    Joe Rogain Vs A Random Vegan with Gains...

    It's true, as I don't think Nate would be lying about stuff like that. Also you've been arguing about vegan diet, not a vegetarian diet. You also brought up how cholesterol is bad, and we all know egg yolks are full of it. Sure, vegan diet is perfectly good, provided you can get all the...

    Joe Rogain Vs A Random Vegan with Gains...

    Not that I'm against vegan stuff, but Nate isn't exactly a vegan. He eats eggs and cheese, and goes vegan only during the fight camps.

    good exercises for forearm conditioning

    Farmer walks, hanging from a bar, pinching 2-3 small plates together, wrist rolls for high repetitions. All great.

    is one set enough?

    Maybe 1 set of the same exercise every day, sort of like Bulgarian light? Anyway, why would you just do 1 set? If you have time constraints, do super sets and giant sets, or add rest-pause training (someone mentioned 20rep squats), or do circuits. Many ways to skin a cat. Otherwise find a...

    Do you all agree McGregor has been the most influential fighter in MMA history ??

    Influential towards whom? New kids and common folk watching this sport? I might agree with that. Most influential in terms of fight style, technique, and other sport specific stuff, especially regarding other fighters? I don't agree. He definitely is the most popular one though.

    Helping my father

    I think making him just walk for a couple of weeks first should do plenty, along with clearing up his diet. His heart is probably not ready for bw squats and stuff like that yet, especially not 4-5 sets, being so overweight. Just make him a little routine which consists of mostly low impact, low...

    Is Conor diet a "paleo" type of diet? That might explain the fatigue.

    Hell, I'd say swimming long distance and sprints sounds more logical for fighter's cardio than running.

    UFC is dying. People are even writing about it

    That's because they made a circus out of a sport. Everyone is cherry picking their fights, rankings don't mean shit anymore (a 1-2 fighter fighting for a title?), so people are just fed up with shit.

    Can't seem to do squat and deadlift

    That's okay, but you also need to pay attention if your foot arch collapses as you do your reps. If it does, there's your problem.

    Can't seem to do squat and deadlift

    Do you suffer from flat feet problem? That can mess up your knee tracking quite a bit, so definitely check that. Also what shoes are you using while squatting/deadlifting? If you are using running shoes, that can be a problem too, so either buy some flat shoes or do your exercises bare footed if...

    Is it or is it not possible to build a good mass of muscle with body weight exercise?

    Gymnasts also do a lot of weight training on top of their skill training, and while skill training contributes to their mass, so does weight training. You can find pics of old gymnasts from 60s and 70s where they were only sticking with skill work and bw, and they are considerably smaller than...

    Type of weigh training for weighloss

    Contrary to bro science, all of those rep ranges will give you muscle growth at pretty much similar rate, so from a muscle building perspective it doesn't exactly matter which one you are going to use. However if you are looking for weight loss, I'd stick with higher rep ranges as those sets...

    I can't lift heavyweight, is there anyway to still develop strength and build muscle?

    You can definitely get muscle using lighter weights, as long as you do enough sets that will keep you in a hypertrophy range. Many people make a mistake of doing too few sets to com0ensate for the number of reps done, but that's not how it works. You can find studies that prove there's pretty...

    Is it possible to gain strength with dumbbells?

    Dude, check Infinite Intensity by Ross Enamait. I'd say it's the best damn book on conditioning and strength training for combat athletes (he is a boxing trainer) on the market. Check his site and forum. Also has a youtube, tho he hasn't been active there for quite a while. In Infinite...

    Uneven abs?

    ^Or in other words, if you want even abs, you need to jerk off using both hands to the same degree. Hmm?

    New Pic Leaked from Conor McGregor vs Paulie Malginadi Sparring Session

    Looks to me like Conor's hand is too far away for it to be considered a hit. Looks more like Paulie dodged it, otherwise his head would be a lot more backwards in comparison to Conor's hand, which obviously isn't the case here. If he hit that uppercut, I'm sure Paulie would look a lot more...

    Conor McGregor best shot to KO Floyd is to catch him off the pull counter or pull back

    Because he has no boxing record. He is 0-0 in pro boxing

    Gym idiots

    You have asked what could this workout possibly do for you and saying how shrugging some heavier weight would do you better, which is not true at all, as they are pretty damn different movesets, where only similarities are that both are hitting your traps. Why not use both? Also, I'm usually...

    Gym idiots

    Hate to say it man, but you are the one that sounds like a gym idiot. I get that they got in people's way, but farmer walks are pretty damn legit. Maybe if you picked 2 100lbs dumbbells and tried it yourself for a couple of sets you'd actually see why, instead of being a classic meathead. If...

    Tony Did Not Get Paid Full Purse because...

    They also offered him less money to fight MJ, that's why he declined. So, in the end, he got screwed by UFC whichever way you look at it.
