Bro, seriously. Your trying to debate a child. Ignore him. He's an early teen troll. Didn't you see my posts about the PM's from him I shared with the forum?

I wish Simon would just ban this kid.

organization obsesion

by Richard C B in

why are you guys so obsessed with organizations?

there has to be order in the world and organised people!

No he is a literal child and a troll. The last time he swung by here he was shut down quickly, particularly with the profanity laden PM's he sent me which I shared with the forum. No seriously, he's a child looking to troll, period. Just ignore the little brat.

Twilight and other banned media

thanks to online media of movies and books i've recently been watching the twilight series.

issues of quality aside i enjoyed it enough.

i mostly wanted to see what the fuss was about and have the fun of seeing a movie that was banned from the platform when it came out.

Same old story. Create superstitious fear and hysteria (Satan and his demons) amongst people then tell them you have the only means of combating them. With shamans it's a talisman, with the WTS it's the GB's decrees.

Just because the JW'S are wrong doesnt mean theres no god.

by atomant in

l;ve been giving this some serious consideration lately.l dont have all the answers no one does.we are all entitled to our opinions.l certainly dont believe in evolution as lve researched that subject extensively.lt's important to believe in something even if its for mental health.l believe everything happens for a reason.l also believe if we all live as close to the 10 commandments as possible this world would be a far better place to live and no one can argue with that.

Health, fitness and recovery advice

by SecretSlaveClass in

i hope this is okay with you simon, but since i've noticed the number of forum members looking to discuss or seek advice on various health issues i thought it would be a good idea to start a thread dedicated to this topic alone.

any discussions or advice on these matters could be put here where any and all would be welcome to jump in with any help they could offer.

i am working on the first questions at the moment taken from the cognac/morpheus weight loss thread.

Does the above chart have any significance regarding losing weight and exercising?
Sure. It's basically a somatotype chart. Refer to my answer above to KiddingMe.
I have always heard about pear shape vs. apple shape.
I'm definitely an apple.
More like the athletic build on this chart, except I'm not athletic.
I don't have a waist and I never had much of a waist even when I was thin.
So, I'm more testosterone influenced according to this chart?

Testosterone has nothing to do with your skeletal structure as far as somatotype per say. Where testosterone affects the skeleton are when you reach puberty and begin to increase the production of sex hormones and again later in life when your sex hormones decrease. Once sex hormones reach "adult" level, the signal to the bone growth process is "stop growing, you're an adult now." The bones growth plates seal and the bones cease to grow in length. But the size and density of bones don't affect sex hormone levels, rather it's the other way round. You can be an endomorph and have a high free testosterone count and have a Mesomorph structure with a low count. Healthy levels of sex hormones result in strong bones, low level else have the opposite effect. Hence the effects of low estrogen levels can be seen in post menopausal women who are prone to loss of bone density (osteoporosis). Testosterone is a primary component for building muscle however, and people who have higher levels, regardless of somatotype are prone to building bigger, stronger muscles than those with lower levels of testosterone.

What does that mean regarding working out?

As explained, skeletal structure does not dictate how much free testosterone you have available. But if you had higher than normal levels, you would get bigger stronger muscles and burn fat faster.

I thought the thick bone structure was a myth or excuse that some used.

Not a myth at all although some do use it as an excuse for being fat.

From googling the term, it looks like I'm of a thick bone structure. I never thought this the case, just overweight.

I prefer the term "over fat", since having a high body fat percentage is the problem, not weight

Is it really about the "bone" structure or those more prone to store body as oppose to those with a more muscular build? Are they same?

When I refer to somatotypes there are three basic types:

Endomorph- large bones, hips as wide or wider than shoulders and the most prone of the three somatotypes to gaining body fat.

Mesomorph- Medium bones, broad shoulders, narrow hips, gain muscles faster than the other two somatotypes but more prone to gaining body fat than an ectomorph.

Ectomorph- light bone structure, narrow to shoulders and hips, struggles to gain both muscle and body fat.

Very few people are a pure somatotype. Most people are a combination of two or more somatotypes. You could have the bone structure of an ectomorph but have the ability to gain fat like an endomorph or muscle like a Mesomorph. It's more complex than this explanation but my intention is to simply give you a basic understanding of how skeletal structures are used as a general frame of reference when taking body weight and gains into account.

Can the bone structure change overtime?

Arrangement does not change, but structure can and does as we age, suffer injury or become victims of some diseases.

I feel like once i get rid of the fat, i would no longer look like the big bone structure but somewhere in between the big and fine types? If that makes any sense? I guess I'm trying understand what defines bone structure, weight, muscles, etc?

Bone density and proportion generally define somatotype classification. As I mentioned, it's more complex than that but suffices as a general frame of reference. Other than that I'm not quite sure what your last question is asking.

Don't bother arguing with this child, and I mean child in the literal sense. Richie do I need to repost those PM's you sent me the last time you came by?
