    "Bowling for Columbine"

    I think comparing guns to automobiles or swimming pools is a false analogy. I've heard axeman's argument many times before by others, and I am remain unpersuaded. Guns were conceived and are manufactured with the intent to maim or kill. Guns are a weapon.Cars and swimming pools are not. Webster...

    Trading while trying to lose weight on Atkins

    If you have thick bones the wrist (and ankles) are also thicker meaning your skeletal frame in general is also thicker overall giving "small", "medium" and "large". Another way of saying large frame is 'stocky". Small frame -- "Thin". Medium -- "average" The hands also belie your frame size...

    Trading while trying to lose weight on Atkins

    Wow a 6.5 inch wrist on a man is pretty small but they consider this meduim which is another way of saying average? I don't know... I've read otherwise but I can't recall just where at the moment. In any event that 6.5 to 7.5 range does seem a bit "rangy" but right now I can't give more to...

    Trading while trying to lose weight on Atkins

    If he loses his bodyfat his wrist will dip under 7. That IS smallish. For comparison, Mike Tyson is also about 5'11', with much much less bodyfat -- his wrist measures EIGHT INCHES.

    Trading while trying to lose weight on Atkins

    LOL ahhh you are not serious are you? :) I know a couple very thin guys that bench press more than that, you'd never know it to look at them. The bench press is much about leverage and technique, and less about absolute strength. Generally weightlifters are "stronger" lb for lb as...

    Trading while trying to lose weight on Atkins

    Please don't take offense I certainly don't have the guts to post my pic here. :) However I must be truthful. Look at your hands and wrists. Smallish. Small to medium to be more precise. What does your wrist measure (circumference)? My guess is -- 7 1/4 inches tops. Your wrist will measure...

    Trading while trying to lose weight on Atkins

    You keep referring to 'looks". Looks can be deceiving. The society in which we're raised provides our conceptions of what looks "normal". I personally don't trust society to make this decision for me, do you? That's too arbitrary for me. Why should you carry more than a few % fat on your...

    Trading while trying to lose weight on Atkins

    You may know better than I but I can't believe you actually added 30 lb of muscle to your frame. I mean lean muscle. More likely somewhat less muscle mixed with fat. Often it is hard to tell the difference when we look in mirror. It is possible you did but improbable unless you are some kind of...

    TOO light for what? I disagree --He is small-boned. He could probably lose 50. At 170 he would still have too much fat.
