Ever Cut Yourself to Get Psyched Up?

I carry a cheap little Jennings .22 pistol to shoot myself through an appendage before major lifts… You know. Just a little shot from one of the weakest guns out there. I’m not over-zealous or masochistic or anything.

If you aim well you can miss the bone and barely hit muscle. I mean, it’s totally cool if you do it for a lift. This guy is just a poser though… He didn’t even lift anything after it:

if its come down to where you have to cut yourself to psych yourself up about lifting, maybe you need to think about the reasons you lift. If it’s superficial, like impressing a girl, or your bros, maybe its time to reconsider lifting. If you love lifting, you won’t need a fucking knife to drive you. seriously wtf.[/quote]

x2

Seriously. Shit.

I usually cut my jugular before a big ass lift. Seeing the blood spurt in the gym mirror with every heartbeat is pretty exhilarating.

HELL YEAH BRO! I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE!

stay away from my gym op

do you cut yourself before you wack off as well…

maybe you should try choking yourself with a belt to really get off.

never cut myself…

i felt hardcore

Pffft amateur. I use metal sandpaper to scrape my shins before I deadlift so it hurts more.

Cut yourself on purpose, so your body has to focus on healing the damage you did to yourself, instead of building muscle? Brilliant.[/quote]

You actually believe this?

Cutting yourself isn’t advised, but to suggest that doing to will cause your body to “focus” on healing such a small wound and therefore impeding gains is just silly.

I just eat Chipotle a few hours before lifting…then no need to cut…plenty of blood in my underwear already.[/quote]

“I just dont get it…it doesnt make any sense…why, if it makes you crap blood, WOULD YOU KEEP EATING!?”

“Dude, have you ever had chipotle? its really good.”

you can try wacking it before your proposed PR set.

don’t finish obviously. and stay in the stall until you calm down, that’d be gay as shit parading around the weight room with a boner.

plus u’re gonna want to bring gloves, even after you wash you’re hands before, you still risk getting the residue of lotion/oil/handsoap on the bar.

Wacking it? Pffft… Whack it with a hammer perhaps.

Real lifters don’t need to cut themselves, bleeding hemorrhoids is all they need!

Ahh yes I wish I could eat chipotle everyday but I cant afford the new underwears…

I think the smell of blood would do it for me more then actually cutting myself. Like roc said, the smell of blood is a huge psychological thing.[/quote]

Stab the guy doing curls in the squat rack, drip his blood in a bucket, and lift.
