Who gained the most weight over the weekend?
I went from 258 to 270. From Friday til last night I gained 12. I did workout pretty hard so some of it's water. But scale wise what did you gain? I'm back down to 264 this morning. I was walking around like Eddie Hall or Brian Shaw all weekend,lol.

Creatine Kinase levels
Heavy workout hi reps for 2-3 hours raised my levels to 488. Normal levels are below 150. Anyone have stories about Rhabdo or high CK levels? I know mine wasn't high enough to cause Rhabdo. Just curious.

The age old "You can't target areas of fat, lifting" BS!
I hear this all the time and am kinda confused or doubtful about the conclusions. Why can't you target a certain area and reduce the fat in that area lifting? My answer is, I call BS on that.

Dude really, c'mon man!
So if a car parks in the middle of two parking spaces, is it wrong to flip the car on it's top and spin it around?

Coming back from total rotator cuff surgery
Tore every tendon in the right shoulder 2013. Doc said he could get me back to 98%, I said I'll take it. 3 hours of surgery, 1.5 years to pain free, 2 years of working out to get back. Next couple of weeks I go for 405 lbs on the bench. So if you have an injury, it will heal and you can come back. Other small injuries just…

50...feeling old but feeling strong.
Not sure if I'll make it back fully but I'm having a blast trying to. 6'3 250 lb. 50 year old. Bad knees, bad back, surgically repaired shoulder. Benched Saturday, hit 315X8, 350X3, 370X1 and tried 385 but weight shifted to one side coming out of the rack to all my energy to bring it back to the groove so it pinned me half…

The need for a workout partner...
It would be nice to find someone close in age, size, strength, determination for a workout partner. Being 48 yrs old doesn't bother me because I love lifting. But I always do better in the gym with someone talking trash or smack talk to get me past the plateau. Someone with goals for kicking *kitten* in something like…

What I think is sad
I see tall teenagers that slump a little, most are the girls. Its like they are trying to make themselves seem shorter. I so wanna tell them to be proud of their height. My son does it a little and I tell them him the same thing. But I have no business telling someone thats not my child to stand tall. Wish their parents…

Globo gym
I do a lot of strength training, so the gym is where I go. But lately instead of going to crossfit, I would do a wod at the end of strength training. Its funny, now I have other people doing what I do. The same people that hate crossfit too. Its funny how they judge something before they know what it is. I did grace,…

Why are 40+ not active?

Set backs suck!
I have a torn Meniscus in my left knee, gotta get an MRI on the shoulder. Doc says no more squats, running, or lunges after the scope is done. I'm like never again. He says you can but you'll be back to see me again. He says leg press, leg ext and leg curls are okay. Elliptical and rowing for cardio. He did say I could…

Something still in the basement...
As you get older you start to feel is there one more shot at the title, is there something you could still do physically or sports wise that shows a glimmer of what you used to be. Me, yeah its there and its growing again. Theres stuff still in the basement that I gotta get out. That urge to compete. When you go to the gym…

How hard do you push yourself?
I hadn't noticed until lately. No matter what level you are, if you're not on the floor in a pool of sweat and gasping for air. Then do you think you pushed yourself hard enough? I also noticed at my box that the women(not pointing out that women don't push hard enough) get done quicker, not out of breath or sweating. I…
