I have to train all of my lifts in the 10+ %1RM rep range or I'll get progressively worse pain in my joints. I feel fine when I lift but the pain starts to develop as time goes on. Dropping the weight and training in "hypertrophy" range with much less weight solves it.
Whoever said all you need is good form is a fucking moron. Wait until you get 35+, kid. Don't tell me Rippletits lifts heavy at 60+ he looks like shit and you can see in his eyes he's hiding pain and he's had multiple injuries as well so fuck that logic.
Strength training is really bad for your joints guys. I'm only trying to warn you now so you don't wind up needing a hip or knee replacement at 50 like what happens to so many heavy lifters. Look at the evidence it shows you can build strength good enough and build big ass muscles lifting with high reps. What's more important is lifting this way is much easier on your joints and cartilage. These things wear out and when they're gone they're gone.
Don't fall for the delusional powerlifter based meme advice bullying the fit industry. They're not looking out for your best interest. Bottom line is listen to your body. If you feel good training heavy keep doing it but don't lie to yourself, not even for a minute. If you're in pain it's not manly or cool to push through it. You will look just as good and feel better training with less weight for more reps and equal volume or heck you may even feel confident increasing your volume this way since you're no longer in daily pain and fear of injury.

Who is /row/ here? I just finished my first full week of rowing every day. Why do I feel like I got hit by a car? My hammys feel like they've separated from my femur.

Tried my hand at the 500m sprint. Posted a 1:42 so I guess that's pretty decent eh? Post times.

World record is 1:14...is that the most attainable WR in athletics?

Have any of you guys ever done any sort of colon cleanse? Not sure if all these companies are just overselling but apparently there can be like hella shit backed up in your system and a full colon cleanse can make you lose up to 20 pounds.

Can anyone speak to this? What products did you take/use?

Afternoon chaps,

Anyone care to give me the pros and cons of using steroids? If I was to begin using them where would I get them from? And would I have to take anything else with them?

Let's say that I wanted to train for general athleticism and that I wanted to incorporate a combination of running, calisthenics and heavy weights.

Does this routine sound reasonable?


M-W-F -- heavy compounds in the gym. OHP, Bench, Squat, Deadlift, Rows and Lat Pulldowns.

Tues and Thursday -- Calisthenics and light plyo. Pushups, pullups, dips, bodyweight squats, dips and box jumps for dat dere explosive jump potential.

Mon, Tues, Thurs, Friday -- Running at least 10k per day, and on Wednesday doing some hard interval running to help develop some speed.

This plan sound reasonable? I wanted to keep the workouts simple so I couldn't fuck it up. Weightlifting for strength, calisthenics for some stamina and the running so my heart doesn't explode by 35 and for general stamina and ability.

Pic unrelated.
