I was listening to the stronger by science pod cast and they mentioned that that’s how most back injuries happen and often not even at the gym. You can DL 500lbs but gently caress your back up picking up a box of books while moving.

Goons my bff wants to do free weights. He's been doing machines forever, but nothing really heavy. What's a nice beginner program for a guy? I can show him the mechanics but I'm clueless on what would work best for him.

Eventually I started making a mental note to really stick my rear end back like I was trying to touch the wall behind me with my butt without moving my feet and I also started setting my low back before the pull by thinking about pressing my belly into the insides of my thighs. Now deadlifts torch my rear end and hamstrings and I never feel particularly sore in my low back.

Yo-yo dieting doesn't suddenly become cool and good because you lift weights a few times a week

Even people I know who have been a long time into working out have no idea on how to actually sculpt a body. It's wild. I'm trying to get my boyfriend to follow an actual program, but he's resisting it. ultrafilter posted:Starting Strength is the go-to beginner program in YLLS. There's thread with a lot of info. Drunk Driver Dad posted:GZCLP Thank you! I started lifting with SS ages ago, but I think he'll like GZCLP more. We already covered nutrition but he needs a lot of guidance, it's exciting to finally have someone to nerd out with about weights.

Nice work, I'm currently on the PR gravy train since I've started to be more smart about food and lifting, and hitting PRs every other week is noice. However I'll be on vacation for 3 weeks and while that doesn't sap my strenght or anything it will suck to get back into it afterwards while I'm on a run right now. Being able to consistently squat 3 plates after being so bad with squats is so nice. Gonna do a hypertrophy cycle though right after I'm back to put some more muscle on my frame want to reach that lean muscled 220lbs.

Not being serious, I have a lot of weight left to lose but I am looking forward to eventually adding some calories back in and trying to build up some vanity muscles. feelix posted:Yo-yo dieting doesn't suddenly become cool and good because you lift weights a few times a week I don't know that I'd call 9 weeks of hitting calorie targets every day with a few days of relaxed eating at the end yo-yo dieting. I am definitely looking forward to eating a calorie bomb or two this upcoming week- there's something called a peanut butter brownie pancake surprise at a local diner that I can't wait to murder- but I am keeping an eye towards the future to keep myself in check. Plus I'm still going to do my daily cardio, a couple weekly lifting sessions plus yoga on the balcony overlooking the ocean. It's all gravy
