Why don't you just say **** it and do steroids?

The Batlord · 12-28-2019, 10:11 AM

So your previous experience with steroids was negative?

If a documentary told you to jump off a bridge would you do it?

If you're throwing out your back, you're overdoing it/using bad form and are better off not working out at all.

Iirc it's ideal to take about a 60 second breaks in between sets because it recharges you for the next set without losing out on the momentum of getting your blood running.

The way you describe your back as hurting as opposed to being sore for five days (long time even for soreness) tells me that you threw out your back, which ain't great for gains at all, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

Have you ever considered working with a personal trainer who can create a better workout regimen than the schlubs of MB?

Frownland do you lift or train at all?

After my ankle healed from a break I lifted at the gym to get back on track from the inactivity, but now I just do a core regimen every other day and carry **** for long distances to stay in shape.

I really recommend you the Athlean-X channel on YouTube, Mindy. He explains exercises very detailed and focuses a lot on how not to damage anything.
He also has a lot of very creative and useful new exercises or tweaks to existing ones I've never seen anywhere else.
Don't ignore this like you ignore all other advice here!
