All in all not too shabby. Tweaked my back a lil bit warming up for snatches so didn't go quite as aggressive as I wanted to but smoked 110kg and 115kg then a close miss at 120kg behind. For clean and jerks opened with 130kg which I stupidly nearly lost forward out of the hole so basically had to re-front squat it but jerked it ez. 138kg much better clean but my shitty shoulder didn't cooperate on the jerk so took a small jump to 140kg with a solid if not laborful clean (my best front squat recently is only like 145kg lmao) then really threw it behind me so my shoulder would have to sit and it did, giving me a 255kg total @ 102kg. Still almost 60kg off my best but pretty happy considering I was building up from basically empty barbell 5 months ago after my rugby injuries.

great job on the meet and the numbers you pulled.

Bulk time?


Nah 102kg is my sweetspot. 109kg would be obnoxious and detrimental to rugby/cycling. Will focus on rugby/bikes a bit and start working towards the American Open Series 2 meet in september


RIP to my sweetspot. Either 98 or 110kg for me next year 🥲

this initial analysis is very cool. This half-healed//half-injured//chronic state is exactly the problem prolotherapy solves. Prolotherapy fractures tissues putting them back firmly back into a distinct healing mode. It is pretty sad the NA medical orthodoxy refuses to acknowledge the effectiveness of prolotherapy.

Sounds pretty interesting and promising but probably not a big enough body of science to push it into standard health care yet. Hopefully it continues to evolve into a useful treatment.


Although the mechanism of action of prolotherapy is not entirely clear, there have been many hypotheses proposed to help rationalize its effects. The general concept is that injectectates initiate a local inflammatory response that ultimately trigger a healing cascade. Release of cytokines and growth factors, such as platelet-derived growth factor, transforming growth factor β, epidermal growth factor, insulin-like growth factor, and connective tissue growth factor, promote proliferation of fibroblasts and deposition of collagen deposition, strengthening the joint and reducing pain.20,21,24

The most common prolotherapy solutions-hypertonic dextrose, DPG, and morrhuate sodium-are thought to function through different mechanisms. Hypertonic dextrose ruptures local cells via an osmotic gradient; DPG initiates local cellular irritation; and morrhuate sodium draws inflammatory mediators, leading to scarring of pathologic neovasculature.8 Other alternatives have been proposed, such as the administration of hypertonic dextrose causes the activation of inhibitory glycine receptors, thereby causing hyperpolarization and the reduction of nociceptive transmission.41 Ultimately, these injectates converge to form larger, stronger collagen fibers that increase joint stability and thus decrease pain.

Prolotherapy injections require the DR to fracture the injured area. This forces your body through a complete healing cycle. If the DR miscalculates where the original tissue fracture is the injections won't work. I battled tendonitis for 2 years to the point it was impacting typing and writing.

There is not enough "evidence" because its being intentionally avoided. Cortisone shots ain't going away.

Cortisone shots make too much money and the patient has to do nothing after it is administered. Recovery from prolotherapy requires too much work on the part of the patient. With a cortisone shot the patient does nothing. Maximum recovery from prolotherapy requires a carefully calculated in depth rehab plan.

All these variables make prolotherapy's effectiveness difficult to verify in a study. Orgs that sponsor studies want tangible results. Medical Sponsors do not want "well after spending $10M we're not sure". I had a great doctor and a great rehab plan that i stuck to religiously. It is hard to replicate that in a study.

I had medial and lateral epicondylitis. I went from having to limit my time typing at a keyboard for two years and zero sports all the way back to playing the catcher position in baseball.

It was not fun.

I totally get why Kawhi Leonard ghosted the San Antonio Spurs. We're tendonitis brothers...

Just finished up a brutal off season squat cycle and capped it off by working up to 195kg/430lb for my new max. Haven't hit 400 since Oct 2023, haven't hit 430lb since Sep 2020. There's been a lot of times I questioned if I'd ever move this kind of weight again between injuries / age / rugby / etc. but just kept grinding. Now I'm feeling stronger and fitter at 34 than I did at 29 even if I'm still a long way off my PR of 232kg. Back to work and adding as much strength as I can before we push for a rugby national championship in may 🤙

Welp, I think we've got enough evidence on the mechanics behind the benefits of TMG. I think TMG supplementation is a reasonable thing to do if your dietary sources of TMG are in order.


Take TMG (Betaine Anhydrous) in 1,000 mg to 2,000 mg daily doses. If you are considering TMG supplementation then pair it with choline, folate, or B12 for full methylation benefits. Like creatine...TMG is dirt cheap. Don't spend a lot of money.

TL;DR
#1. eat beets and shrimp
#2. TMG (Betaine Anhydrous) in 1,000 mg to 2,000 mg daily doses
-Ideally combined with choline or methylated B-vitamins (like B12 and folate)
-Capsule or powder form with no additives or artificial fillers
-Third-party tested or GMP-certified brands
#3 minimize or avoid nmn supplementation.

you should be paying ~$2/month for TMG supplements. 350g of powder is $20 @ 1.5g/day.

I changed up my diet recently into replacing seed oil with ghee, and more beef/chicken heavy meal.
in two months, I haven't done any exercise or gym recently, but it's getting more lean and more toned body shape.

Canadians are getting fatter.

Tim Horton's has the cure though. $6 Matcha Vanilla Ice Drinks and $3 Matcha Donuts. That's right folks $3 for a fucking doughnut!

Seriously though, if you want Matcha Tea go to Dr. Jason Fung's Pique Life.

Ghee is f*cking goated. It is so damn delicious and it’s way better than that silly alternative of spray oil or w/e
