Anyone else have pain in their thumb joints when benching? Any sweet tricks to avoid it? It's a recent thing and not due to any injury that I know of anyway.

Thesaurus posted:I fell over on my bike two weeks ago, landing hard on the palm of my hand. I had a similar injury a few years ago, although mine was heavily swollen and pretty unusable for weeks after it happened, so probably more severe than what you have. Saw a doctor about it, who said there were no visible fractures in the X-ray and I should use the wrist as normal as soon as I could and it would just take time. Took about 6 months for it to stop hurting when doing bench.

I've been interacting with a guy at work who says he's a hardcore bodybuilder and a licensed personal trainer, and also says he works out 2 times a day and only uses small weights and tons of volume, and spends 200 euros per month on supplements. He does look like works out so not doubting that, but the way he describes it sounds nuts. Any comments?

The swole man seeks to make his life harder and to expend more energy. He seeks discomfort and pain because that will make him stronger in the future. Thus, energy cannot be wasted.

As a 6'4'' man I fully endorse this idea that the shorter man is probably inferior and ought to submit to inspection.

Try some variety, like front squats or goblet squats or suitcase squats.

Kettlebell suitcase squats are great btw. Asymmetrical movements in general are cool. *core, stabilizers, etc.

I don't remember it's been a while. When I've had pain my elbow and wanted to bench, I've laid down, grabbed the bar and felt out how it feels to put the weight on the joint. If there is like a stinging pain, I don't bench.

Got a couple of juicy delt veins that pop up, and in the right light you can see all sorts of ab definition (a tan would really help I'm horribly pale atm). I fill out my jeans in ways that make me a little uncomfortable and friends and strangers alike seem to think I'm in good shape or even athletic (lol). The 100 kilos thing only applies if you are 6'4''+ so don't worry about it. Merry Christmas.

Did 3x10 88 lbs standing overhead press in the work gym before heading home after getting off early, just to kill some time until the buss was near. It was alright.

Been going to the work gym to do a bunch of clean and press, and/or standing overhead press, on breaks. Union type job with long breaks. The only problem is that the ceiling is too low, so I have to be careful not to slam the bar into the lights.

This guy occupies the ONLY power rack we have in this Golds. 3 Squat racks, 1 power rack. Yeah, like, go talk to management about that, or talk to him directly. Do not film him, talk to him respectfully but in a firm and commanding manner. You can do it.

The nazi dude wanted to show dominance, and you looked like the best target for that display. There is a difference tho, with how people interact with you. I'm 6'4'' but used to be kind of slumped over and skinnyfat. It's hard to describe, but there is a difference.

It's called the metric system, and some rounding. *also I bench at home on a lovely thing that can't support any more weight than that doverhog fucked around with this message at 16:24 on Feb 18, 2018 |

I do most of my exercising at home. As a thought experiment, could you guyes do 100 40kg kettlebell swings and 200 hindu squats, or 10x10x62kg bench press? I've not tried to see what my max lifts would be but sure they would be lower than you guys, just curious. I guess what im saying is i am bringing autonomous crossfit into the no crossfit zone, sorry...

Work gym got some new equipment, and could do some experiments on bench. It was the day after benching at home, on break, and didn't try very hard, meaning I stopped after, no failed reps. Can bench 176.37 lbs, gonna try for a real one rep max next week if possible, and I guess need to get someone to spot too.

Had to dump plates to the side at work after benching on coffee break without a spotter, apparently everyone on the floor below drinking coffee on break heard the crash. Oh well, at least knew to leave the lock clamps off.
