having skimmed this thread i'm getting the impression that i have no idea what i'm doing in the gym i mean. i have gotten by. i did cursory research, looked at the standard lifting routines, learned from ~*~my boyfriend~*~, but i probably shouldn't be left to my own devices when deciding what it is i'm gonna work on for any given day or moment i now understand why it is that people employ trainers e: "what's a floor press" -me reading this thread

juche avocado posted:having skimmed this thread i'm getting the impression that i have no idea what i'm doing in the gym don't worry too much about your exercise plan if you're not super into lifting (yet). in my experience, new lifters tend to go way overboard with overtraining when trying to do everything by some super detailed 5-day split. i've always gotten the most overall gains from doing a really simple 3-day split of just push/legs/pull or something like that. focusing on individual muscle groups is most helpful once you've hit a plateau or are interested in actual bodybuilding. starting strength is a pretty good program for lifters that don't know what the hell they're doing, or you can try joe defranco's westside for skinny bastards if you want something with a little more meat to it. you can find both of these online for free. if you need to know what a particular lift is or how to do it, exrx.net is a really useful resource.

Just wondering if there was a stretch or wrist exercise I could do to strengthen that area. straps and wraps are different things. i think the wrist is mostly ligaments and tendons and doing grip work might help strengthen them? try opening and closing your fists in a bucket of sand

Spent the last several days doing the holidays normal of eating a lot and not exercising beyond that required to haul in more wood from my parent's barn to keep the stoves burning, and now that I'm home I got a good twelve miler in this morning. I suspect my legs will have something to say about it tomorrow.

Accretionist posted:As a lifelong cardio-ignorer, this sounds delightful. it doesn't take very long. both times iv got into running i've just done Couch to 5K and skipped through parts of the program as necessary. Seems to take about 5 weeks instead of 9 if you're a healthy non-old. theres a pretty good app now that just plays over the top of podcasts/music its a pretty fun progression from not being able to run for 1 minute without running out of breath (seriously, I thought i was gonna die from the stitch) to running for 2 hours without losing your breath and it happens pretty much all of a sudden compared to the time you have to invest for major weightlifting milestones.

The weather is always a crap shoot, give that it's northern VT and that particular year it was a windy, rainy 50 degrees out. By happenstance my leg of the relay ended with a long-ish stretch uphill on battery st. and since I'd only run six miles or so and I was still riding the runners high like mad I did it in a dead sprint. After handing off the token to the next runner, I did the cool-down walk around battery park, and was literally steaming. Pancakes posted:January crowds at the climbing gym. This past week there were a bunch of bros I've never seen before, bro'ing it up at my gym and hogging the squat racks (while doing remarkably few actual squats or anything else). I suspect they'll be gone in a week or so, never to be seen again.

That reminds me: anyone in/around the northeast who wants to do a fun as hell 15k set against a backdrop of industrial decay and urban abandonment would be well advised to sign up for the Utica Boilermaker, registration for which opens in early March. I've done it most years since 2010 and it's my favorite race to run (and not just because there's all-you-can-drink free Saranac beer for runners at the after party).
