Mortimer Posted April 16, 2021 Report Share Posted April 16, 2021 The weirdest DDOMS I ever got was abs from doing a sh*t ton of burpees and push ups of various varieties. Sure, my arms were sore but the abs part was kinda unexpected. I postulate that slow chin ups and pull ups actually tax your muscles more ^^ I find right side plank and left side plank more tiring then standard plank. I can do standard plank for like 2 min, but find 30 s / side problematic. Quote Link to comment

aramis Posted April 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2021 Yeah, but almost same amount of burpees destroy me.

aramis Posted April 27, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2021 Apr. 27th Can we count 12 hour workshift as a workout? ...no? Fair enough, half of this time I drove... But... after I drove 3 hours to deliver control panel from one of our machines for repair (and waited there several hours) I did 85 pushups in 15 minutes in the back of our cargo van. This should be enough to call a workout Quote I absolutely CAN run on caffeine and hatred. But only with a dash of milk. Challenges' status: Spoiler Not gonna Challenge anymore for now.

aramis Posted April 30, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 Life got hectic, no training for this week anymore. On Wednesday I barely dodged the bullet when I almost ripped off rear axle from my car. Looks like mechanic who was supposed to secure rusted axle mount two years ago did poorly. Thanks it was on low speed, this way I just hit the curb and went on the side. I don't even want to think what could happen on 100km/h+ speed on a motorway... Anyway, no injury, just old car damaged beyond reasonable repair. So... I'm hunting new one. Every day after work I drive around (luckily we have more than one car in family ) and check offers I find online. Because of this I'm taking sort of involuntary rest week... but first things first. Once I sort out car stuff, I'll get back to exercising. Quote I absolutely CAN run on caffeine and hatred. But only with a dash of milk.

Mortimer Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 Holy shit Aramis are you ok after the whole incident? Any sprains etc? Quote Link to comment
aramis Posted May 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2021 No, as I said - it happened at low speed. Absolutely no injury for me, but car is beyond repair and I'm in the process of getting a new one... which is so time-consuming I'm taking a break from anything else (incl. exercising and bike build). I should be done in couple days, so it won't be extensively long break. Quote I absolutely CAN run on caffeine and hatred. But only with a dash of milk.

Mortimer Posted May 3, 2021 Report Share Posted May 3, 2021 Okay glad to hear you're fine because I've heard of some accidents even though immediately there didn't seem to be any issue, but later driver realized he got some sprain, whip lash, slipped disc etc. Quote Link to comment
aramis Posted May 4, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 May the fourth (be with you) Headache isn't good for doing burpees. Did 70 anyway.

Mortimer Posted May 10, 2021 Report Share Posted May 10, 2021 Ouch eating is important! How's your new car coming along? Quote Link to comment
aramis Posted May 10, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2021 Quite good, thank you. I did all the reasonable "new-used car service" for now, so I think it won't be so time-consuming for a while. There are still some stuff to do (registration, A/C service, insurance), but that should go easier. And yeah, I need not to forget about eating. Last week I skipped dinner two days in a row and suddenly scale showed 75kg. I think it's because it finally got warmer (spring this year is extra super late...). Last summer/fall I ate around 3K kcal for stable weight, but in winter I needed to cut it to 2700ish to keep weight at same level. Maybe it's time to up my intake back Quote I absolutely CAN run on caffeine and hatred. But only with a dash of milk. Challenges' status: Spoiler Not gonna Challenge anymore for now.

Mortimer Posted May 10, 2021 Report Share Posted May 10, 2021 Check your activity as in steps/day. I have issues hitting 10k steps on workdays so I live with like <1400 cals/day =o Again I'm like 2/3rd your weight. Quote Link to comment

Mortimer Posted May 11, 2021 Report Share Posted May 11, 2021 Uhhh for some reason I can't do 15 min if push ups and Id rather try 15 min of burpees, but I'd still not like to do 15 min of burpees...lol. But yay for getting back on the exercise bandwagon =D 1 Quote Link to comment

Mortimer Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 Ah sore arm....imo it's a good time to brush up on your running skillz ? Or squatting skillz. I also got a sore arm and decided to devote the next day to running lol. 1 Quote Link to comment
aramis Posted May 14, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2021 Running? Maybe...? I was thinking KB deadlifts - this can be done with my arm (it hurts mostly when I raise elbow to shoulder level or higher). And maybe squats or stair climbing.
