    Those leg extensions... I don't think I have ever even seen a machine go anywhere near that heavy!!!

    Weight & reps are important, but the most important thing on the lying leg curl IMO is the contraction. You know when you hit them sufficiently with it, and something like an RDL will take care of...

    Decent night's sleep last night (which for me is anything around 6 hours). Woke up feeling a little groggy/fatigued, but had shaken that by the time I got to the gym after walking the dog and...

    HMMMM... I might have to think about that myself before doing one. Then again I have been OMAD for a little bit so I am probably already relatively fat adapted. Especially compared to your situation.

    Well he is from these parts! I don't know why but baseball bores me to death. So it doesn't bother me at all. ;)
  • MrKleen73
    Yeah, I think it just comes down to you not allowing yourself to get very fluffy at all. Once the belly isn't fitting as easily through the thighs it becomes a positioning issue.

    Wait deadlift feels better thicker?? That’s not really how it goes. More muscular maybe, but generally it gets harder to get in position if you gain fat.
  • MrKleen73
    My deadlift ROM feels so much better 20lbs heavier, and the barbell doesn't man handle me with heavy squats lol. power lifting truly is more fun with a few extra lbs.

    Yeah usually that’s what your biggest bench takes - an overly thick version of yourself! You hit it & got it on record, so now time to pull back.

    Thanks all. Not comfortable or happy with weight though so will be doing a slow drop in weight.

    I hope she feels better already! :) I also hope that your trap / neck loosens up. If not how will you ever be able to do this again?

    Yeah, those doctors don’t want to get that Norwegian blood boiling too much, or they may need a doctor themselves. The Mariners are looking good….yeah, the Braves are looking like that 2023 team...

    As long as "strength loss" is mostly due to changes in leverage and not actual muscle tissue loss things should be good, and set you up for a serious rebound. :)

    The prospect of losing 25lbs is intimidating! I know I can do it, but what it will do to my strength I’m not sure. I know I can get it back regardless eventually though, so I’ll need to remember...

    Think that definitely happens. I also can just like feel the "tired" in my arthritic knees. Hopefully nothing a good night's sleep can't help resolve. Got legs tomorrow so need to rest up lol.
