Stronglifts with permanent shoulder injury
I started them but something (snapping and pain) tells me I should lay off that shoulder. Looking for advice, opinions, whatever you have. Is there a replacement lift that doesn't require over the head/shoulder.

I worked out upper body yesterday. Now I am…

Duathlon, 5/5/13. Should I or shouldn't I?
I really need some opinions, and honest ones. I run, no biggie with that part. I do not have a bike, nor have I had one in about 20 years.

Going over cal's question-
So, I don't know if this is going to sounds stupid or even make sense, but I'll ask anyway. Let's pretend I am 100 calories over in carbs but am low on protein and my total calorie for the day is under.

Yeah, I could use google-shmoogle but it's just easier this way. That inner thigh muscle? what is that called? what are the exercises that make it larger/stronger? Does running make it larger? (I ask cause I, um, ran today and it seemed to be chaffing)

Please don't hate me that I am asking this question-
I know all the information is on here, somewhere. I know that if you do your numbers you can find out. My problem is that I have a terrible time with numbers, I get easily confused (for medical reasons), and I am about to have a breakdown cause I feel like I am a total idiot. I cannot figure out what my calorie intake is…

Trying to get protein but have allergies- frustrated
I have a lot of allergies. Just a few- Nuts, Soy, Corn, lactose intolerant. I cannot take whey protein or soy. Lets just say I would like to try to avoid animal products (I am vegetarian, but lets just pretend) Where the heck would I find enough protein? I need ideas. I cook, so any ideas would be possible. Oh, I also like…
