The Gym Topic

[Guest M12]

I'd say a diary is a pretty good way to chart/measure progress personally and Im against giving you too many pics for your homo wank bank.

P.S I actually went gym that night

[MARVELL]

9 to 5 dons. How do you stay motivated to hit gym? WHen do you hit the gym morning/evening? IT'S BLOODY HARD LADS. I'M mentally motivated but my body is just exhausted.

I actually need gym. It's like therapy to me. Certain times when I don't go I can't get a good nights sleep. Im the complete opposite to you though i feel mentally drained and want ro do something physical to counteract it. People have different routines, personally I prefer going

Home after work. Eating and jamming for an hour or two. Then hitting gym about 9-930pm. There's been times where cos of where I've been working I've had to go straight from work though and although I don't prefer that if it needs to be done I'll do it. Your head isn't always right though, sometimes I'll go in gym feeling like im literally about to fall asleep. Do the warmup and then be pumped or I'll be like yeah I'm fresh today gonna raise the bar and then go on to have a sh*t workout. Just gotta get yourself in the building. Once you're there the rest takes care of itself.

[Skenghis Khan]

mind over matter. you can take so much more than you think you can. Obv it depends on ur job a manual labourer is gonna have a harder time than someone who sits in an office. I used to do 10 hours on my feet and i would feel dead by the end of the night, then the lads would be like "Legs day, lets ave it" go to the cafe, chow down, wait for the gym to open and smash it.

[gattsu]

i feel like sh*t when i don't go i pysc myself up from when i wake up down a energy drink if needs must.

full blown addict

[Em Dott]

I hate not being able to go gym. I'm addicted to getting stronger. On top of that, people are noticing gains. At work, my girl and even her mum. The only thing that pisses me off with gym is how packed it is after 5/6. Either takes forever to do my workout or I can't do it properly because I'm pissed off.

[time_bomb]

im over 80kg now and its not good weight

[The Infamous]

the work thing is very peak literally effected my routine and I was seeing a noticeable difference. but like m12 said best thing is just to go home and take a hour or two off eat and go hit the weights

[UncleSimit]

Ten years later and this thread/site is still going lol.

Props

[Guest M12]

how many years you been cutting for brah?

i'm falling out of love with gym at the moment. had a week off come back and was itching to get back in. Now i just feel tired again. smh

Didn't realise the new protein prices come into effect Oct 1st....shoulda stocked up/hoarded

[Skenghis Khan]

m12 have you got goals you want to achieve? like achieve x amount of kg on a certain lift etc.

[Guest M12]

m12 have you got goals you want to achieve? like achieve x amount of kg on a certain lift etc.

Yeah.

I'm a bit of a pansy these days though. Back of my mind for next summer im looking to get stupid ripped, but at the same time I like lifting heavy stuff.

Chest at the moment I can bang 4x10 with 42kg dumbells.

Back dumbell rows im ding 42 3x8

Squat 120kg 3 x5.

My squat is v. weak compared to my other lifts, so need to get that up.

Hopefully for summer. Want to be moving the 50kg dumbells for reps in bench and dumbell rows and slap 20-30kg on my squat. All whilst maintaing di abs. Im 6ft3 and 90kg at the moment. If i can get up to about 95kg. I'll be happy.

[Skenghis Khan]

maybe commit to some strength goals and orienteer your training around hitting them, strength acquisition is fun mate.

and supplement with meat pies to bring ur squat up. #squats&pies.

[HangTheDJ]

Going Egypt 7 weeks tomorrow.

Beast mode time. Had a shocking weekend.

i just seen all the prices gone up

whats caused this

[Kurtis]

theyre not classed as food anymore so they get taxed differently

or something, i wasnt really paying attention when i heard about it

[Em Dott]

Ah f*ck. £50 for a tub of reflex instant whey.

Wish I knew about this, would have definitely hoarded a couple of them.

[Seymour Cake]
