You want energy? Two words:
Vitamin. B.
That's the main ingredient of products like 5 Hour Energy and Worx. It works on me sometimes, but not always.
Here's a video on what not to do

Watch it, memorize it and then never repeat anything similar to this type of form in the gym ever again. Inb4 that guy's in a wheelchair.
God, that made my back and shoulders hurt just watching it.Quote:

People also used to perform physical activities 8-10 hours a day.Quote:

You honestly wouldn't believe how hard i'm laughing right now

If this was happening close to home i'd go there everyday with by buds and we'd bet on which bitch would break their spine first.
Are the women doing more weight than the men? I kept expecting one of them to drop the bar on her head.
Without even reading the description I knew they were from Crossfit.
What do you mean?
Fuck that shit, I'd definitely drop that shit and break my wrists in the process.
The last motion to get the weight above their heads is interesting. I've done thrusters with kettle bells, but never with a barbell. Though these guys seem to think the idea behind a thruster is to fall faster than the gravity of the barbell, allowing yourself to move underneath it, apparently?
It's so... graceful... like a swan with a neck brace.
Probably because crossfit has a long history of shit form and injuries.Quote:

Hmm.. k
By the way guys, how do you tell if you're having trouble completing an exercise because you're lacking energy vs muscular strength?
I'm still trying to work out what my target intake should be. 4000KJ, 5000KJ or 6000KJ.
It's only been day two.. but I'm surprisingly hungry. (Surprisingly because I thought the bulk would ease the hunger.. maybe I'll eat more veges instead..)
Ok first off... KJ? Seriously? Speak in calories or i ain't helping you.
In paper your bulking diet should look something like this
Calories: 16-18x bodyweight (in lbs)
Protein: 1+ grams per lb. bodyweight
I'll be the first to admit i don't count calories though, i just did my research on food that's high on carbs or protein and improvised around it. You should never be hungry though, if anything you should be nauseatingly full at first.
Protip, have a banana and a coffee 20-10 min before your workout and you'll have all the energy you could possibly want.
On another note
Challenge fucking completed :DQuote:

I got a negative value for your calorie calculation. And it's a weight loss diet before it's a bulking diet. I'm essentially eating tuna and vegetables.
Really? What's your bf%? You don't sound fat :O
