GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.That would explain a lot of the nuance I deal with versus most others.
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.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...
-
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...

GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Nah, I don’t get seasonal allergies. The aches and that type of thing don’t fit allergies. But, I’m starting to wonder if I’m digging myself into a hole working out 4 times per week too close...

GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.lol doesn’t exactly look like it’s working. Either way, still went to the church/student conference as a leader. I don’t let it stop regular much, just take a week off training.

GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.This one turned out to be a nasty chest and head cold. The junk I’m coughing up is gross lol

GreenMachineX replied to the thread Slicin' and Dicin'.Lol Yep. I hate it here.
-
It will take some mental fortitude. But I think there is balance knowing that not every session has to be a PR I'll be able to hit baseline 531 numbers for a while. PL is more mentally taxing...

GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Now I know why i was so wiped... Getting sick once again lol 2 nights of sore throat, aches starting lightly today. Just in time for the conference this weekend. Oh well. Another week off...
