I used to jump my rope right by the room with all of the classes on purpose. All that damn booty definitely gives your workouts a boost.Just finished another spin class this afternoon. I'm telling you bros nothing like a great workout plus staring at *** in yoga pants for an hour
Thanks. Stress is definitely something I deal with on a daily basis, unfortunately until I get a new job that's not going away. Not to come off as too stupid, but a functional medicine doctor is just a regular doctor right? or is there something specific I should be looking for.
I'll have to look into this, as far as wheat goes, I usually have just one piece of bread a day with my eggs for breakfast.

Our nervous systems crave complexity. Moving from open to closed kinetic chains would change their perception. Moving from basic to more complex closed kinetic chain movements would as well. For example, take someone that is bored doing towel pull ups and have them perform rope climbs, I guarantee they won't be bored. Why? More complexity. Sure there are other factors, but the main driver is complexity of movement, which increases motor unit activation, psychological stimulation, etc. As some recent scientists are talking about: our brains are designed to learn new movement patterns. That is the reason that we evolved such a large and well developed brain.
All I'm saying is that people need to break out of this bubble that is 'fitness' with 'reps and sets' and focusing on exercise being a medicine with a handful of tools only. I think you'll agree with this durden: movement is the end goal. Period. Here's a quick video I think you would like that discusses this:
You can lift, squat, bench all you want and never get their type of strength,agility and movement.
I hate when people say this
Just started realizing what this cross-fit thing is...its pretty cool. but are all the gyms expensive?
There's nothing stopping you from just doing the workout of the day on your own for time. Obviously you don't get the same team aspect.Just started realizing what this cross-fit thing is...its pretty cool. but are all the gyms expensive?

When you're sick you have to be careful. You're immune system is at its weakest, so you don't wanna make things worse and catch germs and sicknesses that others have in the gym. And trust me...theres LOTS OF germs in gyms :x
If i was you i would stretch, maybe do some push ups and maybe a nice walk around the park or something IF YOU REALLY WANT TO. Keep it simple. Don't punish your body when it's already suffering internally.
But personally, when Im sick i rest my body...try to fully recover, then go back to the gym feeling 110% ready to kill those weights.
how do i improve on my pullups? I can do 7-8 medium/close-ish grip pullups, but my gym also has a wide grip pullup bar, and i'd like to be able to do 5-7 of those in a row (it'd be a start).
thing is, i can't do a single one. there's a weight rack for it, but i've been stuck on 80 lbs of assist and can't seem to move forward (doing sets of 6, like 2-3 sets)
what do i do? should i keep on doing pullups on the wide grip with assist? should i do lat pulldown instead with more weight?
thanks
Ive started to incorporate deadlifts in my routine for two months now, has anyone ever experienced lower back stiffness after doing it? my lower back is always so sore after..:\

I finally had a good bench day today. Got 4 reps at 270 on my 3+ day. Did Paul Carter's 350 method for assistance. Got 23, 16, 11 reps at 135# on the incline.
Thanks, I'll try that next time I do deadliftsstarted with the same problem a few months ago, it means your form is a bit off. Position your ankles closer to the bar when you start and push through your heels. If you stand too far from the bar, you're putting more pressure on your front feet and thus, your lower back.
It just feels tight around the lower back, I figured it was normal so I usually do not do heavy weights as I focus on my form primarily.. It feels pretty stiff too after doing a couple of sets of 8-12 reps..What kind of sore? Spasm kind of sore? If so, then it's your form, but regardless, your back should be a bit sore and stiff if you're doing deadlifts. Nothing extreme, but it's still there and it's the soreness you feel from any type of muscle group that has been worked.
I used this recipe: http://www.skinnytaste.com/2012/12/slow-cooker-chicken-black-bean-tacos.htmlYo, i definitely wanna get a crock pot soon...Thought I'd share my food after killing arms.

Mind sharing your recipe with that chicken? What did you do just set it to bake for a while?
What kinds of other things do you make with it? Thanks in advance
