Joint pain gone with Flexible by Formutech Nutrition

Looking good
 
DAY 11
LEGS
WALKING LUNGES-db-40s-100 yrds
BACK SQTS-135x10
185x10
225x6x2
FRT SQTS-225-10x3
CALF RAISES-185-20x5

I am not happy at all with todays wo. My low back started screaming at 225 with back sqts. This is very discouraging because there is nothing i can do about it except for surgery. I changed to frt sqts and was only able to get 3 sets before the pain was too bad. I tightened my belt and was able to get calves worked. Flexible is doing very well with all my other joint pain, but the back prob is not treatable with any supps. I will foam roll and stretch it out and hope for the best next time.

Damn that's rough man. Flexible won't heal any injuries but it helps with joint lubrication, cartilage health and inflammation.

Flexible is second to none thats for sure. It does help my back during everyday activities,but when i load a bar on my back it compresses my spine and fuks things all up. It pinches nerves and my leg strength is cut in half. And it hurts like a bytch. I just need to foam roll and visit chiro,then i'll be good for a bit.
 
DAY 12
ARMS
CHIN UPS-bw-21s x3
SS
CG DB BENCH-50s-15x3(palms in)
BB CURL-85-10x3(cam bar wide grip)
SS
DB SKULL CRUSHERS-35s-10x3
HAMMER CURLS-50s-10x3
SS
SINGLE BAR DIPS bw+25-12x3
STAND DB CURLS-40s-10x3
SS
OH TRI EXT DB-80-10x3

Today was a pretty basic arm day with ss. I had no joint issues at all thanks to Flexible. I am happy with the results from only 4 caps per day and this really makes it affordable. Low back was still bothering me so i didnt go as heavy,but i still got a great pump with short rest between sets. I am holding my weight pretty steady at 175 and my strength is still good. I am itching to jump on cycle again tho. I may have a good one soon.

That's the same I do. 4-6 caps per day

I sound like a broken record when i say how good Flexible is. My joints are like liquid,very smooth baby!

PUSH UPS WIDE-25x4

That's great dude!! Way to look after the pops!
 
DAY 15
Today was going to be a leg day,but i didnt get much done because my low back was still not feeling it. Chiro wants me to stop for a few weeks,but i dont think thats gona happen. I did 50 yrds walking lunges,light db sqts,and calf raises. The rest of my wo consisted of foam rolling and stretching. Maybe by the end of the week it will feel better.
All my other joints feel great. One day the pain will be there and the next it has just faded away. The Flexible works great with no bad side effects at all. This is def one supp that should always be in your stash.

I remember when I messed my shoulder up doing incline DB press. My Dr. wanted me to not lift for a mth, whatever! I lifted the next day just really lite. Within two weeks I was back to my normal weights. Taking that much time off would of been worse I think.

Even when I had my
Last knee surgery the day before was leg day. Pain is only temporary.

Im just carefull how i move and what i lift on a certain day. I just listen to how my body feels. If we all never lifted when we hurt i think we would all be a bunch of out of shape puzzys! Besides what does a dr with a bunch of degrees know anyway.

So you really are a funny mf! At least you were the guy in charge. Haha

I tried 1 arm pull ups for the hell of it. I got 1 with the right arm and 3/4 with the left. I am weighing about 174-176 now and my strength is great. Everything has def come around nice during and after pct.

What's your goal with arms?
 
wicked442 said:
Prob an inch smaller than yours;) 18" by spring. Bigger would be better,but we will see how easy 18 is first.

That would be huge for your weight! I'm 212lbs and am at 18.5" arms now not sure what my bf is, maybe 12% or a little less. I have that "X" shape though with big quads (27.5") so I hold a lot of weight there.

My bf is about the same. Chest is 45",shoulders are 52"ish, quads only 25 1/2". I have a small frame so i have to pack on the muscle.

How tall are you?
 
I forget who knows what my physique looks like here and who doesn't. Are you in Swoldiers or the LR?
