What Business is it of Yours Where I'm From, Friendo?

Go see Curtis masters at champion Chiro for ART. Also, bpc 157. 5 injections (out of 20) and holy shit do my injuries (sprained wrist and torn supraspinatus and subscapularus) feel way better.

How do you dislike a post? Shilling has to be against forum rules?

I have no idea what shilling or this injections stuff is lol. :fearful::fearful:

Anyway today was great !! For the first time in a really long time I was excited to go to the gym. All I had to do was wreak havoc on my shoulders like the good ol days :blush:

I did cable rear delt fly
4 sets of 50

Land mind presses for 3 sets of 15 and one set of ten adding weight each set

Seated DB presses ss Arnold press

Lateral raises ss with lateral raises SS lateral raises

Seated bb press

Face pulls

Underhand cable front raise

Triceps shit and I think that’s all .

I would type out weight but I’m just on my phone so no way in hell I want to do that lol.

I tried on my comic con costume and it was like motivation and my feelings instantly changed. Like hey ya I could enjoy bodybuilding again . I remember how to do it now . My diet is manageable . This could be fun :blush: .

Anyway I’m going to be black widow and she’s supposed to be sexy so I gotta month anyway lol. I’m 143 lbs in would prefer to be around 130 ish .

I realized this could be exciting because this is literally the most muscle I’ve ever had on me so to shed some of the fat could be pretty rewarding any way. My time powerlifting didn’t just lead to injuries after all I suppose :blush::blush:.

Not sure what the issue is, the Spockster mentioned pain and injuries etc. I recommended a health care practitioner I’ve used many times and been thrilled with. It makes me sad to be 3000km away from him so I can no longer get treated by him.

I also mentioned a (legal) peptide that I just started using (and love) that I learned about from a recent article on this site. . . not sure where the shill part is since I’m not receiving any sort of compensation from anyone I just threw out suggestions that might help.

nothing heavy but both my legs worked evenly and I don’t feel like I wanted to slice off my trap :smiley:

went in without a plan and just did kinda whatever was near me or whatever I felt like.
Plus tons of supersets which I like. Doing whatever and super setting everything is the reason I enjoy shoulder and back day so much so why not legs?
k
back tomorrow
almost my bday! This Friday wheeee

Because my boyfriend works basically every single day and we get very little time to be a couple and do ā€œcouple thingsā€ for my birthday (which he booked off) we are just going to do normal stuff together.
We are going to do a shoulder workout and he’s going to hang around while I go to the chiro and stand in line at the bank while I put my bday money in and cook supper and watch tv and stuff, yeah. LOL! I guess I am easy to please, but that’s honestly all I want.
Cant wait!!

Hi all, just checking in!

My workouts have been going really well!
It’s a lot of super sets, no rest, drop sets, partials, all of the place sorta stuff, and it’s hard for me to remember what I did so I haven’t been logging.

Started at 143lbs, and today I was at 141.2, so almost down 2lbs. :slight_smile:

Been doing tons of single leg stuff, even if I have to hold on to stuff so I don’t fall over it’s been feeling really good. My weak , do-nothing leg finally has to work.

Today I worked up to a 5rm on squats SS band glute activation work and BW hip circle squats and my top set was 185lbs x 5, so I am really happy with that. It was my first day I squatting in 8 days and there was very little pain so I’m really relieved. Felt good to go sorta heavy again and it’s good to know I can still do the stuff I love, just not excessively :D.

Already noticing small changes in the mirror so motivation is back up to 100% .

Been dieting officially for a month now, but its only been over the couple of days I really feel I have it dialed in. Probably wasn’t cutting enough the first couple weeks and I am still at a fairly high calorie intake, but gotta start high or there ain’t no where to go!!

workouts are going really well

3 leg days a week, one back bi day, one shoulder upper back day, one chest shoulder tri and one rest. cardio 4 x a week for 20 min each.

Feelin excited!!

Hello all.

Buenos dias

yesterday I weighed in at 137.6 lbs down 5.4lbs

I mean, I’m a ways away from where I was, but I’m already starting to get my old spark back. Really remembering what it felt like to not feel fat all day, lol.

Have a really exciting job interview this afternoon . I have a very good feeling about this, it could be everything I’ve hoped for for a really long time. !

I had to break up with my boyfriend, which has been tough. I don’t like the word dump because I think it’s mean. I had to end it because it was giving me excessive amounts of anxiety and depression. When we first got back together he quit drugs, he was working very hard on his drinking problems, he was working out and trying to improve himself mostly for me and my sake. Which doesn’t really work, you need to do it for yourself. He was sweet and caring and made me feel valuable. But the second his life started to get stressful again he turned to substances and shut me out and , blah, he just turned into a person that I didn’t know how to love anymore.

It’s not easy because sometimes you feel like you’re abandoning someone, but when that someone would rather be with booze than you it’s not something you should continue to keep in your life.
So far I am dealing with it okay. I made up a panic attack jar filled with ideas about what I should do if Im having a panic attack and I want to contact him.
Go for a walk
listen to music
take a bath
etc etc
just like random draw, IDK.
I also got this nature sounds ap I put on every time I don’t like my thoughts.
And I am writing in this journal book. Kinda like a memoir of all the things I wish I could say to him, but he’s too selfish to listen to me. Instead of arguing with him in my head all day I open the book and start writing .

And kinda like cue cards on my desk… I wrote out 20 of them and just shuffle through each day for a different positive note to read every time I walk by ā€œyou deserve betterā€ ā€œyou are strongā€ and whatnot.
Feel like the first time I’ve really taken a very active approach to mental health recovery instead of just crying and going to the gym .

I am sure a lot of people have dealt with loving someone or trying to build a life with someone who has substance abuse problems. It can be very hard to understand why you’re a human being yet less important than a beer. It can really impact your feelings of self worth and your self esteem. I don’t have to energy to live like that anymore. Too old I guess.

Anyway, I have a good friend who is pregnant with twins and she’s having a rough time so I am going to go over a few times this week and help her clean and gabe can play with her other son while her boyfriend is out of town. Need the distraction waiting to hear from work and getting over this guy. Need the positive vibes.

But ya this log is about lifting, so today was a rest day, lol.

Leg day tomorrow.

Wow! I’m loving the attitude and initiative, Spock! (I would say ā€˜Rock on!’, or maybe ā€˜You go girl!,’ but the voice in my head of my 20 y.o. daughter admonishing me to ā€˜stay in my lane’ is too strong to permit it.)

Bro, you sound healthy.

One admonishment - his drinking is a disease and it’s not that he prefers to drink to being with you, he doesn’t know how not to drink. He has to figure that out, you can’t do it for him and it’s not a reflection on you, so don’t take it that way.

Rock on girlfriend.

I hope things go well with the job interview. That could be a great thing for you. Additionally, helping your friend, helping anyone is a good way to lift your spirits. It adds purpose and a sense of community.

I’m sorry to hear things didn’t work out with your guy. I’m pretty sure you made the right call though. Although his substance abuse may be a disease, at some point I’d regard it like a drowning person. Detach or you can be dragged down as well. Cold? Perhaps but you have other people who depend on you.
