EPTAlso, I want dimsum's gym. Anyone here who performs a deadlift over 40kg seems to think that it requires bumper plates to do so; there's only ONE oly platform in the whole place.

 Also, jumped my squat from 120 lbs to 135 cause I was doing it with another guy who was doing much higher. Didn't feel too bad since I was already doing 175 for reps before SS. It wasn't heavy but I was losing some speed on a few reps. It shouldn't be a big deal, right? Who said working out gives you an appetite? I feel sick every time rofl | ||

Who said working out gives you an appetite? I feel sick every time rofl Are you trying to mix it in water? It takes so much fluid to mix that that could be the problem. I have taken to just pouring a spoonful on my tongue and swallowingit with a few mouthfuls. Little gritty but no problems. Losing speed will happen. Keep pounding out those reps. As far as feeling sick... his soon before the lift do you eat, and what are you eating at that meal? | ||

Don't want to risk throwing food back up during the workout I just have some BCAA before heading off to the gym and sip on in throughout the workout. | ||

I find I feel worse fasted than when I eat 2 or 3 hours beforehand. Have you tried non-fasted? | ||

Not really an option for me atm since I'm trying IF and my community gym is full of retards in the afternoon & evening (it only has 1 squat rack so I need to go there early). | ||

@ffgenerations, did you look at the shopping lists in the OP? You might get some ideas from that. @phyre, the gym only looks that nice because the owner of my gym donated equipment there haha. http://www.dailytargum.com/2.4985/20k-of-weight-training-equipment-donated-to-u-1.1500043 | ||

I'm again giving losing weight a shot while working out a little more rigorously than usual. Two questions: 1) Sore muscles the next day - should I try ignoring the pain and still work out ot should I cool down and give myself a break every other day? The workout seems pretty inefficient, though, if I can't so it more often than thrice a week. 2) This is awkward... Is there a way to time the process of uneating (you know what I mean, don't make me say it) so it always occurs in the morning? Being at school, I use the facilities very reluctantly and I want to avoid it entirely. A mug of coffee doesn't always do the trick... | ||

A mug of coffee doesn't always do the trick... 1) I personally recommend you join the Starting Strength train!!  Everything you need is in the OP. After a while you won't be nearly as sore, the first few work outs are the worst. As a beginner you don't need to work out more than 3x a week, in fact, doing more than this is may be detrimental to your long term development.2) Dunno, maybe someone else has a method for regulating bathroom time. | ||

I live in Copenhagen, train (and work) at CrossFit Butcher's Lab and Garage :-) PR power clean today, 110 kg. Very solid lift, I think I can get 115 too. But that's for next time! Edit: Lower back is destroyed after PC and deadlift. Good thing it's weekend now. | ||

Diet affects digestive issues. | ||

Being at school, I use the facilities very reluctantly and I want to avoid it entirely. A mug of coffee doesn't always do the trick... 1) If something hurts, don't ignore it. But if it's just sore, it's no problem. You're very likely to be sore when starting something new at least in my experience. I started a new program recently, and atm I'm hella sore just about everywhere. It sucks (I walk funny and can't raise my arms lol) But I know it'll go away in a week or 2 at most; I don't delay my workouts for it. Also a 3-4x per week fullbody routine is right on the money for pretty much most lifters. Since you're asking this question, it's probably ideal for you too. Rest is super important. Take a look at Starting Strength, it's designed to bring all parts of you up to speed, conquer any weak links and just basically make you all-around stronger and bigger. No fluff, just a fullbody barbell workout 3x a week. 2) I think you just have to figure out how long it takes for you to digest the food that you eat via experiment. At least that's what I did. If it helps, I eat at noon, 3pm, 7pm and 10pm and uneat (cute word) every morning and occasionally evenings. | ||

I finished creating the rest of the sticky threads proposed by zatic in this thread for the new forum. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewpost.php?post_id=11078061 Since I have to maintain those I am not going to start any of the other specific threads unless the other members want me to. Remember, that you need to maintain threads that you start so..... feel free to rip any material from the OP of this thread if you need it (to start the SS thread for example) or any of my other posts. Additionally, feel free to request that other members help you out as well. I may create the bodyweight thread is there is some interest for that because that is my primary area of expertise. | ||
