It Looks Like Maybe Mathew Stafford Has Put on a Few Pounds
Doughy? Is that the best way to describe oft-injured Detroit Lions’ QB Matt Stafford in this photo, purportedly taken recently? Stafford reminds me of a chubbier Tom Brady … back when Brady partook in the NFL combine.
If you read this site, you know we’re fans of Stafford’s work – he’s a solid interview – and this gutty performance was one of the greatest moments of the 2009 NFL season.
In Stafford’s defense, perhaps the farmer’s tan is a sign he’s been tossing the football around on a practice field recently. Also, nice job with the lady friend there, Mr. Stafford. That’s a body. [via Busted Coverage]

But Stafford has been injury-plagued his first 2 years while JaMarcus was plagued by baconators.

July 19th, 2011 at 11:30 AM
BFFredo – Muscle mass has more volume than fat, so persons who add muscle while losing weight tend to stay at the same level or actually gain weight. So while you’ve possibly only lost 10 pounds, you could have cut a decent amount of body fat percentage and replaced it with muscle.

carbs are fine as long as you work out. and i only used to cut carbs when i was trying to lose weight as they’re necessary to build muscle (cant do both at the same time…no matter what commercial says otherwise).
as for carbs – whole grain bread, rice and pastas. sweet potatoes. oatmeal. shit like that.
July 19th, 2011 at 11:33 AM
Stafford doesn’t look fat either… maybe in the face a little bit… but he just seems like a big dude. He could work out 6 hours a day and never look like Brady Quinn.
July 19th, 2011 at 11:34 AM
i fluctuate like crazy. i went thru a phase from last summer to about march where i was cooking super rich food all the time and eating like a pig. i never got “fat” fat, but i def put on some weight.
didnt realize until i went to the doctor in march how much i gained. i was 240…freaked me out cuz that meant i gained half of the weight i lost back. now im back down to my natural weight of around 200-210…anything more than that and i look emaciated.
July 19th, 2011 at 11:35 AM
You need carbs for energy. Complex carbs are not a no-no: brown rice, oatmeal, pasta, grains. Simple cards like candy, chocolate, alcohol, fast food are what kill you. But take carbs in moderation. And, as spencer has done, avoid them late in the day because your body won’t break them down (bc you’re probably resting) and thus they’ll be stored as fat.
July 19th, 2011 at 11:36 AM
What do y’all recommend eating if carbs are a no-no?
I will never buy into carbs being a no-no. You need them for exercise. No-no on carbs is for fat middle aged moms that want to lose weight without actually doing anything. How soon we forget that the Atkin’s Diet was a big fraud.

Having just gotten back from Europe, I worked out at a gym for the first time in 11 months on Friday. I did chest and tri and when I tried to do the same thing on Monday to get back to my old routine, I was too sore to do chest, so I did back and bi. I’m in a lot of pain right now.

Yeah, if you drink pop go diet or zero, but don’t do it much. Maybe a can or two a week. The “fake sugar” put in diet sodas trick your body and actually make it crave real sugar. I don’t drink much diet pop, but when I do, I notice later in the day I crave sugar. No lie.

July 19th, 2011 at 11:45 AM
Then buy trail mix. Best thing to keep in your desk is something like that because the peanuts, cashews or whatever else provide protein. I keep beef jerky in my desk, too.
The reason I stay thin is of course my metabolism but I also don’t have a sweet tooth. I have a salt tooth. Rarely do I eat candy, maybe once a week. I’ve managed to somehow kick my potato chip habit for the most part. I eat like 4 times a day, smaller portions. My flaw is not eating breakfast all the time.

TBL, plank and side plank are great. And this will sound crazy but 8 minute abs is actually a decent workout. I would do it twice in a row, however, to really get something out of it.

I go to the gym at least 5 – 6 nights a week.. .my biggest obstacle is my lack of energy. I’m motivated to get there… it’s just some days I’m fucking exhausted and don’t really feel like I get a good workout in. That’s an even shittier feeling than not going at all, IMO.

