FUUUUCK... Going on 2.5 weeks out of commission due to a cold and now bronchitis and sinus infection.

Be sure to rest well, I had been pushing too hard the few weeks before getting sick and clearly it definitely took a toll.

holy crap..... ZMA + Melatonin =


best sleep I've had in years... started taking it together the other day, melatonin by itself didn't do anything thought I would combine them... thanks for recommendation Halogod
and it's a heavy sleep too but not to the point where you feel tired and drowsy when you wake up, you actually wake up energized too..
fck I wonder how long it will last though, hopefully my body doesn't get to used to it to the point of it not being effective anymore, light sleep has been draining me for years

I touch my chest. I'm sure you don't have to touch every rep to stimulate growth but there's nothing more annoying than someone saying they bench xxx when they are really just doing partials.

I touch my chest every rep. It just feels unnatural to me to stop before that, like stopping before hitting the ground for a deadlift.

anyone here get back pain or was i right to laugh at him?

Did he also tell u he only goes half way because touching chest is dangerous? hehe

I'm just starting to work out again but I'm too lazy to think of routines and meals and everything.
I'm planning to buy Athlean-X. Has anyone done it or heard of it? It seems pretty legit because it doesn't guarantee any specific results - only that it will make you more athletic and lean. They're just exercises and tips to help you work out efficiently. I've been watching Athlean-X on youtube for about a month now and this Jeff Cavaliere knows what he's talking about. He has a legit degree and was the head physical therapist for the New York Mets a few years ago.
There's a $67 version and one with extras for $97. I think I might get the $97 if I can get someone to split with me. I'm gonna try to keep up with the meal plan for as long as I can haha
Let you guys know in about 3 months.

Saw a few reviews online and they seem pretty good as well
http://www.macnmotion.com/athleanx/2...eview-round-3/

Edit: In case I can't keep up with the protein, which protein brand do you guys recommend? After I saw the bodybuilding.com coupon I went to the site and saw that both Optimum 100% whey isolate/hydrolized whey are both low in fat (I just want to build muscle so no gainer for me). They both seem pretty good but I guess the hydrolized is a newer product? Anyone try it before?

Guys, I'm going to be in Nagoya for two weeks to start training for my work. They have a Gold's over there but I'm not sure if I'll have the time to commute there since my training will be 6 days a week for an average of 10 hours a day.

I need some ideas for some short but intense calisthenics for two weeks. Anyone have any ideas? Sprints? Push ups?

Thanks!

Started Kris Gethin's DTP program today because my routine was getting a bit stale and I needed something new to kick my ass. Day 1 legs + upper abs..jelly legs after and didn't have a great time walking down the stairs.

You could've saved that $97 if you spent that month doing some reading and learning on your own.

Sprints (especially up hill) and push ups are a great start. Throw in some lunges, tuck jumps, and burpees. And if you can find a park or playground nearby with some bars to do pullups and dips that would be even better.

It might be the angle, but it looks like you're going above parallel.

i'm jelly as fuck man... i'd shed a few pounds of muscle to be in japan anyday... working as a ALT?

I'm sure there are many other japanese chain gyms around the area.

having been a calisthenics guy for a good 3-4 years in the past, I got pretty ripped from doing a ton of weighted pushups.

Snake pushups - walking forward with hands while adding a pushup in the middle.

knee tucks - jumping up and bringing knees to chest

situps

pullups

All in 25 rep sets.

etc etc. If you need other exercises, hit me up with a pm.

But since you are in japan, I highly recommend taking advantage of the nation's respectable martial arts classes, a ton of world-reknowned instructors teach there. Just something different to experience other than going to the gym.
