How olds your boy?
A few days shy of 4 months. He’s actually handling it really well, thankfully. We’ve been at it since Thursday and can already see improvements.How olds your boy?
That’s awesome. Lucy wouldn’t sleep through the night until she was almost two! But my wife breastfed her until she was three and she co-slept with us until she was three as well lolA few days shy of 4 months. He’s actually handling it really well, thankfully.

Yah. He doesn’t sleep all the way through, brooke has had to get up to breastfeed him between 11-12 and again around 3, but for her that beats the heck out of sleeping unreclined in a lazy boy slumped over. Her neck, back, hips were really starting to give her problems and it definitely wasnt restful sleep. It just wasnt sustainable for her anymore.That’s awesome.

Breath belt is very nice. Like I said I was very hesitant to spend that much on a soft belt, but with the cash gift I had been given it made it worth the gamble. It is much more supportive than the soft neoprene rehband “warm belt” but still pliable enough to allow for expansion with proper diaphragmatic breathing. Im hoping just working on breathing drills with it might help my back discomfort by helping to correct (at least partially) my APT & potential scoliosis that ive never actually been officially diagnosed with but think i have.
Thanks Hoss!Nice work mate! Squat numbers are moving up nicely!
No doubt. There are multiple reasons why I’m not even close to considering moving to that style of training. One - i couldnt handle it physically. Two - theres no chance I have enough time to get one of those types of sessions completed. Three - its way too specific for where im at in my training journey (eg. No sights on a comp anytime soon).The RTS high frequency stuff is most suited for the youth and those genetically gifted for recovery. Look who trains that way: younger IPF lifters who come in and out of competitive powerlifting in a few years. Guys like Tuscherer are exceptions. Mike was/is a phenomenal lifter, better than most on drugs even. To take nothing away from his programming or worth ethic (as they’re exceptional), most folks cannot hold up to that stuff forever.
You get the best results from the hardest, most specific & frequent training you can recover from/keep up with. It’s up to you to figure out whatever that is.
I prefer spider curls but its easier to just pump out some heavy hammers than it is to focus on TUT with spiders.Hammer curls for the win!
Post a pic of your new gym beauties!
Maybe try 100-rep band Pressdowns with a micro or miniband for that tricep tendon a few days a week, on off days even? Just flushing blood to help recover that tendon and clean it out. Not muscle work, just getting blood in tendons.

Yup, need to bring one of my micros back up into the room. I can do them when i wake up when waiting for the shower to warm up. Thanks for the reminder.
Make it back to back nights of good sleep and painless wakings. Man...i could get used to this.YEAHHHHH BUDDY!!!! My back absolutely improved when I got a new quality mattress. It matters so much! Glad you enjoyed the first night man.
I do, yah. They really stretch out the lumbar at the top and then give a good glute contraction at the bottom.Do you feel like the band stomps make a pretty big difference in leg recovery?
Tried them tonight and really liked them; thanks!I do, yah. They really stretch out the lumbar at the top and then give a good glute contraction at the bottom.
Thanks Mate. Rpe scale is 1-10. It’s tougher to predict well the higher the reps get, for me at least.Nice work dude.
RPE scale 1-12?
Ah yeah me too. Saw something on insta the other day about how RPE is supposed to be 1-12 but I've always scaled it 1-10 myself (seems far more intuitive) but wanted to clarify.Thanks Mate. Rpe scale is 1-10. It’s tougher to predict well the higher the reps get, for me at least.
