Are deadlifts considered crossfit since it's almost a full body exercise? I do them for time. Usually about 45 minutes, with a couple minutes between sets of 5/3/1...

It's on purpose according to Wendler. Just completed my first cycle. DL was the easiest for me, did 11 reps on 3+ set and 8 on 1+.

I'm on my 3rd cycle and it definitely gets harder, that last work set is supposed to make you want to die. I came close to PR on a couple things last week but no cigar.

Lol if you aren't taking at least 20-30 mg at once. I miss the warm opiate buzz, but not the constipation that comes with it. Not great to take on workout days either, but I'll be damned if it didn't make me an absolute speedy beast at work.

Be sure to superset it with oral roids, NSAIDs, and your liquor of choice for maximum hepatic effects

Yeah that poo poo is annoying. "What do you mean you don't drink??! You're no fun." Yes the only way to have fun is with alcohol. I'm glad I'm old with a career and a family so I don't have to deal with idiots like that anymore.

I get that from one of my old college friends. She's a couple of years younger than me, but she still thinks a good time consists of eating at one of three chain restaurants and then smoking and getting poo poo faced after. I would say bless her husband for putting up with it, but he's so absent from her and his kids lives because "work" that... Ugh.

I drink a couple of times a year, but that's it.

RIP this poo poo never gets better

Sure it does. I had it bad a few years ago, did PT at home, NSAIDS, and a cortisone injection. Never came back. And I'm over 40 :smug:

Tiny Lowtax posted:

When I was doing my medic clinicals a few years back we had this mid-50s woman come in. She was in good shape, and said she was having pain in her elbow. The Dr asked if she had been playing tennis recently, to which she replied yes, a few days ago. Dr told her it was tennis elbow and just to rest it, so she left.

Few hours later she was brought back into the hospital with CPR being performed. Turns out the elbow pain was just how her heart attack was presenting, and went into cardiac arrest shortly after she left the hospital. Oops.

Never seen an MI quite that weird, but did have a guy come in with his wife saying he had something stuck in his throat (they'd been eating at a nearby restaurant when it started). Nope, NSTEMI!

How are TRT clinics legal?

I feel this is almost like getting a medical marijuana card.

You're under the care of a licensed physician, and they're prescribing stuff that's backed up by lab testing and your reported symptoms. As long as your T levels are in normal range or so, they're good.

Hurt my back maybe deadlifting

If you're having boner problems because of a back injury, it's probably either nerve compression or muscle spasm causing issues. If I hurt my back and then started having sciatica and dick issues, I would go to a doctor. Just saying...

Never hurt my back, but we see tons of patients with low back pain.

I mean, as long as you're not pissing or making GBS threads yourself or have a numb crotch you can just rest and take some NSAIDS and see if that helps.

Drunk Driver Dad posted:

They have templates you can buy, but they have a basic ebook you can buy for around 30 bucks IIRC. It's really useful. It goes into all the science and little details and also has a chapter for if you're like me and still don't understand everything, it'll breakdown what exact macros you need, etc. My main issue atm is actually getting myself to cook regularly to begin with.

That still does not tell me what RP means. Role playing? Retro peritoneal?

I had surgery today and the doctor said I should reduce carb and fat intake a lot this first week of recovery

What am I supposed to eat?? I can probably cut down on carbs a lot by just going full carnivore and eating lots of meat and poo poo like bacon

Anyone got good ideas?

I would eat fewer carbs and fat?

What surgery did you have, a hysterectomy?
