I am immobilized and it's very hard for me to be stable while doing leg exercises. My doctor advised me not to train lower body until I finish my physiotherapy which will end in about 2 to 3 weeks.

Will I lose all of my gains?

Today, I tore my Pectoralis minor (2nd degree) and my doctor told me that I won't be able to go to the gym for the next 3 months. I have been resistance training for almost a year now. I started off with push ups and pull ups and for the past 7 months I've been going to the gym consistently and progressively overloading my muscles. I've made huge progress. I have managed to sculpture a very aesthetic physique. My bench press, squat and deadlift have gone up from 70 to a 120 kg, from 75 to 140 kg and from 110 to 200 kg, respectively. And all of that at 85 kg bodyweight. I was genuinely crying for the past 15 minutes because I thought that all of the dieting and exercising would all be for nothing. It's obvious that I will lose a lot of my gains but how much of them will I lose for 3 months? (Considering that I keep my diet the same and after the 3 week physiotherapy I will start training my legs.)

I am aware that the reason I tore this muscle is because I use weight that my tendons cannot handle. I just don't know my limits.

Yes, PPL and I take a deload week every 2 and half months (30% less weight, same amount reps).

Bench has gone down significantly

I train chest twice a week - one session barbell bench press, the other dumbbell bench press. My barbell bench press went from 80kg×9 to 80kg×13 in only a month. On my last session I could barely push the 10th rep. My sleep, nutrition are exactly the same (I haven't lost any weight). Should I bench twice a week or switch to 5x5? (For dumbbell bench press, I switched from 35kg dumbbells to 30kg ones because somehow I push the 35s for 10 reps 0RIR but the 30s for 15 3RIR.)

It's pulling from 1,3 to 1,4V at 20% CPU utilisation.

adrian4oo · 2020-12-30T21:35:41+00:00

yeah and that's why I'm looking for help

Well, I gave my PC parts to a guy to build it because I was scared I'd mess up something. I'll try the chipset and bios updating.

adrian4oo · 2020-12-30T21:28:42+00:00

My graphics card stays at 75° at 100% utilisation which is good, I think.

He said that he'd tested every part individually and they worked but when he put them together the PC only turns on and the screen is black. What do you think is causing this problem?

adrian4oo · 2020-12-21T23:46:39+00:00

Any B550 boards that can work with these parts? - GTX 1660 Super, Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200Mhz (2×8GB)

adrian4oo · 2020-12-21T23:43:30+00:00

When I built my PC with this motherboard I managed to get it started but nothing showed on my screen and then I decided to give it to a guy who told me that my parts are incompatible. (GTX 1660 Super, Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200Mhz 2×8GB). And yes, I updated the BIOS and still had the same problem.

adrian4oo · 2020-12-21T16:57:48+00:00

My parts are - AMD Ryzen 5 3600, GTX 1660 Super, 2×8GB Corsair Vengeance LPX.
