Piso Mojado posted:yeah, totally. I firmly believe that the best workout is one you enjoy doing. for most people, if you aren't enjoying your workout you are more likely to fall out of your routine. I think what most people struggle with is motivation, and nothing saps your motivation like working out so hard you hurt yourself. I suggest extreme caution when it comes to not over-training when you first set out. |

let i hug posted:I want to get back into long distance running too but it's honestly just too hard to motivate myself with lovely winter weather It's tough to dive right into winter running, and dangerous too. The only reason I'm able to do it is because I'm out there each and every day as the temperature slowly gets lower and lower, providing me with an easy way to learn what kind of clothes I need to be wearing. |

Ace of Baes posted:It's awesome but I would not recommend it if you're actually trying to obtain competitive results wrt training, I mostly just wanted to eat pizza all the time and binge drink on the weekend without getting fat. When I switched my diet to "healthy" food (shitload of greens and nuts and occasionally some carbs/sugars) I got a lot faster and my runs got a lot easier. I just like having lots of time alone to think. Everything else is just a perk right now I suppose. |

let i hug posted:So is a slight intermittent (like I notice it for an hour, then can't feel it for 10) ache in my lower back just above my glutes a bad sign since I'm just getting back into heavy lifting? I'm pretty comfortable with my form and will probably record myself to double check, but I've never really felt anything like this and the coming-and-going is weird to me. It doesn't feel like a sore muscle, more like the feeling if I pull my neck. I know back problems in general are supposed to be scary but I'm also in my twenties and feel like my youth makes me invincible so I don't know what to think Maybe a minor sprain? |

Piso Mojado posted:you eat three omelets before you run? No, it's an omelette made from 3 eggs, but I often do my run at random times during the day, sometimes after a large meal. Running while bloated isn't really difficult, it's running while having to poo that's difficult. |

Piso Mojado posted:if you did yoga, you would be mentally connected with the coyotes and they would run along side of you, protecting their new pack member from harm, cramps. I put more faith in my ability to kick coyotes in the face than I do connecting with them spiritually, call me a pragmatist, if you will. |

hemale in pain posted:unrelated question, how do you stop red marks on your shoulders/neck area from cable crunches? combined with red marks from squatting it looks like ive been brutally savaged in the bedroom I would try wearing more clothing, or try doing less weight and more reps and work your way back up, so that your skin has a chance to toughen up! |

FluffieDuckie posted:i had one of those days when i increased my weight on every machine yesterday. i came home feeling like a champ Exercising takes alot out of you, happiness wise, your body's natural reaction is to boost it's mood in whatever fashion it prefers! Yours is to eat some brownies, which is the same as mine! I love getting a brownie after I finish my workout. I'll stuff myself with sweets as much as I possibly can, but that's only because I know I'll be working it off come hell or high water. My suggestion is to take out "loans" on sweets and pay off the "debt" as it were, later! |

Drunk Driver Dad posted:i finally got around to foam rolling and stretching and so far it seems like it's really helped with my knee pain. hoping it was just tightness from neglecting that because the idea of not being able to squat was really depressing me. i guess i thought the fact i'm on my feet working for like 60 hours a week somehow did something to gently caress me up. which technically it did, i have minor carpal tunnel now, but hook grip on deadlifts is painless so that is manageable Do you do any running? |

Drunk Driver Dad posted:no, but i need to do some kind of cardio. before my job i weighed about 155 and started lifting and built up mostly muscle to get to 170. then I got this current job and despite all the hours I work, i got up to 190 lbs. probably because i make money now and can eat whenever I feel like. And I get bored at work a lot and wind up visiting the vending machines. still, I'm 6'1 so 190 isn't really fat but it sucks. i'm wondering if I should try and cut some weight, or just roll with this and lift and just maintain. I think you should try some light jogging as rehab for your knee, just don't go crazy or anything! |

Drunk Driver Dad posted:hrm maybe. I don't really have time, I can barely deal with 3 45 minute workouts a week. I work 10 hour shifts for 11 days in a row. I can try though. Is there something about light jogging that is better than just walking around all day like I do at my job? No, I wouldn't suggest hitting it that hard, just try like a 7 minute jog, nothing too intense and see if that helps your knee at all. Think physical-therapy-style jogging, don't go all berserk. |
# ¿ Mar 14, 2016 10:03 |

Drunk Driver Dad posted:ah, gotcha. Should I try it as a warmup before squatting then? I'd suggest doing it right afterwards, do your squats and then just go right into the jogging. |
