  1. This is a long shot, but does anybody have a lead on where to get dumbbells right now?  They are basically non-existent at stores and people are selling them for like $100 for the individual weights on craigslist.  

    Not going to a gym has been weird, as I have been regularly using a gym at least 2x a week for 12 years or so.  I have had to cut sugar and flour out of my diet completely since I gained a good amount of weight between March and June.  I'm doing pretty good right now with jogging and insanity/HIIT indoors, but I am still missing some strength training I don't get with just pull-ups or pushups.  Just a set of 20 or 25 lb dumbbells would allow me to do some weighted squats and lunges.  I have resistance bands but those are pretty limited.

     

  2. Once again, not many people to like on this crew.  The obviously pre-arranged fake interview and hiring of the new chef is really putting me off for future seasons.

    Sandy is terrible, Hannah is terrible and likely fired, Jess is worthless, Malia may be a Bravo puppet at this point, Pete was so bad he's not even allowed to speak on camera any more.

    Rob was ok at first, but him and Jess together are really cringey and gross.  

    Alex seems fine.  He is going hard after Bugs which is probably going to be annoying af in an episode or two.

    Hopefully Kiko bounces back from this, as he was set up to fail and was pulling it off up until the vegan crew destroyed his confidence.

    Watching season 1 now and half the people didn't make it a week.  The cop was scared shitless that he was going to be eaten by something.

    That was crazy.  When he got there, he compared his job to living in the wilderness because he has to work with "wild animals" all the time.  Then he saw some bears or heard some wolves or whatever and immediately called for rescue because he was terrified and didn't have his sidearm.

    I think there was another guy that season that said he felt naked without his guns, and he tapped out after a night or two of hearing wolves growling and howling.

    I was very impressed with one of the girls in season 6, can’t remember her name.  initially thought she was annoying as shit and was actively rooting against her.  and she cut herself, stabbed herself, almost burned down her shelter, got bitten by a squirrel, and just seemed to do a lot of stupid stuff.  but I’ll be damned if she wasn’t tougher than a boiled owl and just simply would not quit.  ultimately they pulled her for losing too much weight.  

    Nikki, goddamn she would have been next level insane had she stayed out there longer.  The crew would have rolled up to a squirrel tea party or some shit.

    Just started watching S1, about 4 eps in. I'm a fan of survival shows and this reminds me a lot of Survivorman except most of these guys are pussies.

    Compared to the people on Season 6, yeah a few of them were super lame and complained/cried a lot or went home in the first couple of days.

    Thought I was going to be a 1 post hero, but here we are... to be able to interact with my unedited opinion on her buffoonery would be something I put full support behind.
