Those are way more comfortable. I wear 2 layers of wrist bands and regular straps still hurt my wrists. Maybe I'm a huge wuss.

why would your wrists hurt unless you are doing some crazy poo poo like lifting with no hands

If you try to clean a weight and have no idea what you're doing, you can hurt your wrists pretty badly.

Are you pulling them tight around your wrists? I've seen some guys yank them tight before wrapping them around the bar, but you're supposed to keep them fairly loose. The loop should be at the bottom of your palm, not at the wrist, before your rev the motorbike.

I was feeling a bit down and taking forever to write these papers and conduct this research. Then I started lifting again after a 5 month hiatus and just went with stronglifts because "gently caress it, its too easy to quit". Now I have a second research fellowship, no more teaching duties, a clean(ish) house, some published papers and essays, and a growing local community organization.

Coincidence? yeah probably

It was nice working out with a spotter for a change today. Another guy was doing bench at the same time and we traded off spotting for each other. Nice fellow

If he waits long enough he can use his accrued interest from his savings to bring his negative checking balance back into the black.

Ate at a really nice Italian place Saturday night and ate approximately 10 pounds of charcuterie so I'm feeling a good week of lifting coming on.

How much do I cum? The answer might surprise you!

I ate a bunch of breakfast sandwiches and a whole pizza later in the day and then drank a few beers before bed and the next morning I bulked 10 lbs in a 24 hour period. :wth:
