T-Nation: Chris, what’s your advice for curing the average obese person’s problem?

Shugart: I think men should just withhold cock. Women should withhold the vag, too.

Stop having sex with fat people and they’ll snap out of it and lose some damn weight. They don’t because, for some strange reason, people still have sex with them. We need IQ tests before having children and we need body fat tests before being allowed to practice making children. I’m kidding. But not really.

MyProtein.co.uk must be loving me with all the stuff I keep ordering from them. LOL and these photos don’t even show my protein formulas :D

I made the really really really bad mistake of thinking I was well enough to go to the gym this morning. I mulled it over while standing at the door ready to leave but decided that if I was sick I could just stop.

I started off on the rowing machine and felt pretty much fine, so I carried on for about 15 minutes before moving onto another machine. Thats when I suddenly started feeling really really sick. I just couldn’t focus on anything and the whole room was spinning so fast. The gym wasn’t that full so I plonked myself on one of the machines and just sat there waiting for the dizziness to pass, but after about a minute I started feeling nauseous. I made my way back to the changing room and I honestly thought I was either going to pass out or puke in the middle of the hall.

It took a good 15 minutes of sitting with my head in my hands before I started feeling well enough to have a shower and make my way to work. I wish I had just stayed in bed this morning. I think I’ll pass on the gym for a few more days yet.

The moral of this story is if you have to think about whether your well enough to go to the gym then you probably aren’t. Getting better is every much a part of living a healthy lifestyle as is going to the gym. So don’t risk putting your training even further back by jumping the “feeling better” gun.
