I couldn't imagine the last time I went bowling I was sore for a week and couldn't hit delts for 2 lolWhen's the last time anyone played baseball or went to the batting cages.
I haven't played in about 4 years now and just left the batting cages and I can feel it in my hips and my wrists like someone beat me up lol
Ya I'm gonna go hard still from here on out still but I'm gonna be extra careful about the shoulder. I'm going to do the minimum heavy work that I think is necessary and work hard on the lighter stuff.
Just a personal thought but I would pick one or the other, if the fight is a priority drop the strength focus and get your conditioning right. I don't think 4 weeks is a proper amount of time to get in amazing condition for a fight. Otherwise maintain the weight do the bench contest and bulk. Of course it all comes down to your priorities.
I agree with this too, because you really don’t want to chance putting in so much work that really requires different training, that you injure yourself. I actually started thinking that when you started talking about tweaking your shoulder. Brother I know from experience there’s just no quick way back from a shoulder injury. Just the dedication, knowledge, proper training, and muscle memory helps you get back faster than the average Joe, but it still feels like for ever.
That's the problem, neither one is really a priority right now LOL. The fight should have been the main priority but I let the bench press thing get in the way and the more I keep thinking about dropping 20 lb in 4 weeks or 5 weeks the more I'm thinking it's a bad idea my endurance is also crap right now in comparison to what it used to be and I know it'll come back quick but I don't know if it'll come back for weeks quick.
When you puke, you know you’ve reached failure on cardio. No where to go but up from there.My cardio/lung capacity is trash right now. Trying not to

While this is nothing compared to what I was doing back in april-june, it's way more then anything I've done lately. I feel sick lol
See it's weird, if I do steady state cardio I can pace myself and it's hard but it doesn't make me feel bad after. When I do the high intensity cardio and I'm out of shape it makes me feel sick. The worst part is after doing it I go home and I sit down to eat my meal and I can't eat it takes me almost an hour and a half to kind of snap out of it. At least it did last night and it's done that in the past the worst shape I'm in for high intensity cardio the harder it is to eat after my workouts but if I just go lift weights I can shovel the food down immediately.
I've puked from lactic acid before (as I'm sure many of us here have) and it's just the worst, most burning sensation during and after. Wouldn't surprise me to learn that is the cause of your feeling sick during high intensity cardio when out of shape. It's also probably the reason it's hard to eat, your body's way of saying "hold up there, I got some stuff I gotta sort out." You probably have a bunch of LA that got dumped in there, maybe not enough to make you hurl though.
It's def high on my list to try out when I finally get my training periodized properly and do a fat loss phase.
The list is 7miles long. It's good stuff
Cardio took a big cut but I thought I dialed back the calories accordingly. Maybe I was just overtraining for a while and now things are recovering better so I'm making better use of the food? I don't even know if that makes sense lol. Implementation of some things for insulin sensitivity, a few more calories cut and a tiny bit extra cardio should do the trick. Worst case scenario I do a mini cut 10 days out. I've had quite a few successful mini cuts in the past that lasted 7 to 10 days. They're just a lot of work and I don't like doing them lol
Ya I'm not complaining, I'm on hour 13 right now. We get time and a half after 8:00 and double time after 12 so I'm making $73hr right now.
That's what I'm hoping for
Yeah they gave us today off, I'm glad they did I didn't get home till 10:30 last night and I didn't fall asleep till about 2:00 a.m. and I would have had to been up at 4:00 a.m. would have made for a really crappy day today. And it's pouring where I live so would have been even worse doing it in the rain all day. For some reason I still woke up at my normal time well about a half an hour late 4:30 a.m. but I went back to sleep and slept till 9:00 and I've been running around doing errands all day. I got two people supposed to work out with me at 6:00 p.m. tonight. I could probably hit the gym right now but I wouldn't have anyone to spot me and I'm going to need a spot tonight.
October 1st I picked up a little side job for the day, my uncle's restaurant is catering a big wedding and they want me to bartend from 10:00 a.m. till midnight. The people who are having the wedding actually know my family and requested me so I have a feeling I'm going to make a big chunk of money that day I'm expecting somewhere between $600-$800 and that money is going to Goodies, all of it! LolThat’s a long day for sure, but hey you’ve earned the right with the extra money to maybe get you some anabolic goodies.

I think that's actually unselfish. Having kids when you're not up to the task; mentally, financially, commitment wise or what ever, but still have them just cause' you want to have them, that's selfish.
That's my brother, he never had kids, his dogs are his kids. While I was working 60hr weeks and drinking myself to sleep in my 20's and early 30's my brother was going to Jamaica and Vegas and wherever else he wanted.
