Chest stuff today at the gym guys.

I added a new blister / future callus on top of the 8 I already have. I've been hitting a couple hundred balls at the driving range every few days. My hand will be indestructible and hardened like a siberian babushka

Nice, I'm glad to see some retired guys in this thread too. It's important to stay fit at the golfing ages aka twilight years.

Golf is awesome but it seems like I am getting exponentially worse at it the older I get

Yeah, old age sucks. My muscles keep getting stronger, but my joints and tendons just bitch every time I bump up the weight.

Goddam aging infrastructure.

Managed to get to my gym for the first time in two weeks after being away training for a new job, and had to go at peak time( which will be the norm when I go operational in the new job) and if this is a sign of what it's like I may have to change gyms, it was horrible there were small clusters of oddly shaped youngsters huddling around each bench and lifting tiny weights.

It is probably from squatting incorrectly. Have you considered tracking your knees outside more? Also have you considered lifting more? Also have you considered sticking a needle in your butt?

i think i've posted probably 100 times in this thread i squatted just fine for like 8 months, even went from like 115-225 with no issues at all. being a form nazi helps a little but it's not the main issue. only trying to sleep really good, eat good, and not drink so much has actually seemed to help so it's probably a tightness/recovery deal. also my knees acted up some before i even started working out again so unless i'm squatting with such horrible form my knee pain traveled into the past

Same. I had two days of pizza that gave me heartburn for 2 days....and I just went through a small pack of the holiday vanilla creme oreos because I haven't had those since I was a kid. (1200 calories)

But hey, there's only one day this week I wasn't in the gym and I hardly ate today sooooooo..

Gym convo overheard from yesterday.
:argh: guy is a very angry 25ish man who is one of those "lift angry" gungho assholes who's always talking about fighting or breaking stuff to get back at people. :jihad: is large bearded man who doesn't generally talk much. :) is typical gym bro
:) and :argh: are talking about :) getting into a road rage incident
:) : So this guy is road raging at me and pulls up next to me screaming and I just ignored him until the light changed.
:argh: : I keep a big knife in my center console for stuff like that. I also keep an 18" steel rod in there in case I need to break a window and smash faces.
:jihad: : You should be careful with that steel rod, 1 in 4 adults in this city are licensed to carry a gun.
:argh: : There's a guy who work with who's always talking about guns. He said he'd shoot me if I ever tried to fight him and I was like 'if you pull a gun on me you better kill me'
:jihad: : Well... yeah that's kind of the point

Re: compression pants.

About a month ago (around the time the thread was destroyed by the name conspiracy), I was squatting and a dude came up in the rack next to me. As he's putting one 35er on each side (a weight he never changed, I thought he was just warming up but NOPE), I noticed he was wearing what could only be described as American flag leggings. I'm sure they were marketed as compression pants, but they were leggings.

These leggings had his dick and balls in the most grotesque headlock, and he's just walking around the gym like nothing is wrong. :stonk:

It was horrifying and is still burned into my retinas. Compression pants on guys without some kind of dick-wrangler: not even once.
