I forgot how bad the forum gets at this time of year. Expecting some utterly ridiculous threads in the next week or two.

The portions of mince are split into bags of 500g (4kg total). Each bag gets me a dinner and a lunch for work the next day. Then the steaks and chicken I split separately to make as lunches/dinners on the weekend when I don't work so don't have to prep anything in advance.

Speaking of noobs I'm still deadlifting in the squat rack

Just heard to good old typical conversation between two family members about a 91 yr old woman who smokes twenty a day along with having two cream cakes and how this woman is the perfect example of how it's all about genes and it doesn't matter what you eat, drink or smoke at all.

my grandad smoked 2 packs of high tar cigs a day, and drank himself into stupor every night and lived to the ripe old age of 40.

Same argument could be made to a stranger about my granny who is in her mid-80s and smoked 20+ cigarettes a day for 70 years.

However this ignores the fact that she has two older non-smoking sisters who look at least 25 years younger than her.

my ex girlfriend has all grand parents still alive, youngest is late 80's, oldest around 98 ish none of them smoke, rarely drink, all take exercise and eat well.
Genetic freaks.

yeah, I wonder if these smokers had non-smoking twins how fit they would be relatively. Though nictoine is supposed to be good for Alzheimers & Parkinsons.

On these 90 year old 60 smokes a day people.

Someone was telling me recently that recent research indicates it's a generational thing. As in it takes 3 generations for the major ill effects to come into their own.

So the first guys get a pass but are in fact polluting their genes for their grand kids.

I was fixing some eggs at the time so details are sketchy.

Yeah, this is essentially epigenetics in a nutshell.

We are not just what we eat/smoke/do to our bodies.

We are what our grandparents did to themselves aswell.

If you were smoking, eating bad food & working in a hazardous environment and procreated at that time, there's a huge chance your eggs/sperm could be affected giving rise to increased probability of progeny having problems, cancer etc

How did you fix them? More importantly, why did you fix them? The damage is usually irreparable.
