Most cable comes in 24 fps,
Plasma(I agree Kuro is the best TV on the market) has each frame flash much much faster than 24fps. Each frame fades to black very quickly(fools the eye), providing for the smoothest picture. Plasma TVS although different technology equate to 600 HZ
Unfortunately LCD flicks from frame to frame. When watching a 60 HZ TV your eyes will see quite a bit of blur or "Jitter"(think when you are watching a streaming video on the internet). 120 HZ ads an extra frame in between each frame providing for a smoother picture. 240 HZ(although can be hard to see a difference between 120 and 240) adds 3 frames in between each frame providing for the smoothest picture.
Don't get me wrong, I prefer plasma(deeper blacks, reds) fastest TV on the market, but they wanted to talk LCD's.
And yes you are 100% correct about owning a LED back lit LCD TV. LED has LCD technology, but just lit differently(think strands of x-mas lights instead of 3 fluorescent tubes)
I have no need to lie here? Just trying to help.

I actually saw a Demo done by a Toshiba rep. It showed a Toshiba beside, a sony. When gaming the Sony TV actually doesn't have a proper aspect ratio and cuts off about 2%of the screen. Toshiba does not do this. They showed a demo playing Halo and you could not see where the person was sniping from on a Sony TV. On the Toshiba you could see exactly where the sniper was shooting from(due to the extra 2%). Also when gaming Toshiba realized colors are a lot different than real life colors, therefore making vids look great on your Toshiba hdtv

My Job is selling tvs for a living: 1)Sony is the best, but you must get the right one. The V series and below are junk. The W and Z series are great. All XBR's are the best LCD's on the market http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CategoryDisplay?catalogId=10551&storeId=10151&langId=-1&categoryId=8198552921644628896&N=42949556672)Samsung would be second to Sony. DO NOT buy one of the LED Samsungs as they are only side lit LED's. Therefore the LED's must be too bright to light the whole TV. The effect is everything looks Fluorescent. Instead spend less $$ and buy a series 700 LCD http://www.samsung.com/ca/consumer/detail/detail.do?group=tv&type=tv&subtype=lcd&model_cd=LN52B750U1FXZA3)LG would be third. Best looking LED's on the market(thinnest) and they are not side lit, they are fully back lit therefore not as bright and unrealistic(Samsungs LED). The reason they are cheaper than others is that they manufacture EVERYTHING that goes into the TV. From the paint to the panels to the processing chip. All the other companies buy supplies from the other manufactures(Sony buys all the panels from Samsung). When they manufacture everything they eliminate the middle man, therefore having lower productions costs. But because they manufacture everything they don't have top of the line everything. http://www.lge.com/us/sl80/index.jsp4) Sharp would be forth. They have fallen a lot. Very average TVs 5) Toshiba- Best for gaming. Average for everything else 6) Vizio, just plain suck With every LCD manufacturer they come standard with a 60 hertz speed. The higher end models have 120 HZ. The highest end models come with 240 HZ. DONT buy a 60 HZ TV as they all look like shit. If you can afford it get a 240 HZ(best for high motion Example: sports action movies). If the TV you are looking at doesnt tell you the HZ, that means it is a 60 HZ. Again make sure you get at least 120 HZ. Pioneer had the best PLASMA TV on the market with the KURO technology, but unfortunately couldn't afford to keep making TV's(fucking recession). They sold all of their KURO technology to Panasonic. A Panasonic Z series TV is basically a Pioneer. Hope that help Last get 1080P instead of 720P, the cost differential is worth the extra pixels.

Well Matt T, this is GETBIG, so you know ppl are gonna flame. But you know your doing something right when the best thing that these guys can say is "your kitchen sucks" Looking good as usual. I think good old squatting will help to bring the legs up(not smith machine).
Good Luck

see thats all u really need is cables, people get so caught in having to do extremely heavy weight and free weights to building muscle. You can do it the easy way ie cables, or the hard way with heavy free weights, and destroy your joints in the process.
How many Mr O's used just cables to win the O? Stop trying to justify working out like a girl Matt.

Matt T is a nice guy. I use too work out at Mawson(where Matt goes) and he seemed very laid back. I would usually talk about the IFBB shows with him because nobody else knows about that sorta shit. I haven't worked out at Mawsons in about a year, but when I did, I was shocked at how many cables and machines you used, instead of free weights. It seems like that method works for your upper body, but not lower. I think for lower body it might help to get back to the basics(free weight squats, SLD). Seriously though, dudes arms look unreal in person when he is training them.
If you have trained your training style in the last year or so, sorry for the redundant advice.
