i wanna build a torque monster!
very nice you've got to grow if you're going up in weights like thatFirst Off, woke up today, felt like crap! Was VERY tired/lethargic, had pain and just felt like crap in general from it all! But decided screw it, im gettin up and doing what i can and make something happen. Today didnt turn out to bad surprisingly tho, other then still fellin like crap!
Squats- 110x6x4<---Up 10pds(Felt like CRAP and struggled on first 2sets, after that refocused and got mad! Got "easier" from there out!)
Suitcase DB DL- 55x6x4<---Up 5pds
Asst Chins- 65x6x4<---Up 5pds
BB Bench- 110x6x4 <--- Up 10pds(Felt like i could add another 5pds easy)
Scrushers- 50x6x4 <---Up 10pds
Military Press- 50x6x4<---Up 5pds(These didnt feel as hard, guess we will see when i go up in reps next week)
Weight= 155! <--- Woohoo! I hit my goal! +10pds Since i got outta the Hospital beginning of Feb!
Next week will be the REAL test and see how i do with higher reps! By the end today i was runnin low on fuel.
truevery nice you've got to grow if you're going up in weights like that
Yes, I would hope so! Next week will be the real test of manhood. Getting sicker+going up in weight/reps+goin to be harder to eat= Very Rough and Tough week ahead!very nice you've got to grow if you're going up in weights like that
Thank You VERY much Big Man! My Goal was for 155pds by the 20th. So just for kicks, im setting it at 160pds now by the 20th! Ya had to just refocus and get some aggression goin in the ol body and brain! Ya, I GOT THIS!Dang Teg 155! That is completely awesome. Good job fighting through those last reps. I know how you feel, i felt like crap going into the gym yesterday and nearly put out all new PR's. Keep it up man! That Crohns aint gonna wanna mess with you if y ou keep it up!
I was big into the import scene a couple of years ago. 4 Tours to iraq and military has really put a damper on it but i did manage to pick up a clean 91 civic ef si. GOing to be fun when i get home!
Thanks You Sir! At this point, I dont see any other way!Man, I have nothing to bitch about. Your hardcore, good luck man!

Ya SWG PMed me a link to read in the mean time which i was last nite after i posted, but feel asleep at the beginning of it lol Ill read it this weekend and so some more studying. I wish i could eat greens bro. Greens KILL my insides tho! So im still tryin to find a decent greens supplement that dont hurt. Dont know much on the alkalizing tabs, will do some research. Do you have any suggestions or ideas TL/SWG?Teg, you really should also pay attention to SWG's post above. That alkalizing diet planning he referenced above is about 30% of what my mom does for her job at an extremely expensive spa in southern california... People pay upwards of 2 grand an hour for a private consultation.
I constantly eat veggies and also green supplements and alkalizing tablets to keep my GI / Pancreas issues at bay. Also keep in mind that 95% of substances you take for BB'ing have an acidifying quality to them.
And nice work on the diet man... Just get them greens in there.
Yes he has! I am thankful and and blessed to have some GREAT guys in this thread! I am humbled by you guys and you are what drive me to do better and try to be the best with no excuse! I know Timber for sure will put the smack down if i start slacking...Timber be laying his beatdown with some good sound nutritional advice up in hee-yaa!!
Teg, you're a real warrior. To be training like you are with the condition you have....my winged helmut's off to you man!! :notworthy: :box:
You have my respect and admiration for what it's worth. That, along with maybe $1.50 will get you cup of coffee. Not at Starbuck's though!! LOL
Keep pounding the weights and trying to pound down as much good food as you possibly can. You'll start putting on some lean pounds.
And I do wish I could get away with eating some of the stuff you can. I gotta watch every calorie in my old age!! The old metabolism ain't as fast as it used to be!! :laughing:
Dont know if the "greens" tablets you can take to supplement ur intake will help at all. Id look at nutra, i stumbled accross it the other day when i was filling my cart.Thanks You Sir! At this point, I dont see any other way!

Plant supplements wont help him put on muscle, but it could very well help with his overall health and GI condition.Dont know if the "greens" tablets you can take to supplement ur intake will help at all. Id look at nutra, i stumbled accross it the other day when i was filling my cart.
I should be out of here *hopefully* by the middle of July. As long as i have my food and weights, im fine.
I had a CRX EF when i was back in college. Dropped a GSR, had it turboed and redid the interior myself. Helps having a mechanic for a dad. Hopefully i can convince him to take the ride down to see me and drop the new engine in my hatch. I fixed the body up before i left. Shaved moldings, replaced old bumpers and such. Outside is sanded and primed. IM going for a sleeper look, no fancy body kits and such. all about PERFORMANCE
Symptom control is the only thing holding him back. Its not like he can't put on weight. I know when I have a pancreas attack, it puts me out of the gym for a full day - and the next 4 days are whack at the gym. Every meal I eat causes pain.Yea i was talking about his GI situation. If that can help, hopefully he can "avoid" a big sick and be on the track to 200. If he can "control" his symptoms then he wont have to get sick, unhindering his progress
I wish your the best there bro! I hope you do get out of there SOONER rather then later! Youll be in my prayers! Wow nice deal right there! GSR+EF= Kick in the pants car! Ive never been the wings/stereo/body kit kinda guy. Always lean mean and clean for me. Always been about going fast and pushing the limits of the car in performance, not what is "in".Dont know if the "greens" tablets you can take to supplement ur intake will help at all.

