One client gave me an Under Armor Hoodie ($45), and the other gift I received was a straight-up $100 bill. I’m completely flabbergasted and grateful for both gifts. Whatever you decide, your PT will appreciate it.

Thank you Lanny. Hey we should plan on a meet together sometime. Your a 105? Nice looking set. For me it’s feeling pretty good making four plates more routine in my training

Yep what Daniella said. IPF/USAPL you have a minute. If your setup is lengthy, don’t wait to chalk up when it’s your turn.

I doubt you do know the difference. But hey, I’m not the one who goes to a gym and finds ways to be miserable. Not that I’m criticizing. We all need hobbies.

Quickly? Good lighting and the right mix of filters.

It’s threads like these that reminds me why I either lift at home or at gyms without genpop. SMH (That gets me too.)

Well thank you for the arm chair psychology. I bet, in addition to this mind reading feat, you’re an amazingly qualified brain surgeon too.

Just a guess, but all the extra carbs in the beer you were consuming was aiding in your recovery and now that you removed them, you are in a greater calorie deficit. Add the missing calories back in by other sources and see how you feel and pass me your unwanted beers.

That’s awesome. Where should these guys grunt instead? Oh I know, perhaps when they at the library or church — maybe during a funeral — because a gym isn’t the place to exert yourself apparently.

I’m not an athlete. I’m a powerlifter.

Belts and wraps don’t eliminate the water that makes you fluffy in those areas from your body,, it only pushes it away temporarily.

You have abs. Eat more. Train, not exercise.

Niether. Crossfit is for the weak and is a cult, and MMA doesn't do something something, so the best alternative is a Planet Fitness membership.

So about two months ago, I decided to return to the skunkworks and retool the squat (again x4) for reasons I won’t go over again here. This time really commit to the low bar pattern and pick a method to do it. (Olympic style vs. Starting Strength method.) I started with the bar and slowly added weight to build the back and…

Not sure what your asking in the first part, but the second part, yes start lifting now. Maintaining as much muscle )lean body mass) is of utmost importance. Lose too muscle and you’ll slow your metabolism and ultimately sabotage yourself.

Tony Little Glider, Ab Circle, and a shake weight

Barbell or dumbbell floor presses - you don't need a spotter for those.

I think my home gym is so awesome that I should be charging myself a monthly membership.

If you want to learn proper, safe, deadlifting firm I'd run the Starting Strength program over the Stronglifts program. Starting Strength has YouTube videos, accompanying "textbooks", an app, coaching certificates with practicing certified strength coaches in its methods and a methodology from an actual coach and not some…

Could be in a recomp. Have you ever monitored your body composition? This will tell you the ratio of lean body mass (LBM) to fat mass.

Who thinks up these things? SMH

Running the program just on squats currently as I am retraining squat to low bar and according to Starting Strength performance standards. Training squats now 3 times a week, linear progression, so far progress is steady. SS is easy to run.

Recovery and adaptation rates and how intense the session was, determine how frequent a person can train. These rates are different for how advanced the trainee is.

I came here to this post thinking there would be coffee served :s :s