The best thing you can do is cardio. Distance and sprint interval running, elliptical, bike. High rep sets of low weight could also get your heart pumping and burning calories.

when i was at around 5-6% bodyfat at 220, i ate bacon every morning and steak was my main protein. also, has anyone actually ever read the atkins diet book? carbohydrate intake is tiered, not eliminated.
What was your cholesterol? The Atkins diet fucked up a lot of people. Of course, most were older and not in shape anyway. You were a young buck.

best workout ive had in a long while was this bikram yoga class i took last week. my good god…i was more sore than after squat/deadlift day.

Have you ever tried supplements like N.O.-XPlode? You’ll want to rip bumpers off of cars and subsequently make out with chicks.

The distance/sprint running was all I did back in high school and college. Also need to find a gym membership that isn’t going to cost an arm and a leg.
/NJ sucks…used to have a $30/mo membership at LA Fit

No… I’ll have to check it out… I just started taking some creatine shakes as well… we’ll see how that goes.

DO NOT TAKE NO XPLODE.

Try Insanity. It’ll melt off.

My gym membership costs $15. It’s not one of those fancy places. It’s in a strip mall and doesn’t have a salt water pool or sauna, but it’s got everything you need. Good for the wallet… the eye candy ratio suffers a bit though.

We should all also keep in mind that heredity/genes play a big role in our physique. Some of us can’t gain or lose like we’d like, not because we aren’t busting ass in the gym and eating right, but because we’re handcuffed to our family tree.

Fifty percent of losing weight is diet.
What is the other 10%?

I’ve been doing sculling (rowing) all summer, which I had never done before. That shit kills your entire body, and its a hell of a lot harder than it looks.

i used to envy that my sister got my dad’s metabolism and couldn’t gain weight if she tried…but it’s great being able to gain weight without having to stuff my face with 7,500 calories.
July 19th, 2011 at 11:55 AM
in a boat or on a rowing machine?
July 19th, 2011 at 11:56 AM
All this talk has my belly rumbling. It’s time to eat.

That’s nuts… physics is fascinating sometimes. And it’s always over my head.
July 19th, 2011 at 12:01 PM
same here, almost to a T. although the last two days I’ve had shit to do in the morning so I’ve gone a tad later and there were a few decent chicks in there. I just can’t do the after work crowd. too many douches and too many people.
July 19th, 2011 at 12:02 PM

Yeah… I wait until they clear out… go from about 830 – 930.
July 19th, 2011 at 12:04 PM
going to the gym between 10-2 is the best…that’s when all the ladies come out since they won’t get eye fucked by 90% of the gym.
July 19th, 2011 at 12:09 PM
what’s wrong with No Explode? I used to take that shit all the time. Felt like I could run through a brick wall and tackle a Buick. I haven’t touched that or any of those workout pills in probably four or five years…

I’m slowly getting back to the gym with the wife. We got her a personal diet/exercise guy who’s really good at motivating her.

Tipped a boat last night and went for a swim, Charles river doesnt taste good. The university I work at offers summer instruction/recreation classes.

a) it’s expensive
b) gives you the thundershits and increases heart rate, blood pressure and gives a lot of people sleep issues
c) could lead to heart problems and most likely has some sort of long-term health effect. those types of supplements’ long-term effects aren’t known yet, so for all we know, shit could cause all sorts of bad news down the road.
when i took it, squats were risky. i felt like i could poop everywhere at a moment’s notice.
July 19th, 2011 at 12:14 PM
trying so hard right now not to make a joke…

I got an idea how you all can lose all the weight you want. Come mow my yard sometime this week. Heat + Humidity + Yard Work = Heat Stroke. I mean a great body.
July 19th, 2011 at 12:15 PM
nothing worse than getting out of the shower at the gym and smelling/hearing this go down. so fucking gross.
July 19th, 2011 at 12:16 PM
spencer gets it. The worst part about those energy drinks/shakes/supplements is that they’re boost lasts longer than your 1-2 hour workout. I would advise taking the full recommended dosage until you’ve eased into it. You could take it at 5 p.m., hit the gym at 5:30 p.m., and be wide-eyed and ready to hunt some zombies at 1 a.m.

Greeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeat…Well, at least my head didn’t swell up like Barroid.

From the looks of the photo, the Detroit Doughboy is still getting some nice tail.
