Guest T®ITEC Posted July 9, 2004 Report Posted July 9, 2004 DDR really does work wonders. That's my method of choice, anyway... Get yourself one of the RedOctane dance pads, as they'll last a lot longer. Er, yeah. I'm a DDR freak...
Guest bigm350 Posted July 9, 2004 Report Posted July 9, 2004 5'8" 215 lbs. A little bit of a gut but a lot of muscle too. I can bench press 350 lbs. raw.
Guest tSlater Posted July 10, 2004 Report Posted July 10, 2004 That settles it. I'm getting DDR and a dance pad this christmas or whenever the hell I have money, whichever comes first. There's a friend of mine (coincidentally, with the surname Slater =P) that's obsessed with DDR to a disturbing level, although he doesn't really benefit from the exercise in the way of weight loss, 'cos he's a fucking twig. I actually gain weight from it. 1) As he said, I'm a fucking twig. All my weight gain from it has been due to gain in muscles mass in my legs. On some of the harder songs on the hardest modes, like say Max 300 (300 BPM with an eigth note run) that's like 10 steps per second. There's no way you can't gain muscle from that (either that or severly injure it from lack of practise...) 2) for those who aren't twigs like me, it's definately a great workout. A lot better than running, IMHO. I remember getting one of those Adult Happy Meals from McDonald's just for the heck of it, and this little booklet in it said that a city block was about 200 steps. On the moderate modes, just one DDR song is about 200 steps. Plus, it's a game at the same time and is open to competition on many levels, whether you want to go for a high score or if you wanna freestyle and breakdance while hitting the right arrows.
Guest T®ITEC Posted July 12, 2004 Report Posted July 12, 2004 I still can't understand how anyone can actually do Max 300, but uh, anyway. Any and all of the Paranoia songs will exhaust you quite quickly. They're good stuff.
Murmuring Beast Posted July 12, 2004 Report Posted July 12, 2004 I'd say I was the skinniest member on here. Even skinnier than Banky. I'm 6 foot 1 and 145 soaking wet.
EricMM Posted July 12, 2004 Report Posted July 12, 2004 MAX300 what? MAX300 on light is pretty easy IMO...
BrokenTiger Posted July 13, 2004 Report Posted July 13, 2004 I'm about 5'6" and 192 pounds. Used to train actively in martial arts (Tae Kwon Do, Karate, Muay Thai, Pencak Silat) but hurt my back in '99. Whenever I tried to even do some light workout...the pain always return. Only recently, I'm medically cleared for any vigorous activity. Heh, I'm not sure whether I can be 100% again...maybe I just need to be mentally strong. I bet Sass would squash me in 00:07. Which would be a negative DUD, for sure.
JJMc Posted July 18, 2004 Report Posted July 18, 2004 6'3" to 6'4" and around 185. Jason That's me. Probably closer to 6'3"
The Mandarin Posted August 2, 2004 Report Posted August 2, 2004 5'11, 139. I have NO muscle at all in my arms..it's just bones. I'm planning on starting a weightlifting schedule, though.
Steviekick Posted August 2, 2004 Report Posted August 2, 2004 I'm about 5'11" 225 pounds. That's about what I am, but only 6'2". That seems to be the size of your average metal listener.
B. Brian Brunzell Posted August 2, 2004 Report Posted August 2, 2004 6'2" and 205 lbs. In the year-and-a-half since I left Chicago for West BAH GAWD~! Virginia, I've dropped nearly 50lbs. The beer-belly is almost gone, which makes me both happy and sad at the same time.
Guest The Winter Of My Discontent Posted August 2, 2004 Report Posted August 2, 2004 I'd say I was the skinniest member on here. Even skinnier than Banky. I'm 6 foot 1 and 145 soaking wet. Thats scary. Go eat some steaks and a protein bar. I am proud of being skinny, I don't care. Although ym girlfriend said the sex would be better if I got a bit stronger. HA!
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted August 2, 2004 Report Posted August 2, 2004 Your woman called you limp-wristed.
Dangerous A Posted August 2, 2004 Report Posted August 2, 2004 I'm about 30 lbs overweight right now and once I move in mid August, will be looking to get back to dieting down and working out again, possibly getting back into playing basketball daily. When I go back to hoops daily, I tend to drop 15-20 lbs in about a month, no sweat. Oh yeah, I'm 5'11, 230 lbs right now. I feel my best around 195-205lbs and within 12-15% body fat. Right now I'm rockin about 20% bodyfat. Definitely need to cut down the fried foods dramatically as well as add more fruits and veggies to my meals. I know what I need to do to get where I should be, now it's just a matter of having the desire to do it.
Guest The Winter Of My Discontent Posted August 2, 2004 Report Posted August 2, 2004 Your woman called you limp-wristed. I do have tendonitis in both wrists, that may have something to do with that. I'm serious. I can't even do it in the missionary position because I can't hold my weight up for longer than 30 seconds...and I don't want to squish her by continously collapsing on her prone body.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted August 2, 2004 Report Posted August 2, 2004 I thought you said you were skinny? Your house of cards is collapsing, Banky.
Guest The Winter Of My Discontent Posted August 2, 2004 Report Posted August 2, 2004 I thought you said you were skinny? Your house of cards is collapsing, Banky. I am, my girlie arms can't support my sickly frame...I'm that weak...and injured.
Guest The Winter Of My Discontent Posted August 2, 2004 Report Posted August 2, 2004 It's alright Banky. No its not. She's tired of my weakness. She probably already has another lover on the side. Or she may just decide to kick my ass one of these days for being so worthless and useless.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted August 3, 2004 Report Posted August 3, 2004 Lets see the woman. I'm going to kick your ass and she'll fuck me because I'm bigger and stronger. That's if she's worth the drive, anyway.
DangerousDamon Posted August 4, 2004 Report Posted August 4, 2004 I'm 5'9 and 181 pounds. I only bench 195. but I'm one of the fastest guys on my football team.
Guest The Winter Of My Discontent Posted August 4, 2004 Report Posted August 4, 2004 Lets see the woman. I'm going to kick your ass and she'll fuck me because I'm bigger and stronger. That's if she's worth the drive, anyway. I've shown her your picture, I think she'd be more inclined to fuck Ric Ocasek than you. But he has an ridiculous looking wife, so maybe she may have a thing for him too...
Vyce Posted August 4, 2004 Report Posted August 4, 2004 I'm 6', 188 lbs. I've actually lost around 45 lbs. in the last five months, which puts me in the best shape I've been in, sadly, at least 10 years or so. I'm not quite down to my target weight of 180, but hopefully in the fall I can establish a decent exercise routine and shed the remaining few, and tone myself up.
