The Official Gym & Fitness Thread

Oh, here we go again. The "squirrels" you had last time were clearly armadillos. You can tell by their nimbleness

 

Yeah but for that one lift at least she ain't hitting 365 from what i recall..

 

Got the new gym up and situated a couple weeks ago, just got around to taking picks. I love the higher ceiling, opens up a lot more exercise options, the old house had like 7ft ceiling lol. Even had space to mount a TV and make a little chill spot for myself lol. Just need a new heavy bag stand

 

fucking sick, ill post mine later

for those interested in cupping, i got a set off Amazon. comes with a little hand pump. i really don't do it that often anymore, but when you do everyone asks you about it. whats those marks?

 

"Went fishing, was attacked by a Giant Octopus."

It's all in the marketing.

 

Current blood work on 200mg/wk. Would like higher free but my last test was 309 total and 17 free... So I'll take it.

Lipid panel was damn near perfect, minus my HDL which is just a tad low. Hematocrit is at 54.2 so I'll probably need to start donating blood soon

 

That’s fucking nice

 

In-house sauna must be nice

 

Numbers look good, how long have you been on? How often do you pin?

 

Little over a month. I pin 100mg on Sunday and 100mg on Wednesday.

 

That's a good frequency

Just test?

Feeling any benefits yet?

 

Yep just test c. Feeling decent but not as good as the bigger cycle I did last year lol

 

Thanks bro!! It's been about 4yrs since I've been in a gym, idk if I'll ever go back lol

Yeah man it is!! One of the best investments I've ever made, only 1200$ from home depot. The health benefits from consistent use are great!!

 

I have a town house with no room. Luckily we do have one in the main pools bathrooms/showers though and no one ever uses. Think me and my girlfriend are the only ones who ever go in lol

 

I like how the dude who wont work out in his hot garage wants a sauna LOL

 

It's completely different. Working out in the heat like that is awful. You just sit in a sauna. I'll usually stretch in there too. Good health benefits for consistent use... not that I'm consistent with anything

 

Turn your entire garage into a sauna

 

Wouldn’t work. It’s a detached garage and it’s shared with 5 other garages. The walls don’t go all the way to the top

 

What magic health benefits?

I’m aiming to train for the Silver Rush 50 in Leadville. The course goes between 10,200ft and 12,800ft 4 times.
When you live at sea level and can’t train at altitude for a race like that they encourage crossclimitization by training in the heat and preferably slightly dehydrated (but don’t take that to a stupid level). The adaptions to heat are similar to that at altitude.

So working out in the heat can be good

 

I know how much you love research, so I'll let you find your medical studies on the benefits of daily sauna use
