  1. I read that the nervous system can be trained to lift heavy weights instead of muscle, is this true?
  2. Can a person be muscular on the inside but the outer appearance of the body is not muscular? Also I remember when I was a kid in high school and we had rugby game against this other team, at that time weight around 220 pounds, and there was this skinny guy half my size and bony as hell (I could feel it when ever he tackled me) who seemed strong as hell for someone his size. Every time I ran at him he would lift me up with his strength and put me down, I don't know what the hell he was on but he was one hell of a kid. My second question is, why are some people who are skinny really strong for their size when they don't have muscles that show?
  3. Based on the previous answers, I think various forms of running is the best type of workout for the heart muscle. Any other type of movement should be good for anything else you desire in terms of health.
  4. Yes good idea, a hairy strong and muscular spouse. That should kick things off.
  5. Can mutations that are able to be handed down to your offspring be caused by environmental factors and your lifestyle? Can you somehow cause mutations (which are favorable to you) to occur in your body?
  6. What is the strongest animal of prey, I have Googled this but it only shows birds of prey. What about the animals?
  7. Ok you proven me wrong, thanks for the information.
  8. I thought Christianity was the foundation of modern society and culture as we know it. Well for white man since it is through the Bible/Christianity that laws were established.
  9. Yeah I read that Polynesians have a gene that allows them to store lots of fat so when they go on ocean journey they don't starve.
  10. Is ancient Greek history as grand as movies portray to be? The whole warrior culture thing, the Spartans and the Myrmidons from Homers Iliad as well as other stuff I have no idea about. There is a new game that came out called Assassins Creed: Odyssey and it has a lot of this warrior stuff and people wearing warrior clothing and all that stuff, lots of fighting lots of sailing. My question is really, is ancient Greece really "all that"? Also how comes Greeks now days are not not that good at sports if they had such a culture, Polynesians also had a warrior culture in the past and they are some of the most successful sports people.
  11. My philosophy in life is to survive. Well that is how I have lived most of my life anyway, simply trying to survive and enjoy it. I haven't lived up to the standards of my belief system.
  12. Who were the first Polynesians and where did they come from? One article says it was Tonga then on Wikipedia it says most scholars lean more towards Samoa. Who is the original Polynesians and where did they come from?
  13. The universe doesn't enforce the rules we model. We only model our rules and math to how we perceive the universe. We basically enforce our rules on the universe.
  14. I am wondering if the stuff that I do in this life that causes epigenetic changes to occur in my body will be passed down to my offspring. Also I am wondering if working out and eating lots of nutrient dense food will help my offspring in terms of epigenetic changes. thank you in advance.
  15. I read somewhere that humans only activate 30% of their muscles where as other animals like Chimpanzee have 100% activated which is why they are very strong pound for pound compared to humans. How to active my muscle fibers?
  16. Can you dumb that down for a layman? What does that mean exactly in relation to my thread?
  17. I am wondering how many of you who thumbs down my answers wanna sort this outside after a couple beers and see where you end up after.
  18. Do something no one has done before or find improvements to things such as in the fields of: Art, Science, Invention/Engineering, Fashion etc I would take invention as the best one cause you could always sell it to a company with out buying a patent. And you will become rich and famous for it if your invention is a ground breaking one. That is just an idea from me I am not really an expert on this cause in real life I am a nobody.
  19. Maybe that is a topic up for discussion. Me and my friends talk about masturbation all the time, we don't consider it private. That is subjective view. And yes I believe there is some medical interest in it for me as well so if Staff/Admin could move this question to correct place that would be awesome.
  20. Translation: If I answer as much questions as I can then I am a Certified Genius of ScienceForums and deserve a medal of honor. With Staff applications still pending.
  21. If you can't behave like an adult about it I suggest you yourself grow up. There is nothing immature about this, this is a serious thread. My intent is pure curiosity.
  22. My question is do you masturbate? I am doing a survey on this forum to get an idea of who masturbates and who does not masturbate. I think we can all be mature about it as we are mostly adults and can be serious about such topic and leave out the baggage that sometimes people associate masturbation with.
  23. That would be awesome to sacrifice a little brain power for physical power.
