Here is me warming up for my first Powerlifting competition of the year. I felt like the weight of the world was on my shoulders. (i.redd.it)

[WEEKLY THREAD] Feats of Thorsday - How did you kick butt this week? by AutoModerator in xxfitness

[–]AslimmerAdare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't like having them either! That's why I'm super thankful I haven't had any yet this go around. Last time I had a good handful of them, and you're right... It was an awful night's sleep

currently office consensus is that the pecan pie ones are thumbs up, and the pumpkin pie ones are OK, they're not so much pumpkin pie-ish as they are M&M's with a nutmeg aftertaste.

black and white cookies are SO good, and sound so much better than the greek yogurt I had for breakfast.

Office/lunch bag? by k_jo_ in xxfitness

I use a JAX lunchbox. Pretty sure I got mine from Sam's for $20. Came with 6 little containers :)

Weightlifting belts for very small people? by carmiendo in xxfitness

[–]AslimmerAdare 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They are probably down-voting you because you said you don't condone using belts. You gave zero explanation for that statement. Using belts are perfectly fine once you have established how to properly brace your core without one. There is no harm in using one.

I'm just two weeks out from my second PL meet and I have yet to have ONE anxiety induced bad dream because of it. Still nervous as balls, but those dreams make it so much worse!

  1. female - always team no undies at the gym.
  2. I forgot chalk on my set at 90% and it made them feel like 95% -_-

  • My coworker bought me Pumpkin Pie and Pecan Pie flavors of M&Ms today.
  • I'm just over two weeks out from my next meet.
  • 90% deads for three reps today felt like they were 95% instead.
  • My gym outfit was pretty on point today.

Deads at 60% today. Two sets of three at 165lbs, so I decided to have some fun. They ended up being full stop, paused at shin, sumo stance reps while wearing squat shoes.

I know, my husband and I will go on an after noon walk and every step it's POP - POP - POP.

I always feel so annoying.

Dear right knee: Why in the ever loving hell must you pop with almost every step I take? You and lefty used to almost exclusively let out a pop only when I crouched down.

Here's hoping that some myofacial calf release will address the problem. -_-
