Workout/Nutrition Help Thread

I don't touch chest neither do I lock out because it would realease the tension on the chest to rest. But the numbers on the bench will never lie to you I promise. A decent form rep is legit. I know there's a lot dumbasses that have bad form but I rarely see it on the bench press, see the squat depth, people go 1/4 down with 1/4 the weight can't handle. It's that ego but you have to start from scratch. Ask them to go ass to grass bet they can't.

 

If you're doing a specific sport people arent going to start a New Years resolution thread. And if you're doing it for a sport you already have a coach so they wouldn't ask for advice either.

This people want that aesthetic life and I'm showing them the way.

 

I guess motivating people and educating them to live a healthier life is always a good thing.

 

For nutrition, overall health, i strongly reccomend you guys eat organic and raw fruits, seeds, nuts, vegetables. Try to get algae's and herbs too. Drink lots of water. Meditate, keep your mind clear and be happy.

 

I ate organize for a week and felt a difference. Neurology health increased over 9000. That's expensive though.

Where do you buy organic at?

 

Yes organic is sadly very expensive. To me though, its not an option, i cant eat genetically motified, pesticide and perservitived filled, chemical filled processed foods. It kills me to see every one eat that as well.

I personally get my organic foods from whole foods, trader joe's also has a ok selection.

I just learned about this group, or organization called rawfully organic.

http://www.rawfullyorganic.com/

Its in houston and they supply organic foods, iv never participated ( hopefully i will soon ) so i don't know much about it and there for cant summarize how it works so if you'd like go ahead and check out there website.

 

You definately need to get stronger. We have another case of skinny fat. Not trying to shame you cause that's where I came from. You don't need thermogenic products. You need some creatine by beast and protein shake plus eating a lot. You need to concentrate at least on the bench press, pull ups, and squats. Just those three.

 

Started up insanity again a few days ago after a 5 month hiatus. Love handles started to creep back in so I had to do something. I forgot how hard this was all while maintaining good eating habits. Good luck to everyone.

 

I don't want to use the word bulk because some people might take it the wrong way and eat all kinds bad food. Just don't get to worried about diet at all. You can play with 10-20 lbs more, as long as you're lifting heavier.

Since you're a beginner you will be sore for about three days minimum. Concentrate on just those three lifts.

Mon- squats. legs to release testosterone
Wed. Back. Pull ups. You will sore ass fawk.
Fri. Chest- bench press. Nobody is bench pressing.


Once you become intermediate you can even hit all three the same day. Ounce you become a beast you will have to separate you're lifts again. Notice how I just concentrated on those three lifts. Feel free to add any other exercise that will compliment that body part. You can hit arms with chest for example.

 

How long was your thumb/hand immobilized? Did you rehab it?

 

It's all about compound lifts and eating a lean protein rich diet. Add a multivitamin and soem fish oil and you'll see results shortly.

Stick to squats, deadlift, bench press, rows, pullups/chinups and overhead military press and you'll be hitting all the big muscle groups really well.

 

I just joined planet fitness for $10 a month. Apparently it sucks but is sooo inexpensive.

 

Biggest issue is a sedentary job. Such a pain to either wake up early and hit the gym, or hit it after a long time.

Day 6 of p90x/insanity hybrid (pure cardio). Don't feel like doing it today

 

Maybe people need to stop "training" and going back to "working out." Everyone is training nowadays but when you ask what for....its just to look better.....which is just working out. Not saying that anyone in here did this but just had to vent.
