Flame Free Confession III: Even More Flame Free (Part 1)

[dt79]

I confess I would move this thread to the politics forum just to troll everyone here if I had the power to.

I also finally found lactose free chocolate milk. Some overpriced Japanese brand but it’s worth it. It’s GOMAD time.

I don’t know if it’s available wherever you’re at, but we have Fairlife in the States. It’s too expensive for me to buy consistently but I like it when I do get some.

[dt79]

Nope. We do have cheaper lactose free milk but all the other brands don’t have chocolate flavor.

MMM… Chocolate…

I’ll just cut down on the ice cream and the budget will more or less even itself out.

[T3hPwnisher]

I’m genuinely surprised that, with your lightning metabolism, you haven’t just bought the non-chocolate stuff and dumped chocolate syrup into it.

I confess that I miss the “bear mode” kid that wanted to look like a rugby prop. Primiarily because I miss talking about training and eating like that. It’s a shame he was so thick headed: coulda actually been an interesting topic.

Why would I do that when I can buy chocolate ice cream and dump chocolate syrup on it lol?

Milk just makes life easier. I can wake up in the middle of the night to take a piss and down half a carton of it at the same time.

I confess I appreciate the major historical tangents all threads here tend to take.

I’ve learned all sorts of stuff from you meat heads, including now the history of South Africa.

[thefourthruffian]

I confess that I heard a complaint via a JAG officer about me calling certain Afghani “fucking goat humpers” to certain Air Force personnel I came across.

I confess conspiring with certain senior AF officers to keep the entire unit out in the cold and freezing rain in summer uniforms just to punish them collectively for having a pussy amongst them.

isn’t that how chocolate milk is made?

[theBeth]

Now that’s a real confession worthy of this thread.

I’ve learned all sorts of stuff from you meat heads,

Aside from amazing support, I’ve gotten history lessons, legal advice, stock tips, relationship advice and much more!

@anna_5588

stock tips,

Wasn’t from “mammoth_package” was it?

I heard that guy is a jagoff.

I confess that after Monday’s squat workout my behind feels like I have had a Brazilian butt lift !!

That’s why Flame-Free 3 was moved into Off-Topic, because it had turned into an Off-Topic thread based on how members posted. It stayed on course and only a handful of the first 100+ posts here in Part 3 were about training.

Interesting and an implied confession (“I analysed the flame free thread for training vs non-training posts”)

My favourite is probably with sausage

Too phallic:

[Iron_Condor]

Not so much a confession but a general comment/observation: it always amazes me how wide the divide is between what is considered fit/strong on meathead forums compared to the perception of the general public. I was asked by a couple ladies at work, out of the blue, if I “do bodybuilding at the gym.”

… I’m 5’8, 155 lb and would be considered a cute little twink here.

@strongmangoals

Too phallic:

So, uh…which is the “implied confession”? It’s the sausage, isn’t it?

But hey, flame free!

The other morning I was training in a park.

I was near dip bars and there was this guy that I used to go to middle school with. He did some dip variation in which he would basically use a single bar in front of him, but with his elbows flared out a lot more than your regular front dip. It looked pretty hard.

So, without giving it much thought, I said casually, “that must be all triceps.”

“Nah, it’s all traps. And a bit of shoulders,” he said.

I took a deep breath, and just smiled and nodded briefly without saying one more word.

I think I’m slowly learning.

Dude the other day I was training at the park, and obese dude (he said me he was 120 kgs) told me he was only 20% bodyfat, he(d did it at his gym, did the calculations and all, use the scale with the coach… Told him he was AT LEAST 30%. Didn’t like that much. Then told me he had trouble losing weight, no matter what he would do. And anyway he told me he could never be 90 kgs because he’s 20% BF and has so much muscle hidden underneath.Then he told me he doesn’t eat chip,s you can have 400 calories in a 500 gr bag. I was like “dude there’s 400 calories in 100 grams”

Of course course the whole 1h30 I stayed he only did 5-6 back levers, which must have netted him 5 calories spent. Of course you can’t lose weight.

I’m never engaging with random people anymore rofl

I set a Spotify PR this year - over 27,800 minutes listened - and am extremely proud. Need to up those numbers next year.

Edit: I’m also in the top 0.1% of Black Stone Cherry listeners

[dagill2]

Immediately goes on Spotify to see how I compare.

Edit:

I confess I only managed a measly 10k minutes listened, sad! On the bright side, my most listened to song was the Paw Patrol opening theme with 305 listens so that’s cool, right?

[Cyrrex]

What the crap, is that a thing that we can do? As someone who listens to the same stuff over and over again, I must be in the top % of a handful of artists.
