STAY/GET BACK IN SHAPE VOL 3.0 -- A New Niketalk = A New Thread

[everysingletime]

The amount of money that can be had if you own one very successful physical therapy practice is pretty insane.

in all my years lifting, ive only had 2 what i consider srs injuries

shoulder..............which had me jacked up for like a month an a half...........i remember when i came back i benched 135 lbs an the fire my chest felt after that was insane i could not believe how weak i felt, few weeks later dat dere muscle memory came back an i was back

an i had a knee injury...........sprints at the track

took me off squats for the summer

neither one did i go see the doctor, im a stubborn bull i guess...........i went ham with cissus an animal flex

Popped my shoulder out playing basketball about a month ago and it is still messed up. While its nowhere near as bad as it was back then I can't bench my normal weight without pain. Might have to see a doctors soon, no health insurance though

i swear dat dere animal flex x cissus combo can bring the dead back to life [emoji]128514[/emoji]

Never had a serious injury lifting (knock on wood please) but I've had a few playing sports


Torn ACL (basketball)
Separated AC joint (shoulder injury - basketball again)
Broken hand (basketball)
Torn hip flexor (not basketball, but was doing sprinting drills )

Recovering from the torn ACL sucked the soul out of me.

Recovering from the torn hip flexor was very weird. I treated it conservatively. I could jog and squat after a couple months but was scared to sprint all out for a yr

Al Audi did you get a chance to check the profile of JYM protein?

yea its a decent blend

i personally dont use casein, have not in a very long time

you stated you wanted it before bed, so if that helps you cool

Good looking out

This whole non-dairy thing is rough at times. But clear skin and no stomach aches makes up for the food.....most of the time.

If you arent lactose intolerant an isolate or high quality blend should suit you fine. Crappy protein and gainer used to screw my stomach up too.

Thx for the advice fam, but I've given up dairy, not just lactose. One of the main reason I gave up dairy is bc of acne. Not a good look for my 20s. It's not the lactose that causes it. Gave it up 2 months ago, acne gone. I've cheated a few times, and it's straight stomach poisoning for like 3 hrs :x. Im done with dairy for a while, body doesn't lie. Beyond the skin it's forcing me to eat healthier.

No more late night entire carton of ice cream binges

Its just a shi*** protein imo. Its more of a meal replacement than lean protein. I buy protein for the..... protein. Syntha 6 is 47% protein by weight. So youre paying $xx for a tub, and only 47% of that powder is actually protein. Furthermore, I'm trying to figure out what portion of that 47% is even whey. From what I know, youd need more than 22gs of a whey concentrate/blend to yield 10gs of EAAs and 5gs of BCAAs, so the numbers dont add up.

Hit 185x5x3 and 200x1 on strict OHP today. Both PRs.

Good day gentlemen

Physical Therapy if you want to make a living and open your own practice. PT school is tough. Like mini-med school.

The others have shorter routes but you have to hustle, it's an industry that will never go away but it's also swing or miss. In America there will always be people trying to get fit, people that get hurt trying to get fit...etc vicious cycle. Good luck. Not a bad path. Do something you love.

Thanks guys. Will definitely look into it

Yessir. Chasing that bodyweight PR now. Something about putting weight over your head just feels badass.

Its crazy how 5 pounds on certain lifts can make a huge difference. I hit 195 with relative ease and the 200 was a grinder.

So true 

today is shoulders day and am shooting for 2 working sets at 135 for 4-5 reps.  I am 185lbs and have just started really trying to get my overhead barbell press down.  If i ever could hit my body weight id be ecstatic

Thats awesome man. Im admittedly terrible at OHP. Need to put some real work into them to get better.

I feel the same way about deadlifts. Afterwards and the next day they usually have me feeling primal as hell lol.

It takes awhile to progress on OHP, partially because of the muscles involved and you gotta have good form. Squeeze them cheeks lol

Omar has a good video on it.

DLs always make me feel alpha as well.
