The Wilderness Guardians - OSRS Clan - PvP, PvM and More - OSRS Mobile Clans

Okay so yeah.

Over the past like half year or so I've dropped like 15 lbs just from changing my eating habits a bit.  I felt so much better lately that I decided I wanted to take the next step of actually doing some fitness training.

Went in for an assessment at my local club and here is roughly where I'm at.  Height: 6 ft 0 in; Weight: 140 lbs; BMI: ~20 (almost underweight); Body Fat %: 10-13

I want to focus on tone, I neither have the body type for nor do I find bulk something I want to look like.  With that said, here is what the guy suggested.

There is a line of equipment that goes through all of your major muscles.  He suggested I start with 2 sets of 15 reps each until I get used to doing it (I've never used equipment in my life) where the weight is enough that it is difficult for me to get through the 15, but 10 isn't that hard.  Once I'm used to it, he said I can move up to 3 sets, and keep doing that and to check back in with him in about a month.  I'll also do probably 30 mins of cardio each time I go in.  I play tennis 3-4 times a week so I get plenty from that.

I'm planning on going probably 3 or 4 times a week every other day.

Couple of questions:

1)  Calorie intake - should I be taking in more than the ~2500 calories/day or is that only if you're going for more bulk?  Same with after-workout stuff.  I know you should eat some kind of protein after you work out, but since I'm going for tone, am I fine with just like a little chicken/turkey/nuts/etc or do I need that powder shit?

2)  I texted my brother because he's a linebacker in (American) football.  He's been working out for awhile, but his stuff is focused on putting on lots of muscle (he's around 300 lbs).  He said tone is usually a high reps/low weights strategy.  Is this correct because that seems like a contradiction from what the trainer at the gym?  Is 15 high or low?  I'm a total noob at this.

3)  Will this cut down some of my remaining fat?  I'm fine mostly everywhere except my stomach and sides (will post pic later).

I will post a pic of myself at the moment, a pic of the sheet I'm filling out that shows all the machines I do, and I'm fairly sure the line of strength equipment is called Nautilus Nitro.

If you have any other suggestions or input at all, feel free to say whatever.  I'm going to really try and take this as seriously as I can and put a lot of effort into it.

Like I said I'm a total noob at this so if I missed anything just say so.

So E3 is going on for the next few days.  For those of you that don't know, it's basically the biggest gaming event every year where developers release trailers, gameplay, content, etc. for new games that are soon to be released.

Just wondering what you guys are excited about seeing.

I've lost all hope Valve will ever announce the next Half-Life game.  I've heard they may have some news about some new Counter-Strike content though.

At the moment, looking at Black Ops 2 trailers which looks good, but the most anticipated thing for me is....

Assassin's Creed III

This game looks like an amazing finale to the series and the cinematic trailer release earlier today almost made me jizz my pants.

Assassin's Creed III E3 Cinematic Trailer [North America]

Will definitely be going to the midnight release of ACIII and will be playing it all day.  I'll call in to work sick if I'm scheduled that day.

This is a topic to rant about campers.  From the not horrible ones that tend to just stick on a certain area, to the biggest faggots of them all that get all their kills purely from sitting around corners and waiting for people to go by.

My first online fps was Black Ops and I got into that late.  Ended up with around a 1.65 overall k/d and considering I have 50k+ kills that isn't going to change much.  MW3 I currently am about to reach an overall k/d of 2 but my TDM ratio is closer to 2.5-3 considering when I play Dom I try to win the game instead of get kills (weird I know).

I play a pretty rush based game-style and the only time I do anything resembling camping is if I have a UAV up and see 3+ people about to converge on my spot.  Basically I camp only when I have no other options and it's the only temporary way to stay alive.  Since I rush a lot, I tend to get killed by a lot of the people that just hide around corners.

What annoys me are several things.

1)  Campers almost always use one of the most op class setups (ie in Black Ops Ghost Pro, Famas silenced or noobtube).  So not only are they hiding around corners like little pussies, they're also doing so usually using one of the best guns in the game.

2)  It makes it boring for me to play.  I don't want to go around for 7-10 minutes killing the same person at the same spot over and over again.  Even if I do have a good game, it makes things really boring and repetitive when each game should be unique and random.

3)  I've come to the conclusion that most of these idiots do it to boost their poor self-esteem.  I highly doubt that these people actually find it fun to sit in one spot for 10 minutes.  So the main two things that make sense are that they are trolling and trying to piss people off which is a bit fucked up psychologically if you get off on other people's anger, or that it's the only way they can get mediocre games and they need to do it to feel good about themselves.

I'm not saying everybody has to rush like a crazed maniac like me, but don't just hide in one spot the entire game.  I have a 30-0 game on Firing Range from Black Ops where I used an M16 and played a defensive game because it's a shitty weapon to rush with and I was doing a contract for it.

Bit of a long rant, but yeah it does kind of piss me off a lot to be honest.  I rage a lot when I play it's hilarious.  The funny thing is that I'll usually be raging look at the scoreboard and realize I have the highest score in the game and a 2+ k/d.

I honestly feel like MW3 is actually a very well programmed and implemented game except for a few things (hit detection, revenge spawns, lag compensation), but the problem is that people are generally pussies because most of them suck at the game.  Personally, when I suck at something I just usually stop doing it, but I guess that's too logical.




So post your rants or shit noobs.

So here's a picture of the error message I get when I enter my password.



It says: "711 - Invalid class string.  Looking for object with ProgID: swiftirc.swiftircclient"

I've tried un-installing and re-installing a million times including deleting the original download file and all the SwiftKit files in my Program Files folder.  If I un-install and re-install, it will work for a small amount of time until it mysteriously stops working again and I get that same error message.

Any ideas or suggestions would be helpful.

P.S.  This is off-topic, but I have an illegal version of Windows 7, so what's the program that gets rid of all the messages and shit that comes up because of that?

Yeah, who's mad?

For some reason, SwiftKit won't load Runescape anymore.  It will load the main page, and when I click on "Play Now", I get the message "this program cannot display the webpage".

Runescape, however, will load on Mozilla Firefox, so that eliminates that it's an internet or Java problem.  I obviously already tried uninstalling and reinstalling SK.

Not really sure what to try next and I don't know what the problem is, but it must be either a problem with SK or an anti-virus or firewall blocking it's access to loading the game (seems less likely to me and I haven't changed my anti-virus or firewall settings in forever).

IRC still works, only problem is actually loading the login page of rs.
