No Crust Racing

Dunno if ball rolling is the answer for me. Ideally I just need the lower part of my pec to not be so full, could be fat too I guess? And the upper to be a bit firmer. For anyone doing incline, where are you feeling the burn? I'd almost say I feel my flat bench more in the tri's than chest specifically. Though I've always got a pump in the tits afterwards. So was thinking incline to even it out if that actually works.

Maybe that's why they've grown, as I switched back to sets of 8, but lighter. I just thought maybe lighter again but more reps might tighten everything up. I note that when tensed, my lower pec is very firm but my upper is quite soft by comparison.

I'm not looking to start a debate on whether you can really train upper and lower chest, but what I can say is that I've recently noticed my lower chest is getting a bit big and round for my liking. This is despite having lost a bit of weight recently. Time to incline the bench a bit or just lower weight and do more volume?

Nice deading. There's a good explanation of Rajab over in the motorsport section. Essentially it's just an "in" joke from some of the Wastelanders praising Rajab (the engine builder/performance workshop) for anything good that happens any time.

Nothing really to report back, he said it continues to feel slightly better to him but it will be hard for me to tell as I continue to inflame it with various house projects. Continue on as before. I might try and take a little break over xmas from gym and projects and rest it.

Nice work man, keep it up. EDIT: Realised this sounded contrived, my point being even with discomfort you had a god and got through it for the most part.

Slowly, physio says my back is feeling looser to him, a good thing, but because I'm using it so heavily lately with house projects etc it's hard to tell. I'd say the frequency of which I get the sharp debilitating stab has lessened somewhat. My glute medius strength has substantially improved through the band work he asked me to do which will help stabilise my pelvis. I'm seeing him again tomorrow so I'll have another update then. In the meantime I've just being doing regular bench, chins, dips and some calf raises and lunges to keep everything moving. Plus all the house project work.

Nice work mate.

That's one way to make some crackling cwutididthur

I lol'd

I hate that person too, my response is always something along the lines of "Well it's not important enough to you yet". I am no athlete and I will gym before I sit down to watch a movie or something, but that's just me as I enjoy some exercise. When it's important enough, it just takes up the time of something less important and it fits in no worries.

I'm slowly thinning on top, must be the governments fault.

Also: In a similar vain.

No nigga you just skinny.

No good, chin up and keep trying

Good news, hopefully sleeping better too?

Well you're certainly going about it all the right way. I'm ramping down a little at the moment as I just have too much else to do to spare the horespower so to speak. Building things, climbing around the roof, digging etc and still more to do. Giving me plenty of exercise right now. How's your back going?

I can't say I notice it visually. Just a touch leaner in a couple spots maybe. It could also just be a drop in muscle mass from being sick as arms feel smaller. All good though, I was looking to drop a couple kgs. Nice work on your DL by the way, only 15 or so kg behind all I could manage and you weigh a lot less so pound for pound much stronger.

Hah, no pics. I'll leave that to Birds

Gym'd last night, mixed back. Got to out 6 reps on the 3rd set of bench but crushed the pull ups, assuming due to weight loss, dips were oddly had though. Spent a good 90 mins in the roof the day before running cable and re-sealed the pergola which took about 4hrs on the weekend so back has had a bit of a flogging again. Physio this morning who says it's feeling better to him and I can start to use it a bit more though he noted it's getting plenty of use in my house project work already. Upped the resistance and reps on the glute medius band stretch, brutal lol like a corky in the butt cheek. Weighed 85.5kg this morning, normally I'm about 88. I actually don't mind this though as I was wanting to drop a few KG. It's weird though as I'm fully hydrated again but the weight did not return so it can't have been too much water weight.

Solid effort dude

Alive again. Picked up a gastro type bug and spent a lot of time hating life. Dropped 2-3kg, did not gym last night lol Back at work today, see how I feel tomorrow. The time spent lying down was good for my back but I need to get back into the phsyio movements now.

Maybe when I was doing the 116 reps, but not a chance at the moment. Lack of core drive from my back has had a notable impact. I was doing 100s easy before 8/8/8 but a weaker back and a little time off has dropped 1-2 reps off that 3rd set, so no chance of making that 130-140 now. Either way, not fussed, have never cared about 1RMs for myself, love to see people hit their goals though.
