Flame Free Confession III: Even More Flame Free (Part 2)

I confess I had (some) whipped cream with my pancakes today - and could not resist thinking about cool whip.

Is there ANY advantage with cool whip (over whipped cream)?

I heard someone tried building muscle on a cool whip diet, and another injecting cool whip directly into his veins! That must mean something.

Cool whip is a bit more satisfying to eat IMO because it’s thicker, but you cant do whippets without reddi whip, so +1 for whipped cream.
Also, whipped cream never goes bad because it’s charged with nitrogen… Mold cannot grow without oxygen, so another +1 for whipped cream.

Some people, however, are prone to believe that mainlining cool whip will help with gainz, so -1 cool whip.

In conclusion: I have no evidence to say cool whip is better than whipped cream, but I still prefer cool whip if I was to use it for something (which I never do)

It all goes back to the BALCO labs thing.

ā€œThe Clearā€ is different colors of Jello. Orange, green, etc. Everybody knows about Green.

ā€œThe Creamā€ typically refers to any dairy based whipped topping whether its whipping cream, steamed milk for lattes, reddi whip and beyond into the more exotic non-dairy stuff you only see in the upper echelon athletes.

Then there’s the custard based branch of performance enhancers, but those are asking for it.

I used a stack of these a while back.

It got out of hand quickly. Cops got called. More cops got called. Columbus will never be the same.

Some goof photobombed a pic of my statue.

I’ve toned my chaos down significantly over the years, but unfortunately it seems to still be too much

One of my professors is very much a wild card. He gives me hope somewhat…

yes. I have very set habits, but I’m quite chaotic in my mannerisms

I have a tendency to not have a filter.

To quote my friend (that one): ā€œmost of my job as president (of ERC) has been toning down your impulsesā€

Ah. I like to think of that as ā€œwithout filterā€, as you wrote.

I think conventional barbell deadlifts have a low ROI in terms of training for hypertrophy. When I do use the movement in the future, it’ll be due to convenience (I can leave it plate loaded in my backyard) and I’ll train it for strength low volume easy strength style. That means that when I start a dedicated bulk effort later in the year, I’ll be using trap bar deadlifts (low handle) for the commonly suggested programs (building the monolith, deep water).

For it for BtM. Think it won’t have the desired effect for Deep Water.

Nothing is written in stone. I have good proportions for deadlifting, nor have I ever experienced pain from them, so perhaps a high-calorie diet would remedy any recovery issues.

I’m practically lab built for conventional deadlifting, but with Deep Water, the 10x10s break down my very soul. My lungs and ribs will hurt for days afterwards. It’s just different. The trap bar is a cool lift, but I don’t feel it inflicts the same misery.

Same. Deadlifts would take parts of my soul every time. No other lift could hurt me like that.

Does it have a cheese grater blade? I confess I hate grating cheese by hand like an animal.

Genuinely curious. What are your impulses?

If they arent something you want to admit publicly thats understandable. I just like to know what people do sometimes at a base level.

No, it’s a basic chopper only.
A cheese blade would be nice.

Oh, stuff like taking an autocratic approach to decisions
