I have both, gym and boobs
Of course it helps that she goes 5 times a week too...

 

Honestly, you're just gonna have to suck it up for the most part and let it heal. You don't want to push it before it's ready. I broke both bones and had a plate and 8 screws put in. Just make sure you do your rehab when you get the cast off. Grab a stress ball and squeeze the shit out of that thing to build your forearm strength back up. This is just a good excuse to build your legs up, I guess. Lol.

 

x2. My fiancée actually took my spot working at the gym when I graduated and got a big boy job, so I'm up there visiting her from time to time anyway.

I do see his point though. Working there, I ate, slept and breathed the gym. Now, I'm removed from the gossip and bullshit and can just get in, do my thing, and get out.

 

Similar to me..I do my thing at home so just me, my CDs, and my weights. I don't even let my cats in the room when lifting unless I'm doing dumbbells watching TV in the living room

 

Well gave in and signed up for the crossfit open was gona skip this year since iv been oly lifting for the last 8 weeks with no conditioning but well see how it goes, regional bound maybe, if not next year for sure.

First wod is 9min amrap
15 toes to bar
10 deadlifts 115
10 snatches 115
At 9 minutes transition to 1rm clean and jerk untill clock reaches 15minutes

Shuld be fun doing it saturday

 

But the majority of them are anoying dbags...ask me how i know lol

They realy shuld rename the kipping pullup, then all this flack would go away haha its just a style to quickly complete the task of going from locked out to chin over the bar, just in a different manner than a dead hang traditional pullup, theres 1000 ways to skin a cat

 

We shall hereby only refer to them as flopping pull-ups

 

just looks bad for rotary cuffs^

 

guess its not good to say I am going snowboarding in 2 weeks been saving for 2 years for the wife and I to go again, I 'll just have to take it really easy but not missing this trip dang it!

 

That's one thing i like about powerlifting, almost everyone is hella nice.

 

Grinds my gears!!! Would like to punch my screen

 

I have noticed that too. Biggest bastards in the gym and nothing but gentle giants. I would enjoy the gym a lot more if it was just an oly lifting and power lifting set up. Keep those bodybuilders else where

 

What about the aesthetics crew?

 

Nah you should be fine. I was back at work lifting furniture 2 days after surgery (wasn't a good idea...don't do it) and I was fishing 3 days after I got my cast off. My wrist and forearm were TINY and extremely weak. Could hardly hold the fishin rod for more than 5 or 6 minutes at a time without my hand tiring out.

Now when I'm doing anything that puts pressure on the wrist (bench press), I use wrist wraps. I still have random pains in my wrist, but the wraps help keep it stable and pain free for the most part.

 

I feel like they are the worst of all

 

Looks like a pic of zyzz

 

I am in the same boat. I have come to the point to where if there is no surf, its dark outside/raining or nothing else going on (i gave up drinking recently) then I will hit the gym. I still enjoy the challenge and lifting heavy shit. It will be apart of my life forever, but instead of preparing for life.....I need to start living every possible chance.

This year is about mental self improvement. Getting to a place where I am completely happy with every aspect of my life. I feel like I shadowed everything that I was unhappy with by going to the gym and killing myself physically.

I am sure at the end of the year, I will still be making better progress than 85% of the people at my gym just by leading an extremely active lifestyle with some gym thrown in there.

 

Brah...Haters gonna hate

That's cause it iyzz

 

Some days I just want to sit on the couch and play video games 10+ hours a day. Instead I'm cooking, eating, prepping, and lifting.

Only thing that keeps me going is dem gains....

 

3 rounds complete +15ttb, 155 clean and jerk
