In fairness to the youngster, the ball bounced up and was there to be won. He just went the wrong way about going in to try and win it. It's inexperience more than anything. Ref mustn't have seen it because he didn't even blow for a foul. Can't be good for the player though, looks very painful and he's very lucky if he comes away from that with his leg intact.

Happy Birthday to Haden, formally Headless Haden! Yes, to me, you never truly found your head. Enjoy the pleasantries, because you're going down in the league, bro.

Leg day, done. Am tired. Body sleep. Food eat then bed soon.

Eating is wonderful. That one "thing" (food) is varied and encompasses so many different tastes, flavours, colours, appearances, etc. I just ate nachos with spiced chicken topped with cheese and salsa and with some refried beans to accompany it. Was gorgeous. I swear I saw God.

That article was terrifying. He's spent my entire lifetime in a box. Not entirely sure if the punishment fits the crime in this case.

I'd be doing it moar for ZombiU more than anything. :p Seriously want that bitch.

Some of the deals that ASDA are doing are excellent. Basically, you could get WiiU+Nintendoland+Sonic for £260 and THEN get ZombiU from Amazon for £31. Which means that getting a 32gb WiiU with Nintendoland, with ZombiU and with Sonic Racing will cost you £291. Seriously tempted. That's a great deal, imo.

There's positives and negatives doing that for a longer period of time. Looking at that routine, it's good for your legs and back, but there's not really enough of a shoulder or chest workout there. I'd incorporate the bench/chest press into there and probably shoulder press, too. The plus side is that you're hitting your legs and back more than one time a week, which will see them get stronger relatively quickly. Here's a list of the exercises for each body part: Legs - Squats, leg press, hamstring curls, calve raises (essential if you have uber tiny calves) Shoulders - shoulder/military press, upright rows, front raises, side raises, shrugs. Back - deadlifts (any variation), lateral pulldowns, bent over rows (LOVE this), pull-ups (some might keep deadlifts for leg day since it works the arse and hamstrings) Chest - flat bench press, incline bench press, decline bench press, cable cross-overs/dumbbell flies. Arms - dumbbell/barbell curls (biceps), hammer curls (bicep), forearm curls/reverse barbell curl (very good for forearm strength), tricep kickbacks, skullcrushers (tricep), dips (tricep), tricep pushdowns. The ones that I've bolded are the ones that are pretty much essential to what you want to do. I've underlined the additional exercises that will also help you with strength gaining, but are not quite as important as the bolded ones. You want to basically make sure that you hit the bolded ones, you could also possibly do some of the others in rotation. So, some weeks you could do front raises, some days you could do shrugs. (I shrug about 2/3 times a week at the moment as it's a lagging body part) How did you find it doing the same exercises 3 days a week? Did you prefer that or would you rather have a different routine for each time you exercise? There's benefits of both, but personally I'd struggle trying to do deadlifts, squats, benching and shoulder pressing on the same day three times a week. Here's roughly what Tom Hardy did to get into shape for Warrior. So, he was squatting and deadlifting about twice a week. He's hitting the chest, shoulders, backs and legs about twice a week but it's not really the same exercise twice, as they are different variations.

It's good that your trainer was showing you those particular exercises, especially the squats and deadlifts. I've seen trainer cop-out in the past and only show machine-related exercises. :p It really varies. What was your split like for those six-weeks? Did you have one session a week or was it more like 2 or 3? A typical 4-day-a-week routine would be like the one I posted above, spending a day focusing on each part. It can get more complicated and complex than that, depending on what you want to achieve. Some people will squat and deadlift on the same day, for example, or squat and shoulder press. Chest day again yesterday. 75kg for two sets of 4 reps. Couldn't get that elusive 5th rep. My tris were still a tiny bit saw from a few days before. I've broken down that wall now. It really shows how you need to exercise consistently in order to improve. My job made it almost impossibly before and I'd be lucky if I could bench for 3 weeks consecutively.

A bit of a scrappy game, but important 3 points. City's loss surely puts it too far beyond their reach.

Probably the best I've seen Wales play in a long while. England weren't very good, they didn't get anywhere near stopping those tries. They didn't look dangerous enough. I'm sure if the game were still going on now or for another hour, England wouldn't have added any more points.

It's too late, your words have cut me like a knife. Definitely not a cave, or anywhere in the valleys. It shouldn't even count as Wales. It's just past the border.

It has its benefits and draw-backs. Personally, food is just too nice for me to do without. When dinnertime comes (Suck it, @Rummy), I never think of it as being a time for nutrition and giving my body the nutrients it needs. I'm hungry and I want some yummy food. Could I go without pastas, lasagnas, pizzas, chicken, tuna, potatoes, rice, bread, milk, eggs (scrambled, poached, fried, boiled, omelettes), yoghurt and so on? No way. I can see the benefit for people who are ill or old and perhaps can't go out and do a ton of food shopping and cooking. But, your life should never be too busy that you don't have time to eat. In my opinion, that should be a wakeup call that something is wrong with your life.

Good stuff. Get this out early, then quickly put Monster on a racer for either the WiiU or 3DS. Orrrr, maybe an all new platformer. Pleased that this isn't one of those games that will takes moooonths to come out. Monster have better things to do with their time.

On the subject of protein shakes: I take one in the morning and one definitely after workouts. Depending on how I feel, I may have one before a workout, too. The traditional type of workouts you'll be given will be something along the lines of: Monday: Chest Wednesday: Back Friday: Shoulders Then using one of the other days for legs. It really depends on what you want to do. If you're aiming to add a bit of strength to your body, then looking at the four main compound exercises of: Bench Press/Chest Press, Deadlift, Shoulder Press/Military Press, Squats. They are very technical exercises, mind. Particularly the deadlifts and the squats. I wouldn't advise you try those by yourself straight away. If you can, enlist the help of somebody to teach you how those exercises work. If you didn't want to go down that route, there's your typical machines that you'll find in the gym to assist you. There's usually a machine to help you with a chest press (so, instead of being lying flat, you'll be sat upright and pushing the weight away from you) and a seated shoulder press. There's your everyday leg press machines, too. For back, a lat pulldown (also try to do pullups if you can): That's what the pulldown looks like. What has your trainer been doing with you for your routine?

My Mum and her family come from the North. As a result, I've always been taught it was breakfast, dinner and tea. Even then, when growing up in Wales, we referred to dinnertime as dinnertime, not this lunchtime bollocks. It's only when moving to Brighton and then Bournemouth that I've heard people call the three main meals Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. Elevenses? Supper? Afternoon tea? My meals go: Breakfast Snack Dinner Snack Tea Snack Calories for muscles!

Shoulders, Tris and Traps tonight. Omega-tired. I have football club tomorrow and squash on Saturday, too. Rest, not even once.

Yeah, away goals shouldn't really matter after extra-time. The match has pretty much gone into sudden death at that point. I miss golden goal.

Rafa has a face that you just want to punch. Twice.

I laughed at Spurs going through on away goals, after we were having a discussion on here about it. Away goals in extra time is a bit shit, tbh.

What about calling color "colour"?

No, we're not because it doesn't exist.

The fans are getting screwed out of the game. 97 quid for a ticket. It's a fucking joke! That's before petrol and travel expenses.

Breakfast. Dinner. Tea. Suck it, bitches. What did you call dinner ladies at your school? Lunch ladies?

You are one sexy bitch, Ramar.
