    Thanks fellas. There was a lot of time between seeing a lot of that side of my extended family - and I'm sure you guys know how family dynamics can get. But I was really glad I went to be able to help lay her to rest, even if I was the only one from our side of the family who showed up. Maybe...

    KLEEN LIVING - A log about Life, Training, and Nutrition.

    Catching up in here: I hear you Kleen on the dieting down part being hard for us meatheads when it comes to potential muscle loss. But I think by actually doing it, I overcame that fear part for me at least. Do I mentally still like the weight on the scale being as low as it is for me? No, but...

    As crazy as it might sound to you, maybe start with like a 60% of training max level - just knowing the issues you're dealing with and how long you've been off this type of compound lifting program. Just think of yourself as a newbie - who also has the opportunity for newbie-like gains again!

    The Biggest Smont ever! 🤔 Lets find out

    Dang brother, sorry to hear this. Hoping it's not actually serious - while I know you mentioned you'd actually rather for surgery - there's both time, cost, and rehab elements to that. Was going to say this. If you have an urgent care around you that does imaging too (you can usually check...

    Good info. Since I don't take days off though... [emoji38] on a side note, I heard Jay Cutler mention he still works out 7 days a week. Crazy! Did end up going for another pre-dinner walk with the kids again. Just trying to stack good habits - and include the family in it when I can. Had a...

    Building Back Up

    Nice job Green! As Hyde said, count it. Re: TRT testing - when actually is the optimal time to test if you wanted to look at levels? Is it an hour or two post-bolus injection? At the midway point between doses, at the end? Basically how do you know what levels you are achieving as I imagine...

    I'll have to try adding in dead bugs. My full warm up routine currently is, Foam rolling Stretching Scap Push Ups Bird Dogs Cat Camels Curl Ups (only recently added these back in). But good point on adding this routine in even on non-WO days. Also, I have recently been doing walks more often...

    While last night I racked up good total hours of sleep, it wasn't entirely restful since my son isn't feeling well. He woke up early this AM and I had to give him some medicine and sit with him for a bit. After about 30-45 mins it was clear he wasn't going back to bed. But I was! Got another 40...

    Remind me, what is your overall goal at the moment with this stack? Primarily weight loss? I also remember you mentioning starting up semorelin too?

    Right now juat keeping up with the McGill prehab work as always, but also adding in the curl ups on the floor (usually I skip those), plus daily CurcuPrime usage on lower back (and left forearm/elbow), and resting it by not doing unbraced exercise largely.

    HS shoulder press will be a nice addition! I find that more neutral grip on a lot of exercises for me these days just feels better on the shoulder joints.

    Yeah, I'm trying to track both objective and subjective measures to get a good picture overall. Right now I'm using fibit's daily readiness and sleep scores as objective metrics, and my own qualitative scores on rating how I feel for mood and muscle fatigue plus general fatigue for subjective...

    Hyde’s Strength Odyssey

    While I love the convenience of working out at home, this type of push from the gym bros is the environment I miss from working out at a commercial gym. Just following others push and that nudge from others to say, you can do this. Good luck to you both!

    Weight check: 156.0# (+2.6# up over the holiday weekend) BF: 14.2% (+0.3%) Doing some AI stack optimization and for my joints it's recommending more fish oil (2g EPA/DHA is actually the study with benefits, will start double dosing) and collagen + Vitamin C prior to training. I usually run Vit...

    Hope everyone had a great long weekend. Was a bit of a washout here in the Northeast with the rainy weather, but it did clear up enough for us to still get out on the water for the first time this year even though it was chilly. There was an airshow for Memorial Day and we got to see the Blue...
