I like to start my day with a couple shots of rotella t 10w 30. Keeps all my joints lubricated.

 

yep, feels pretty f'n annoying, but it works!

 

are you serious? any harmful effects?


since diff fluid is almost 100% natural i actually take a shot 2-3 times a week but ith gives sulfury farts and the occasional fart bubble

 

BAHAHAHAHA WOW

 

Winning!

 

20 anything is pretty hard core. While deployed I was doing 20 rep squats for a working set. Every week I would throw 10lbs on. It worked good, but started hacking it. So I recently went back to straight up box squats.

I think 20 deadlifts would destroy me. I guess that's the point, right.

 

I was doing something similar to this earlier this year. It was 20 minutes fast/slow cardio and 5 exercises at 20 reps then repeat after a 10 min cardio session. Kicked my ass every time.

 

i was kiddin bout the diff fluid btw!


did arms and shoulders today and took a few pics since i worked out at home....i love my new found vascularity

also i advanced in a hiring process so im upping my cardio!

 

Did shoulders today....I hate shoulder workouts. They seem to "ache" more than any other muscle group......anybody else have this issue?

 

used to. work em slowly...or atleast i do and dont do a ROM that feels uncomfortable ( ive torn 2 rotator cuffs)

bicep days make my forarms ache

 

not bad...

IMO the intervals for the cardio are too long. ideally, avoiding the treadmill is ideal, only because it's simulated running, not real running. i'd also suggest some variation in the excercises.

not everything needs to be a power movement. also, in true crossfit one is performing against a clock. pre determind rest periods are not used. it's your overall time that counts and you work to beat that time each time you perform that routine.

often times people will set up a penatly for every minute that pases during the entire workout... like 5 burpees for every minute you spend working. it's great motivation to suck it up and finish before that last minute rolls around.

 

Me too bud....tore my right one back in 2002. And those steroid shots to the shoulder burn like Hell but really make it feel better. Due to the cuff issue, I still don't go as heavy & deep on bench press like I used to.

 

Shoulders???? I have the same issue.

 

i still do depp BP, but with military press and incline BP i NEVER go below parrallel and i cant do stuff behind my head

my shoulders have been one of my best growing parts....my bis on the other hand are a different story

 

ha ha ...no behind the neck stuff for me either (lat pulls, presses, etc). Wait till you're 40+ years old like me.......At this point in my life, with a bad shoulder & knee.....all I want is to maintain size, growth dosen't even seem like an option. Wish I could start over at about 20.....I'd do alot of shit different.

 

Ditto. Recently added some new movements to get that "rounded" look.
