Ohhhhh I gotcha. Yeah, I’m not too worried about digging a deficit as much as recovering sufficiently which I think is just because the deficit ends up being too aggressive while training too...
oof good point... I was thinking in the scenario of a partial tear. full tear all bets are off. I don't know a lot about it but if doc allows I did read that the prp/stem cell therapy with the...
Well, if the MRI ends up showing it’s not attached, that’s it - no amount of stem cells etc can make a detached ligament re-anchor correctly, so the imaging to be sure what’s up is imperative to...
I would personally not exceed 12-13 reps on AMRAP barbell work. There comes a point where risk of injury from mounting exhaustion supersedes potential benefits. There is nothing a 20-rep squat can...
my wifes uncle lets them rip all the time now and everbody pretends they don't hear it. when we were in costa rica hiking back in 2025 with them he was all fart fart fart fart and I made a comment...
I guess once you get to a certain age you are like, f that I earned the right to funk up the place.
Oh no chance of that happening, his shlt eating grin would have been met with mine right before...
thanks man. I think what I'm realizing is longevity is the goal here. after many burnouts with this type of training. Klokov almost killed me, LOL! I'll never forget my 4 x 9 set of squats on...
I would bump squats the 20lbs this next cycle but probably keep deads to the normal 10lb TM increase. Reason being you don’t want to change too much at once. Things are working; you can extra bump...
Whichever direction you choose I’m sure is going to work for you. I agree with Kleen on the benefit of the AMRAP sets helping to build muscle as your strength increases. But like I said, I believe...
right on! I have had days where any empty bar ROM is like.. knees.. then shin... then ankle. then finally its flat on the ground with my hands wrapped around it for a full stretch. its sorta funny...
The RDLs were a nice idea @Dustin07. Just grabbed a squat bar and initially could not get much ROM, but quickly & painlessly had the bar down just a couple inches from shoelaces (even after...
Right, definitely that ballpark/type of issue, although like I said it would be the intratransverse as it’s to the right side of the injured joint, which aligns with the previous injury history to...
hmm I think my mindset here was when you said that maybe your lifting frequency is too high for good recovery and I was considering other ways of getting more movement in/NEAT without it always...
Yes, I have often told people that we can perform pretty close to peak and still do amazing things as we get older, it just requires more preparation and recovery time. Which with TRT and other...
oh man!! My last surgeon would try to do anything that didn't require cutting me open, hopefully your doc is of similar nature and could get insurance to cover stem cell or at least push for non...
Man sorry to hear about your shoulder, but at least you know now, and sounds like you’re already figuring out a plan of action. Good job continuing to put the work in, it will payoff. That’s great...
I think we are getting closer for sure. Plus, I have been able to add more things in even with this, so I am pretty excited about those things as well. Things are looking up.
Also great news on...
I had my tight pec worked on last night and it is bruised up and sore. Diet was on point, and did my 1 hour walk at lunch.
Also we reviewed my most recent x-rays where we focused on the...
OK thats good feedback. with these minor adjustments I'll stay the course here then, give the AMRAPs hell, and see what unfolds. I agree on Joker sets potentially overtaxing me, thats something...
Just a personal opinion here, but I think if you are worrying about recovery you should be limiting your joker sets, not the AMRAP. With how much lower your volume is now than before, recovering...
I was afraid they'd all think it was me!! 😂😂
I got hit by one on my flight home from SC last week and I almost blurted out "are you fucking kidding me right now?" took a little restraint to not...
