[Rabbi Yeshua Moon]

that's literally not true, growth occurs because of mechanical tension on a muscle.

God I wish I was less of a pussy and deadlifted more.

I always hit myself in the balls on the way up and my laziness just doesnt want to spend 10mins prepping the bar.

One day though I won't be so fat.

What if the bar falls from their back and they don't let go? what if they fall over with the bar on the neck? what if they get pinned and don't know how to bail? the problem is not tearing, the problem is general discoordination and clumsiness

Jesus I hope you're not a personal trainer or a physiotherapist, because you underestimate beginner lifters as if they have the IQ of a fucking tadpole.

a beginner doesn't have the strength or coordination to lift 45lbs over his head, specially those who are obese.

Obese people are literally stronger than skinny people. An obese beginner would definitely have enough strength to lift 45lbs over their head lmao.

hese things that move my body are getting in the way of moving my body!

in deed

they are meant to be used together.

and yet we can isolate them, odd; and they grow better by doing so, odd
obviously that when you push you use your hole body, but if you want bigger pecs you are better off making sure the limiting factor is the pec and not the tricep, since you don't care about triceps, you care about pecs. This is bodybuilding 101

beginner lifters as if they have the IQ of a fucking tadpole.

if they are black/hispanic/indian they probably do

Saw one of the early morning regulars break 400 on flat bench a few days ago and it was badass.

You guys are done with you summer cut...right?

As of last week, yup. Numbers finally started to drop a bit at the very end so I'm done for now.

Having actual problems going back to eating more, doing everything fasting for 8 weeks REALLY makes you notice the difference between fasting and not because it's a shitload easier to do everything fasting when you're used to it. Nutrition is weird. Might try to actually rework the higher calories around the same two-meal schedule I was using for the fast and see how that goes for a week or two.
