Cordelia was in it from the start but I'm glad they killed Doyle off, an equally annoying Irish version of Xander just wasn't needed - he wasn't any good at anything except for receiving messages from the powers so why not use the hawt chick instead.Quote:

Cordelia, that is.
I just watch Conan again as it was premiering on TMN. Best part was Conan as a kid , in the rest of the movie not much really happened.:mellow: The main villain lacked charisma and wasn't convincing evil enough.The big set pieces weren't thrilling enough by half and the climax was both a little confusing and pretty flat.Quote:

Conan isn't Sir Galahad, everything( and that includes the fight scenes) needs to have a better sense of immediacy, be in your face and down and dirty.
Hoi! Cunning linguist!Quote:

So what you're saying here is that your glass of conan is half empty.Quote:

After freaking out for the last few days because the inadvertently illegal something I ordered into Canada was hung up in Customs "being reviewed" they just passed it and shipped it.:unsure:

It could well be the most fantastic thread this week.
If you don't have a prize, I'll donate a Turkey T-Shirt I have hanging around.
If it was a knock-off of some sort, it might not be as illegal as customs like to imply in those notes they send you.
Idk much of Canadian law in particular, but importing something like that for personal use is usually allowed, iirc.

This post makes you sound like a total lawbreakin' badass! :fear:Quote:

All the same dude [Y/N]?
If not, what sort of fuckwits join this forum for the nonsense they've been posting?
I only wish it was as cool as that.:OQuote:

I'd have guessed something like this. True story.
No but I'd gladly trade my left nut for one if anyone would like to offer.Quote:

Apparently you still can't import drugs.:mellow:
You can thank Cancer research for that one.Quote:

You are speaking as someone who has read a lot but has never used a PWO.I thought the same way until I tried one and the experience being a bit revelatory.
Sure most of the "benefits" are simply a caffeine high but I can honestly say that I rarely feel the same level of limiting fatigue that I use to experience all the time the day following a hard workout.
Anyway as far as I've heard there are no studies to link DMAA to cancer if that's what you are suggesting .Any of the anecdotal side effects seem to be more about increased anxiety or shortness of breath.The alleged risk of higher blood pressure or increased pulse seems to have been pretty much disproved.:unsure:
Also detoxifying from creatine?Your body produces creatine .:unsure:Sure if you overdose on the stuff you may end up harming your kidneys/liver but simply eating a diet too high in protein could have the same effect.
Anyway I'm not a scientist so I would be more than happy to believe anything you tell me if you back it up will hard evidence.
So, we can look forward to your future posts reading like a Jew with asthma, then. :pinch:Quote:

Sure, it increases a lot of Phosphate pathways etc. but there are other rate limiting steps involved in those pathways that are Creatine-independent. This is the explanation for all the muscle water weight you gain with Creatine. The body simply can't hydrolyze as fast as it needs, and it definitely can't utilize Creatine-P as fast as you supplement it. Your body can accustom itself to naturally produce that extra Creatine should it need it.
Your experience of feeling less exhausted after a work-out is not a placebo. But that's all the advantage Creatine supplements can actually give you. Creatine is great for short-burst energy, usually the 45 minute optimal work-outs etc. Other than that, it really can't do much in the body in the long-term. Just google "Creatine Efficacy" if you need more on that, but almost no one in the scientific/medical community thinks it's worth supplementing for the long term or for endurance sports.
Right, but given Creatine's increased concentration and the equilibrium to-and-fro fat deposits, the body stores more of it in fat when its activity (not to be confused with efficacy) is higher. These unnecessarily stored creatines can lay dormant in the body for decades and fuck your balance up later in life. This is one of the reasons why a lot of weight trainers adopt the 6/46 or 6/47 training schedule as opposed to a 7/52 which would logically provide higher gains. It lets the body run some of the stored water and excess creatine down, and is generally healthier for your muscles to grow at a slower pace and a slightly more natural environment.Quote:

We are talking about creatine, right?Quote:

I've never studied creatine behavior or anything, but on a purely fundamental approach, the thought that "most of it is stored in fat" is beyond far fetched.

Fat stores Lipids and Water in a 1:3 ratio in its storage tissues. Basically almost any and all circulatory molecules get stored. 'Tis why people can have resurgence or allergic reactions from foods they haven't eaten in a very long time.Quote:
