  I tried it and I have to admit it kicked my ass after two weeks. P90X is seriously intense. Anyone who can keep up with it will defiantly end up movie-star-ripped after the 90 days.

  Elsewhere, the two week mark is probably the biggest "hump" in the program. Before that point you'll just be sore as hell, but after that, your body is asking you "what exactly is going on here?"

  I'm not even doing pull ups yet--I've been so heavy and lacked the upper body strength to make up for it. So I replace all the pull up routines with the bands. Someday I'll start the pull-ups, but it's not a priority.

  stop bitchin about your health, ride a bike. the only diet that is foolproof iz excercise. maybe its the witnesses fault.

  Bitching about my health? The only one bitching here is you, bitch. And you're wrong. Losing weight effectively is 20% exercise, 80% nutrition, in terms of effort and time.

  What Was YOUR Worst Quality As A JW?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for me it had to be that i was trained to be judgmental.

  i'm naturally a person who doesn't believe everything someone says---just because they say it's true.

  still, a "good elder" is supposed to be watchful of what might "contaminate" the congregation.. so, it's time to bare your soul.

  I was told by a long-timer (now passed away) that there used to be questions fielded from the audience by the Public Talk speaker after he gave the talk. This would have probably been at least 40+ years ago.

  Their attempts at loosening some things (blood fractions, number of meetings, etc.) don't outweigh the hardline stance they've maintained. Their stance has not always been consistent, however, which leads me to believe there are significant pressures from within the GB to ease up on things. You can see it happen even now, with TR still not dead yet (god I hope that jerk goes soon).
