that was cool, I read that topic

but there is no link to free proxys

"Free" proxies tend to unreliable, slow, and possibly unsecure, but if you insist,

Logically, the staff wouldn't necessarily assume the "multiple accounts to get NP" logic unless you do something suspicious to get flagged. There is no way a human looks through all the records individually on a case-by-case basis.

Well, don't I feel welcome? Thank you.

im sorry to be a jackass, unless any of you are super ripped AND have good muscle development with cardio then give him advice.
you guys arent really helping him at all. il just sit back and watch however. you guys are teaching him things like a book teachers a boy who doesnt know how to read.
what you should be doing is telling him things YOU have done yourselves that benefitted you and why so he learns.

I would trust peer-reviewed and published scientific journals over opinions from a bunch of muscleheads who take in enough anabolic steroids that their brain is made of muscle, to be honest. Doubly so if the said study covers a large sample group and what they did, or if the said musclehead tends to go on for hours about some protein shake and "keeping metabolism going overnight" with their drinks.

The thing is that "X worked for Y, so X must also work for Z!" logic doesn't necessarily work, and can (though not necessarily will) be dangerous.

I'll quote this Groven et al. here while cutting through the bullshit about "emotional differences" and so on. This will include re-stating the obvious for the sake of me being pedantic.

Although caloric restriction is considered paramount in order to lose weight, regular exercise must be carried out in order to generate substantial weight loss...

In particular, high-intensity training which involves weight lifting (70% of maximal intensity) combined with aerobic exercising (light jogging or stationary ergometer usage) has been proven effective for losing weigh...

Moreover, recent studies have shown that persons participating in high-intensity training are more likely to maintain their weight loss compared to persons with lower levels of physical activity...

But of course, since I don't actually disagree with SorrowNightshade when he said personal experiences are probably more helpful, here's what I do to keep trim;
o Relatively healthier meals, such as from here.
o About half an hour of light jogging per day (about 1.5km to 2km per day)
o Eat slightly less if I start gaining or losing weight. I use 5kg margin for no other reason that I like number 5.

"Getting ripped" is probably something you really should ask someone qualified to take a look at you and offer you opinions, preferably with an opinion from your primary care physician.

First off..are you trying to lose weight and turn it into muscle, or are you trying to gain weight? I'm sorta confused about your 'sentence'.

If you're trying to build muscle you have to eat a LOT, and I'm not talking about a lot of McDonalds and Wendy's or any of that fast food crap. I mean you need to eat a lot of red meat, chicken, fish *tuna especially*. Eating foods high in protein, 'good' carbs and 'good' fats will help you bulk up. Most of those carbs and fats will turn into muscle if you work out correctly. Making sure to eat a lot of protein will help in muscle recovery and growth.

I really can't help you with weight loss other then eat healthy smaller portions and exercise. Those Atkins diets and all that crap are just that..crap. When you lift weights try and only work one muscle group each day and do not cross train. Don't go to the gym and work your arms (biceps and triceps) then in the same session go work your back muscles. That will result in a great amount of pain and soreness. What I do is; Saturday I work my arms, Sunday I work my legs, Monday I work my chest and Tuesday I work my back/abs.

Damnit Boggart, you moved it before I had a chance to post haha.

More accurately, you only need to eat as much as you need (but for muscle building, that is "a lot").

Those less educated may say "calorie, calorie, calorie", but if it's just the calorie, you can fill that quota by eating sticks of butter. It's so easy to forget about actual nutrition.


My degree is more focused on pathology rather than healthy physiology, but from memory, it breaks down to :
a) Carbohydrates (they all break down to glucose and/or glycogen anyway), which tends to be the body's preferred source of energy. Readily available, easy to use and convert.
b) Protein, something people often call "buliding block of life". Most forms can be synthesized by the body anyway, and I've seen quite a few people talk about protein supplements (and perhaps it can be necessary depending on circumstances, despite my skeptism), but healthy (and balanced) meals would be preferable.

Muscle buildup is due to tearing of your muscle tissue (and reinforcing it). Permanent damage can (and has frequently to those who don't know this) result due to pushing it too far. Take it gradually. There is no quick fix. Being fit is a lifestyle change, something you keep up to maintain it (especially if it's for muscle buildup).

But alas, my memory fails me, perhaps someone who studied this more in-depth can correct me.


If you want futher reading, I've found this from PubMed by National Institute of Health (and you'll have to forgive me if I don't want to pay for an article I don't even need): http://www.tandfonli...t=cr_pub=pubmed


For simple, overall fitness though, I'd go with lighter version of Army's workout regime with good meals. Jogging, pushups, and situps.

As someone who used to work quite often with migrants, moved around the globe (more than I wanted to), and grew up with quite a few friends who were migrants, here are my observations:


a) There are quite a few international students, and a good portion of them relies on their parents working for a portion (or the entirety) of their living expenses (or tuition). Which don't tend to be cheap, especially at university-level.

b) The "parents" mentioned in point a) tends to lack language skills, since they spend majority of their time working so their kids can speak fluent English. I've noticed that quite a few Asian parents have the attitude of "everything I do is for my kid".

c) Quite a few elderly Asians I've seen - for example, the ones who migrated with the rest of the family because nobody else can take care of them - refuse to sit at home and do nothing, and will go off to work.

d) There isn't just two states of English proficiency of "Not speak English" or "I'm pretty damn good". Driving, for example, is a necessity in the U.S., something you tend to need ASAP, preferably before your English skills and levels match a native speaker's level. You only need to know the concept.

e) The xenophobic attitudes of people when they see migrants also doesn't particularly help in encouraging them to improve - why speak a language when all you will use it for is to listen to people talk shit about you anyway?

f) People form communities all the time of their own ethnicities. I've taught English in Korea for past 2 years (and did a bit of travelling around in East Asian regions), and we Americans tend to be just as bad in East Asian countries, it's just that most Americans don't see those.

g) Migrants =/= citizens. Starting from illegal immigrants to permanent residents and citizens, there are different "grades" of a migrant. An immigrating "citizen" tends to have passed requirements that most of the population can't pass themselves anyway (there is a difference between "qualify to be one" and "actually get to be one"). An "immigrant" can be anything, depending on their business.


Of course, for some people, there is simply no excuse. Learning the culture or the language of a country you're going into tends to be a common sense and a courtesy, but it goes both ways. Yes, how tolerant are we, as a nation, that we wish to make not knowing a language illegal, regardless of the circumstances. Perhaps we should then make it illegal to not speak this particular language.

The blame should not be on the migrants, but those who let people who shouldn't have come in, come in. Those who let people who shouldn't have welfare, have welfare.