Ya i think thats what he was saying?(helping with the overall condition with "greens supps" since eatting my greens is a no no for me try to get em another way so they dont cause pain, restroom trips etc....Plant supplements wont help him put on muscle, but it could very well help with his overall health and GI condition.
I think too few of the people on this board consider overall health... but hey, if you feel like disregarding my advice - more power to you.
Ya i think you guys are sayin the same thing, just misunderstanding each other er or something? No?Yea i was talking about his GI situation. If that can help, hopefully he can "avoid" a big sick and be on the track to 200. If he can "control" his symptoms then he wont have to get sick, unhindering his progress
Yes! The symptoms are what keeps me down of course. Gaining weight is hard in ANY aspect for me, that said, i can do it which i have prooven, and of course its better to do it with eatting "right" then to not. Which is why i eat better then just about anyone i know! PPL thinkin im crazy for putting as many cals in as i do. But then again, its twice as hard for me since i have so much scar tissue built up in the walls of the intestine and what not. Then add on top of it the CC flaring up and that makes it even THAT MUCH harder!Symptom control is the only thing holding him back. Its not like he can't put on weight. I know when I have a pancreas attack, it puts me out of the gym for a full day - and the next 4 days are whack at the gym. Every meal I eat causes pain.
Just saying, the conventional bullsh*t medicine he is taking for CC is only further acidifying his body and putting stress on his internal organs. The major concern of IBD and CC is developing cancer - which is also encouraged in an acidic host.
Definitely need to balance out the cost and benefit of running these extra supplements and hormones particularly with a pre-existing condition...
UWOH OK THANKS BRO. That helps a lot. I have acid reflux sometimes and i have had a stomach ulcer before.... not fun. So its hard for you to absorb nutrients? Since Waxi Maize Starch is absorbed and digested basically instantly, wouldnt this be a helpful carb to add to your protein shake?
How ofter do the ulcers or whatever flare up?
i dunno about crazy... maybe driven or motivated, or even ballsy!I know some Reps and Guys are prob reading this and thinking, "this cat is crazy lifting like he does and taking these supps with his condition and meds!" :lol:
Hahaha im prob all the above!i dunno about crazy... maybe driven or motivated, or even ballsy!
So i guess PH and Steroids are out of the question for you eh? Immagine not being able to PCT due to your chrons
Honestly i have no clue! I have been researching and studing, but cant find much. I been tryin to get hold of my Dr friend up in Canada but cant.hmmmm i wonder why. how could that be possible? Maybe the testosterone helps the body to heal better or seomthing?
No need to thanks us bro. Hel, you're the one encouraging us!!BTW if i havnt said it enough. Guys i thank you from the bottom of my heart with your help, knowledge, and encoragement!
Thank You Sir! Ill do what i can...No need to thanks us bro. Hel, you're the one encouraging us!!
Keep killin' dem heavy ass weights man.
HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!!!
sorry to hear that bro. try and power through it you can do it. yeah drink shakes if you got to. hopefully black hole has no ill effects long term or short term on you. What type of carb suppliment do you use in your protein shakes?Thank You Sir! Ill do what i can...
This week is going to be a real tough trial. Im goin to have to use Black Hole often. Today i got even worse I knew it would hit today or tomarrow! Tryed my best to get the cals in, but im not doin so well! This week i will have to take lots of shakes i think? I have nill to none appetite and im in a ton of pain! Especially at this moment. Took a vicodin and didnt even touch it! Kinda Funny im listening to Johnny Cash- Hurt
Thanks brotha! Im tryin my best! Just took a bath to see if it would help, well it did a lil bit for the pain in the guts, but its spread to the mid/lower back now and is kinda like having really bad back pumps x10! Im hurtin pretty bad right now. ERRRsorry to hear that bro. try and power through it you can do it. yeah drink shakes if you got to. hopefully black hole has no ill effects long term or short term on you. What type of carb suppliment do you use in your protein shakes?
Not an exact reason, just that this is sometimes what happens when i go down hill, tho havnt had the back pain in quite awhile? Im hoping itll go itll go away within the next couple hrs atleast the back pain...do you have any idea why you are hurting so bad?
turbo charge your rsx at 12 psi, 350whp, and have fun smashing on all the corvettes and motorcycles you could ever dream ofI hope you feel better Teg. If I were you I would listen to Timber and maybe think about what he said. I've met him and actually I have met his mother as well, they are both very intelligent people who know the human body pretty well. It would be worth a shot in my opinion, but I am also sure your doc knows what he is doing.
Your humbleness is humbling my friend. I think I take for granted how easy I really have it and concentrate too much on just "growing" and not my general health. You are keeping a lot of us "in check", which not many people on this board can do. Keep killing it at the gym, if you ever need help with new workout ideas, just shoot me a PM.
On a lighter subject, I didn't know your name meant "integra"... shows how slow I am sometimes... :lol: I am not huge into modifying my cars (as I bought mine new and still have a warranty lol) but I have a 2005 RSX type S. Just thought I would join in the little "honda club" everyone seems to be having on this thread. My car is soo much darn fun. Once my warranty expires... another 25000 miles or another year... probably the year will pass first... I am gonna do all the aspiration work to it, I don't think I am gonna do much more than that, but it should give me another 10-15 hp... I think 220-225 should be a good number for just cruising. 210 is pretty fast right now.
Dude, my car has to last me. I don't want to change out all the valves and/or blow my engine. Not gonna turbo it unless I start making 40+ grand extra a year. If I start ballin', hell yea I'll turbo it because it will become my toy, not my only car.turbo charge your rsx at 12 psi, 350whp, and have fun smashing on all the corvettes and motorcycles you could ever dream of
Yes i have been studying what him and somewhatgifted said. I have read about some of it befor, tho never understood it that well. So im getting into it. Ill have some ?s here soon. But tryin to understand it and the things that go along with it, some of i just have no clue about so i have to study that as well! hahahaI hope you feel better Teg. If I were you I would listen to Timber and maybe think about what he said.
