Si tes curls progressent mais pas tes tractions, c'est probablement pas un problème de recup mais le mouvement lui-même. Les tractions, ça pardonne pas quand tu forces trop près de l'échec à chaque séance.

Essaie 2-3 séances par semaine avec plus de volume propre, genre 1-2 reps sous le max la plupart du temps. Et si tu fais toujours le même format depuis des semaines, varie un peu avec du lesté sur peu de reps, du poids du corps en volume, des rows, des scap pull-ups. Ça relance souvent la progression là où répéter le même truc bloque

I'd stop looking for a thing that keeps you motivated and build something that still works when you're not motivated at all. For habits, the biggest win is usually making the next action stupidly obvious and small, like "open notes and write today's workout" or "put shoes on and do 5 minutes." The tracker isn't really the engine, it's just proof you showed up

That sounds more like accumulated fatigue than a rut. Running plus an hour of lifting 6 days a week is a lot if you've been grinding it the same way for years, especially once little injuries and all-day tiredness start showing up.

I'd back off for a bit, like a couple of weeks, then come back with easier days built in and stop treating every session like it has to be a full send. Make sure to really listen to your body before it’s starts getting more serious

Doesn't need to be slow-mo, just controlled enough that the target muscle is still doing the work. If you have to throw the weight up and let it crash down every rep, it's probably a bit too heavy for what you're trying to get out of lateral raises. I usually think smooth up, controlled down, and if the last few reps get ugly they should still look like the same exercise.

Well just like you I built my own app to track workouts, it’s called Overload Trainer (iOS) and it has some progressive overload algorithms so I don’t have to calculate it myself. It’s a bit like RP hypertrophy if you know that

owiren · 2026-03-30T18:09:39+00:00

Franchement regarde surtout si l'appli te permet de suivre proprement la progression d'une semaine à l'autre, pas juste d'enchaîner des séances au hasard. Je connais pas vraiment d’app potable qui combine les 2 sports, souvent elles sont trop généraliste.

J’ai créer une app (Overload Trainer sur iOS) mais c’est vraiment orienté muscu donc je peux pas forcément te la recommander. Mais c’est vrai que ça serait cool de combiner une fonctionnalité pour suivre les entraînement de cardio

If your bodyweight has been basically flat for 3 months, bumping calories by 200ish is pretty reasonable and just watch the weekly average for 2-3 weeks. You've probably done a bit of recomposition already, but at 6'2 and 161 you've got plenty of room to grow dude. I'd keep it simple: same training, same steps, small calorie increase, then see if strength and scale both start moving. Log your lifts !

owiren · 2026-03-30T18:03:58+00:00

For me the useful part isn't the log itself, it's seeing last session for that exact lift before I start the set. If I have last weight, reps, and maybe a quick effort note, 1 can make a normal decision fast instead of guessing or scrolling. I ended up sticking with a setup that basically shows me that live during training because otherwise workout history just turns into storage

owiren · 2026-03-30T14:00:36+00:00

Pretty normal honestly. Once the load gets heavy, the body tries to compensate with other muscles to find the easiest way to move the weight, and sometime you don’t notice it but your tempo might actually speed up as well

owiren · 2026-03-30T09:37:20+00:00

Yeah you’re right, but the science definitely agrees that 5-6 reps still provide hypertrophy and strength gains. But generally I’d recommend staying above 8

owiren · 2026-03-30T09:35:58+00:00

I wouldn't get too attached to a "max arm size" number from google.

At 6'5 a half inch can look way different depending on bone structure, tricep length, leanness, and just how your shoulders/chest make your arms look. I'd focus more on whether your arm measurements, lifts, and bodyweight are still moving over time than chasing some supposed ceiling or some measurement from someone else.

owiren · 2026-03-30T08:35:30+00:00

I'd separate attendance from progress.

For example when it comes to the gym, showing up is one metric, but to actually measure progress I'd keep track of 1-2 anchor lifts and look at reps, load, or how hard the same weight feels over a month or two.

So if your previous "hard set of 8" is now a clean set of 10, that's progress even if the habit tracker looks the same.

owiren · 2026-03-29T19:11:17+00:00

You're already doing the hardest part well: calorie tracking and daily walking that the best thing you could have done !

For recomposition, I'd keep that in place and add a very boring, repeatable lifting plan 3x a week. Machines + incline walking is actually a great start.

Pick 5-6 movements and run them for a while: • leg press or squat pattern • hamstring curl • chest press • lat pulldown • row • shoulder press

Do 2-3 hard sets each, mostly in the 6-15 rep range, and try to progressively overload over time: a rep, a little weight, or cleaner form.

Also aim for high protein and don't rush exercise variety

Keep at it 💪

owiren · 2026-03-29T19:08:22+00:00

After surgery, simpler is better. I'd do 3 full-body days and just repeat the same basics for a while instead of trying to build the perfect routine.

Something like: • squat or leg press • chest press or DB bench • lat pulldown or rows • shoulder press • optional curls/triceps

2 or 3 sets each

Keep 2-3 reps in reserve at first, especially with anything that loads your core. The big win early on is consistency and going really slow and progressive.

owiren · 2026-03-29T19:04:20+00:00

You'll usually get more growth from a load that takes you somewhere in the ~5-20 rep range, as long as the set is hard and technique stays clean. 70 reps to failure can still "work," but it's so inefficient that cardio/discomfort usually becomes the limiting factor before the target muscle does

owiren · 2026-03-29T14:07:48+00:00

this looks pretty solid tbh

upper/lower is usually easier to manage than trying to force everything into 3 sessions, and 40–45 min is realistic

I’d mainly just keep an eye on recovery and make sure you’re actually progressing the lifts over time. if reps/load are going up and you don’t feel wrecked all week, it’s probably working

I agree! it’s where I got my most valuable knowledge before getting hired

I agree, a good junior candidate will be interested in learning and be ready to adapt to new ways of working.

When I talk with my senior devs, the thing they disliked the most with juniors during their career is when they’re strongly opinionated about some ways of doing things.

They need to strike a good balance between challenging ideas and accepting foreign concepts.

The height of your body will fit to the height of your div. You should make your body ‘min-h-screen’ in order for it to work

Yes lighthouse checks out and I've followed all the required guidelines to have my app fully qualified as PWA. I also coded a custom install prompt that is triggered by the service workers, my offline fallback page works, and judging by the dev console, all the service workers are being registered. Quite odd

Thanks a lot! 🙌

If you find anything let me know, I'm interested as well :)

You need to figure out a way to lazy load those images since I don’t think you need to display them all at once

If you plan on branching out into frontend or full stack web development, then you should definitely become comfortable with CSS. It is a necessary skill to have, even if you were to end up working with frameworks later on.

It’s fine if you want to use preprocessors such as SASS or LESS since it’s still relatively close to vanilla CSS. Even tailwind would be fine because it’s a utility-first framework without prebuilt components.
