Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[Pridedad]

I’ve yet to see this guy do a leg day.

He gets plenty of leg work through leg drive on bench press reps

He should. 16 games adds a lot of opportunities.

Fair point. DSamp would still own the record. But McEver played 10 games and Cobb 12 or 13. (Cobb played 13, but bowl games only began counting toward single-season and career statistics in 2002. Idk if totals of previous seasons were recalculated to include bowls.)

Btw, DSamp is already in a 6-way tie for second place for most rushing TDs in a game with 4 last year against KY. Vol great Gene McEver scored 5 TDs in a 1929 game.

Eliminating processed carbs and sugars will have an immediate impact on your mood, energy levels, and physique. If you can eliminate these and increase your protein intake to carve cravings you will see results. I highly recommend a full body workout split. Hit every muscle group daily, only doing 3 sets per muscle group. Your muscles wont fatigue and you can hit them hard everyday instead of being fatigued on your 4th or 5th movement when doing a traditional split. I’ve worked out consistently for the last 13years and switched to this a little over a year ago and I’m in the best shape of my life at 41. A buddy of mine started the split in January and is down 38 lbs also adding lean muscle mass. Happy to break this down for you in more detail if interested.

Also recommend a hydration/pink salt supplement. Kaged Hydracharge is my go to.

I am not a personal trainer and this strictly anecdotal from my years of lifting and adopting a health & fitness lifestyle in my late 20s. In the last few years I’ve immersed myself into biohacking and nerd out on ways to make the body perform optimally as I get older.

Curious about your full body workout…roughly, how long do you workout each day? I typically spend 1-1.25 hrs each day doing the traditional 5 day split. (Chest, back, shoulders, legs, arms)

Reason I ask, I don’t hv time to spend 3 hours a day in the gym like I’ve heard others I know doing.

easy to see why teams are able to negative recruit HB's against us. We are a passing only offense.

Day one in the village of Trash, um, I mean Nash, is complete. Mostly good news. I do have to have a cardiac stress test in a few months. Huzzah. One more day in this hell and I get to return home to the land of the Vols. Double huzzah!

Hope it was all good news on the second day.

I’m in and out in 1-1.25 hrs and that’s including some core work. If I superset I can get it done under an hour.

WTH bro

What in the entire nation is going on?

 

[Orange_Crush]

Any drink that’s sugary will help tremendously

Don't drink calories.

DD4ME hot takes (fade me if needed)

UGA loses to Bama and jeopardizes making the playoff.

SC knocks Mizzou out of the SEC and playoff

Both UT's make the SEC championship due to tiebreaker wins over UGA and Bama. It is literally the 1st battle for the real UT in SEC.

Win or lose TN is in the driver's seat.

I’ve been telling my buddies this same scenario for weeks!

We’ve given every 17-23 year old college athlete the keys to Entitlement and they have little, if any, wisdom and discernment.

I also didn't say that at all lol

You can't take back what you said. You clearly said I was the king of the RF, and @Glitch is a mere peon.

I'm 6'3" and recently topped out at 300. I'm the strongest I've ever been from working the farm but I have to cut weight. Too much time spent working the farm to work out but I've decided to go protein and cut out cokes, been drinking some diet green tea. Any other recommendations?

Im far from an expert…just have been researching a lot online and trying different things to find what works for me.

Like others have said, get away from the highly processed foods (essentially, most anything that are in the aisles at the grocery store). I now, for the most part, shop on the outside walls of the grocery. I stay away from fried foods and avoid vegetable/seed oils. (Research the history of those oils)

Eating high quality protein will satiate you and will help to prevent you from overeating. I will buy a big package of chicken breasts at Sam’s, split the breasts to make them thinner, then grill them on a Sunday. There’s a huge chunk of my protein for the week. (I also drink a 30g protein shake each morning as soon as I wake up. Drink a whey protein shake within 30 mins after my workouts). Drink a BUNCH of water.

It’s a slow process, but I just remind myself that my body didn’t get into bad shape overnight…it’s not going to get into good shape overnight either.

Consistency is the key IMO. I imagine with all the farm work that you do, you’re getting in great exercise. Just have to shore up the food intake and try to go at a calorie deficit each day. (I’ve regularly seen a daily 500 calorie deficit recommended, but as stated earlier, you hv to see what works best for you)

Best of luck on your journey!

EDIT: I also completely quit alcohol back in the spring.

Well, @Weezer is a known liar and troublemaker. He eats peoples pets and clogs up drains with his dirty matted fur and then blames it on me and others.

Says the liar and known jinx. Glitch tries to bring bad luck to the Vols every chance he gets.

 

[Weezer]

Snuggies made from @Weezer fur? If you could get the dirt, poo, and lice out of it, NO!

My fur is clean. We Yeti are not as disgusting as you humans.

bru their parents gave them that from D1. We only enabled it.

Cutting out sodas are great. Start with that. Diet green tea will give you a lift in mood and stamina, but it won’t hold up long term, but will make you feel better. Unfortunately, your body will slow down losing weight at this time of year. Take your calorie intake down slow and listen to your body. Our bodies like to start bulking up this time of year. There’s a reason for that. Our bodies are geared to protect. Notice when we crave lighter meals and when we crave consistent big meals?

Mobsters telling the feds to outlaw liquor so they can police it.

Let bad programs picking bad players suffer. The market is infinitely more competent than the NCAA. This is an area I'd gladly debate with any glory day lovers. You cannot uncork free labor.

I love the argument:

“It’s a shame these kids aren’t getting the full amounts of their promised NIL dollars. So you should definitely give us back the power to punish them for getting any NIL dollars.”

It get's jalapeño business.

Still worn out from my trip to the land of the Commode Whores, where Glitch resides. I, of course, live in the Land of the Volunteers. So someone help me with the news of the day. Anything big happen? Have we burned Lance Heard in effigy yet?

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Who is in charge of the UNLV Athletic Department? That statement is a death nail to their athletic program. RIP! Idiotic.

Why?...and it is knell, not nail...unless we are adding it to the VN lexicon..

I'm not being argumentative with this question...I am curious as to your thinking.

Wow...those in FLA take care....

 

[Weezer]

Nor would we vote for @SergeantVol for Mod, so don't get any silly ideas in your head.

Nor would we vote for Glitch to start a game thread. Damn jinx.
