However, I guess like you- I could focus on hypertrophy, clean the diet up and just do a slow cut for two months or so while it heals up? At least it'll "look" like I'm using baby weight because of a caloric deficit rather than my old ass acting my age

That was the route I took. Unfortunately I never got back to going heavy on deadlifts. The fear of that injury reoccuring has kept me on my toes. It was a terrible 6months. Some days agonizing pain, had to have the girl tie my shoes lmao. So hopefully your pain wasnt as bad as mine and you have an easier recovery time.

So wearing her panties is frowned upon??? Can't a guy just like to feel how silky that shit is against my junk? Make fun of me all you want about wearing gloves, but you leave the panties out of this!

Just to paint a better picture for you, she just got out of a convent and I've been celibate the majority of my life. Give us a break, we are in the process of trying to figure out this sex thing together. Also, I just started lifting weights because I got tired of being picked on and having my ass kicked, my entire life, by big mean guys. The least you could do is be supportive that my chump, pussy ass is stretching these 5 pound bands and getting swole before I go home and touch my girls secret no-no place.

How about people who claim a rack and then spend 15 minutes stretching before they use it.

These two guys had me crazy frustrated yesterday. Both small, no legs. The one had all the gear to look like he lifted an shit like knee sleeves and all that jazz. They were on the super squat piece of equipment facing outwards. Didn't see a proper rep the entire 5 sets they were doing (I was waiting to get on this piece that's why I know). Would only go half way down (120 degree angle rather than a 90). Guy who had the sleeves just kept stacking on the 45s, had 5 each side eventually at which point he had to put the sleeves on....... Which for the super squat is impressive weight *WITH PROPER FORM!!!*. And I could tell the guy with the sleeves was bragging to the smaller of the two small guys about the weight, telling him "you'll get there just have to train hard" meanwhile this fuck bag doesn't even know what training hard means. I'm getting frustrated just thinking about it again.

*end rant*

I see these guys when I go on the weekend. I probably look like a bum as I keep covered up most of the time. I only have a set of straps for when my deadlifts go above 365, and a belt for squats that doesn't start getting used until my last warmup at 275lbs.

I have seen some crazy stuff in my time.

What the heck is a super squat?

Back problems SUCK, and they run in my family. My dad had two bad disks by 17, my grandfather has had a few different back surgeries. I threw out my back for the first time last year at 28, so I guess I've been lucky. Hard to act like a man with your girl when you have to climb out of the car like a 90 year old lady.

Guys who dress and prance around like tinkerbell while they work out. Most are totally jacked. I am like.. "WTF! did the roids destroy your balls?"

So today I actually slept a little later and didn't get into the gym until 5:00am. God it was crowded..or I'm just used to my 3:00am workouts.

But if you can't set the weights down with proper control...then you shouldn't be attempting to lift them in the first place!!!! You look like an idiot letting shit just drop and the attention you garner isn't admiration. Plus you are only going to hurt yourself in the long term.

Okay...Rant Over.

3am? When the F do you sleep? haha

LOL...I don't. I can get a full 4 hours on a good night, but usually get 3-4 and I'm up.

Been that way my whole life. I have had sleep studies done...and the Dr. tells me I'm fine. I'm usually in bed by 10:30pm, but up right before 2:00am. And I feel like I have slept 10 hours at that point. Dr. said if I needed sleep, my body would let me know it. I haven't set an alarm in 20+ years.

My biggest issue is waiting on the sun to come up so I can get outside...especially through the weekends. During the week...I just go to work early!

Damn. I got 2 hours of sleep once on a road trip and the person I was with had to drive because I kept missing exits. If I went to the gym after that much sleep I'd probably drop everything. That's crazy.

Best feeling in the world.

Massive diarrhea after an epic cheat meal.

A while ago, I mentioned here about the idiots at my gym who insist on sitting in their damn cars with their headlights on blinding many of us in the gym. Last night I had a fool that did this and it was the worst out of all the numb nuts. I'm benching and the fool runs his car with his headlights on for a good 10 minutes. The headlights are aimed straight at the bench I'm using and are blinding me as I'm trying to knock off my sets.

I might have to stop being passive about this and walk over to the window and give the offenders the finger.

Why doesn't your gym buy those curtains that roll down to block out the sun? One of my gyms is on a high rise and they have those and when the sun hits directly- it is literally blinding.

Would work for your situation, cause ya know/ the sun > headlights.

Not sure. They're probably being cheap. The windows are very tall. I would say they're about 15 feet tall and start near the ground and go up. The wall where these windows are is about 50 feet in length maybe a bit more.

My new gym is relatively small. Theres this one guy who jumps rope in between sets of his entire workout..... So damn annoying, and he does it in a spot where everyone struggles to get around him. Fucking rude in my opinion, at least do it somewhere that you're out of the way.
