    old folks update

    Thanks for posting it’s very motivating to see people here older than me still improving, it gives me hope.

    Dealing with some serious shoulder pain

    I’ll check out that video thanks any YWTLs. I’ve been doing some doorway and other stretches but not consistently enough. Do you also recommend stretching on non-workout days or only before workouts. I’ve been doing high rep lat pulls prior to any pressing both to rehab shoulder tendonitis...

    Dealing with some serious shoulder pain

    First, thanks for the responses! When I started lifting about a year ago I did Dumbbell Rear Delt Rows as a part of my warmup for Regular DB rows and did Upright Rows and DB Lateral Raises for Mid Traps and unfortunately nothing directly for Rotator Cuffs. Eventually I got lazy and stopped...

    Starting Over

    When does daylight saving happen? We don’t do that crap here in AZ except for some of the Indian Reservations because they are Federal Land.

    Dealing with some serious shoulder pain

    I decided to post this here since I’ve seen a lot of good advice given by the “seasoned” crowd and wanted to know if anyone has had a similar problem and what if anything can be done w/o medical intervention. Recently my Bench Press has been regressing despite my Squat and Deadlift going up...

    Starting Over

    Good going on you 1 year TT, and glad to see you got over the cold. I wish I could suggest something for the leg cramps but it sounds like you have the bases covered. Maybe it’s just because you took some time off?

    Superdrol pulse advice.

    Thanks for the info woodbear, I wish I had known that and been into lifting the last time I was there. Too bad we stopped going there for now, I hope it starts up again.

    Older wiser and just broke my old record

    Even though I work 2nd shift, much of it outside, I’ve yet to wear more than a T-shirt this year, well except when I was in Germany. I’ve never minded the summers, for that matter I only recently got a car with air-conditioning so that if I need to drive my father around he won’t have to...

    Starting Over

    Good to hear your physical went well TT. Too bad about your test but at least your doc is helping you out. I knew test was expensive but that’s crazy. How long is one fill supposed to last?

    Shooting for 205? Are you still at 176 or is your profile out of date? If so that’s quite a jump. I just updated mine to 171, 5 lbs. heavier than when I joined in October. My goal has been to gain ½ lb. each week and I’m pretty close to that. If I keep this up until my next physical...

    I started putting the coconut oil in my shakes last week. It does make it easier to up the calories. I haven’t cooked with it yet since I haven’t made anything fried recently but hash browns do sound good tomorrow.

    Having fun again

    I just started my second week of workouts post trip and am back in the groove having a great DE lower body workout today. I’m still following (should say learning) the Westside system and loving it so far. It’s a great for me since I’ve always got program ADD and it lets me switch up the max...

    Starting Over

    Congratulations on getting 295 lbs. Getting 300 on the bench right now is a lifetime goal for me. Have you tried taking your warm ups a little higher. I used to take a big jump to my workout or max attempt weight but found that with practice I do much better on a max effort if I take the...

    Having fun again

    First, just in case you didn’t notice it PP is running a New Year’s sale. Check out the Company Promotions forum for the details. The only product I’ve tried of theirs is EndoAmp-Max, so it might be time to give something else a try. You’ve really had some crappy luck lately, but at least...

    Can an old man get huge?

    If you can, with the M.E., find a way to incorporate cardio. I made the mistake of dropping all cardio to gain weight a year ago. About 3 months ago I switched from bodybuilding to powerlifting and started doing hill sprints as a form of active recovery and GPP. It’s made a huge difference I...

    Need some Motivation

    I have a ruptured L1 disk which had caused intense back and leg pain for almost 5 years. The only way I could sleep was to do as tuberman suggests, putting pillows under my legs to elevate them. Then I started Deadlifting and within two months I was pain free. I no longer need pillows under...

    Can an old man get huge?

    Don’t worry, I’m not starting a log here I just thought that it might be worth it to some people to see what one drug free 50 year old was able to do in his first year of training, which just ended yesterday. The number after the “+” is the change in one year. Height 5’6” Wrist Measurement...

    Older wiser and just broke my old record

    I’ll check out those sites Dutchman. I haven’t cooked with it yet since I was under the mistaken impression it would go bad like most oils when heated. Now I’ve actually got something to cook my breakfast with. I originally came across Coconut Oil researching diets like UD2 for the reasons...

    Older wiser and just broke my old record

    I haven’t searched the forum for posts on Coconut Oil yet but about 2 months ago I started putting it in the two shakes I drink every work day. I realized whole foods are probably better but in order to get the 3200 kCal./day I need to grow I can’t eat enough “real” food while at work and still...
