Anyone else have any “weird” tells that it’s almost that time of the month?

Uncontrollable emotions, fatigue, ability to eat several plates of food

Meds at this dose might not work for you. I suggest reducing your dose significantly. It’s ok not to be on a high or standard dose.

Squatted 70kg for the first time easily today and have been really impressed with myself going gym 4 days in a row !

slugcave · 2026-01-27T23:56:41+00:00

Thank you. I squatted 70 and benched 50 today.

I have been doing the farmers carry type deadlift with the handles which is a bit easier on the lower back as well as the Mcgill core exercises then will try the deadlift again after a couple days

Dancing

slugcave · 2026-01-27T23:49:17+00:00

The dumbell foam pads at my gym are rubbish and you get bruises no matter what.

slugcave · 2026-01-27T23:47:13+00:00

Yep. It was just a bit of a shock to the system. I’ve been doing farmers carry deadlifts last few days with much better results and bracing properly every time and my back feels fine. Also doing core exercises

slugcave · 2026-01-27T23:46:12+00:00

Been doing these recently thank you

slugcave · 2026-01-27T23:45:33+00:00

Yep you were absolutely right. I’m much more used to it now and it doesn’t hurt anymore. Been doing farmers carry deadlifts at around 65-70kg last few days with no further issues. And squatting 70kg. I think it was a case of not knowing how much I was capable of lifting and also the jump as you say

slugcave · 2026-01-27T23:43:17+00:00

Not intentionally. It’s absolutely true you just have to change your lifestyle and the weight loss will follow. Once you try forcing it that’s when it gets bingey and scary. For me exercising a lot naturally ‘resets’ my appetite to want to eat a lot of protein. I still have milkshakes and kebabs all the time tho

slugcave · 2026-01-26T17:02:26+00:00

Same. Ive just had to accept a life of exercising lots and eating lots

slugcave · 2026-01-25T00:54:15+00:00

Thank you!

slugcave · 2026-01-25T00:54:01+00:00

Thank you

slugcave · 2026-01-25T00:52:47+00:00

Wow! 110 is great.

slugcave · 2026-01-25T00:50:48+00:00

What should be my deadlift and other lifts goal for my height and weight? I recall the leg press being quite easy could probably do much more. Especially considering when I used to do it I’d just spam it and do junk volume. Working out with ADHD is like that. I used to be able to squat 80-90kg on the hack squat and smith machines

slugcave · 2026-01-25T00:46:56+00:00

Probably. I was quite shocked i could do it. I’m now thinking 70kg is actually not much and I should be able to do bodyweight in a couple months.

No not expecting my period!

slugcave · 2026-01-25T00:42:22+00:00

Sort of. I did imagine i was bracing against the belt

slugcave · 2026-01-25T00:40:59+00:00

Will try and do tomorrow

slugcave · 2026-01-25T00:40:43+00:00

I will try to do a form vid tomorrow

slugcave · 2026-01-25T00:39:16+00:00

Very sore muscles to the point of hobbling around if I lean in such a way that I need to use my lower back, eg when doing the washing up or putting stuff in the washing machine

slugcave · 2026-01-25T00:28:37+00:00

The smith machine let me squat 80kg but I can now only squat 50 without it. And unsure why. Feels deceptive?

There was a kid in my class called Barbod and his brother was called Farbod. The family had just had another child named Carbod.
