Every time I try to do hack squats I just end up falling all over the place. Not sure what's up with that anyways that's my story about hack squats.

I had never done a squat in my life until last year and they are just amazing. I was afraid they'd make my lower back problems worse but they actually fixed them entirely.

i entered the nyc marathon lottery (which opened today if anyone else wants to do it), so wish me luck it would end up being super expensive but i suppose it's a bucket list marathon

I did the Marine corps marathon, and decided after training up to that distance that half marathon we're more my speed. Way easier to train up to and recover from without losing a bunch of my weekend.

I've never done any of the big marathons myself, only the Green Mountain and Vermont City ones so far. Last couple of years I've tried to do the Philly marathon but both times had to cancel due to unavoidable schedule conflicts cropping up.

Last couple of years I've tried to do the Philly marathon but both times had to cancel due to unavoidable schedule conflicts cropping up. My most recent was Philly. It was my worst time ever... winds were high, it was really cold, and there's a good 8-mile stretch where it's pretty lonely and miserable. Really killed my willpower to push through, which is entirely my fault, but still. Everyone I spoke with there was super nice though. I've wanted to do the one... what is it, Burlington City or something? I never remember to apply before it sells out. The one where it got black flagged a few years ago for being 90 degrees and humid way out of season.

The Vermont City Marathon takes place (mostly) in Burlington, yes. It's run Memorial Day weekend which given VT weather can be...interesting. Last time I did it, it was in the low fifties, raining, and with massive wind whipping in off of Lake Champlain (which led to a moment of surreal comedy when I reached the bend down by the marina and saw someone's anchored sailboad capsize).

Oh, right! This was what I was thinking of. It was back in 2016. Not as bad as I thought--they halted it at 4 hours--but still must've sucked if you were planning on like a 4:40 finish or the heat itself put you on that pace. https://www.burlingtonfreepress.com/story/news/local/2016/05/29/heat-halts-vermont-city-marathon-first-time/85131462/ C-Euro posted:Hey my friend entered the lotto for this today, I hope both of you get in. Thanks! I really should sign up for something regardless because I have been in no mood to put up miles lately and could use a good reason to start training.

Yeah I remember hearing about that as I didn't run it that year. One of my friends was doing his first half marathon and finished before they called it, and is no more brain damaged now than he was beforehand.

Crakkerjakk posted:Starting strength? Or do you need something more advanced? im an intermediate lifter at this point. thought about texas method but i think it may be too much if i’m also rolling 4 times a week. i dont mind slower strength progression as long as i can avoid injury from overtraining

jarofpiss posted:anyone got a good total body 3day/wk routine that i can get stronger on but only takes an hour or so? wanting to do more bjj but trying to not overtrain and ruin my body like i always do there's a 3 day variant of 5/3/1 https://blackironbeast.com/5/3/1/calculator pick the 3 days/week option at the bottom and you can tailor it as you like with the other options to keep it at about an hour. I used to do Boring But Big and was in and out in about an hour including warmup. If you do that I recommend doing the swap option which switches the 5x10 sets up so it's deadlifts with squat day and vice versa

You'll be the only dude on the planet rocking three forearm days. Your forearms will become too powerful in time. No one will be able to stop you. Not even the police.

actually sat down and worked out my average protein intake and it was barely half of what I needed for lifting, and less than half if you throw in another few grams for being an old no wonder my progress seems so fuckin’ slow

I got really blazed and thought the bar was 35 lbs not 45 for some reason. Now I have made very rapid bench press gains. Would recommend
