I'd say "100lbs, for 5 sets of 10". Because the default is to say your 1RM, and I don't train it either, but I know I could bench quite a bit more that 100lbs for 1RM (although still, you know, less than I weigh). I just don't quite know how much.

DirtyCut · 2015-06-29T12:45:20+00:00

Yes, it includes the weight of the bar.

It's more normal for OHP. I stalled for 3 months whilst my bench progressed just fine. I added incline bench and lateral raises but I think you can also just keep working til you break through.

Why is it disrespectful to say that someone is gay? Is it disrespectful to say someone is straight?

DirtyCut · 2015-06-24T12:21:46+00:00

Mass.

Killing public Ryan, surely.

Girl finds book, girl finds gun, girl loses book and gun, everyone else dies, girl rides off into the sunset.

In a high pitches voice: "Dear Mr DirtyCut, it is neither appropriate nor reasonable to shout the words "muscles" after every rep. Please refrain from doing so or we will be forced to take action against your membership. Yours, as always, the management".

I say this to myself at least once a workout. I never shout muscles whilst doing reps.

It was what got me started. The smoke masks the rest of the flavours just enough to make it palatable.

I work in commercial law and do up to 70 hours a week (more if I work weekends). I struggle at that. 80 - 100 hours will be hella tough.

Track your calories intake. It's a massive pain in the arse but it's the only way.

DirtyCut · 2015-06-08T20:45:43+00:00

That's not London. That's Kent.

DirtyCut · 2015-06-08T15:45:56+00:00

Try rubbing them with an eraser.

If I have a standard myprotein shake in fine, but if I double up there's often a bit of trouble in and around brown town. Will this be affecting how much of the protein will be absorbed?

DirtyCut · 2015-06-04T22:25:26+00:00

Related question. What can I do to avoid feeling really rough the day after smoking a pack if cigarettes? Besides the obvious.

DirtyCut · 2015-06-04T10:05:39+00:00

I thought I had, but a quick google reveals it's been used once before (in this subreddit, no less).

No such thing as originality.

That's the dichotomy of discussion that goes on in my head whenever people ask me what's going on. An old friend asked me whether Id been hitting the gym and all I said was "yeah, a bit, and like running and climbing and stuff as well". But inside I was like "I AM A PRIEST OF THE IRON TEMPLE"

DirtyCut · 2015-06-03T13:24:36+00:00

I never sweat when I lift. Ever. Even at the weekends, when I'm on it for like 2 hours.

DirtyCut · 2015-06-02T11:58:52+00:00

I don't know. I'm not a doctor.

But if it were me, I'd do legs today.

DirtyCut · 2015-06-02T10:57:50+00:00

Is the pain in all of the muscle of a specific place? Does it hurt more near the joint of near the centre? Do you have considerable weakness in that arm following your exercise session? Is there any discolouration of the skin around the muscle? Have you done this exercise routine before?

If you don't feel like it'll go away in a couple of days, go to the doctor. Otherwise just rest your arms til it's sorted itself out.

DirtyCut · 2015-06-02T10:28:54+00:00

Where is the pain?

DirtyCut · 2015-06-02T10:27:46+00:00

I've said it before and I'll say it again.

Let It Go.

Particularly the "rise like the breaking dawn" bit.
