Pump it up! Do it! posted:

I'm starting to get a bit fatter and I really wanna bulk for real but the problem is that I'm studying abroad in a country where there always is beach weather and I hang out a lot at the school pool with all the hot girls and don't wanna get fat.

That'll teach you to study abroad anywhere but Scandinavia.

Muggles can't distinguish gains. If you're lifting for girls then stay lean with a twinky six pack. Or go study someplace like American Samoa and embrace your bearmode gains.

Found an old training log of mine from ~5 years ago. Just loving poverty numbers.

I was so fastidious with my logs then. Also I'd leave little notes for myself: "If I was a trainer I'd hire a hot chick to hit on my client after a few weeks of work. $$$$"

I've done 2x cardio so far this week and it's only Wednesday, gonna have that sleek marathon runner physique any day now.

On a positive note - if you haven't read Marathon Investigation you should - it's entertaining. Dude analyzes people's Boston Marathon qualifying times vs. their BM finishing times and finds many, many instances of people cheating marathons. Good stuff if you enjoy a little schadenfreude.

What's a good squatting goal for a short, small man (5'8", 136lb)? I'm currently squatting 185 but I'm always wary of my knees (broken meniscus in both).

Bodyweight x 1.5 is a solid squat (204#?) and BWx2 (272#) is always impressive.

Dude, that's p low. Get that poo poo straightened out toot sweet.

Two minor updates:
I was feeling very vascular the other day:

I came out of the gym this morning and this jalopy wheezed past the front door:

Missing at least half the glass (and it was drizzling), spewing black smoke, with a small child and big dog in the back seat. The mom parked, gave the leash to this big-rear end dog to the kid, and walked into the dollar store while I stood there and gawped. I wasn't the only one, a little old lady was right next to me saying "That ain't right." She went over to talk to the girl, came back and said "She's filthy - will you call the cops?" So I did and that little old lady and I hung out in the parking lot until the cop came. Sad business all around.

Time posted:

I have recently gotten more serious about running and the leg accessory work on top of that is really beating my legs up and isn't sustainable long term.

I know that's it's become the most trite term in the industry but there really is something behind the idea of 'overtraining' and extensive running combined with heavy strength training is one way of getting there. Whether it's a lack of recovery time, repetitive motion injuries, or whatever - listen to your body first and foremost.

Staying healthy and losing a bit off your squat is 100x better for you than getting injured and losing both your squat and running progress.

You can do whatever you'd like to warm up. I still like to throw in a single very light set of 5 just as a way to 'remember' the movement.

The dumbbells in my gym are too small for me there's another new pair of 50kgs on the racks but still nothing heavier ffs.

Any tips for one arm rowing a barbell in a way that would massively inconvenience everyone around me? For a start I'd have to build some sort of platform to get the right height and range of motion.

Cable machine available? Set it low and pull with a handle attachment. Experiment with the height. Gonna need to plant yourself when it gets heavy for you.

I've got this issue with my squats and bench where I can do 10 reps at, for example, 105lb, but can barely finish 5 reps at 115lb, and I'm trying to break past that. Been stuck at the same super-low weights on those 2 exercises for a few weeks now.

Gonked myself in my mouth with a straight bar, a shitton of weight, and tricep push downs on a cable machine. Last set of the last weighted exercise of the day too.

Rolled out of my hands at extension, weights came crashing down, bar clipping my mouth as it went upwards. Scared the poo poo out of this little Asian lady doing lat pull downs.

Big chunk out of the inside of my lip, could've been worse. No broken skin on the outside where the knurling raked me.

I live in Minnesota and it's dark and cold half the year. A couple of years ago I got the idea to use artificial turf in my gym - I ordered a small piece and it performed great. Durable and enjoyable to be on, I pulled the trigger ($350 or so) and bought enough to do the entire area. Just finished installing it this weekend and I already love it.
