Get a rowing machine much better work out

stationary!

 

[Southieinnc]

Noatradmus is that you?


My only point is rowing machines work out 86% of your muscle. if you just want to ride a bike cool, if you are looking for a workout rowing machines are a great option

Certainly are.
When I was traiing, I crossed-trained before the term existed.
I swam a mile every day.
Ran 5 miles 3 days a week.
Rode bicycle every day - 5-25 miles
Lifted weights rarely. I was self guided and did not see the value.
I could run all day and I could throw king kong over a fence.
I was a pro-motocrosser and my biggest mistake was not riding my racing motorcyckle every day. Big handicap!
I rode other motorcycles and it was as effective as a 1'2 speed football practice.
How you practice is how you race! (sound familiar?)

stationary!

Not when you are rowing

In a real boat? OK but not a rowing machine.......

Stationary implies no movement, you are moving on a rowing machine

 

[Southieinnc]

Stationary implies no movement, you are moving on a rowing machine

That's really thick.
If you are rowing in a rowboat you are going somewhere else.
If you are rowing in a rowing machine, you'll finish in the same room you started and "moved" in.

If you sit perfectly still, your heart and lungs will be "moving" and you'll burn calories - not many unless you're jacking off!

The machine is stationary your body is most assuredly in motion. This is not debatable

 

[Yankee Traveler]

Do you wear those faggy little wanna be Tour De France clothes?

Are you judging?

 

[YankeeRebel]

Are you judging?

No. Just asking a question. He can wear faggy clothes if he wants.

You are being obtuse! I'm out on this.

 

[YankeeRebel]

Not really! Just stating the fact that a body in motion cannot possibly be stationary. If you can't grasp that, that's on you.

When I was in NH, I was dieting and driving to Planet Fitness everyday. I did 3000 steps on the stepper, 200 hundred sit ups with 75 lb resistance, 200 back presses, worked up to 200 leg presses of 660 lbs. Then did six isometric machines with 100 reps on each. I also walked 2 miles every other day in temps anywhere from -5 to 50. Then I went to Panama City for two months and just walked every day.

I haven't walked here for the past five days. It's been 88 by the time I get up, Make the bed, do my meds, get my sneakers on. It's been a year and I still haven't quite adjusted to the heat. Playing golf in the 90s is totally out of the question.

It's in motion without going anywhere.
Like some conversations.

LMAO yep, just like that.

Yet industry wide we refer to them as stationary. Even the latest and greatest Peleton that whisk you away to the Alps. At the end of the day your still in your basement.

Took off Friday with the wife and another couple we know.
Drove up to Frankfort KY. First stopped at Buffalo Trace and we each bought a bottle of Blanton's, the days "special".
Then we drove to Four Roses and did a tasting there. From Four Roses we drove to Woodford Reserve and did a tasting there.
That about did in the day so we hit the Hotel and then dinner. We hung out around the patio for a bit then went downtown Frankfort and listened to some live music in the square, some local that made it fairly high up on one of those talent shows. She was pretty good. Saturday brought another trip to Buffalo Trace after finding out E.H. Taylor was the special of the day.
We got there at 9:00, to see there was an hour and a half line already. Talking to Ralph at the gate, he said yeah, come back in two hours, there will be no line and they will still have the Taylor. He was right.
On Ralphs advice, we went to the Glenn Creek Distillery, which is the former Old Crow site. One of the master distillers from the old days evidently comes by to help them make whiskey to the "old" Old Crow" top shelf standard, not the new bottom shelf standard. The name is owned by...Beam?...so the cannot call it Old Crow. They are a small distiller, just recently getting to a barrel a day production.
From there, Castle and Key Distillery and then back to Buffalo Trace for the Taylor.
Walked around there a bit, my wife and I have done the tour twice already, and then headed to Bardstown.
Outside of Bardstown, Loretto actually, is where Maker's Mark is distilled. Beautiful grounds. Just Beautiful country.
We wanted to do Heaven Hill and 1792 but it was time to eat, and that brought us to almost 5:00, which is when they all close.

We will head back up in early October for a similar trip, but we will plan better. When my wife and I did it the first time it was at a lull period and we were able to walk in and by tours. Summer and fall are booked as much as 3 months out so we were not able to do any tours, only tastings.

For me, Designated Driver, I love the combination of art and science that goes into the processes as well as the history of the craft and bourbon in general. The entire industry is so interwoven with different families and different distilleries being bought, sold, abandoned and restarted by former employees, family members etc...It's just great.

I hear some of the product is good too.

Buffalo Trace, Their shit is hard to come by anywhere, including their gift shop. They rotate Blanton's, E.H. Taylor, Eagle Rare and Weller Reserve as a daily special and may sell out at anytime. They only post what is available that day so you cannot plan around what will or will not be sold. Each person is only allowed to buy one bottle of their daily special every 90 days. We each bough a Blanton's Friday and a Taylors Saturday.

Four Roses has all four of their main products for sale in their gift shop three of which I generally see in liquor stores.

Woodford Reserve has all of their main products for sale in their gift shop. The best, Double Oaked I'm told, is well liked and readily available everywhere. My wife did just get a bottle of Distillers Choice, which was not available there.

Glenn Creek had everything onsite.

Castle and Key has all of theirs from what I could tell, but a two bottle limit.

Makers had a few that were only available at their gift shop, as well as some that are only available through "Select Distributors" in addition to the regular Maker's and Maker's 46. These included some Single Barrels and some cask strength. There you also get to dip you own bottle in the red wax.

Yeah.. uhm no.

She is beautiful. Picture Farrah Fawcett with big tits.

And from there...a Beula Ballbricker comparison would be kind.

I love how every one of them does something different.
A second new charred oak barrel vs a new charred french oak barrel, vs a toasted barrel, vs original barrel with new toasted staves added and aged longer vs aged longer in a port barrel vs toasted maple...the possibilities are staggering.
