You mean "au naturel"?

If you want to correct someone, please do so correctly.

you beat me to it. Also, "al naturale" was perfect italian.

meet the russian popeye with synthol arms in a slap contest

S&M at 28 wins

rockfist wrote:No synthol is not at all like Botox. It’s straight up poison that causes massive inflammation in muscle tissue and cartoonish (and not natural looking) muscles that are not any stronger than before. Gear does not cause inflammation and does make you stronger.

wait... so you do isolation forearm training with your gear? If you do it too much, then you could get inflammation?
am i getting this right?
this is why i never wanted my own gear. too much maintenance and too much risk.

I've never done forearm training...its an utter waste of time.

I haven't taken gear for over a decade.

I have some of my own equipment, Texas Deadlift bar, and some large dumbbells (insert joke here) I keep at the gym where I train.

really? you may be the first guy i have ever known that doesn't do isolation forearm training.
some of your own equipment? was there an accident?
since you no longer take gear, do you give it to other people?

i just have so many questions about all this

I am in the gym 6 days a week and I compete. I do not do any forearm isolation work.

okay. i give up. i just cant anymore.
it appears i am going to have to help the odd fellows out here.

let me rephrase.

most guys i know masturbate when alone (in isolation) - good forearm exercise, no?
having only some of your equipment? did you lose a testicle? was it a bike accident? is this where the name "odd fellow" comes from?
i will elect not to translate the comment about taking/giving gear, as i believe i am allowed to not have to translate everything.

i knew what you were talking about emily x

That could explain my carpal tunnel

S&M need 1 more win to make it official. Likely result is 32-29 or 33-28. Well played S&M, congrats on the cup!

Great war and some gut-check games both sides experienced ...
EW had some bad breaks and crazy dice against him and was always classy and respectful.
Props my man...prob 33-34 wins I think

Congratulations to S&M.
