Real horror show…
Real horror show…
Same… I bought every book I could afford in hopes of getting my wife and daughter into it… we played a handful of campaigns and then they lost interest.
I still hold out hope that someday we might return…
Why yes, you CAN put a tomatoes in your fruit salad. It is a fruit after all.
The sheer force of will to keep those leaky bastards topside…
If you exclude Breath of Fire, MM Legends, and a handful of other things, this is probably a mostly bullshit title anyways…
Plyometrics are kind of a choose your own adventure in this workout. We encouraged explosive movements like box jumps, squat jumps, mountain climbers, skip jumps, etc. Basically anything that encouraged development of fast twitch muscles.
I’m sure you’ll get as many different answers as people you ask in that regard, so just do a bit of reading about the basics of Plyometrics and you can tailor them to your specific use case.
Here is the “standard” list of auxiliary exercises, but really it can be any lift that focuses on the muscle group you’re exercising that day. This workout is modular in that you can tweak it to whatever lifts work best for you.
And you’re welcome… I’m by no means an authority on any of it… but I’ve been in your shoes and if my trial and error can expedite your goals, then it costs me nothing but my coffee getting cold while I type.
Feel free to reach out if you’ve got any questions, I’ll do my best to answer them.
I missed your edit:
Week 1- 3x3 (strength)
Week 2 - 3x5 (stamina)
Week 3 - 5, 3, 1 (rep max)
Week 4 3x10 (recover)
You don’t have to go nuts with it… but switching up your exercises and confusing your body is the ideal way to build muscle mass.
A lot of them can be done in the privacy of your room (if you don’t live on the upper floors of an apartment), or a back yard. The lifts are really the only thing you need the gym for, the rest can be done anywhere.
Should I try this then?
Only you can really answer that, this is a workout I have personal experience with and have 100% seen it transform people in your exact situation. Will it do the same for you? I don’t know. Will it kill you if you do it for a month? Probably not. Will you learn something? Probably, and no day is a waste in which you learn something.
If you DO wind up giving it a shot, I’d love to hear how to pans out for you.
It absolutely is… but it’s a start to building up your core muscle groups. Once you build that, then you can start fine tuning specific groups as you want.

Here is more what I was suggesting, take it for what it’s worth…it’s a fairly old system lol.
It’s changed then… it used to be a 5 day a week deal.
Are your weights always static? Or do you mix it up?
What does your diet look like? I know you said your parents aren’t a fan, but you can still do some rough math and figure out what (if anything) you’re lacking. My guess would be, since you’re eating what you’re parents make, you could be lacking protein or something. In college, our strength trainers would feed guys in your position peanut butter and honey sandwiches with protein shakes.
There are also supplements you could take… but I don’t like suggesting those because your body could react differently than mine or anyone else’s. Do your due diligence on those… but when I was your age (maaaaany moons ago lol) I used to take one tablespoon of glutamine direct on my tongue and wash it down with water right after a work out. Don’t know if the direct approach was necessary, but it was the thing at the time.
All of that being said…don’t quit. I’ve been in your shoes, and it’s waaaaaaay to easy to go back to being a “fat fuck” and anything is better than nothing, even if your goals don’t manifest immediately. It might be time to try a different workout though, check out the “Bigger, Faster, Stronger” workout (assuming it’s still around). The places I’ve been that used it had a lot of success with it and produced some very strong individuals. If you’re interested, let me know and I’ll see if I can scrounge up a link or some material.
The bubbles help clean stains!
This is a fascinating topic for me, I would love to hear your reasoning for sticking with the underdog. Is it just a “stick it to the man” scenario or is there some more practical reason?
Mullvad appears to have been review bombed lately due to removal of port forwarding and people say it has back slid recently… any opinions on that?
Proton VPN looks solid though
I’m about to get into the market for a new VPN, who’s the top dog privacy wise nowadays? Been using TorGuard, but the bulk subscription I purchased will expire this fall, and they have since on-shored their operations.
Use cases at the moment: General/Adblock Occasion p2p/torrent
Honestly… I’d just settle for a next election…
