Thank you so much! I am going to give these exercises a go, and see how it plays out. It doesn't hurt all day long or anything, but I can certainly tell when I move the wrong way. I don't know how to describe the pain, it still feels strong, but when i do hurt it, it's kind of deep and stabby.

Okay, I know nobody here is a doctor, but wondering if anyone can give me some insight. I have shoulder pain, and I don't think it's a rotator cuff thing, when I read up on it, it said you would have trouble lifting above your head, or reaching up, not the case. I can lift a barbell easily, shoulder press is not a major problem...but I can't do a push up unless I tuck my arms in tight to my sides. I also could not do a lateral raise, that hurts like the dickens. I am wondering if some basic rehab is all I need, but I wish I knew exactly what it was that was hurt. The shoulder seems to have 400 muscle groups. Anything in here seem okay? There are some on here i couldn't do, because it's a lateral move.... http://orthoinfo.aaos.org/PDFs/Rehab_Shoulder_5.pdf

the one I bought had nothing else in it, but citric acid, which I'm guessing does something important. It took a bit to find out that didn't have a whole list of weirdness in it. The one I picked was a back of the shelf asian thing. Anyhoo, reason I ask is becuase of the saturated fat content, which i thought we'd all gotten over, and that coconut mlik/cream/oil etc, was actually a good fat now?

An interesting article, but skipping breakfast and eating a half a bar of dark chocolate doesn't sound anything like what the article is getting at.

Dude. This is NOT good.

Okay, what are people's thoughts on coconut cream? - the raw stuff, not the added sugar weird shit, just the stuff from the can when separated from the watery part. There seems to be a lot of outdated info on the google.

Nevermind kids. I think i figured it out. Whey isolates are best choice. http://www.supplementscanada.com/iso_sensation_93_ultimate_nutrition_6.6lb.html

Why would they say white rice is good, but quinoa is borderline toxic? Seems kind of ghey to me.

When I stopped drinking milk, my breakouts became a lot more manageable.

yeah, my gut is telling me a short, slow 1k around the block could do some good. I think i will give it a go. Besides, runners fix most things with duck tape no? sigh, could be worse, I could be benched with a fracture. focus on the positive!

I made these last night! I ground the oats in a coffee grinder first, added some milled flax seed, + a bit of greek yogurt. I did a tsp of cinnamon, because it's awesome. Voila! perfection. My 7 year old LOVED them. how odd is that!

I only went for an xray to make sure nothing major was done. I told her when it happened, that I had a 5k run on Sept 22, and I was concerned that I would not be okay for it, she said she could not see it being an issue, and that I would be fine for the race....I also told her that the weekend after that, I would be sprinting as a zombie in run for your lives, she also brushed that off with no concerns.

so.....I sprained my ankle, 3 weeks ago this Monday. I would like to say I was doing something awesome when this happened, but I was running up the stairs, skipping steps because I was in a hurry, and well, there you go. So, as far as sprains go, yes it was so painful when it happened I almost puked and passed out, but, i did not tear anything, or fracture anything. A minor bruise occurred, I did not require crutches to walk. I still have some minor swelling, some mobility issues - I am trying to do some gentle stretching to help this out. Tendons feel tight. I am doing some physio @ home, using some bands for some resistance, farmer walks with light weights on tippy toes, calf raises.... Here is my question, when I can i start running again? It does not hurt when I run, - I put my shoes on and ran in circles in my basement like the caged animal i feel like, and it did not feel uncomfortable. I would like to do 1 or 2km tonight, thinking that it may help me out, get the blood flowing, stretch things out, just a light run. thoughts?

I pulse, and only grind what i need, i also keep them in the freezer as whole seeds, and take them out as needed. make sense?
-
the box was already ground too, so that's something else I guess you are paying for. meh! I'm buying bulk and taking the risk.
-
Okay, I just to make sure I'm not mental. I buy flax seeds in bulk, and grind them in a coffee grinder, add to shakes. I got 400 million lbs for 98 cents. (exaggeration, but pretty close). The box of organic flax seeds, comparable in amount, is $10.99. Is the bulk just as good? the price difference is INSANE.

I am an asshole. I love to bake shit, bring it in the office and watch other people eat it. I don't push it on people, I leave it at the coffee station, and watch the wolves go at it. And I am a dam good cook. I don't know why I do it. It makes them happy, and strengthens my will power.

What song can you absolutely not stop listening to lately?

What are your intervals like? do you go full out, sprint like your life depends on it sort of thing? if that's the case, 3x a week may be too much. Sprints KILL me, i ache down to my bone marrow, but that's where I like to be, lol. I think I am the only person that likes DOMS. Bit of a nut case there.
