Feel like I can finally post here. I haven’t “locked in” since my last deployment but I have for the past 4 months….finally. I went from 246lbs and I’m currently at 224lbs and in way better shape. I’ve been lifting 5 days a week, and cardio everyday. Eating healthy and high protein. Basically chicken/beef/rice for every meal. No sugar except the occasional ice cream cone with my family. A lot of water too. I probably could have lost more but I’m happy with the progress so far. I’ve lost over 3 inches on my waist and I can actually button my 888s now. All natural, no ozempic/peptides haha -
@Choko hell yeah brother! Lookin good keep it up! Home gym?
-
@WhiskeySandwich thanks man! Nope, just a local gym near my house. I like it a lot because it’s all old people so every machine or bench is always open
-
@Choko nice work

-
@Choko Holy shit!!! Back to @northsouthdenimguy 's post though - what biscuits (cookies) give you those guns?

I was recently looking at old photos and how I have changed from a 280lbs power lifting static monster in my 20s, switching to body builder type workouts and my best shape 240lbs in my 30s and then to a more healthy 200lbs from more training functional lifts currently at nearly 50.
My goals may change but will always enjoy throwing weight around.

Oatmeal creams pie by the dozen
But on a serious note about to spend the next 30 minutes or so with my physical therapist/massage therapist to work on my bicep tendinitis on my left arm. whatever I’m doing I’m probably doing incorrectly

-
@northsouthdenimguy I had bicep tendinitis recently and it was a bitch. I switched to supported single dumbbell curls over the back of my upright bench, bout 80 degrees, spammed lightweight side laying rotator cuff lifts and got rid of it after a month or so. Worked for me, everyone is different tho. Good luck with it man

Interesting I’ll have to look at that doing that
After my first session last week, I felt 100 times better. He really got after it today, though. Hoping it will feel even better.
I’m going to use my massage gun lightly this evening, working from my shoulder down through my bicep and forearm, and then put the TENS machine and cold pack after I’m done…

OK, I think Giles “might” even approve of these.
Looks tasty

@jdwaid I loved that gym. The atmosphere and comradery between the young and older experienced lifters was brilliant. Closed down many years ago unfortunately.
