I know of a small gym near me that's technically open 24/7, the owner gives you the keys so you can come in anytime, you just have to lockup if you leave and nobody else is there. He should do what all the cool Redditors are doing these days: sleep in his Volt in the company parking lot. monster on a stick fucked around with this message at 19:50 on Sep 16, 2016 |

It sounds like he is an amateur boxer or MMA. Probably lives at the tiny gross gym where he trains. The 400 a month he makes is probably from the amateur fights.

I always hear "preworkout" in the context of a supplement that is mostly caffeine and sugar and costs $1-2 per serving, so that seems... reasonable. Like, stupid, but reasonable for what it is (a dumb thing)

Both of the last posts are correct. Also, preworkouts are an awesome wasteful product. Better off just having a cup of coffee, but some of those recipes with the meth in them were 5/5, would tweak again.

It really depends. Some of them are just a bunch of different supplements, like 30 of them, all at 1/30 of the normal dosage. And since the vast majority haven't been tested, 2/3 or more probably don't do anything. Pretty much the only known to work supplements are illegal because they are dangerous, BCAAs, protein, or caffeine.

Lol, I was actually thinking about DNP after I posted that. I took a diet and exercise class in college when I needed easy credits. One online discussion, I did a write-up on it, and everyone's reaction was pretty much  . Even the teacher hadn't heard of it. I think my exact words were that if you dose yourself incorrectly, your body boils itself to death from the inside.

DoubleT2172 posted:Correct. Also some people get a reaction and break out in all over hives too. That's a standard allergic reaction. Find a protein, some person somewhere has had that reaction to it. E: screw both of the dipshits who got married without a care in the world for practical matters such as marital finances. She either lied or doesn't think divorce is an option, and he's a loving idiot: 1. Divorce is an option; if your new spouse discloses something this significant after you get married, it's a GOOD option 2. Adults can talk about their finances. If you're thinking about marriage but haven't had a finances talk, at least one of you is either a complete moron or is dishonest. 3. Why immediately spend $17k if he wasn't comfortable spending it? Was a couple weeks to learn, oh, i dunno, the basics of how credit ratings work (cancel the paid off cards and shred the one active one, really? That's his loving solution?) really going to make it or break it on the debt situation? Good for him for having some savings, but bad for him that he would spend 17k in a heartbeat without apparently giving any thought to the consequences of spending it. 4. I understand and agree with the decision to replenish savings. However, he frames it not that way, but as her paying him back. Unless they're in a community property state, he doesn't inherit her debts, and her credit only becomes a factor for future shared accounts and that mortgage down the road. Obviously it will affect household finances since things with her name on them will cost more, but he wouldn't have been on the hook for a dime of hers. 5. Now he can't even divorce her because he can't part with that savings, and if they split he won't see another dime because he's a loving idiot. I hate both of these people and have determined they deserve each other. I predict they'll get pregnant before they realize that a hospital birth costs money, and he'll be back in here like "how could i have possibly known my wife wanted children, if only there were some way to find out????"

Pretty bad with life. Yes, it goes for vitamins as well. That trash isn't regulated. There is literally no one ensuring the active ingredient is present, the dose is as stated, and that it doesn't contain adulterants.

I'm not looking for retrospective advice on what I "should have done." I know. I get it.

I understand it's my fault but why aren't there 3-day grace periods I've heard so much about that don't actually exist? That seems pretty reasonable to me, especially in a situation like this where I haven't even driven the car except home and back to the dealer.
