Think outside the box. Buy the new one, keep the old one untill you find a buyer.

O_O

Impulse purchase.... You are getting sleepy, slowly sinking deep into the seat of a german 4 door rocketship....

I'll bit 2.5K and you can have small unmarked bills or a cashiers check in a few hours.

Look. SSA is here for you man.

Live the dream, buy the M!

I'll even throw in a case of beer. Chilled even.

You like coors light right?

2.6k, case of beer, couple of rack amps, and a '96 Seville with new front struts. I can be there in 8hrs. :P

That was my original intent, but it made it about a week in the snow and I felt like crap. With a newer one that is leased though I won't give a shit.

Kansas has a black hole in it. He can't live up to the 8 hour promise. :D

I'll add to my offer another hundo matching the offer from R2, I'll upgrade the beer to bottles of your choice and make you a mixed tape for the new M.

It's the thought that counts.

Have to part with the M5 before I can buy one.

Sell the M5 buy a new one and keep your Username...... :fing34:

I don't like fast food.*

In general I think it sucks. Now when being clean on a diet... Damn it looks good.

*I do like taco bell for some reason. Cheesey gordita chruns with chicken and extra baja sauce is like ambrosia.

For the most part Taco Bell Isn't too bad for you in terms of fast food options, besides high sodium content it is probably the best you'll find in terms of fast food.

:drink40:

It's been about 2 months and i'm still waiting to go to basic for the air force, do you guys know how long it typically takes to go?

:puzzled:

Sean, any chance you can ship the LPG's quick ? I just ordered a pair of SLS8's, Fountek FR89's and TB W3's for a friend's install and all we need are teh LPG's :)

If I hadn't already sold them I could. Sorry.

Check out your contract. It has a ship date on it. IF you cannot find it go see your recruiter again.

My commanding officer doesn't even know yet, which is odd. He said he hasn't gotten the schedule yet.

dem beats, was it you who suggested ~1g protein per pound of body weight for lifting? you sure that's right? based on what I saw at the store that equates to a ~1,200 calorie 64 ounce shake :peepwall:

I've always heard that much protein...

I've heard that much as well, but I've also read that .6 to .9x body weight in protein is good enough also. Though I'm really not sure how much I intake. Let's see.

Cereal- 5g

16 oz. milk in the cereal- 16g

hard boiled egg- 6g

1/4 lb deli meat in lunch sandwich- ~22g

cheese on sandwich- 5g

Fruit & nut bar- 8g

protein shake w. milk- 30g

supper meat- ~40g

miscellaneous protein in other supper ingredients- 5g

That gets me to about 137g. I weigh 190, so that's a multiple of 0.72. Not bad. Could probably get a bit more.

Let me preface everything that I say here is that it's under the assumption that someone is a pretty active person who does a moderate amount of resistance training. By that I'm saying you lift-to-failure(or extremely cose) your muscles with concentric and eccentric resistance several times a week.

Well, I say 1 gram per pound of "desired" body weight is the optimal starting point. so if you want to be 200 lbs, then 200 grams of protein per day. That would only be 800 kcal. Then thing is unless you're staving yourself from carbs to some degree the protein will be used for muscle building and maintenance. So.... the kcal don't really equate to energy or actual kcal the way you would normally count them. If you want to be 250 then 250 grams of protein or 1000 kcal. Again though, it's not like it will be burned for energy unless you put yourself into a a state where you're body needs it through some form of specific starvation.

Best bet is to consume no more than 50 grams of protein in one sitting, and then wait ~2.5 hours to eat more. So if you're eating to be 250 then I would suggest 6 meals of 41.xxx grams spaced evenly over the day.

Lost of guys I know need less, most guys I have helped are at 1 gram or more. I also don't know too many guys who could be 250 pounds lean.

Just make sure you drink lots of water.

You'd have to be fairly tall or fairly bulky for 250 lean; I'm 6'0" 243 (no, that is not bulk, unfortunately; BF%++) and I'm barely fitting into my 36 pants and XL t-shirts :lol:

Right now I've just started mixing a pint of milk with two scoops of protein powder...stuff...following each lifting session, ~65g all told. I only lift 3 times a week so I probably won't see much in the way of results for a while...we'll see

Eh 5'10 210 and 20% BF...........38 jeans and xl shirts (when I left AZ)............Goal is to be back down around 33" jeans and about 10% bf or so when I redeploy. I think with good diet, exercise and sleep I can do it.

Plus I walk damn near everywhere, and 110* or higher in long sleeves, pants, boos and t-shirt is no joke.

Also, if you really, REALLY wanna sweat, go take a shit at about 2 pm in a porta shitter in this heat. Talk about sweat ur fuckin ass off. Feels like u just got done showering.

Agreed done that a couple of times with the job. On new construction sites, u should see all the trash that is written on those prot a can walls

Lemme put it this way.............Took a shit around 3 pm today. Was in there for under 10 minutes............Walked out looking like I just got out of the shower. By this I mean face DRENCHED, hair SOAKED, shirt COMPLETELY soaked through. So yea its not fun. Especially when todays the high was 125*

Okay you went to MEPS 2 months ago, and have been doing DEP shit since then. You need to call your RECRUITER and ask him/her. The CO wont know and honestly wont give a flying fuck. Its not his job. Your RECRUITER is responsible for ensuring you know when to be back at MEPS and to get you there. There really isnt a whole lot more to it man.
