To clarify, concrete is strong under compression but cracks easily in tension. Adding steel reinforcement (rebar) protects against a more sudden, brittle failure (since steel is a high-strength, ductile material). Another benefit is that the steel inside the concrete casing is protected from both corrosion and high temperatures.
mmm hmmmm…well I really don’t know how to take that , so I think I’m just gon let it go…I’m not “skinny” though…like you’d be more likelt to look and think “health” …or fit..or stength…than bones…and proportinately to rest of my body, my arms are decent…

bout to go food shopping i have cub back on what type of foods i eat been eatin more thorugh out the day but what should i put on my grocery list
Quick Warning
A quick note of warning. I was about 260 lbs and wanted to get back into shape. I cut back on the calories to about 1200 per day. I worked out 6 days a week. First day, cardio, 2nd day strength training, etc. After 60 days I was feeling great about myself. My weight had dropped to 227.
When I started, I could hardly do ten push ups. After about 60 days, as a part of the strength training, I was doing four sets of push ups. First set 20 push ups with my feet on the couch pushing up off the ground. Second and third set were similar. 4th set I maxed. I got out 50 push ups. I was beginning to feel invincible.
The next morning when I got up and relieved myself, I stretched my arm forward to turn on the faucet. Incredible pain shot threw arm. I screwed up something in my shoulder, still don’t know exactly what.
That was over six months ago. My shoulder still bothers me. I’m slowly trying to rehab it. A fair amount of the weight has crept back on.
Moral of the story - if you haven’t been in shape for a while, take it slowly. You don’t need to get your High School or college body back in a day.
Good luck.

if you can do low salt…pick up some small goos..like ham and salami etc

PS. for Danos’ morale…maybe stretch a bit more, don’t forget your cool downs and always make sure you’re doing the exercise correctly
cheers
