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

[sneeker]

I mean physically. I want my chest to go down. I want to flatten it out, not maintain larger pecks or build them. That can be a later time but right now I want it as small as possible after having moobs for so long.

just going to ask what specific routine are you going to do to achieve that.

 

[sneeker]

good lookin out, i was trying to figure out mathematics of safety height, the height of available bench(es) but it ends up being either too low or high



yea, it’s mostly an aversion to the exercise itself and as a result i haven’t ever really gotten acclimated/used to the movement thusly raising the possibility of failure even when not attempting a max/pr

well for me, by myself I wouldn't risk it. I'd rather put rails on the side if I'm going close to failure.

I’m literally just not isolating chest right now. My chest is still getting a workout but I’m not prioritizing hypertrophy in my chest or any chest isolation movements.

And I’m seeing the results. No bench. No chest press of any kind. Only push-ups in my burpees.

Keep the muscle down and keep burning fat is the plan.

oh got it. misread your message and got confused with how is it possible to flatten the chest when doing bench presses. you can backread. that's why I was asking.

Gotcha. Yeah when I was benching 1-2 times a week I could feel the progress in my chest.. I didn’t want it to grow so I stopped.

Any good sources for training/running shorts?

5-7 inch.

(Pause if needed)

 

[Tank Top Master]

Just get a spotter, or bench in the power rack with the safety bars if you dont have one.

Or be like Tank Top Master and do none of that and just don't drop the bar on yourself.

And knowing how to do the Roll of Shame and/or the Teeter-No Spotter helps.

I can't wear shorts that small.

I was unlucky enough to have worn them back in the day.

Can't train legs and not show em.

Synonymous with arms and letting the gun show out.

 

[tokes99]

thanks again for this! altho i could not really change the way i had the rails setup, arching my back (⏸) so that my chest meets the barbell definitely helped me lift more, hit a new pr!

this is why is rarely do a leg work.

 

[spizike231]

^ you got the base for it (pause) just gotta isolate and keep it in the regimen I think.

Anybody have those normatec compression leg sleeves? I seen a knock off brand available on Costco for like 5 bills and was thinking of purchasing.

 

[DonRafa]

there is no way those things are worth it. just get a theta gun or a knock off and it’s good for your whole body. $500+ to only recover your legs seems wild to me

I have the Normatec. Love them, I have had 7 knee surgeries so I have invested in crap like this. I have heard some of the lower end versions are good too. I got a good deal on the Normatec so I just went for it.

I got a massage gun and that thing is a God send.

I’ve just been hooping recently and my body has been going thru it. I can’t recover like I used to and my legs and lower back be screaming the morning after

It might be all hype but I’ve seen athletes swear by em. I’m obviously not an athlete but taking care of your body is priceless. The authentic ones cost like $700-1000.
