guys... new to the boards, but an avid fan of the gym. I'm going to go back and read the posts, but thought I'd introduce myself for the time being. Look forward to reading and posting more here in the future. Oh, and just for the topic's sake, I recently purchased some MSM (for joint...

I know these came out about a month ago, but I'm new here so I thought I'd post my pic anyway... it's my latest Sideshow piece!

I was fortunate enough to get in as a guest of a friend and I'm sure glad I did! It was my first trip to the SDCC and the Freaks party was definitely one of the highlights!! I'm now a full-fledged (albeit new) board member and I'm already looking forward to next year! Thanks a TON Dave and...
