If joining the Infantry is a long-term goal, the state of recruiting right now seems rather irrelevant. And while we have a number of very knowledgeable individuals, I don't know that telling the future of recruiting one, two, or five years down the line is something anyone wants to guess at...

Where did you read that?

I put on 28 pounds in 4 months when I started strength training. For me, I was underweight at 6'4 - 175, and I wanted to fill out my frame. I got a good workout plan that worked on my big lifts, the squat, deadlift, bench, and overhead press. As for the diet, if you're serious, you're just...

Everyone's mad at the Liberals, so the NDP should get a boost. Except, the NDP can't even seem to run their own party properly, and the only other party who actually fields a full number of candidates is the Greens. Personally, I favor a write-in vote for TSN's "Maggie the Monkey" to make all...

Or, if I had to succinctly summarize my opinion on the sit-up: Nobody should use an isolation move such as the sit-up as the foundation for their core training. Core training should come primarily from actively engaging the core muscles in your abdominals and back to aid in the performance of...

While I'm glad to see that there are a number of different exercises, I'm still a little surprised that they all seem to be variations on the basic theme of isolating the abs in a curl. My objection to the idea of training the sit-up or the curl is less of a condemnation of them in general, and...

I guess that ties back into my main point. Yes, at some point in time, someone will almost undoubtedly have to perform a sit-up type motion. And yes, the sit-up is a commonly tested indicator of core fitness. But that does not mean that you have to (or even should) try to train your core...

Then I guess this really speaks to the need for everyone to train for overall fitness, and not just one or two moves that they commonly have to do on a regular basis. It's the same reason I'd never train to get better at pushups by doing pushups. If you're not training all four of your...

If you seriously believe that no store owner ever does anything beyond what is reported in the popular media to the letter, then I think you will find your search for proof fruitless. It is safe to say your requests for confirmation have quickly spiraled from "mildly inconvenient" into the...

Reposted from my previous post, will the apologies that you happened to read it before I got the second one in. Edit 2: Oh what the hell, it's not like I'm doing anything interesting tonight anyways. http://hamptonroads.com/2009/02/no-hats-no-hoods-no-sunglasses-allowed-nc-bank...

Then I will leave, hopefully having fully substantiated to your standards, my original comments regarding the phenomemon of banning such face coverings as balaclavas in certain banks and stores. Have a Happy New Year.

Who said anything about Hijabs? The discussion was about balaclavas.

Examples? The liquor store down the street from me has about six signs posted, including such gems as "No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service", "No large bags or backpacks allowed on the premises", "We reserve the right to check all bags", "No hats or face coverings may be worn inside the premises", "No...

While balaclavas aren't banned country-wide, there are numerous stores and banks which ban them from being worn on the premises.

I'm not going to lie, I lost all interest around the third or fourth rambling, pointless paragraph. I kept hoping and waiting for some facts or something, but all I got were some rather dubious correlation = causation arguments. I guess I'm just not cut out for this.

See if you can create a GUI interface using Visual Basic to track his IP! ;D

An honest answer to this would be: "Someone might choose not to train for a higher level on the beep test if it would conflict with their other personal fitness goals."

The phrases "unstoppable Mach 5 hypersonic hammerblows" and  "irresistible Mach-7 thunderbolts" get me excited.

If Grapes were a preacher, maybe I'd go to church more.
