rtalencar Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 I only have ~1 hour to exercise per day right now when what I want to do to get the kind of progress I'm shooting for (well, to get it more easily) would take closer to 2 or 3.

Morrigainz Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 *hugs* I'm sure it's nothing! Forgive me if it's TMI, but does it move around when you feel it, or does it seem "rooted"? Is it tender? Do you happen to drink a lot of diet soda, by chance?I just saw this Had it checked out, dr says it's a cyst. It's very small, and moves around with my skin. No soda here I rarely even drink regular anymore. Anyway she said we could do surgery and I'd have a scar, or I could live with it. I think I'll live with it. Quote Level ?

ETFnerd Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 Paleo in France is not easy, hoboy. Last night a friend asked what I wanted to eat for her party tonight. I said I'll eat anything but bread or sugar, though alcohol is ok cause it's the weekend. (I treat myself every couple Saturdays or so.) I also offered to bring a meat dish. So she goes, "Ok, we'll do pizza and chips. Don't worry about food." I thought she was kidding, because she knows I like to eat healthy. Then I asked today and she was serious. "I didn't get the link between pizza and bread." HEADDESK. I feel like a dick for being difficult, but last night she insisted on making sure that I'd have stuff to enjoy. So idk. Pounding back a steak and spinach before heading over now.maybe i'm just square... but i love it when women use this expression... hahaha...

You're right that workouts can be shortened, the added time is mostly for rest. I setup a challenge for myself to increase my 5RM working weights in Squats, Deadlifts, and Bench to 315, 365, and 225 respectively. I also, however, setup a goal to squat 225 for 25 reps, deadlift 315 for 20 reps, and bench 185 for 15 reps. I could train for both of those in the same day with adequate time, but I would want more time for rest and recovery between sets to do so.I am a big fan of circuit work, but it owuld make it much harder to train at my heaviest weights in that format.

I think I'll live with it.I've got a one or two of these, mostly really small, on my upper back and shoulders. I've had 2 get infected, one was lanced and drained, the other had to be cut out, it was like a marble of fat! I have a little scar on my back from that, like a stab wound, and a bit of a hollow in the muscle from where it was. But it's on my back, and I don't care, but then I'm a guy and it's more acceptable to have scars. Quote Battle Log - Facebook Link to comment
skip-tracer Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 Hurt my ankle in the process of losing at squash to my brother earlier. It really is an unreasonably brutal sport, I enjoy playing it but presumably only because I'm some kind of masochist. Quote Link to comment
