FFFFFUUUUU turned up at the gym without my shorts!
Evening gym session it is then, it's going to be jam packed
What were you wearing?
What were you wearing?
My birthday suit of course
I had my trackies on, and normally change into my shorts when I get there. Far too cold to be walking about in shorts.

Dont the trackies pass the squat test?
Do you not have a step anywhere? stairs etc?
But yes, train through doms...What routine are you doing? A three day split or other? DOMS are only natural, they will eventually even out a bit more after the first few weeks just by training continuously.
Mmmmmmno, not yet anyway, maybe when your ronnie coleman or Arnold
When I say to not train 7 days, I mean weight train, things like cardio etc are a tad different coupled with weight training. However it's good to have a rest day/sMy birthday suit of course

Meh, some people say its bad to train 7 days a week others say it doesn't affect them much.
I try and train at least once a day, but not always weights. At the moment I try and do my 4 day split then a day of cardio and back to 4 day split.
Some people will disagree with it, but these are the biggest gains I've seen in ages. So I'll stick to it till I stop seeing gains.
It's all down to how your body grows.
I balance it with my life style. I think lifting gives me the motivation to make it through the week, as I really looking forward to each session. But by the power of grayskull do I need my lie ins on a weekend, and enjoy relaxing!
....He doesn't like sweating in his trackies...but doesn't like walking about in the cold in shorts
About it really, I walked to the last meet in shorts...I swear my manhood went inside out
Hey delvis, hows the back healing up? I think im suffering with the same thing
. So just wondered how its going with it.Hey delvis, hows the back healing up? I think im suffering with the same thing
Hi man
Yeah still some niggling pain going on...Not 'as' bad as last week, but still something there. It occasionally twangs if I bend over or something (like washing up) so try and bend my knees more at the moment...
I can feel it mostly if I straighten my upper back up then 'arch' my lower back, feels like a small bit of pressure or something...Either way still not back in the gym yet which sucks as it's not something I want to play death with really
Got a fair whack to do this week with regards to moving house so i'm taking the opportunity to 'rest' a little, even though i'm lugging boxes around. If it's still knackered next week I'm going to go back to the docs again and pursue it a bit further.

Mad chest DOMS this morning. I think the extra volume is gonna serve me well.

Sounds very familiar to mine. At the moment I've took the week off to focus on mobility and to work it in to my daily routine and will see how back is next week.
I believe I did mine on Deadlift, as I pulled instead of pushed
Think I twinged my rotator cuff benching last night, did first working set on 105kg for 8, gave me jip through the whole workout but still managed to get a good session out of it!
Managed 118kg for 7, on the last working set which I was happy with.
Lesson learnt, warm them up before benching relatively heavy!
