No offense bro, but sometimes you say shit that just doesn’t make sense.:spank:

I’ve hit a weight loss plateau of about 220lbs (was 265). I eat more, I eat less, stay the same, so I guess exercise is what I need to get the rest off. When I was working out (out of highschool never went again) I was doing 10 sets of 10 @ 135. I notice you guys start light and work heavier with less reps.
I haven’t been to the GYM since 2006. Any suggestions on where to start? I think I’m gonna just pick up a Y membership.

If you are at a plateau, I’m sure a CKD diet will get you to lose more weight

Good luck! Finishing a marathon must be tits. Don’t overstrain your ankle tho if you’re still in physical therapy, jeez man.

Bro, I am all that is man. My fucking ankle is shot either way and I will have surgery on it after the marathon I think. However I already got approval from the doc that running the shit out of it isnt going to make it worse. Just slightly painful is all.

BUMP.
I benched 215 4x the other day 🙂
have a pretty good bench work out I do…
start with 25lbs on each side, increase it by ~10lbs on each side… do 5 reps each set…
My bench workout looked like this:
95lbs-10x
115lbs-8x
135lbs-6x
155lbs-5x
175lbs-5x
195lbs-5x
215lbs-4x- cheating a bit on the last 2 because i’m a weakling.
ALSO:
For a shoulder/upperback workout
throw this excersise in…about 10 reps each set of actual lifting you do:[http://www.intensemuscle.com/6997-ho...o-90-time.html](http://www.intensemuscle.com/6997-ho...o-90-time.html)
P.S. I’m all out of N.O explode…and Whey protien…can anyone suggest a good store to get these at with good prices?
thanks

Probably made from rat shit. A wal-mart nutritional supplement is just plain terrifying.
One thing dawned on me the other day about my weight: When I quit coffee my weight jumped from a stable 185 to 200 pounds in a week and stayed there. (I went from 5-10 cups a day to none.) I also totally lost my apetite in the morning. I used to get out of bed hungry and go make eggs and bacon and toast. Now I hardly eat anything for breakfast and I have no appetite until like 10am. I’m going to start forcing myself to eat bigger breakfasts again.

well if u look at planche pushups, they are using all of ur body weight concentrated on a small area, regular pushups, the weight is distributed rather evenly throughout ur body, maybe i just didnt explain well enough
