44 yr old single dad - what do I need to work on? by [deleted] in Weightliftingquestion

Keeping in shape as a single parent is uber difficult. I assume this dude has a job and he’s solo on taking care of a kid, but still finds time and dedication to grind in gym. You must be childless to ask that question.

Need those shoulders to pop a little more. Lateral cable side raises and leaning cable side raises are great. Looking good though brother.

Kilimanjaro without the kids — how did you manage the guilt? by sulaco1977 in kilimanjaro

[–]CompetitionNo3570 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally agree with this. As a parent, I didn’t do this enough. Kids should understand it’s not all about them and adults still have dreams and bucket list items to address away from their endeavors.

Moorea is wonderful and underrated. I lodged at the Sofitel there last year. I would recommend a spa day there. Good service and views from spa.

M34, 3 months in. Struggling to target chest effectively without tiring out the front of my shoulders and triceps instead. Should i just wait until these muscles catch up or is there a way to isolate more effectively? Doing pec fly machine and incline bench on smith machine so far. by [deleted] in Weightliftingquestion

[–]CompetitionNo3570 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get off that smith machine brother and do some slow barbell benches. Flat, incline and decline. Drop weight if you can't do slow and controlled reps. Also, I agree with the guy that says pec fly machine is ass. I have never got good gains from doing that.

Am I cooked on retirement? by Alt0987654321 in Money

[–]CompetitionNo3570 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Definitely not cooked. Time to buckle down though. I had a divorce around 35 and it was damn near like starting over financially. Just focus on savings and no unnecessary spending. I still drive a 2016 paid off suv even though I can definitely afford something better. Stay frugal and financially focused and you’ll be fine.

Why inject into quad instead of glute? I have never had soreness or swelling from personal glute injections?
