Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
A little sparring with a young kid, high school I think, quick hands… you ever get hit so much in the face that your only thought is, “I’m so happy this kid keeps his gear clean and showers.”
Some dudes and their gear are just sour. :pu Still some left arm issues though :gary |
Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
I hear you Greg, nothing smells like a hockey glove in your face. :pu
Hope the arm gets better. I just got back full time after 3 weeks out of the gym with the Plague. |
Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
Glad you’re feeling better Admiral! Fully recovered and running on all cylinders I hope :tu
I was talking to coach about people’s hygiene and equipment care. He said some fighters use the lack of hygiene as a tactic. :gary:pu I hope I’m not one of those smelly dudes. |

No one pumping iron no longer?
I have been without a personal trainer for a good year now. Sucks, but good on the wallet. Went back to doing 2 muscle groups a workout (30-40 min) and 15 in sauna at 175. I go more often to make up for the shorter workout. Doing the whole body is ideal when someone is training you or you have the concentration to stay an hour or so in gym. I have neither. |
Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
I'm still in the gym 5-6 days a week lifting. Things are different now. Not as heavy (although still outlifting most in the place). Intensity ramped up every workout with different methods (volume, shortened rest, super sets, drop sets, etc). I'll keep going until I can't.

Couple things killed my mojo (Covid, neck surgery). I’ve been wanting to get back into the gym, but was waiting for all the New Year’s resolutions peter out before signing back up.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
I'm going to try and frequent this thread to keep myself accountable. Played baseball in college and spent time in the gym daily, but was never a big muscle guy. Fast forward to now I've been gradually inching closer to 200 lbs over the last ten years. I'm 5'11 for reference. About 6 months ago I got up to 212 and had a mexico trip coming up and started hitting the gym 5 days a week on a lifting program that my wife's side gig promotes. Man I saw some nice results. But we ended up having to cancel the trip and I fell off the wagon. I'm sitting around 200 lbs again and am trying to get myself going again. Going to hit the same program because I was seeing good results. It's called Lift More and it's a mix of dumbell circuits, HIIT, and burnouts. First goal is to get back under 200 and hopefully closer to 190. I know with adding muscle I might not get there right away but that's fine. The scale doesn't tell the whole story.
We start today. |

My wife follows Vladislava Galagan on YouTube. She is good for inspirational videos to get one to work out.

Still going to the gym/training. Not as hard as I used to, 3 days a week down from 5 days a week. Taking a lot longer to recover than it used to. Not to many heavy weights in the gym so trying to keep up with the lighter faster guys is killing me. |
Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
Glad you're still hitting it, Greg. :bx

Two for two the last two days. It's amazing how the right workouts and routines make you feel solid after even a few days.
I know this might open a can of worms here but are you guys taking any supplements? I started creatine for the first time since high school. I read up on it a 6 months ago and found a lot of research saying it doesn't bloat you and really helps building muscle faster, and actually can help metabolism and cognitively. I have been taking it since I started really working out again 6 months ago and I do think it's helped build muscle and I actually feel less foggy and quicker mentally on the days I use it. Could be all mental but I think it's benefiting me. |
Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
I am using alpha joe coffee booster. It contains creatine, l-tyrosine and cocoa; mixed every morning with my coffee. Normal pre workout before hitting the mats and weights and a recovery eaa when I get home. Just started a collagen powder, don’t know how that will work.
Missed all last week due to overtime and laziness. Did a full body workout on Saturday to make up… what a nice sleep afterwards. |

I'm only doing a pre-workout at this time, I've used 'em all over the years but right now it's just that and good food.
