PTs are dumb

[Darth Biscuit]

my back is fuged, bad enough my PT said I should steer clear of doing squats with a bar, but managed to start doing them back in december and was happy just squatting 180 last week. 

 

 

Doing deads has helped my squat tremendously...  my back is sooooo much stronger than it was.

I just looked it up because I had never heard of it. It looks like a good way to lose weight if that is your ultimate goal. I would have to read a little more to see how effective it is for overall fitness.

Ran a mile in 6:43, fastest I've ever run a mile in my life. Pretty cool

are you a woman

[Hotsauce]

are you a woman

Nope...I would say Orange Theory classes are about 50/50 in my experience. The workout is similar to crossfit that is more cardio based and less crazy weights

[electro's horse]

cool, your heartbeat raises

 

your heartbeat raises watches football games. maybe just watch panthers reruns instead

Early season beach trip behind me, now I need to get back focused again.  Went out of bounds with me diet, but I just got a new order of CLA in yesterday, and stocked up on a bunch of stuff from the grocery store.  

 

To those men and women that post on here that have ups and downs in your dieting/exercising, don't lose hope when you feel like you've gone too far into Cupcake Land to turn it back around.  

 

Anyway, just trying to be motivational.

 

I have switched up my routine.  Instead of doing the typical days isolating chest/back/legs/shoulders/tris/bis, I'm doing more full body stuff everyday with core and agility training thrown into the mix as sorta "rest" days.  Keeping my workouts to under 45 minutes (typically under 30).  Keeping rest periods between sets/exercises to 30-45 seconds.  I have to back off on my weight load a bit, but I get my cardio this way, so it's a positive trade off for me since my knees won't allow me to run.  Besides, having 22" biceps really isn't my goal.

[electro's horse]

how can knees not allow you to run

 

that's like exactly what they evolved for millions of years to do

Not that I ever consumed much of it in the first place, but I'm cutting out foods and drinks with added sugar. Don't need it.

[PandaPancake]

Anyone else want to send a case of vitamin water to Jase's house?
