The Beatles - Get Back

At least she's hot.

My flat mate made some real good stuff tonight, it's not overly cheesy, but has lots of breadcrumbs on top, so it's really crunchy.

Ask a guy who knows a bit about Big Macs anything!

I was gonna say.. those look super comfortable. Oh, they are.

Jimmy, your lack of faith... :shame: You know we have some great escape artists in our side.

Got me some mother [bleep]ing Jersey Caramels the other day, so good.

Every single one of your pictures is identical...you're almost as bad as Da_latios back in the day :P I just have a camera on my Mac, so I use it =D Will probably post some 'different' pictures today. Nudes?

We get most of our stuff from Aussie anyway... I think we have "Easy Mac", I remember the ad for it cos it was Australian. Some kid sneaks into his girlfriends house, not to see her but to use her microwave...

Never seen it before...

Box? since when did you make it in a box? Funnily, I'm only posting here cos my flatmate said he was making Macaroni & Cheese for tea tonight...

RHCP - Walkabout

Just got a pair of these, for $136 NZD, but replaced the laces with white ones from my old shoes. [bleep]ing comfortable.

Yeah, I really like ti too. What lens are you using?

Yeah that bike is looking awesome!

Haha, it's true. You are the new Da_latios!

Nz just thrased India, great captain's knock from Taylor and Tuffey was outstanding too.

Nets...as in cricket nets Adrenal?

Yeah, same. In saying that, I haven't been to the dentist for like two years.

I would still focus more on the minutes than the miles. I think 1.5 miles is plenty of distance to have an effective HIIT session with, especially for someone in poor health. I mean yeah, once you get into better shape, your "lows" are gonna be at the pace of like a 6-7 minute mile and your "sprints" are gonna be at like a 5 minute mile...so a 30 minute session will give you 4+ miles. But for someone who might be like at a speed-walking pace in their "lows" they just aren't gonna cover the same mileage. Bottom line is that smart cardio focuses on your state of body and your heart rate. If I walked into the gym and said "Yup imma run 4 miles today" sometimes I would get a good training session in, sometimes I wouldnt. You need to just focus on interval technique and learning what your body is doing. Miles and minutes are both horrible goals for a cardio session (again, unless you are an athlete who is focused on performance. but for someone looking for weight loss, miles and minutes tell you nothing about how much you achieved towards your goal of losing weight) Oh yeah, true, I guess I just assummed he'd be going at a decent rate which pushes his heart rate up around 70%

I guess we have jocks and nerds etc. At my school we had the music kids, emos, trashy girls...

Oh. I think it may have something to do with Americans being "obsessed" with white teeth. I don't think the rest of the world goes to the same lengths in teeth whitening.

I'm not sure if I understand all these terms, or what I fit into so I'm gonna ask for some help. I'm sort of sporty, I playa nd watch quite a lot, but without being a jock. I go to uni, and I'm reasonably intelligent, but I'm not a nerd. I don't exactly study a lot, or play many video games anymore. Not arty at all, and I'm not hipster or whatever (skinny jeans, long beanie, giant, baggy t shirt etc). I guess NZers have their own categories.

I don't get it...what's wrong with their teeth?

Yeah, I thought that was pretty good, not sure how accurate that info on the increased metabolism after heavy lifting is. I can imagine it varies hugely, from person to person, and depending on the effort they put in. What Bloodstain posted said that HIIT was better for weight loss than long duration, steady state cardio. Long duration cardio is only beneficial to those looking to improve heart and lung function, lower their blood pressure, and other "health" benefits. High intesnity burst cardio is for weight loss. It is a well known fact that exercising for a long time will increase the levels of cortisol in your bloodstream. Cortisol greatly hinders fat loss. Also, exercising for long periods of time puts a bigger stress on your immune and edocrine system. Not to mention....it just takes more time. With a high intensity interval session, you can accomplish more in 15-30 minutes than you could in a 1 hr or longer jog. The human body just isnt designed to run for that long. We needed to run after prey, and run away from prey. Nobody's body is built for doing that type of activity and it really just is unnecessary stress. I mean, its one thing if you are looking to become a marathon runner/athlete, but if you just want to lose weight and/or build muscle, then long duration steady-state cardio simply is not for you. It is harder on the joints, it is more boring, it is harder on your various vital systems, and it just plain takes longer to get the same results you would with HIIT. I think the whole point is, he could do with upping his distance from his 1.5 miles or whatever to something more like 3-4, which really isn't much more, and shouldn't be much longer than half an hour.
