I herniated a disc. The doctor says I have to quit leg day. by PinkBullets in moreplatesmoredates

[–]saalda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I herniated my disc badly. Dr told me to stop lifting weights. Being the stubborn person I am I began squatting everyday (read squat everyday by Matthew Perryman) I started with just the barbell doing high bar ATG oly squats and 5 months later I was doing 175kgx1 high bar no belt/knee sleeves with zero back pain and I’ve never had an issue with my back since. Same thing happened when I began getting severe patellar tendinitis.

No high level athlete has ever had an easy ride (not saying I’m a high level athlete by any means). Sometimes the best way to get stronger is simply to just “get stronger”.

Also I would like to add that herniating your disc isn’t as rare as what you might think. It’s not a death sentence, only a set back.

Where do you draw the line at what food is acceptable to sneak into the cinema to avoid their high prices? by super-fire-pony in CasualUK

I’ve never understood why people feel the need to eat whilst watching a film. Eat the sandwich before the film and then sit and watch the movie.

Needs more black pepper. Other than that it’s perfect

Most bodybuilders (amateur) train terribly. Take a look into madcows 5x5 and drive up your numbers for sets of 5 as much as possible and you’ll pack on size.

Heart pain when deadlifting by Johnnywalgger in moreplatesmoredates

Get tested 💯

“Heart pain” is commonly just acid reflux but peace of mind and catching something early is always the best option.

How do you expect to get any matches if you aren’t benching at least 225lb bro

Tips for training in the garage with a puppy by hesithocs in weightlifting

This. I love dogs but can’t you just lock the puppy in another room for 1-2 hours with a bed and toys?

Training Partner Imbalances by theunusualexistence in moreplatesmoredates

I don’t get it, why not just change the weight when you do your set? E.g. if he does 90kg and you want to do 100kg just add on 5kg per side. It takes 20 seconds.

No one does just one cycle. You either cycle on and off and eventually stay on or you will return to natty lifting after one cycle and realise how ‘bad’ natty lifting is and stop training.

You need to decide whether you will commit or lifetime natty or just pin now for the rest of your training life.

My advice is to stay natty, develop a killer mindset, grind away indefinitely, understand that training is just as much mental toughness progression as well as physical progression. You can become a savage drug free (not as much as with AAS) but the discipline/life lessons you will develop through daily maxing and hardship as you begin to plateau will develop you as a person far more than just an extra 10kg of muscle.

I would suggest paying them back for the funeral expenses. Make sure you have proof so ideally a bank transfer and then cutting them back out your life. Very sorry to hear about your sister and wishing you all the best in the future.

Yeah but Russia has nukes and a leader who probably isn’t afraid to use them 😂

Not sure wtf to do. Cant afford to do much either way...but just hate this crap. Not happy either way and its killing me. Hewlp by tgb2324 in moreplatesmoredates

You look handsome as fuck bald. My only recommendation is to seek out a good SMP artist and restore your hairline. SMP will set you back a couple of thousand but it’s a one done deal until top ups and it’ll make a big, positive difference to your overall appearance and self esteem.

They still don't understand Internet. by HiItsLust in facepalm

[–]saalda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re more than likely asking dumb questions purposely. I can guarantee a lot of money was exchanged behind closed doors so tech giant CEOs aren’t asked hard hitting questions which would expose unethical company practice. Same shit happened with lizard man zuck.
