I get pains in my wrist, sometimes it follows me to the gym and effects me chest pressing, i just put up with it now although some weeks im fine.
Why?
Edit: That grunting video is well funny, thats the most insane rule i have ever heard
The man in the end ended up taking them to court, I couldnt find the video. Only Americans would have such a thing.
No i haven't tried that although i did know it can help. I also get a stiff left elbow quite frequently off my gear so maybe i should get some fish oils down H&B.
Theres a new fitness shop where i live now, sells lots of supplements better than H&B, need to have a proper browse in their and see if there is anything worth picking up.
Fuck H&B most of there stuff is overpriced. I order some supps from bb.com because of the currency, it works out almost half price, if you patient enougth to wait up to 2 weeks to receive your order its worth it.
I also order fish oil, protein shakes from www.myprotein.co.uk as everything there is ridiculously cheap.
What shop has opened near you? A GNC?
Just Test E got another 4 weeks left, i think it only really kicked in on week 6-7. Im bumping up 2Kg's every week with the dumb bells should be chest pressing 40 Kg bells in a few weeks. Looking forward to it. Maybe its something else giving me stiff joints, i'l try the oil.
As for the shop, i have only seen it briefly and cant remember the name but i will get back to you on that.
It may just be a coincidence from the cold weather. Or simply growing pains.
If I was you I would buy elbow supports and especially knee supports, if I never had knee supports I think I would be in a wheel chair. Whilst picking up fish oil, get extra antioxidants, they will aid in joint pressure.
Yeah I get my stuff from there it's good value and as you say most of it is much cheaper than any of the things you find at H&B or places like that.
I'l buy some more stuff on the weekend and see how i get on.
I wish I spent years before looking around for cheaper products, it would have saved me a hell of alot of money.
well i used to! i REALLY need to go! i stopped since october because ive had music college auditions in nov and december, and in october i stopped because i had an opertion! but i miss it SO much. All my muscles feel really tight and unused!
I havent been in a little over a week though (too busy) - i feel like crying, im just dying to go so bad!
I don't weightlift although I do use some 2 kilo weights for my arms.
You know what I find gross, women with long hair who don't tie it back at the gym. (I go to an all women gym so no men to perve on sadly).
I really was hoping to have nailed 120k bench press by now but due to problems at home followed nicely by injury, I have taken a step backwards ! lol
They have an adjustable cable stack in one of the gyms I may use that as its basically free weights.. Can't wait to get back under a bar and SQUAT though!!!!!!
I've read so much and its a bit confusing tbh.
From what i understand the best course of action for putting on muscle and toning in general is to take protein about an hour before training then take creatine 20 mins before mixed with a sports drink (for carbs) and then just creatine about 20 mins after followed by protein again within an hour of finishing training?
Oh and HIT, i think just got your name haha, probably everyone else already knew but i didnt.. (High Intensity Training?)
so, never? just say it
I will start soon, because a friend has been to a monastery for a few days and his enlightenment really seems to be to go lifting. He said he def needs a partner for that.
His aunt pays the fees. Who am I to decline to that?
Luckily it's only 28 euros each semester, so it's ok.
you could've really told me a few months earlier!!
Luckily i have found a decent place to get supplements cheap as it can dent my wallet at times, got to train really hard now in time for the summer
I generally only go once a week - but it is exam period at the moment! ill probably start going 2 or 3 times a week after exams. But its cheap and Im not out of pocket even if i do only go once a week.
