When I was a teenager, I used to know this senior citizen pastor who would train in hunting muffs to block out all the noise that wanted to give me free swimming lessons at a lake somehow figured... -

I saw a dude using the h/s dip machine backwards and I was like... explain this to me. so he did. I gave it a try and man it hit different!

MrKleen73 replied to the thread Building Back Up.Sorry you are still having issues getting winded with squats. Does it just seem more taxing, or do you feel like you just cant get enough air.
-
Rough workout 😅 Couldn’t catch my breath during squats again. Dialed the weights/reps back a little, but it was still difficult. Bench 3 x 6 x 225 Squat 2 x 5 x 225 Inverted Row 4/4/4 Back...

MrKleen73 replied to the thread KLEEN LIVING - A log about Life, Training, and Nutrition..Well, whatever this is, it isn't new, so that part is good. Kind of wild to think my collar bone might have been just a free floating over the top of my shoulder attached on one side. I guess it...

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... -

Man glad to hear you’re getting to ramp up training in cool ways, and congrats on the job opportunity to prove yourself in such a visible fashion (and make a fat stack).

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...
-
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...
-
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...

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...

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...

And like Grok alluded to, shifting macros towards protein overfeeding can be a real strategy at times. In addition to being way more full if hunger is an issue, the same calories of protein...
-
Yessir, but I might push the deficit to 500kcal every so often and just deal with whatever issues arise.
-
this is sorta the conclusion that you've come to and have shifted to lately as well right?
-
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...
-
That would explain a lot of the nuance I deal with versus most others.
-
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...
-
Well, establishing a deficit isn’t the issue. Im going to shoot for 3k kcal each day and continue the same daily activity/workouts. That should still be a decent deficit. Edit: I think back to...

Anyone wanna look through my MA stash and help me decide on what might be worth my while for the next 30 days? Also I took a half ml of L-Carnitine extreme again. It's like 400 carnitine 100...

Would have been funny if you blasted one last one on the candle as you exited the room.😂 -
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...

Today's session. M6, Wk4, D1/2 Working sets: DB laterals, 2 sets Upright Rows, 1 set Neutral Grip Pull Ups, 2 sets Seated Cable Rows, 2 sets EZ bar Skull crushers, 3 sets 1 hr 18 mins, 206 cals.

MrKleen73 replied to the thread Slicin' and Dicin'.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...
