cold as shit, gym was empty, only the hardcore go, and that is me.

I'm worried about my squat form. i'm just about done with the squat chapter of SS and its a fucking lot of information to take in AND I dont have a weightlifting buddy AND I don't trust the trainers at Gold's. One of them critiqued my form saying that it was too wide and that I should point my toes forward, which I know the latter is wrong, but I'm not sure about my width. still trying to feel it out per the SS suggestions.

I'm not lifting shit right now cuz I just got restarted so I don't wanna post a video cuz decaf's gonna laugh so hard the video will get 404'd off the youtubez T_T

@eshlow, got any clue after the hit to my head -> 1/4 of my head is numb?

@catch yes lifting is fun :D what do you listen to? i listen to mostly trance/hip hop if you want any suggestions.

@ilikestarcraft, anyone can, they just need to stretch and work on flexibility. but yeah i've always been a fairly flexible person, didn't take me long to be able to do a full front squat/overhead squat in my clean/snatch


There a certain distribution of the trigeminal that you lost sensation in?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Gray784.png


I'd say more or less the entire of the right half of my opthalamic area exactly.


Well, if you fucked up your opthalamic branch of the trigeminal branch you can test it out with a corneal reflex test. What you do is take something soft (a brush, small piece of smooth paper you roll up..etc) and have someone come in from your blind spot and touch it to your eye.

Whooo Maryland seems to have totally dodged this storm gg.

How are mushrooms in regards to the paleo diet? I freaking love mushrooms, and put them in basically everything I cook. However I was doing nutrition research lately and they don't really seem to have much of anything good for you in them. Just sort of empty fat/calories.
I admire your commitment to being *very* oily

third day of oly lifting today. it's really awesome and I love it but i am struggling with flexibility, especially with the snatch squat, can't really do it, hip/shoulder flexilibility needs a loooot of work. should have it down in a few more workouts I think. power cleaned +jerked 50kg today though, wasn't too stressful, getting the hang of the technique.

at this oly place however, most of them hardly ever do real snatches and cleans including the squatting part... they pretty much only focus on power snatches/power cleans and a bunch of other related exercises. since I'm entirely free to workout how i want there, I'm more inclined to do the actual whole movements and maybe use the power versions as more of a supplement. what do you guys think?

We got about 6 inches, if what's piled in my doorway is any indication. I woke up this morning wondering where all the snow was. Students here don't notice 8 inches enough for it to have an impact. Official school policy is something like 36 inches in 24 hours to cancel classes... and even then, we basically have the equipment/man power to take care of that much snow (clear roads, clear sidewalks) it's just that it costs the school so much money to keep the whole operation running around the clock that it's not worth it. We cancelled halfway through the day (around 11 am) once last year, and before that the last time was in the early 90's.

On a fitness related note, snow makes it hard to go grocery shopping. I need more vegetables, and I can't get to the store.

I've been trying to gain weight for a while now--and I've been going "hardcore" in eating extra for about three months now.

I started November at 158 pounds, 6 foot 3 inches, 18 years old. Even though I've eaten 4-5 big meals a day, MUCH more than I used to, I've actually lost weight. I run every day at least 4 miles, I try to bike 15 miles at least twice a week, I play tennis and soccer regularly, and I do a ton of push ups (with increased difficulty techniques), a bunch of squat exercises, and ab workouts at least every other day. I was doing all of this before I added extra calories to my diet.

So what is the problem? I've actually dropped to 150 pounds, sometimes even 148.

Even right after Christmas, where I had gorged on desserts all day for a week Somehow, by increasing my caloric intake, I'm losing weight. Is there something else I should do? Should I be eating less protein and more fat (even though I get a good portion of fat with every meal), or should I just give up and accept that I'm going to be an unhealthy looking skeleton for the rest of my life?

Do I need to hit the gym and lift big weights to bulk up, or is there something else I can do? I live about 40 minutes away from the closest gym, so going regularly isn't really an option.

EDIT: I live in Florida, it's 85 degrees with 98% humidity right now, so the snow isn't a problem

I already drink about 3/4ths of a gallon each day, will the extra 1/4 gallon make that much of a difference?

its possible that you just lost bodyfat due to all those cardio exercises. if you start SS or stronglift (or just add weightlifting of any kind to your exercise program) and keep eating like 5000kcal a day (with gomad), you might put on a lot of muscle quickly.
