Sarcopenia Cure

It is a bit of a bastard when it comes to likes. Good to see you!

I can summarize mine for you, so you don’t have to spend a bunch of time on it. Still doing a bunch of junk volume and cardio. No progress made. No progress expected. :joy:

I have never seen a set of Zerchers I thought would be fun.

However, paused Zerchers? Now that sounds like a party. :joy:

@DaCharmingAlbino Good workout!

@shaneinga

That should be an axiom of the weight room. I am not sure what a reverse skull crusher is. Though I think I can visualize it.

Reverse Skull Crusher: I put the axle with the 25lb bumpers on the floor and do pushups to my forehead, trying to use only my triceps..

Bought a rubber landmine dealie-bob for the end of my bar so I can do one-arm rows/presses and lunges.

Need an ab wheel and a jump rope next.

Then I start adding to the weight pile.

I struggle with this problem too! I don’t have a lot of time to check in during the week, so I run out of ā€œlikesā€ every weekend. I hate not being able to hand out all the Iikes that everyone deserves!!

Also, sending you and your wife lots of hugs and prayers.

I am so sorry to hear this my friend. She is now at peace and not suffering in any way. I have been praying for you for a while now and will continue to do so. Please let me know if there is anything that I can do. Stay strong brother!

I’m sending you a great big hug and all the prayers I’ve got. It’s been a long road for her, but she’s now at home with Jesus and that is the ultimate goal for all of us. The pain of her loss is great, but take joy in knowing that she’s up there waiting for you, and until that time comes, you’ve got a special angel watching over you. God’s got her and He’s got you too. :heart: :folded_hands:
