    Douchebags at the gym...

    Sometimes I show off by putting plates on with my teeth. I can't count the number of times i've left one bud hanging because someone was talking to me then bent over to put more plates on and slam, earbud falls in between.

    Ergonine

    I find I need a lot of water for E9. Tasty stuff once you get the right ratio though.

    MIA

    I haven't been around much these days due to some serious life changes. I think I have everything in order now so it's back to routine. Adjusting to the single life after 21 years in relationships has been a bit of an adjustment to say the least. lol This thread has no purpose, i'm just at the...

    Douchebags at the gym...

    I have Skullcandy Titaniums. They are metal so they don't get crushed between plates. Trust me, it's not for lack of trying. lol

    Sleep issues

    I've been attending a conference for the past couple of days so my diet and schedule is way off which isn't helping. I also may have imbibed in a few drinks the past couple nights too which has definitely not helped. lol

    Sleep issues

    Melatonin actually keeps me awake. I have no idea why. I wear a brace all day but take it off to sleep. I may try wearing it overnight tonight. I've fought this on and off for a few years. I've tried Growth Factor XT and didn't really see much in the way of better sleep. I may try G8 though.

    Sleep issues

    I tend to wake up very sore. I know that's part of the issue. I have prescription pain killers but I try to avoid taking pills unless absolutely necessary due to past issues. I'm going to load up on painkillers tonight before bed and see if that helps.

    Sleep issues

    I have had the same routine for as long as I can remember. I generally get into bed around 10:30 and do some light reading for a bit. I try to be asleep by 11. I don't watch any tv or use electronics much if at all around that time. I generally fall asleep pretty quick then wake up around 3 or...

    Sleep issues

    I've used GABA in the past. Last night I took a Zopiclone which is a prescription strength GABA increaser.

    Sleep issues

    I am very well schooled on how to sleep and what to do. The issue is never falling asleep though, it's staying asleep. I sleep in a basement where it's cool and dark. I've slept at my mother's house, a friend's house, trying to see if environmental changes would help. Same thing, awake at 3 or...

    Sleep issues

    I am inclined to agree but I go through this pattern every once in a while even when there is no stress. This time though because my life has been seriously upended it is possible. I did sleep like a baby for a month after the shift but the past couple of weeks not so much.

    Sleep issues

    What I'm thinking is that I was spending 60-90 minutes a day 5-6 days a week in the gym before I hurt myself. Now i'm going twice a week to do legs and abs. I'm thinking i'm just not wearing my body out like it's used to. I know it's likely a combination of stress and life changes as well but...

    Sleep issues

    I've tried a few supplements to help me sleep in the past. I've used prescription sleep aids. The issue is not falling asleep but staying asleep. I have a hard time getting more than 3-4 hours of sleep a night because of this and it's starting to wear me down. It seems to coincide with my elbow...

    Who's cutting and how's it going?

    I'm down under 180 now. Less than 10 pounds to my target of 170. That should put me around 14% body fat. I'm going to reassess at 175 though to see how I'm looking and feeling. Then likely hit 170 and reassess again. If I'm still feeling good I may shoot for 165 before starting to bulk again. I...

    Training split

    Be careful of the volume though. It's pretty easy to burn out and injure yourself without sufficient recovery. I'm dealing with this right now.

    Training split

    I'm a big fan of PHAT. I was using a similar program that I designed before I discovered it so it made sense to me.

    A toxic work environment eventually bleeds into the rest of your life. Choose wisely.

    Kat and Puccah's Strong is the new sexy log

    People are so afraid of doing things that are hard that they want to make anyone who does look like a cheater. It just makes them feel better about being lazy. It justifies their lack of work ethic.

    Kat and Puccah's Strong is the new sexy log

    I've tried numerous times and find I just can't train in the morning. Maybe it's because i'm old and it takes a while for my joints to loosen up. I just don't feel like I get a good workout in in the mornings.
